Note:
When the nip pressure adjustment is set correctly, engaging the nip pressure lever should
take some effort but it should feel like a smooth motion. Again, it is important that you are getting
enough traction to avoid burning out and at the same time providing enough nip pressure to create
a good weld. Keep in mind that the thicker the material being welded and especially textured
material, the greater the pressure should be.

correct for the material you will be welding!!!
For specific applications of the material you will be welding refer to the
