  Information regarding Lead-Free (PbF) solder:

    Distinction of PbF PCB:

PCBs (manufactured) using lead free solder will have a          mark following 
the PCB part numbers in a label on the PCB.

    Caution:

  Pb free solder has a higher melting point than standard solder; typically 
  the melting point is 50 - 70  F (30 - 40  C) higher. Please use a soldering iron 
  with temperature control and adjust it to 700  20  F (370  10  C). Exercise care 
  while using higher temperature soldering irons, do not heat the PCB for too long 
  to prevent solder splash or damage to the PCB.
  Pb free solder will tend to splash when heated too high (about 1100  F/600  C).
  ECO SOLDER M705 (available from Senju Metal Industry Co., Ltd.: 

             URL: http://www.senju-m.co.jp) is recommended when repairing PbF PCBs.
