illuminate, but the Torch is not yet energized.
9. Point the torch away from all objects and press the trigger until the wire feeds out of
the gun two inches. If necessary, move the Torch Handle slightly in a circular motion to
help feed the Welding Wire properly out of the Head Tube
Caution : The Torch handle is now energized. Be careful not touch anything else with the
Torch except the work piece to be welded.
When everything is prepare well for welding.
Preset parameter according the job needed. (Refer
to panel instruction on
page 9). Hold the Trigger down and tilt the torch forward. Keep the
wire touch the work piece.
MIG Welding Tips
Welding current(A) Welding voltage(V) Dia. Of wire(mm)
60~80 17~18 0.8~1.0
80~130 18~21 1.0~1.2
130~200 20~24 1.0~1.2
200~250 24~27 1.0~1.2
Basic Welding Technique
1. Press (and hold) trigger and contact area to be welded with electrode wire to ignite arc
2.
For a narrow weld, you can usually draw the Welding Wire in a steady straight line.
This is called a
“stringer bead”.
For a wider weld, draw the Welding Wire back and forth across the joint in a curve.
This is called a
“weave bead” .
3. Hold Torch in one hand and the face shield in the other.
4. Direct the welding wire straight into the joint. This gives an angle of 90
o
(straight up
and down) for butt (end to end) welds, and an angle of 45
o
for filter (T-shaped) welds.
