This group of symbols means Warning! Watch Out! ELECTRIC

SHOCK, MOVING PARTS, and HOT PARTS hazards. Consult sym-

bols and related instructions below for necessary actions to avoid the

hazards.

1-2. Arc Welding Hazards

The symbols shown below are used throughout this manual

to call attention to and identify possible hazards. When you

see the symbol, watch out, and follow the related instructions

to avoid the hazard. The safety information given below is

only a summary of the more complete safety information

found in the welding power source Owner’s Manual. Read

and follow all Safety Standards.

Only qualified persons should install, operate, maintain, and

repair this equipment. A qualified person is defined as one

who, by possession of a recognized degree, certificate, or

professional standing, or who by extensive knowledge, train-

ing and experience, has successfully demonstrated ability to

solve or resolve problems relating to the subject matter, the

work, or the project and has received safety training to recog-

nize and avoid the hazards involved.

During operation, keep everybody, especially children, away.

 Always wear dry insulating gloves.

 Insulate yourself from work and ground.

 Do not touch live electrode or electrical parts.

 Before welding, verify torch head is firmly attached to the torch

body.

 Do not wrap water-cooled torch hoses and power cables together

with tape or plastic wire ties. Wrapping restricts water flow which

can cause power cable to overheat and torch hose to burst.

 Replace worn, damaged, or cracked torches or cables.

 Turn off welding power source before changing tungsten elec-

trode or torch parts.

 Keep all covers and handle securely in place.

ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.

Arc rays from the welding process produce intense

visible and invisible (ultraviolet and infrared) rays

that can burn eyes and skin. Sparks fly off from the

weld.

ARC RAYS can burn eyes and skin.

 Wear an approved welding helmet fitted with a proper shade of filter

lenses to protect your face and eyes from arc rays and sparks

when welding or watching (see ANSI Z49.1 and Z87.1 listed in

Safety Standards).

 Wear approved safety glasses with side shields under your

helmet.

 Use protective screens or barriers to protect others from flash,

glare and sparks; warn others not to watch the arc.

 Wear body protection made from durable, flame-resistant material

(leather, heavy cotton, wool). Body protection includes oil-free

clothing such as leather gloves, heavy shirt, cuffless trousers, high

shoes, and a cap.

FUMES AND GASES can be hazardous.

 Keep your head out of the fumes.

 Ventilate area, or use breathing device. The

recommended way to determine adequate

ventilation is to sample for the composition and quantity of fumes

and gases to which personnel are exposed.

 Read and understand the Safety Data Sheets (SDSs) and the

manufacturer’s instructions for adhesives, coatings, cleaners,

consumables, coolants, degreasers, fluxes, and metals.

BUILDUP OF GAS can injure or kill.

 Shut off compressed gas supply when not in

use.

 Always ventilate confined spaces or use ap-

proved air-supplied respirator.

WELDING can cause fire or explosion.

 Do not weld near flammable material.

 Do not weld on containers that have held com-

bustibles, or on closed containers such as

tanks, drums, or pipes unless they are properly prepared ac-

cording to AWS F4.1 and AWS A6.0 (see Safety Standards).

 Watch for fire; keep extinguisher nearby.

 Read and understand the Safety Data Sheets (SDSs) and the

manufacturer’s instructions for adhesives, coatings, cleaners,

consumables, coolants, degreasers, fluxes, and metals.

HOT PARTS can burn.

 Allow torch to cool before touching.

 Do not touch hot metal.

 Protect hot metal from contact by others.

NOISE can damage hearing.

 Check for noise level limits exceeding those spe-

cified by OSHA.

 Use approved ear plugs or ear muffs if noise level

is high.

 Warn others nearby about noise hazard.

1-5. EMF Information

Electric current flowing through any conductor causes localized electric

and magnetic fields (EMF).The current from arc welding (and allied pro-

cesses including spot welding, gouging, plasma arc cutting, and induc-

tion heating operations) creates an EMF field around the welding circuit.

