Gas Cone . Looking directly at the flash could cause discomfort to the eyes .
Caution : The brass Gas Cone and Weld Cables can become hot to the touch during the weld process .
Exercise caution when handling directly after welding .
Chapter 10: Frequently Asked Questions
Q. WHAT IF MY WELD SPOT LOOKS DISCOLORED AND DARK OR HAS A LOT
OF PITTING?
•Make sure the argon tank is turned on and that you have at least 10psi going into the system .
•Make sure there are no kinks in the argon tubing .
•Check for leaks in the argon tubing . To do so, open the valve on the regulator until the system
pressurizes, then turn off the valve . If the PSI drops dramatically, there is most likely a leak .
•Make sure the inner diameter of the gas cone is cleaned from debris and that nothing is obstructing the
flow of Argon from the tip of the cone .
•Clean and re-sharpen the electrode .
•Clean the surface of the workpiece being welded and remove any coating/oxidation that may be present
at the weld location .
•Check the weld penetration depth . Make sure the material that the workpiece is resting on is not being
affected by the weld . Sometimes, if the weld penetration is deep enough to pass all the way through both
sheets being welded, non-metallic base materials or internal layers of a battery can actually melt and
become entrained in the weld spot .
Q. WHAT IF THE GAS CONE MAKES CONTACT WITH THE WORKPIECE, BUT
NO WELD TAKES PLACE?
•Clean and maintain the electrode (sometimes build-up on the electrode can interfere with arc
generation) .
•Check Weld Timing on the Orion250i2 EV CNC . If the values are not correct, an arc may not be able to
initiate .
•Make sure the Orion 250i2 EV CNC is in “Play” mode (button on the lower left corner of the screen) .
•Make sure the weld energy levels are set high enough for the material being welded .
•Make sure the green LED light on the front of the weld head is illuminated . The weld head must be plugged
in and powered on for a weld to take place .
