Continuous TIG welding.
The arc strikes by creating a short-circuit between
the electrode and the workpiece; the welding cur-
rent is adjusted by means of the knob
D
.

Pulsed TIG welding
.
The arc strikes by creating a short-circuit between
the electrode and the workpiece, the peak current
is adjusted by means of the knob

3.3 MMA WELDING
• Make sure that the switch (
P
) is in position 0, then
connect the welding cables, matching the polarity
required by the manufacturer of the electrodes you will
be using.
VERY IMPORTANT: Connect the terminal of the ground-
ing cable to the workpiece, making sure that contact is
good to ensure smooth equipment operation and avoid
voltage dips with the workpiece.
• Do NOT touch the torch or electrode clamp simultane-
ously with the mass terminal.
• Turn the machine on using the switch (
P
).
• Press the selector switch
E
until the LED
F
lights.
• Adjust the current based on the electrode diameter,
welding position and type of joint to be made.
• Also adjust the hot-start using the knob
A
(recom-
mended setting 15) and the arc-force using the knob
C
(recommended setting 30 for basic electrodes).
Always remember to shut off the machine and remove
the electrode from the clamp after welding.
3.4 TIG WELDING
• This welding machine is suitable for welding the fol-
lowing materials using the TIG procedure: stainless
steel, iron, copper.
• Make sure that the switch (
P
) is in position 0.
• Connect the mass cable connector to the positive pole
(+) of the welding machine, and the clamp to the work-
piece as close as possible to the welding point.
• Connect the power connector of the TIG torch to the
negative pole (-) of the welding machine.
• Connect the gas hose to the outlet of the pressure
regulator, connected to an ARGON cylinder.
• Use a tungsten electrode with 2% thorium (red stripe).
• Do not touch the electrode and mass terminal simulta-
neously.
• Turn the machine on using the switch (
P
).
• Use the selector switch
E
to set the type of TIG weld-
ing, continuous or pulsed.
• Strike the arc by contact using a firm, rapid stroke.
•
Remember to shut off the machine and close the
gas cylinder valve when you have finished welding
.
3.4.1 Preparing the electrode
Grind the electrode tip so that it has vertical grooves as
shown in the figure.
• To profile the tungsten, use a hard, fine-grained abra-
sive grinding wheel used solely for this purpose.
• Be careful with metal particle.