EMF fields can interfere with some medical implants, e.g. pacemakers.

Protective measures for persons wearing medical implants have to be

taken. For example, restrict access for passers−by or conduct individu-

al risk assessment for welders. All welders should use the following pro-

cedures in order to minimize exposure to EMF fields from the welding

circuit:

1. Keep cables close together by twisting or taping them, or using a

cable cover.

2. Do not place your body between welding cables. Arrange cables

to one side and away from the operator.

3. Do not coil or drape cables around your body.

4. Keep head and trunk as far away from the equipment in the

welding circuit as possible.

5. Connect work clamp to workpiece as close to the weld as

possible.

6. Do not work next to, sit or lean on the welding power source.

7. Do not weld whilst carrying the welding power source or wire

feeder.

About Implanted Medical Devices:

Implanted Medical Device wearers should consult their doctor and the

device manufacturer before performing or going near arc welding, spot

welding, gouging, plasma arc cutting, or induction heating operations.

If cleared by your doctor, then following the above procedures is recom-

mended.

2-5. Informations relatives aux CEM

Le courant électrique qui traverse tout conducteur génère des champs

électromagnétiques (CEM) à certains endroits. Le courant issu d’un

soudage à l’arc (et de procédés connexes, y compris le soudage par

points, le gougeage, le découpage plasma et les opérations de

chauffage par induction) crée un champ électromagnétique (CEM)

autour du circuit de soudage. Les champs électromagnétiques produits

peuvent causer interférence à certains implants médicaux, p. ex. les

stimulateurs cardiaques. Des mesures de protection pour les porteurs

d’implants médicaux doivent être prises: Limiter par exemple tout accès

aux passants ou procéder à une évaluation des risques individuels pour

les soudeurs. Tous les soudeurs doivent appliquer les procédures

suivantes pour minimiser l’exposition aux CEM provenant du circuit de

soudage:

1 Rassembler les câbles en les torsadant ou en les attachant avec

du ruban adhésif ou avec une housse.

2 Ne pas se tenir au milieu des câbles de soudage. Disposer les

câbles d’un côté et à distance de l’opérateur.

3 Ne pas courber et ne pas entourer les câbles autour de votre

corps.

4 Maintenir la tête et le torse aussi loin que possible du matériel du

circuit de soudage.

5 Connecter la pince sur la pièce aussi près que possible de la

soudure.

6 Ne pas travailler à proximité d’une source de soudage, ni

s’asseoir ou se pencher dessus.

7 Ne pas souder tout en portant la source de soudage ou le

dévidoir.

En ce qui concerne les implants médicaux :

Les porteurs d’implants doivent d’abord consulter leur médecin avant

de s’approcher des opérations de soudage à l’arc, de soudage par

points, de gougeage, du coupage plasma ou de chauffage par

induction. Si le médecin approuve, il est recommandé de suivre les pro-

cédures précédentes.

Check and be sure shielding gas is present.

Lack of high frequency; difficulty in es-

tablishing arc.

Select proper size and type of tungsten. Properly prepare tungsten according to Section 6.

Check cables and torch for cracks or bad connections. Be sure that torch cables are not close to any

grounded metal. Repair or replace necessary parts.

Check torch consumables. Be sure collet and collet body are correctly installed and tightened.

Check welding power source High Frequency control, and if necessary, check and adjust spark gaps.

Torch gas valve not working properly (if

applicable).

Have Factory Authorized Service Station/Service Distributor check valve.

No shielding gas flow from torch. Be sure valves on gas supply are open.

Check cable for kinks, blockage, or leaks.

Check and tighten all gas supply fittings.

Check cables and torch for cracked insulation or bad connections. Repair or replace (see Section 5-1).

Make sure collect is installed correctly.

Tighten collet body or gas lens before tightening backcap.

Tungsten electrode oxidizing and not re-

maining bright after conclusion of weld.

Shield weld zone from drafts.

