Using the mini wand (optional) to clean and passivate

Using the mini wand (optional) to clean and passivate
Use the mini wand to get into tight places where the hand
wand cannot go. Plug the mini wand into the accessory
outlet on the front panel.

A) Selecting the proper mode

Mini
wand
When this mode is selected, it automatically cuts the power
to the hand wand, stops the solution pump and the fume
elimination system (if connected) from operating. Only
power is provided to the mini wand/marking wand outlet.
Be sure work piece is grounded.
B) Selecting the proper current type, AC or DC
AC for cleaning and passivating the weld.
DC for cleaning, passivating and polishing the weld:
The cleaning and passivating process takes longer in the
DC mode than in the AC mode and requires more elec-
trolyte cleaning solution to prevent premature wear of the
cleaning pads and tips as well as preventing white haloes
on the parent material.
WARNING! DC mode is used to polish the weld bead to
match the mirror finish of the 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 mini wand uses a manual pumping mode only. One
(1) press equals one (1) pump. To pump more liquid, press
repeatedly. See mini wand instructions for more information.
D) Cleaning and passivating
Screw in SURFOX electrolyte solution 100 ml tube onto the
mini 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.
