The Weller WMRT Tweezers are designed for rework and
repair of precision SMT electronic devices. The desol-
dering tip set can be quickly and easily changed with-
out the use of tools. The tips are pre-aligned and addi-
tional alignment is not required. The integrated (2 X 40
W) heating elements ensure that the desoldering tip
temperature is reached very quickly and controlled pre-
cisely. The desoldering tweezers are switched off auto-
matically when placed in the WMRTH tool holder.
The Weller WMRT Tweezers may only be used with the
WD1M or WD2M series power units.

Place the desoldering tweezers ( 4 ) in the tool holder
and ensure that the hand piece is correctly seated in
the stand ( 1 ). Move all combustible objects away
from the tweezers and the work area. Insert the con-
nector ( 5 ) into the power supply receptacle and lock it
by turning clockwise. Turn the station’s power switch
“On” and set the desired temperature. When the tips
have reached the set temperature, tin both tweezer tips
with solder.

Desoldering tips must only be changed when cool. The
tip change does not require tools. The desoldering tip
cartridge is inserted into the front of the hand piece ( 4
). The 5-pin mini-plug on the back of the tip cartridge is
polarized for correct alignment with the hand piece. The
top of the tip cartridge is printed with L (Left) and R
(Right) indicators for proper orientation. The indicators
align with L and R indicators printed on the hand piece.
The tip cartridge ( 3 ) can be removed from the hand
piece by grasping the molded grips and pulling outward
to release.
IIm mppoorrttaanntt::
Always ensure that the desoldering tip is properly seat-
ed.
When installing a new desoldering tip cartridge, ensure
that the cartridge is inserted completely against the
stop in a single motion. Operation with a desoldering tip
that is not completely inserted can cause the tip car-
tridge to malfunction.
During initial heat up, tin the tips with solder. This
removes oxidation and contamination on the desolder-
ing tips. Before placing the tool in the holder, always
ensure that the desoldering tips are well tinned. Use of
an aggressive flux will possibly shorten tip life.
Always keep the cleaning sponge ( 2 ) damp. Use only
distilled or de-ionized water.
In addition to the informaton included in this manual,
please see the safety manual and the instructions for
the applicable power unit.
