electrode in the direction in which you are working
should be 20/30°.
Caution!
Always use tongs to remove spent electrodes and
to move parts that you have just welded. Please
note that the electrode holder (8) must always be
put down in an isolated position after you have
completed the welding work.
Do not remove the slag until the weld has cooled.
If you want to continue a weld after an interrupti-
on, the slag from your initial attempt must fi rst be
removed.
TIG welding
Before you begin TIG welding with the machine,
make sure that the machine has been switched
off at the On/Off switch (11). Then set the selec-

For details of how to proceed, please read the
instructions provided with your TIG welding torch
set.
Caution!
If large gas cylinders are used, they must be se-
cured against tipping over!
Overheating guard
The welding set is fi tted with an overheating
guard that protects the welding transformer from

control lamp (4) on your set will be lit. Allow the
welding set to cool for a time.
