NOTE: Duty Cycles are rated over a 10 minute period.
Example: If welding with a MIG 215TE at 100amps, a 25% duty cycle applies. This means
that over a 10 minute period, the welding time is 2.5 minutes, the down time is 7.5 minutes.

PREPARATION OF THE WORKING AREA
The working area must be sufficiently spacious, not humid, and well-ventilated as to
avoid any fumes which develop from the welding process and from incidental material
adhering to the pieces to be welded (oils, paints, tars...) which may cause annoyance
to the operator.
Avoid welding by contact with humid parts nearby combustible liquids. Least of all,
do not weld upon tanks which may contain inflammable residuals.
SAFETY EQUIPMENT
A comprehensive range of CLARKE safety equipment for use when welding is available
from your local dealer.
MIG WELDING - HOW IT WORKS
MIG (Metal Inert Gas) welding is a process in which a power wire electrode is fed
continuously into the weld pool at a controlled, constant rate. The wire is connected
to the positive side of a rectified voltage supply. The workpiece is connected to the
negative side of the supply. When the wire is fed, it comes into contact with the
workpiece and an arc is struck. The arc melts the wire and the material, fusing it
together. The wire, which is fed by the wire feed motor is fed into the weld pool,
burning itself off at a rate dependent upon the selected wire feed speed. To protect
the weld pool from oxidation and impurities during the welding process, a shielding
gas flows over and around the weld pool. This gas flow must be sufficient to protect
the weld, but not wasteful.
NOTE: Poor gas coverage will result in poor welding. Excessive gas coverage is
wasteful and expensive.
BENEFITS OF MIG WELDING
1. 50% faster welding time.
2. Operator training time kept to a minimum.
3. There is no slag removal, thus eliminating almost all post-welding cleaning
operations.
4. Minimum waste of welding consumables.
5. Overall, a faster more efficient way of getting the job done.
6. Less heat - less distortion.
7. Ability to weld thin material.
