TIG Connection
• This inverter welder can also be used for TIG welding, a high-quality welding process with non-consumable tungsten electrodes
and arch protected with inert gas like argon gas o helium.
• TIG welding is ideal to weld stainless steel, iron and copper.
• With this process, a AN-GRUPO1 torch and a can of protective gas are required (not included).
• Press the lower arrow in the process selector to set the welder into the TIG mode. (Tungsten electrode).
NOTE
The LED facing down will turn ON.
TIG
• The connection shall be set in direct polarity:
• Connect the clamp cable to ground the positive outlet
terminal (+) of the welder and the grounding clamp to
the work piece.
• Connect the torch cable (A) to the negative outlet
terminal (-) of the welder.
• Connect the torch gas input (B) to the output
valve of the regulator (C) of the protection gas.
• Turn torch valve (D) to open gas flow. Turn
the knob (E) of the regulator to adjust the
gas flow until obtaining an approximate
flow in L / min of 6 times the diameter
of the electrode.
• To start the arch, set the nozzle making an angle onto the
work piece (1).
• Lift the torch, not separating it from the work piece to
approach the electrode to the work piece (2).
• When starting the electric arc, lift the torch so that the
electrode tip is 0.08" away from the work piece (3) and start
welding.
• It is advisable to keep the
electrode 90° vertical during the
welding to guarantee the protection
of the gas.
