TIG SET UP - CONTINUED
For Pulse Welding
Pulse TIG welding is most commonly used
to weld thin sections of stainless steel,
non-ferrous metals such as aluminum,
magnesium and copper alloys. It is
comparatively more complex in functions.
To adjust functions, press parameter button,
rotate left knob for function selection and
rotate right knob for adjustment then press
parameter button again for confirmation.

Direct current TIG (DC) welding is when the current
flows in one direction only. Compared with AC
(Alternating Current) TIG welding the current once
flowing will not go to zero until welding has ended.
DC is used for TIG welding Mild Steel/Stainless
material and AC would be used for welding Aluminium.