Increase postflow time.

Increase gas flow rate. Check manufacture’s recommendations.

Check and tighten all gas fittings.

Check gas valve and flow meter/regulator.

Select proper size and type of tungsten. Properly prepare tungsten (see Section 6).

OM-282751 Page 8

Trouble Remedy

Excessive tungsten electrode con-

sumption.

Select proper size and type of tungsten. Properly prepare tungsten according to Section 6.

Check polarity setting on welding power source (see welding power source Owner’s manual).

Check for proper gas flow rate. Check manufacture’s recommendations.

If torch is water cooled, check torch and cables for water leaks. Repair or replace if necessary

(see Section 5-1).

Wandering arc Shield weld zone from drafts.

Reduce gas flow rate.

Select proper size and type of tungsten. Properly prepare tungsten according to Section 6.

When using AC, check welding power source High Frequency control setting, and increase setting if nec-

essary.

Yellow powder or smoke on cup. Use proper type shielding gas.

Check for proper gas flow rate. Check manufacture’s recommendations.

Increase postflow time.

Check torch cup size. Match cup size to joint being welded.

Erratic arc Make sure base material is clean and free of contaminates.

When using DC, check polarity, and/or polarity of welding cables.

Select proper size and type of tungsten. Properly prepare tungsten according to Section 6.

Use proper arc length. Arc length may be too long or too short.

When using AC, check welding power source High Frequency control setting, and be sure it is operating

continuously.

When using AC, slow travel speed can cause erratic arc. Adjust travel speed.

Porosity in weld. Check for proper type gas and correct flow rate. Check manufacture’s recommendations.

Check and tighten gas fittings.

Make sure base material and filler material is clean and free of contaminates.

Check for impurities and moisture in gas lines. Purge if necessary.

If torch is water cooled, check torch and cables for water leaks. Repair or replace if necessary

(see Section 5-1).

Whenever possible and practical, use DC weld output instead of AC weld output.

6-1. Selecting Tungsten Electrode (Wear Clean Gloves To Prevent Contamination Of Tungsten)

A. Select Tungsten Electrode.

 Not all tungsten electrode manufacturers use the same colors to identify tungsten type. Contact the tungsten electrode manufacturer or reference

the product packaging to identify the tungsten you are using.

B. Electrode Composition.

Tungsten Type Application Notes

2% Cerium

(Grey*)

Good all−around tungsten for both AC and DC welding.

1.5−2% Lanthanum

(Yellow/Blue)

Excellent low amp starts for AC and DC welding.

2% Thorium

(Red)

Commonly used for DC welding, not ideal for AC.

Pure Tungsten

(Green)

Not Recommended for inverters!

For best results in most applications use a sharpened cerium or lanthanum electrode for AC and DC welding.

* Color may vary depending on manufacturer, please refer to manufacturer’s guide for color designation.

OM-282751 Page 10

6-2. Preparing Tungsten Electrode For DC Electrode Negative (DCEN) Welding

Or AC Welding With Inverter Machines

Grinding the tungsten electrode produces dust and flying sparks which can cause injury and start fires.

Use local exhaust (forced ventilation) at the grinder or wear an approved respirator. Read MSDS for safety

information. Consider using tungsten containing ceria, lanthana, or yttria instead of thoria. Grinding dust

from thoriated electrodes contains low-level radioactive material. Properly dispose of grinder dust in an

environmentally safe way. Wear proper face, hand, and body protection. Keep flammables away.

Ideal Tungsten Preparation − Stable Arc

1 Grinding Wheel

Grind end of tungsten on fine grit, hard

abrasive wheel before welding. Do not use

wheel for other jobs or tungsten can become

contaminated causing lower weld quality.

2 Tungsten Electrode

A 2% ceriated tungsten is recommended.

3 Ideal Grind Angle Range: 15° to 30°

 30 degrees is the recommended elec-

trode grind angle.

4 Straight Ground

Grind lengthwise, not radial.
