Vector Welding AC/DC Series - Operation Environment Requirements; General Operation Notices; Welding Techniques; Basic TIG Welding Technique

◆Take care that there is sufficient ventilation during welding.There is at least 30cm free
disstance between the machine and wall.
◆The content of dust,acid,corrosive gas in the surrounding air or substance can not
exceed normal standard.
◆Preferably site the machine some angles above the floor level, the maximum angle
does not exceed 15˚.
◆Height above sea level is below 1000m.
◆Operation temperature range: -10˚C~+40˚C.
◆Relative humidity is below 90% (20˚C).
3.5 Operation environment
3.6 Operation notices
◆In case closing the power switch, no-load voltage may be exported.Do not touch the
output electrode with any part of your body.
◆Connect the ground wire the machine directly.
◆Ensure good ventilation of the machine to improve duty ratio.
◆Turn off the engine when the operation finished to economize energy source.
◆Before operation,no concerned people should be left,Do not watch the arc in
unprotected eyes.
◆Read safty instruction and Chapter 1 carefully before attempting to use this equipment.
◆When power switch shuts off protectively because of failure.Don’t restart it until
until problem is resolved. Otherwise,the range of problem will be extended.
TIG Welding Application Shot
4.1 TIG basic welding technique
Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW) or TIG (Tungsten Inert Gas) as it is commonly referred
to, is a welding process in which fusion is produced by an electric arc that is established
between a single tungsten (non- consumable) electrode and the work piece. Shielding is
obtained from a welding grade shielding gas or welding grade shielding gas mixture which
is generally Argon based. A filler metal may also be added manually in some circumstances
depending on the welding application.
