REQUIRED ITEMS

Before you begin using the Eastwood TIG Welding System, make sure you have the following: 

• Our TIG 200 is supplied with the popular NEMA 6-50P plug, requiring a NEMA 6-50R receptacle.
• The TIG 200 will also operate on a 110-120 VAC 20 Amp circuit. To operate on this voltage it is necessary to connect the included adaptor cord

to the plug hard wired to the TIG 200.

• A clean, safe, well-lit, dry and well-ventilated work area.
• A non-flammable, long sleeve shirt or jacket (Eastwood #12762L, XL, XXL).
• Heavy Duty Welding Gloves (#12590)
• An Auto Darkening Welding Mask (Eastwood #13203, #13212, #14425 or equivalent)

to provide eye protection during welding operations. 

NOTE:

 MUST be a #11 lens or darker.

• A compressed gas cylinder containing 100% Argon (must be used when TIG welding and is available at any welding supply facility).
• Dedicated stainless steel wire welding brush for each material to be welded.
• A dedicated fine grit synthetic stone grinding wheel or a Tungsten Sharpener.
