4 Putting into operation
4.1 Setting up the torch body
CAUTION
Risk of injury
Puncture or cut-in wounds may be caused by the wire electrode.
• Keep your hands out of the danger zone.
• Wear the correct protective gloves.
Equip the torch neck according to the following figure:

NOTICE
• Instead of the electrode holder, you may also use a gas diffuser. Due to its design, it will
produce a laminar gas flow.
4.2 Shortening the tungsten electrode
The electrode type is set by EN ISO 6848. The maximum electrode length depends on the torch
type.
NOTICE
• The welding performance is affected by the selection of the tungsten electrode and by
wear. A smooth, groove-free sharpened end of the tungsten electrode has a positive effect
on the welding result.
4.3 Connecting the cable assembly
1 Plug the hose assembly connection into the power source and secure it with a connection nut.
2 Properly mount the connections for water supply/return, shielding gas and control line plug.
