1. GENERAL INFORMATION
1.1. Application
The OSC 8pendulum oscillator is designed to oscillate MIG/MAG torches with the
diameter of 16–22 mm (5/8–7/8″). The oscillator is installed onto a 22 mm (7/8″)
diameter rod and powered from the welding equipment. Can be controlled manually
or by using an external START-STOP switch.
Using an optional freestanding support allows you to weld pipes that rotate and
plates that move. Using an optional power supply allows you to connect the oscillator
to a115 V or 230 V power source.
The oscillator can also be used on the Rail Runner 2 welding carriage to allow
work with or without seam tracking.

2. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
1. Before use, read this Operator’s Manual and complete a training in occupational
safety and health.
2. Use only in applications specified in this Operator’s Manual.
3. Make sure that the oscillator has all parts and they are genuine and not damaged.
4. Make sure that the specifications of the power source are the same as those
specified on the rating plate.
5. Do not carry the oscillator by the cord. This can cause damage.
6. Keep the oscillator dry. Do not expose it to rain, snow, or frost.
7. Do not use near flammable materials, or in explosive environments.
8. Connect the power cord only after you set the switch to the middle position.
9. Install only MIG/MAG torches with the diameter of 16–22 mm (5/8–7/8″).
10. Do not stop the oscillator by hand. To stop, set the switch to the middle position.
11. Repair only in a service center appointed by the seller.

3.2.2. To the Rail Runner 2 welding carriage
To use the oscillator without seam tracking, assembly the oscillator with a 203 mm
(8″) rod and a clamping block (1, option). Then, use the 80 mm (3″) rod to put the
oscillator onto the carriage (2). Next, set the switch to the middle position (3) and
connect the oscillator to the carriage (4).
