3. USE

NOTE! Welding fumes may be dangerous to your health. Ensure that there is ample ventilation

during welding! Never look at the arc without a face shield specically designed for arc welding!

Protect yourself and your surrounding area from the arc and hot welding spatter!

Prepare to weld

NOTE! Always wear protective clothing, gloves, face and eye shields suitable for welding. It is

recommended that you make practice welds before you commence welding your main work

piece. If when igniting the arc or during welding, the electrode stick’s or freezes’ to the work piece,

note that it will quickly heat up, and may start to glow red hot. To release the electrode, twist the

electrode holder away from the work piece and start again. If this fails, switch o the machine at

the main switch and then release the electrode after it has cooled down.

NOTE! The electrode and work piece will be very hot. Protect yourself and others at all times.

You can start welding after you have made the necessary preparation described throughout

these instructions.

3.1 About welding

MinarcTig Evo is a precise welding tool and will provide high quality results time after

time provided the correct operational procedures are followed. Welding quality is not only

inuenced by the machine itself. Personal expertise, ancillary equipment and consumables

also play an essential role, as does the correct, fused supply power.

In addition to the welding machine, welding outcome is inuenced by the piece being welded

and the welding environment. Therefore, recommendations in this manual must be followed.

Welding is carried out when an electric arc is established between the welding electrode

and work piece. Earthing cable attached to the workpiece guides the current back to the

machine, forming the needed closed circuit. Unrestricted current ow is possible when the

earthing clamp is properly attached to the workpiece and the xing point of the clamp on the

workpiece is clean, paintless and rustfree.
