Set the soldering iron to 300 °C (575 °F) and wait for the iron to heat up to the desired temperature.

Depending on specifications of the soldering iron, it should take between 25-80 seconds for soldering iron to reach desired temperature.

The soldering iron tip will be very hot! Be careful when handling the soldering iron during operation.

Different solder may have different melting points. Refer to any documentation provided with your solder to determine the recommended temperature.

Avoid setting the soldering iron to very high temperatures and stay within your solder's specifications. Prolonged exposure to high temperatures can lead to component or board damage.
