Determination of Welding Method
• If the total thickness at the area to be welded is 3 mm {0.12 in} or more, use a CO
2
gas shielded-arc welder to
make the plug welds.
Making Holes for CO
2
Arc Welding
• For places that cannot be spot welded, make a hole for CO
2
arc welding using a punch or drill as follows.
(mm {in})
• Grind the shaded section indicated in the diagram below and create a hole in the part where the 3—4 plates
are put together. Also, weld the plates together tightly so that gaps do not develop.
Application of Weld-through Primer
• For treatment against corrosion, remove the paint grease, and other material from the portion of new part and
body to be welded, and apply weld-through primer.
