Welding the pipes or fittings

WARNING
Risk of injury from burns
▶ Do not touch the welding plate during
operation or during the cooling-down
phase.
1
Connect the mains plug of the welding plate
to the power supply system.
2
Wait until the required welding temperature
has been reached.
3
Swivel the welding plate support with the
mounted welding plate between the parts to
be welded.
28
4
Turn the hand wheel to the right to lightly
press the parts to be welded onto the
welding plate on both sides.
✓ The cut surfaces start to melt.
5
Observe the melting process closely during
the warm-up time. As soon as the welding
bead is half the size of the wall thickness of
the parts to be welded, swivel out the
welding plate. Reference values for the
warm-up time can be found in the table at
the end of this chapter.
A certain amount of pressure must be
exerted for butt welding. The required
contact pressure is reached when the
corresponding pipe diameter can be read on
the pressure scale.
6
To build up the pressure, carefully press
together the melted parts to be welded with
the hand wheel until the pressure reaches
the required level on the pressure scale.
Maintain this pressure by tightening the
locking handle until the welding time has
ended and the weld seam has cooled down.
