TIG welding with Mig 3001i

"Live TIG-start"
At a "Live TIG-start" the tungsten electrode is placed against the workpiece. When the
electrode is then lifted away from workpiece, the arc is struck at a limited current level (12 -
15 A).

MAINTENANCE

Regular maintenance is important for safe, reliable operation.
Only personnel with the appropriate electrical skills (authorised staff) may remove safety
plates.
CAUTION!
All guarantee undertakings from the supplier cease to apply if the customer himself
attempts any work in the product during the guarantee period in order to rectify any faults.
Power source
Check regularly that the welding power source is not clogged with dirt. Clogged or blocked
air inlets and outlets otherwise result in overheating.
How often and which cleaning methods apply depend on: the welding process, arc times,
placement and the surrounding environment. It is normally sufficient to blow the power
source clean with dry compressed air (reduced pressure) once a year.
Welding torch
Wear parts should be cleaned and replaced at regular intervals in order to achieve
trouble-free welding.
