6.02 Setup For Lift TIG (GTAW) Welding
A. Select Lift TIG mode with the process selection control (refer to Section 4.02.1 for further information).
B. Connect the TIG Torch to the negative welding terminal (-). Refer to Note below for Optional TIG Torch
information. Welding current flows from the power source via Dinse type terminals. It is essential,
however, that the male plug is inserted and turned securely to achieve a sound electrical connection.
C. Connect the work lead to the positive welding terminal (+). Welding current flows from the Power Source
via Dinse type terminals. It is essential, however, that the male plug is inserted and turned securely to
achieve a sound electrical connection.
D. Connect an Argon Regulator/Flowmeter (not supplied) to the Argon Shielding Gas Cylinder then con-
nect the TIG Torch gas hose to regulator. Before turning on shielding gas check that all fittings are
tight and the gas valve on the TIG torch is turned off. Before commencing to TIG weld open TIG torch
gas valve to allow sufficient shielding gas flow when welding. Refer to Section 6.03 for recommended
Shielding Gas flow rates and other TIG Welding information.
!
WARNING
Secure the welding grade shielding gas cylinder in an upright position by chaining it to a suitable stationary
support to prevent falling or tipping.
Open Gas Cylinder Valve carefully.
!
WARNING
Before connecting the work clamp to the work and inserting the electrode in the TIG torch make sure the Mains power
supply is switched off.
!
CAUTION
Remove any packaging material prior to use. Do not block the air vents at the front or rear of the Welding Power Source.
NOTE!
The TIG Torch is NOT supplied. It is an optional accessory. Refer to Table 2-2 on Page 2-6 for optional accessory informa-
