Igniting the arc When using a welding torch with a torch trigger and TIG Multi Connector plug
(with 2-step mode factory setting):
1
Position the gas nozzle at the ignition point so that there is a distance of approxim-
ately 2 to 3 mm (0.078 to 0.118 in.) between the tungsten electrode and the work-
piece
2
Gradually tilt the welding torch up until the tungsten electrode touches the workpiece
3
Pull back the torch trigger and hold it in this position
Shielding gas flows.
4
Raise the welding torch and tilt it into the normal position
The arc now ignites.
5
Carry out welding
Ending the weld-
ing process
1
Raise the TIG welding torch off the workpiece until the arc goes out.
Important! To protect the tungsten electrode, allow the shielding gas to flow after the
end of welding until the tungsten electrode has cooled down sufficiently.
2
Release the torch trigger
