How do you solder connectors onto an Orion Revolution? I'm new to soldering and I don't know how to do it. I bought a soldering iron and I'm using the trinity no solders, but it won't fit and I just cut the connectors off of the no solder connectors. Please help!!!

solder right to the brush shunts (copper things around the brushes)



take the wires , and solder a little bit of Deans solder to them. then solder a little deans to the brush shunts.

then solder the two together.

I'm new to soldering and I don't know how to do it.

1. Allow iron to completely heat up (5+ minutes)
2. "Tin" everything. "Tin" means to coat lightly with solder.
3. With iron hot, wipe tip on damp sponge or paper towel.
4. Tin the iron's tip, touching the solder lightly to it. It should have a nice
shiny appearance.
5. Wipe the tip again and touch the solder to it and leave a small "blob" of
solder on it.
6. Touch the tip to the connector or terminal you are soldering too, allowing
it to heat up (2-3 seconds).
7. Touch the solder to the conn./term. and tin it.
8. Strip the wire and light twist the end.
9. Touch the iron to the wire, heat it, and tin it.
10. Now the actual soldering. Wipe the iron tip. Re-tin.
11. Heat the conn./term. (2-3 seconds)
12. Touch the wire to the heating connector.
13. Remove iron and hold wire till solder sets. (3-4 seconds.)
14. If solder joint is shiny, good job. You're done.

Remember: Hot iron. Tin everything. Heat work not wire. Practice.
