CD 80 SETUP
After installation, two setup phases must be completed before welding can
begin. These phases are:
•
Weld Gun Setup
, and
•
Controller Adjustment
.
Your weld gun setup will depend on your application and the particular
stud to be welded. Setting up the gun consists of the following:
1. Locate the studs (or pins) that were shipped for your job and place a
stud into the weld gun Collet with the “weld tip” protruding. Push this
stud in until it seats firmly, assuring that the flange (or collar) of the
weld end does not come into contact with the collet.
2. Make sure that the gun “setup” accessories that came with the CD 2P
weld gun are adjusted properly and fastened tightly. Illustrations on
the following pages for:
• Insulation Pins (Figure 1)
• Insulation Pins with Collet Protector (Figure 2)
• Weld Studs (Figure 3)
• Weld Studs with Template Adaptor (Figure 4)
NOTE: These components may need to be readjusted, or changed, as
your job requirements change.
