DANGER
Risk of injury due to unexpected start
Turn off the entire system prior to assembling, disassembling or repair work performed on the device parts.
• Close all supply lines.
• Disconnect the electrical power supply.
DANGER
Risk of injury and device damage when handled by unauthorized persons
Improper repair work and modifications to the product may lead to serious injuries and damage to the device. The product warranty will be rendered invalid if
work is carried out on the product by unauthorized persons.
• Only qualified personnel are permitted to perform work on the device or system.
NOTICE
• The welding torch may not be operated with a disconnected nozzle for shielding gas and suction, nor with switched off extraction.
Carry out all steps in the specified sequence.
4.1

Preparing the welding torch for installation of the cable assembly

1 Switch off the power source and unplug the power plug.
4.2

Equipping the torch neck

The TIG manual welding torches are fully equipped upon delivery.
Information about replacing wear parts can be found here:
4.3 Connecting the cable assembly, Fig. A
1 Plug the cable assembly connector into the power source and secure it
with a connection nut.
2 Mount the shielding gas and control lead connector.
3 Coolant: Connect the flow line (blue) and return line (red).
• Check the coolant's minimum fill level.

The degree to which welding fumes are captured during torch-integrated
extraction depends on many factors, such as the position of the suction
nozzle, the welding geometry, and the rate of smoke emission during the
welding process. Under optimal conditions, over 95% of the welding fumes
can be captured in accordance with ISO 21904-3.

• Recommendation: Use ABICOR BINZEL coolant from the BTC range.
• To prevent damage to the welding machine, do not use deionized or
demineralized water.
• Purge the coolant circuit the first time the equipment is commissioned and
with every cable assembly replacement.
