Sharpening the tungsten electrode depends on wear and must therefore be
carried out when required.

Sharpening the tungsten electrode
To sharpen the tungsten electrode, use a sharpening device with a diamond
wheel. In doing so, observe the following:
• The point is sharpened longitudinally through the center axis.
• Automatic regulation of the tungsten electrode drive by gravity.
• Can be set for all electrode diameters.
• Continuous adjustment of the angle.
