3.4 Setting the shielding gas quantity
4 Operating elements
Using a standard welding torch, the two-cycle mode of the trigger can be
activated.
4.1 2-cycle function trigger
1
Press the Single function trigger on the handle and keep it depressed =
welding is started.
2
Release the trigger = welding is stopped.
5 Operation
NOTE
• The type and quantity of the shielding gas quantity depends on the
welding task and the gas nozzle geometry.
• Make all shielding gas connections gas-tight.
• To prevent the shielding gas supply from becoming clogged by
impurities, the cylinder valve must be opened briefly, before connecting
the cylinder. This will blow out any impurities that may be present.
NOTE
• As the TIG welding torches are integrated into a welding system, the
operating instructions of the welding components, such as the welding
power supply, must be observed during operation.
DANGER
Health hazards caused by radioactive substances
Radioactive substances are released during welding and sharpening of
thorium-tungsten electrodes.
• Use a suitable extractor unit.
