TIG WELDING WITH INERT GAS (TIG MODE)
TIG welding requires gas shield protection of pure gas (Argon).

To do TIG welding, follow these steps :
1. Connect the earth clamp to the positive connector (+).
2. Connect a valve torch to the negative connector (–).
3. Connect the torch's gas hose to the gas bottle's regulator
It may be necessary to cut it before the bolt if the latter does not match the regulator.
4. Select the TIG mode (3) with the switch (5).
5. Set the desired intensity (display(1)) using the (4) keys, according to the thickness
of the metal sheet (30A/mm).
6. Set the gas flow on the gas bottle's regulator then open the torch's valve.
7. To start the arc : make contact between the electrode and the workpiece.
8. Once done wit the workpiece : quickly lift the torch, stop the gas flow after the
