Maximum load on unit
If the unit is being used over several hours, only one welding pulse at the most should be activated
every 5 seconds.
However, if it is only being used for a few minutes (max. 30 minutes) a pulse can be activated every
second.
Electrode combinations and designs
for welding:
brackets, tubes, hooks
and loops
Upper electrode
REF 085–000–00
Lower electrode
REF 086–000–00
For recommended welding settings, see charts (p. 25ff.)
Notes
Electrodes must always be clean. Clean, polished and correctly set electrode tips are
essential for good welds.
Objects being welded must always be free of dirt and grease and have a clean metallic
surface.
Polishing the tips
Fold a piece of sandpaper (grain 600) with the rough side outwards and push it between the
electrodes. Draw the sandpaper back and forth between the tips until the entire surface of both
tips is polished. Remove any burrs which are created on the electrodes. If the electrodes no longer
function correctly after a longer period of operation, they can generally be re-worked slightly using
the electrode file REF 083-300-00. However, if the size of the electrode tip is affected, replace the
electrode with a new one.
