Does this use standard T18 tips, if not what kind of tips does it use?

I have this soldering iron and I use genuine Hakko T18 tips also. The only difference between 900M and T18 tips is the overall width of the shank. T18 shanks are roughly 1.5 to 3 tenths of a mm wider, it depends on how much undersize the cheap tips are when you compare them. The 4mm hole on the cheap tips aren't all drilled to the same depth, so some will sit directly on the steel shaft that protrudes from the handle of the iron and surrounds the ceramic heater and some do not, leaving a small gap between the shank of the tip and the steel shaft. The Hakko tips leave a very small gap and sit directly on the tip of the ceramic heater, so don't over tighten the steel sleeve that holds the tip in place. Even when there's a gap with the cheaper tips you should not overtighten the sleeve, you risk breaking the ceramic heater. Just firmly finger tighten. Here's the link to the Hakko tips that I use. https://www.amazon.com/Hakko-Chisel-T18-D08-Model-Japan/dp/B013WII72Y/ref=pd_ybh_a_8?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=DGE6JP5H2VSZ06GX4TAB

What do I need to pay attention to to maintain soldering iron?

In order to make you have an excellent soldering experience, here are some tips: 1. Remember that the surface of the soldering iron should always have a layer of tin attached during the soldering work. 2. After every operation, always coat a tin layer on the tip to prevent oxidization. 3. Please don’t use sandpaper or hard objects to clean the oxide on the tip, because it will cause damage to it. To clean the oxide properly, please first set the temperature of the tip to about 250°C, then clean the tip with the sponge, then hang the tin, and keep repeating the action until the oxide is cleaned directly. 4. If the tip is too severely oxidized beyond cleaning, replace it with a new one.

Can you set the default temperature or is there a memory to let it turn on to the last temperature used?
