Page 4: Safety
SAFETY Welding and cutting equipment can be dangerous to both the operator and people in or near the surrounding working area, if the equipment is not correctly operated. Equipment must only be used under the strict and comprehensive observance of all relevant safety regulations. Read and understand this instruction manual carefully before the installation and operation of this equipment. - Page 5 Razor Weld SAFETY Fire hazard. Welding/cutting on closed containers, such as tanks,drums, or pipes, can cause them to explode. Flying sparks from the welding/cutting arc, hot work piece, and hot equipment can cause fires and burns. Accidental contact of electrode to metal objects can cause sparks, explosion, overheating, or fire.

Page 10: Mma(Stick) Welding Guide
MMA(STICK) WELDING GUIDE MMA (Manual Metal Arc) Welding One of the most common types of arc welding is manual metal arc welding (MMA) or stick welding. An electric current is used to strike an arc between the base material and a consumable electrode rod or ‘stick’. The electrode rod is made of a material that is compatible with the base material being welded and is covered with a flux that gives off gaseous vapours that serve as a shielding gas and providing a layer of slag, both of which protect the weld area from atmospheric contamination. -

Razor Weld MMA(STICK) WELDING GUIDE MMA (Stick) Welding Fundamentals Electrode Selection As a general rule, the selection of an electrode is straight forward,in that it is only a matter of selecting an electrode of similar composition to the parent metal. However, for some metals there is a choice of several electrodes, each of which has particular properties to suit specific classes of work. -

Page 14: Wire Feed Roller Selection
WIRE FEED ROLLER SELECTION Wire Feed Roller Selection The importance of smooth consistent wire feeding during MIG welding cannot be emphasized enough. Simply put the smoother the wire feed then the better the welding will be. Feed rollers or drive rollers are used to feed the wire mechanically along the length of the welding gun. Feed rollers are designed to be used for certain types of welding wire and they have different types of grooves machined in them to accommodate the different types of wire. -

Page 20: Mig Welding Guide
MIG WELDING GUIDE MIG (Metal Inert Gas) Welding Definition of MIG Welding - MIG (metal inert gas) welding also known as GMAW (gas metal arc welding) or MAG (metal active gas welding), is a semi-automatic or automatic arc welding process in which a continuous and consumable wire electrode and a shielding gas are fed through a welding gun. - Page 21 Razor Weld MIG WELDING GUIDE MIG (Metal Inert Gas) Welding Short Circuit Transfer - Short circuit transfer is the most common used method whereby the wire electrode is fed continuously down the welding torch through to and exiting the contact tip. The wire touches the work piece and causes a short circuit the wire heats up and begins to form a molten bead, the bead separates from the end of the wire and forms a droplet that is transferred into the weld pool.
- Page 22 MIG WELDING GUIDE Basic MIG Welding Good weld quality and weld profile depends on gun angle, direction of travel, electrode extension (stick out), travel speed, thickness of base metal, wire feed speed (amperage) and arc voltage. To follow are some basic guides to assist with your setup. Gun Position - Travel Direction, Work Angle Gun position or technique usually refers to how the wire is directed at the base metal, the angle and travel direction chosen.
- Page 23 Razor Weld MIG WELDING GUIDE Travel Angle Travel angle is the right to left angle relative to the direction of welding. A travel angle of 5°- 15° is ideal and produces a good level of control over the weld pool. A travel angle greater that 20° will give an unstable arc condition with poor weld metal transfer, less penetration, high levels of spatter, poor gas shield and poor quality finished weld.
-
Page 24: Travel Speed
MIG WELDING GUIDE Travel Speed Travel speed is the rate that the gun is moved along the weld joint and is usually measured in mm per minute. Travel speeds can vary depending on conditions and the welders skill and is limited to the welders ability to control the weld pool. Push technique allows faster travel speeds than Drag technique. -
Page 25: Gas Selection
Razor Weld MIG WELDING GUIDE Wire types and sizes Use the correct wire type for the base metal being welded. Use stainless steel wire for stainless steel, aluminium wires for aluminium and steel wires for steel. Use a smaller diameter wire for thin base metals. For thicker materials use a larger wire diameter and larger machine, check the recommended welding capability of you machine. -

Page 32: Tig Welding Guide
TIG WELDING GUIDE DC TIG Welding The DC power source uses what is known as DC (direct current) in which the main elec- trical component known as electrons flow in only one direction from the negative pole (terminal) to the positive pole (terminal). In the DC electrical circuit there is an electrical principle at work which should always be taken into account when using any DC circuit. -
Page 33: Dc Pulse Tig Welding
Razor Weld TIG WELDING GUIDE DC Pulse TIG Welding Pulse TIG welding is when the current output (amperage) changes between high and low current. Electronics within the welding machine create the pulse cycle. Welding is done during the high-amperage interval (this high amperage is referred to as peak current). -
Page 34: Tig Welding Fusion Technique
TIG WELDING GUIDE TIG Welding Fusion Technique Manual TIG welding is often considered the most difficult of all the welding process- es. Because the welder must maintain a short arc length, great care and skill are re- quired to prevent contact between the electrode and the workpiece. Similar to Oxy- gen Acetylene torch welding, Tig welding normally requires two hands and in most instances requires the welder to manually feed a filler wire into the weld pool with one hand while manipulating the welding torch in the other. - Page 35 Razor Weld DC TIG WELDING GUIDE Tungsten Electrodes Tungsten is a rare metallic element used for manufacturing TIG welding electrodes. The TIG process relies on tungsten’s hardness and high-temperature resistance to carry the welding current to the arc. Tungsten has the highest melting point of any metal, 3,410 degrees Celsius.
- Page 36 DC TIG WELDING GUIDE Tungsten Preparation Always use wheels when grinding and cutting. While tungsten is a very hard material, the surface of a DIAMOND diamond wheel is harder, and this makes for smooth grinding. Grinding without diamond wheels, such as aluminium oxide wheels, can lead to jagged edges, imperfections, or poor surface finishes not visible to the eye that will contrib- ute to weld inconsistency and weld defects.

Razor Weld GAS FLOW REGULATORS - SHEILDING GASES GAS FLOW RATES GAS FLOW REGULATORS The job of the gas flow regulator is to reduce the bottle pressure gas down to a lower pressure and deliver it at a constant flow. This constant flow of gas is usually fed through the welding machine where it is controlled by a solenoid valve, operated when the torch trigger is pulled. -
