Operation of AKTAKOM ASE-4502 rework station

1. Powering ON
   Rework station has two types of parameters that can be set: temperature and airflow.

2. Temperature setting
   In Standby mode ASE-4502 will display “--”, press “setup” once and the LCD will show temperature setting values.
   Adjust the value with “UP” or “DOWN” buttons to set your required temperature.
3. Airflow setting
   Press “setup” three times, the display will show “F”. Adjust the value with “UP” or “DOWN” buttons to set the value of the air pressure.

*Standby mode
Put the hot air gun on the holder, the temperature will start dropping down to 60°C and after that the station will enter the standby mode, the LCD will show “--“. At the same time the fan and the heating elements will turn off automatically. Pick up the hot air gun and the station will enter the normal working condition automatically.

*OFF
