5) GUN AND SETUP
For welding, insert the welding gun into the all-position clamp on the rack. Adjust the clamp, the clamp
block and the rack to position the gun for welding. Connect the weld contactor connector to the rear of the

on the AC power. Use the steering knob on the control module to move the crossarm to both the extreme
left and then the extreme right. Turn on the oscillator, at the same time, with the controls set to maximum
weave width. Readjust the crossarm or the gun if the racking fixture hits the case during operation.
