HSS Hire Hire-Weld HW026 Operating & Safety Manual

Note that recommended settings are merely
guides. Changing them slightly may give better
results. So, always perform a test weld.
BASIC TECHNIQUES
As the rod and groove surfaces soften, move the
air gun back along the groove whilst feeding the
welding rod into the weld.
As the weld progresses, push the weld rod tightly
into the groove using the rod bedding tool.
Once completed, wait a few minutes for the weld
to cool, then trim the excess in two stages.

Guide
Firstly using the trimming knife and trimming
guide (see illustration) then secondly using the
trimming knife on its own.
EQUIPMENT CARE
Never push the equipment beyond its design
limits. If it will not do what you want with
reasonable ease and speed, assume you have the
wrong type or size of welder for the job. Ask at
your local HSS Hire Weld Depot for advice.
When not in use, store the equipment somewhere
clean, dry and safe from thieves.
Wire Brush
Keep the equipment clean. You will find this less of a
chore if you clean it up regularly rather than wait until
the end of the hire period. Remove any build-up of
melted welding rod with the wire brush provided.
FINISHING OFF
Switch OFF and unplug the air gun, then leave
everything to cool.
Remove any remaining welding rod from the feed
tube then remove the feed tube from the nozzle.
Neatly coil the power supply cable and place
everything in the carry case ready for return, to
your local HSS Hire Weld Depot.
