The maximum electrode-side sheet thickness is 1.25 mm; the thickness of
the sheet on the opposite side should however be higher. Prior to welding,
ensure that the sheets are perfectly clean and close lying.
For optimum results, use an electrode F in good condition and with a maxi-
mum electrode tip diameter of between 3.5 and 4.5 mm; you can also use a
suitable electrode cap.
Always attach the work piece clamp to the lower sheet or, if the weld zone
cannot be accessed from the rear, press the work piece clamp against the rear
plate by using the copper lug that was delivered together with the other
equipment. Already welded spots produce a parallel resistance, and thus an
energy loss. To reduce this loss to the greatest possible extent, the following
spots must be welded in direction to the ground clamp.
Place the gun with the electrode F at right angle onto the sheets to be weld-
ed, press strongly against them and activate the trigger G. (See figure
above).
Reference and standard values are stated on the adhesive label on the acces-
sories box of the multi-function gun. For program selection, see part "Con-
trol System"
The machine offers almost everything that is required and available on the
welding market.
Standard procedures are:
3. Welding of rivets, nails /studs H and washers E and subsequent recovery
with the slide hammer N and suitable replaceable head fittings K, L .
4. Use of the triangular pulling eye M. (See figure below).
