the weld. Proper welding takes experience.
WARNINg! TO pREVENT SERIOUS INJURy:
protective gear must be worn when using the
Welder; minimum shade number 10 full face shield
(or welding mask), ear protection, welding gloves,
sleeves and apron, NIOSH-approved respirator,
and fire resistant work clothes without pockets
should be worn when welding. Light from the
arc can cause permanent damage to the eyes
and skin. do not breathe arc fumes.
After practice welding on scrap,
stop,
and check your progress. Perform
Strike Test according to
Strike Test on
page 34.
After making any necessary
adjustments, continue to weld
while
carefully following the DUTY CYCLE
guidelines as explained on page 29.
WARNINg!
Metal work bench must
be grounded when TIg welding.
10. Hold TIG Torch in one gloved hand and the TIG
Rod (sold separately) in other gloved hand.
NOTE:
Maintain a constant distance between the
Tungsten Electrode and the workpiece: between
1 and 1.5 times the diameter of the Electrode.
11. When welding puddle is hot enough, tilt torch
backward about 10-15 degrees from vertical and
move it back slightly. Add TIG Rod material as
needed to the front end of the weld puddle.
12.
Alternate between pushing the torch/weld
puddle and adding the TIG Rod material.
NOTE:
Remove the TIG Rod each time the Electrode
is advanced, but do not remove it from the gas shield.
This prevents oxidation from contaminating the weld.
13. When finished welding, release the Foot Pedal, but
keep Torch on weld puddle until gas flow ends.
14. Set TIG Torch down on nonconductive,
nonflammable surface away from
any grounded objects.
15. Turn the Power Switch OFF.
16. To prevent accidents, after use:
• Allow Welder to cool down.
• Unplug Welder’s power cord from outlet.
• Remove Ground Clamp from workpiece or table.
• Disconnect TIG Torch, Ground
and Food Pedal Cables.
• Close gas cylinder’s valve securely,
remove regulator and replace cap.
• Disconnect Gas Hose from Welder.
• Store and secure gas cylinder.
• Clean, then store Welder and its accessories
indoors out of children’s reach.
