Before using this torch, - tighten regulator, hose and power cable fittings with
proper wrenches. Using small pliers, securely tighten all knurled hose fittings
(Slide the torch handle back for access to the torch connections). Purge the
regulator and TIG torch with inert gas at 20 cubic feet per hour. Following these
steps will ensure contamination free welds. Repeat this procedure whenever
torch or regulator fittings have been detached.
CONNECTION
DIAGRAM:
CAUTION:
Personal harm will result from touching the hot parts of a TIG torch without
insulative protection, or from looking directly or indirectly at an arc or reflected
arc. At no time should bare skin be exposed to a welding arc.
TUNGSTEN
PREPARATION:
GRINDING PREPARATION:
Use a 60 Grit or finer aluminum
oxide wheel
EXTENSION INSTRUCTION:
STANDARD PARTS
General Purpose:
Flat:
1/4 to 1/2 x Diameter
Taper:
2 to 3 x Diameter
3 x Diameter from end of cup.
END PREPARATION:
DCSP (EN)
General Purpose:
Ball tip by arcing on clean metal
at low current DCRP (EP) then
slowly increase current to form
the desired ball diameter.
The included angle determines weld
bead shape and size. Generally,
as the included angle increases,
penetration increases and bead
width decreases.
Maximum extension:
6 x Diameter from end of cup.
(In draft - free areas)
Ball:
Maximum 1 x Diameter
Remove sharp point to leave a
truncated point with a flat spot.
Diameter of flat spot determines
amperage.
3 x Diameter from end of cup.
Shape tungsten by grinding
logitudinally, never radially.
