• GIANT protected electrode-holder clamp
standards EN60974-11, IEC944-11
Ideal due to its high performance. Great flexibility in the placement and use with electrode. Industrial work
with high duty cycle. Valid for all the GAR CONTINUOS LINE equipment.
• STRONG protected electrode-holder clamp
standards EN60974-11, IEC944-11
Ideal due to its high performance. Great protection against direct electric contacts. Industrial work with
high duty cycle. Valid for all the GAR CONTINUOS LINE equipment.
• Earth clamp model 500 A (zinc-plated). Ref. 673.00.500
We recommend the welding cables (electrode-holder clamp and earth clamp) to be formed with rubber-
coated conductors, as these have greater resistance to the external agents, which they are going to be
submitted to. The section of these cables as well as the appropriate welding electrode-holder clamp will be
chosen in agreement with the following table:
Table 2 – Criterion to choose the electrode-holder clamp and section of the welding cables.

Accessories. Welding protections.
The use of the GAR CONTINUOS LINE equipment entails a series of risks, which is why we ask you to read
CHAPTER 6 of this manual with great attention.
To prevent these risks GALA GAR S.A. has an extensive catalogue where you will find all kinds of protection
products (welding masks: normal and electronic, gloves, etc.) as well as another series of accessories such as
picks, brushes, etc.
Accessories. Remote controls.
• Remote control MD-1 (10 mt). Ref:410.12.048
Double potencimeter remote control for fine tuning welding current (included as standard with the unit). This
remote control is the most practical and easier.
• Remote control MD-2. Ref:410.12.060
Allows the welding current extra-fine adjustment remote through a multiturn potentiometer.
Accessories. TIG welding process.
• TIG control HF 300 DC. Ref. 651.00.000
This permits TIG welding with GAS control (incorporating preflow and after-flow functions) by means of
solenoid valve, also permitting TIG arcing by High frequency system, which permits arcing without contact
apart from the LIFT-ARC system.
• Argon pressure reducer valve with rotameter EN 2, Ref. 376.00.500
FOR THE USE OF ANY OTHER ACCESSORY CONSULT THE MANUFACTURER.
