OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Section I. Operation
•
Turn ON the purge gas supply. Set the Pressure Regulator to 50 PSIG. Set the Flow Regulator for 3
cubic feet per hour.
•
Switch the POWER SWITCH to “ON”. Purge gas from the reservoir will immediately fill the Weld
Chamber, making the TC-W100A ready to use. When replacing the purge gas tank or if the purge gas
line has been opened, wait 5 minutes for the purge gas to replace the air in the purge gas line, reservoir,
and Weld Chamber. See Chapter 2.
•
Set the WIRE GAUGE SELECTOR to the desired wire gauge size. The WELD READY lamp may
flicker and go OFF instead of staying ON when the WIRE GAUGE SELECTOR is turned
COUNTERCLOCKWISE. The first weld may be safely made and the READY LAMP will turn ON for
subsequent welds.
•
Grasp the Handpiece in either hand. Slide the black Loading Button back toward the square part of the
Handpiece. Using the opposite hand, insert the stripped end of the thermocouple wire into the large
open end on the back of the Upper Wire Clamp Jaw. Feed the wire into the large open end on the back
of the Upper Wire Clamp Jaw. Feed the wire into the tube until it stops. If the insulated wire slides
through the tube without stopping, clamp the BARE wire so that it protrudes a minimum of 0.135 inches
(3.43 mm) from the end of the Wire Clamp Jaw. See figure 3-1.
Clamp the thermocouple wires together by closing the Handpiece.
