• Rotate the stylus holder to approximately a 45-degree angle as shown in Figure 5.3 (the stylus should
be angled down).
• Fine tune the position of the Welding Stylus while looking through the microscope: Loosen the thumb
screw on the bottom side of the stylus holder and slide the Welding Stylus forward and backward until
the tip of the Welding Stylus is in the center of your focus. See the example in Figure 5.4.
• Now securely tighten the Welding Stylus in place by tightening the thumb screw on the bottom of the
stylus holder.
Figure 6.2. To install the electrode, first remove the Stylus
Shaft (A) from the Stylus Hull (E) by pulling them apart.
Figure 6.3. Use the guide engraved on the side of the Stylus
Hull (E) for proper Electrode (D) positioning.

Electrode Setup
The Orion mPulse comes standard with a 1.0mm elec-
trode collet and ten (10) 1.0mm electrodes. The 1.0mm
electrodes are a good multipurpose electrode for most
welding applications. Available separately, Sunstone of-
fers 0.5mm electrodes, which are more suited for very
small applications (less than 5 Ws of energy).
INSTALL THE TUNGSTEN ELECTRODE ONTO
THE WELDING STYLUS
Refer to the Stylus Components Chart (Figure 6.1) to
install the tungsten electrode (D).
• Remove the stylus hull (E) by pulling it away
from the Stylus Shaft (A). See Figure 6.2.
• Loosen the Collet Cap (C) by twisting it counter-
clockwise.
The welder accommodates 0.5mm and 1.0mm elec-
trodes. The electrode stylus will be shipped with the
1.0mm electrode collet (B) installed.
• Insert a 1.0mm electrode (D) into the Collet (B).
Helpful Tip: There is a engraved guide on the
