4-5. BASIC INFORMATION AND TIPS:
Important!
•
Always work with a sharp edge electrode to get optimal results.
•
Always make sure that there is enough contact between work piece and welding table. In
case of problems use a clamp and/or pliers.
•
Never weld “free hand”. That is, always support both hands on the base (work table).
Trembling hands will distort the parameter of the device.
•
Use only very light pressure on the electrode tip.
•
Weld only using low gas pressure!
TIPS
•
Take the time to familiarize yourself with our
device
•
Test the different adjustment possibilities of the
equipment.
•
Remember that materials may react differently
•
When choosing the performance level and
welding time consider the material thickness
•
Touch the work piece exactly at the point to
weld.
•
Once you are more familiar with the device you
will notice that angle you use to touch the needle
to the work piece will influence the “flow
direction” of the welding spot. An angle of touch
of 90° will result in the deepest welding spot
possible.
•
A saw or file burr can serve well as a „welding
addition“.
•
Allow the needle to clamp in longer for deep-
lying welding spots.
•
If you work with adding material, use only suitable
welding wires.
•
If you have problems igniting, it may be helpful
to
lightly press the needle sideways
. Using
this technique you will be able to push welding
spot in a certain direction.
4-6. GRINDING THE ELECTRODES
Figure 4
The electrodes must be ground on a fine or medium
Diamond wheel.
The angle should be about 15 - 25°. ( Fig. 4)
SECTION 5 – MAINTENANCE
PIP 100 requires a minimum amount of care and
maintenance when used under normal operating
conditions. Please take note of some important points that
will ensure a smooth functioning of your device and
guarantee good service in the years to come.
•
Occasionally check mains plug and cables and
welding cable for damage.
.
•
Check the movable parts of the hand piece for
easy movement.
•
Occasionally clean the electrode screw
connection on the hand piece to guarantee good
contact with the electrode.
Attention
If fuses have to be replaced, only replace them with fuses of the same kind. If overly powerful fuses are used, the
warranty against any possible damage will no longer be valid.
The device should only be opened by trained personnel!
