RAZORWELD™ 205SS MIG/TIG/STICK Welder Manual
INSTALLATION SET UP FOR MMA
(STICK) WELDING
3) Set the welding current using the
amperage control dial
4) Place the electrode into the electrode
holder and clamp tight.
5) Strike the electrode against the work
piece to create and arc and hold the elec-
trode steady to maintain the arc
6) Hold the electrode slightly above the
work piece to maintain the arc while
travelling at an even speed to create and
even weld deposition.
7)
To finish the weld, break the arc by
quickly snapping the electrode away from
the work piece.
8) Wait for the weld to cool and carefully
chip away the slag to reveal the weld
metal below.
(2) Connect the
electrode lead
to
(1) Set MIG/MMA selector
switch to MMA
(2) Connect the earth
lead to
(1) Turn the power source on and select the MMA function with the Tig/MMA/Mig selector switch.
(2) Connection of Output Cables
Two sockets are available on this welding machine. For MMA welding the electrode holder is shown
be connected to the negative socket, while the earth lead (work piece) is connected to the positive
socket, this is known as DC- polarity. However various electrodes require a different polarity for
optimum results and careful attention should be paid to the polarity, refer to the electrode
manufacturers information for the correct polarity.
DC+ Electrode connected to output socket.
DC- Electrode connected to output socket.
(3) Set the welding current relevant to the electrode type and size being used as recommended by the
electrode manufacturer.
