TIG WELDING MODE (GTAW)
CONNECTIONS AND ADVICE
• TIG welding requires gas shielding (argon).
• Connect the earth clamp to the positive (+) connector. Connect the torch's power cable to the
negative (–) connection as well as to the torch and gas button(s) connections.
• Make sure that the torch is well fitted and that the consumables (vice grip, collar support, diffuser and nozzle) are not worn out.
• The choice of electrode depends on the TIG welding current.
SHARPENING THE ELECTRODE
For optimum performance, it is recommended to use an electrode sharpened in the following way:
