Installation
33. Remove the device from the solder station and continue to monitor IHS
Temperature with a handheld meter. Place the device under the microscope and
remove the three pieces of Kapton* tape with Tweezers, keeping the longest for
re-use.
34. Straighten the wire and work the wire in to the groove. Bend the thermocouple
over the IHS. Replace the long piece of Kapton* tape at the edge of the IHS.
Note: The wire needs to be straight so it doesn’t sit above the IHS surface at anytime (see
Figure 7-31).

35. Using a blade carefully shave the excess solder above the IHS surface. Only shave
in one direction until solder is flush with the groove surface (see Figure 7-32).

Note: Take usual precautions when using open blades
