Understand and follow
safety symbols at start of
Section 9-1 before preparing
tungsten.
Ball end of tungsten before welding
by applying either an ac amperage
slightly higher than what is recom-
mended for a given electrode diam-
eter (see Section 8-1), or a dc
electrode positive amperage.

Tapered End
Grind end of tungsten on fine grit,
hard abrasive wheel before weld-
ing. Do not use wheel for other jobs
or tungsten can become contami-
nated causing lower weld quality.
