3.1 Welding
Connect the power supply.
The flashing speed display indicates power-on.
Nozzle covering (image D)
For welding PVC and polyolefine all 4 nozzles (1) are
used. For welding linoleum and caoutchouc, pull the noz-
zle covering (2), that covers the top nozzle.
Welding (image D)
► put the Weldmaster onto the groove
► draw welding rod through the feed tube (3) and under
the welding wheel (4)
The welding rod must lay in the groove, the rear guide
wheel must sit above the groove.
Operating panel (image C)
To start the Weldmaster press the START button. After
releasing the button, the Weldmaster will heat the flooring
and start to run at the pre-set speed.
Set the optimum temperature with the switch at the top of
the hot-air-gun.
Keeping the START button pressed
To get a welding already from the start, keep the start but-
ton pressed for 1 to 2 sec. This suppresses the motion, but
already heats the welding rod and the floor covering. If you
release the button, the Weldmaster starts to run.
During the first meters the temperature will rise slightly.
Readjust the temperature setting if necessary.
Adjusting the pressure of the welding wheel
(image D)
The pressure of the welding wheel can be adjusted with
thumb screw (5). Screw down the thumb screw completely
for welding PVC, screw down half for welding all other
types of floorings.

Automatic shut-off at the wall (image A)
If the Weldmaster reaches the wall, the valve piston (7) will
automatically shut off the drive. The hot-air-gun remains
switched on, and the hot air is directed to the escape noz-
zle at the side of the valve. The front part of the machine is
lifted keeping the hot nozzles away from the flooring.
Shining strips or damaged flooring are avoided by that
means.
Cut the welding rod above the feed tube just before the
Weldmaster will hit the wall. You can use the loose part
later to be welded by hand into the remaining open joint.
Do not switch off the hot-air-gun. The Weldmaster is ready
for welding the next groove.
Trimming the welding rod
Some minutes after welding you can trim the welding rod
in two operations with quarter moon knife and trimming
guide.
Cooling the machine down
Having finished welding, cool the machine down with run-
ning ventilator and heating, set to 0.
4.0 Transport
Prior to placing the machine in the transport case, hang
the cut-out (A) as shown in picture E.
5.0 Maintenance and cleaning
► Before any work on the machine itself, pull the mains
plug.
► For safe and proper working, always keep the machine
and ventilation slots clean.
The machine must then be sent to an after-sales
Service agent. Addresses are listed in the Section
"After- sales service and customer assistance".
If the machine should fail despite the care taken in
manufacturing and testing procedures, repair should be
carried out by an after-sales service centre for WOLFF
power tools.
