5 Operating elements
5.1 Valve wheel

6 Putting out of operation
1
Close the valve of the shielding gas cylinder.

NOTICE
• The type and quantity of the shielding gas depends on the welding task and the gas
nozzle geometry.
• Make all shielding gas connections gas-tight.
• To prevent the shielding gas supply from becoming clogged by impurities, the cylinder
valve must be opened briefly, before connecting the cylinder. This will blow out any
impurities that may be present.
NOTICE
• As the TIG welding torches are integrated into a welding system, the operating
instructions of the welding components, such as the welding power source, must be
observed during operation.
NOTICE
• Please make sure that the shutdown procedures for all components mounted in the
welding system are strictly observed before putting out of operation begins.
