Micro Weld Head Fixture Blocks
The micro weld head fixtures require regular cleaning
and maintenance.
Daily Maintenance
1.
Clean the surfaces of the fixture that contact the work
pieces. Use the wire brush included in the micro weld
head accessory package. See Figure 6-3.
2.
If applicable, check the fixture insulating tape for
damage. Replace the tape if it is loose or torn, exposing
the metal under it.. See Figure 6-4.
To replace the tape:
a.
Remove the damaged tape from both sides of
the fixture.
Disassembly of the CWS-8MF-08 and
CWS-8MF-12MM may be necessary to assist in
replacing the tape. Disassemble by removing the
screws which hold the arc covers on each side of
the fixture. Refer to page F-48 in Appendix F,
Part Drawings
.
b.
Clean the surfaces with alcohol or acetone.
c.
Apply one end of the pre-cut tape strip to the inside
edge of the underside surface. The tape should
wrap in the direction shown in Figure 6-4.
d.
Wrap the tape tightly (approximately 1 1/2 turns).
The tape should end at the outside edge of the
top surface.
