NOTICE
• Instead of the electrode holder, you may also use a gas diffuser. Due to its design, it will
produce a laminar gas flow.
NOTICE
• The welding performance is affected by the selection of the tungsten electrode and by
wear. A smooth, groove-free sharpened end of the tungsten electrode has a positive effect
on the welding result.
