KEEP THE TRIGGER DEPRESSED UNTIL THE BRAZE IS COMPLETE
7. After about 2 seconds the fuse wire should rupture, disconnecting the circuit. The arc will
extinguish and the pin or stud will be shot forward into the molten filler.
8. In the event of a fuse not rupturing after the normal time, the gun must be withdrawn
completely from the work, keeping the trigger depressed.
9. After the fuse has ruptured, the gun must be held in place for a further 3 seconds to allow
the braze to set
10. Remove the gun by pulling straight off the pipe or substrate in line with the brazed pin, then
break out the ferrule if this is remaining in the ferrule holder. This can be achieved by
levering
against a suitable edge. Beware, it may be hot.
11. Hold the gun in a vertical position then depress the ejector button to expel the remaining
fuse wire. Catch the wire in your hand to ensure it has been ejected, as illustrated below in
figure 7(a)
