4
Dip the carbon electrode with the felt into the wide-mouth
container
Wait until the felt is completely saturated with
electrolyte.
Let it drip a bit before removing.
5
Position the carbon electrode with the felt
vertically
on
the workpiece.
Now brush lightly over the welding seam with the carbon
electrode.
Move the carbon electrode back and forth slightly
as you brush.
Never
press too hard on the carbon fibre brush
Just let it glide easily over the surface of the
workpiece.
Depending on the quality of the weld, you will need to
brush over it several times in order to achieve the
desired cleaning effect.
The darker the tarnishing of the welds, the longer
the cleaning phase.
You can increase the cleaning effect on heavily
oxidized welds by using our
SUPERCLEANERS
or
POLISHERS
.
6
Dip the carbon electrode into the wide-mouth container
at regular intervals.
Move the carbon electrode back and forth, 2-3
times, in the wide-mouth container.
dissolved oxides are removed
The felt can absorb fresh electrolyte.
You achieve maximum cooling of the electrode and
increase its service life.
7
After cleaning, spray the surface off immediately with water.
Use the spray bottle supplied
Use demineralised or distilled water.
In this way, you avoid unsightly white edges of lime.
The water hardness must be less than 10° dH.
The suddenly evaporating water entrains the
dissolved impurities and electrolyte residues.
8
Dry the surface.
Use paper towels.
In this way, you obtain a stain-free, dry surface.
