Use the micro-wand to get into tight places where the large
wand cannot go. Plug the micro wand into the accessory
outlet on the front panel.

A) Selecting the proper wand and accessory

Large
Micro-
graphite
wand
insert
Brush
Tungsten
insert
When this mode is selected, it automatically cuts the power
to the large wand, stops the solution pump and the fume
elimination system (if connected) from operating. Only
power is provided to the micro wand/marking wand outlet.
Be sure work piece is grounded.
B) Selecting the proper current type, AC or DC
and proper current level, STD or MAX
MAX
STD
AC for cleaning and passivating the weld.
DC for cleaning, passivating and polishing the weld.
STD is recommended when using the tungsten inserts and
pads, MAX is recommended when using the brush or the
large graphite insert.
WARNING! DC mode is used to polish the weld bead to
match the mirror finish of the parent material.
TIP! When using the polishing mode (DC), use plenty
of SURFOX electrolyte solution.
Note: When using DC setting, the SURFOX electrolyte solu-
tion will become slightly yellow or will darken.

C) Manual pumping mode

The micro-wand uses a manual pumping mode only. One (1)
press equals one (1) stroke. To pump more liquid, press re-
peatedly. See micro wand instructions for more information.

D) Cleaning and passivating

Screw in SURFOX electrolyte solution 100 ml tube onto the
micro-wand. Make sure the cleaning pad is saturated with
solution before starting to work.
If the cleaning pad is too dry,
it will wear prematurely. Start
working when solution drips
from the cleaning pad.
Do not press hard, let the
electrochemical process do
the work. The cleaning pad is
a bridge between the machine
and the weld. Do not use the
cleaning pad like an abrasive
pad.

E) Neutralizing

1. Remove any excess of SURFOX electrolyte cleaning
solution using a soft clean cloth.
2. Spray SURFOX-N on the surface.
3. Wipe dry with another soft clean cloth to avoid cross
contamination.
Refer to neutralization procedure in neutralization section for
instructions on how to properly neutralize.
