– so that nobody will trip or fall over the cables or connection lines. Ensure that air is able to circulate freely through the housing. If heat is built-up inside the housing caused by bad air circulation, the stud welding unit will be seriously damaged. C 08 Order No. BA 92-20-262 Issue 01.03.08...
The connection is not secured against working itself loose! Check the plug connections regularly to ensure that they are properly locked. In case of loose connection, heat may build up in the plug and may destroy the entire plug connection. C 08 Order No. BA 92-20-262 Issue 01.03.08...
In case of loose connection, heat may build up in the plug and may destroy the entire plug connection. Remove any rust, paint, or contaminants from the workpiece in the areas where you intend to connect the ground cables. C 08 Order No. BA 92-20-262 Issue 01.03.08...
Proceed in reversed sequence as described in section 3.2 and 3.3. After changing the workplace, check the welding gun and the ground cables for possible damage or missing components. C 08 Order No. BA 92-20-262 Issue 01.03.08...
At the front of the welding gun handle, the welding gun trigger (6) is installed. It is used to trigger the welding process. The serial number (7) can be found on the welding gun handle. C 08 Order No. BA 92-20-262 Issue 01.03.08...
Adjust the standard stop pin in such a way that an overall distance of 50 mm is obtained between upper face of the retaining nut and bottom of the welding element. C 08 Order No. BA 92-20-262 Issue 01.03.08...
Installation of Chuck Put the chuck with loose retaining nut up to the stop into the piston of the welding gun. Tighten the retaining nut with the socket wrench SW 17. C 08 Order No. BA 92-20-262 Issue 01.03.08...
Turning the adjustment piece spring force clockwise decreases the spring pre-tensioning of the welding piston. Turning the adjustment piece spring force anti-clockwise increases the spring pre-tensioning of the welding piston. C 08 Order No. BA 92-20-262 Issue 01.03.08...
Remove any electrically conductive or electro-magnetically sensitive parts from your body before you start welding. In this way, you avoid the risk of damage by electric shock or influence of electromagnetic fields. C 08 Order No. BA 92-20-262 Issue 01.03.08...
