2 – Torch Setup
Installing the consumables
To operate the robotic torch, a complete set of consumable parts must be installed: shield, retaining cap, nozzle,
electrode, and swirl ring.
If the O-ring on the torch body is dry, lubricate it and the threads with a thin layer of silicone lubricant. Silicone lubricant is
included in several of the replacement kits. Then, to operate the torch, install the consumables as shown in
Figure 14 .
Make sure to use the appropriate parts to the corresponding system amperage. To replace the consumables, turn the
power switch to the OFF (
O ) position, remove the consumables, and install the new consumables by referring to
Figure 14 .
