ATTENTION! - CHECK FOR GAS LEAKAGE
At initial set up and at regular intervals we recommend to check for gas leakage
Recommended procedure is as follows:
1.
Connect the regulator and gas hose assembly and tighten all connectors and clamps.
2.
Slowly open the cylinder valve.
3.
Set the flow rate on the regulator to approximately 8-10 L/min.
4.
Close the cylinder valve and pay attention to the needle indicator of the contents pressure gauge on the regulator, if the needle drops away towards
zero there is a gas leak. Sometimes a gas leak can be slow and to identify it will require leaving the gas pressure in the regulator and line for an
extended time period. In this situation it is recommended to open the cylinder valve, set the flow rate to 8-10 L/min, close the cylinder valve and check
after a minimum of 15 minutes.
5.
If there is a gas loss then check all connectors and clamps for leakage by brushing or spraying with soapy water, bubbles will appear at the leakage
point.
6.
Tighten clamps or fittings to eliminate gas leakage.
IMPORTANT! - We strongly recommend that you check for gas leakage prior to operation of your machine. We recommend that you close the
cylinder valve when the machine is not in use.
Welding Guns Of Australia PTY LTD, authorised representatives or agents of Welding Guns Of Australia PTY LTD will not be liable or responsible for
the loss of any gas.
