torch with the gas check function. Confirm the air flow is
constant and does not sputter.
ATTACH THE GROUND CLAMP
1. Clean off dirt, oil, rust, scale, oxidation and paint from the
workpiece where the ground clamp will be attached.
2. Attach the ground clamp to the workpiece (Fig. 6).
Connect the ground clamp directly to the workpiece and as

from traveling along an unexpected path, creating an
electric shock or fire hazard.
3. If this is not possible,
connect the ground clamp
to metal attached to the
workpiece, but is not
electrically insulated from
it. The metal must be of
equal or greater thickness
than the workpiece when
using this alternate
attachment point.

2. Pull the trigger to energize

of the workpiece (Fig. 8).
