Operating Instructions
Fig 4.3a
The element wires can the be straightened (see fig 4.3b) and insulated as appropriate.
4.4 Weld quality.
Examine the weld using the magnifying glass supplied. A good weld will produce a spherical ball of
metal on the end of the wires. A flat bridge between the wires indicates too low an energy setting. A
flattened hemisphere indicates that the energy setting is too high.
