3.2 Connecting the Torch

1. Ensure your welding machine is powered off and disconnected from the power source.
2. Connect the 35-50mm² quick plug connector of the TIG torch cable to the corresponding receptacle on your YESWELDER machine. Ensure it is securely seated.
3. Attach the 5/8"-18 gas fitting to the gas outlet on your welding machine or external argon gas regulator. Tighten firmly to prevent leaks.
4. Select the appropriate ceramic cup, collet, and collet body for your welding application. Insert the collet and collet body into the torch head, then secure the ceramic cup. Finally, screw on the chosen back cap (long or short) to hold the tungsten electrode in place.

4. Návod k obsluze

The WP-17V TIG torch utilizes a Lift-TIG arc starting method. Always refer to your welding machine's specific manual for detailed operating parameters and safety guidelines.

4.1 Lift-TIG Arc Starting

1. Ensure proper personal protective equipment (PPE) is worn, including a welding helmet, gloves, and protective clothing.
2. Set your welding machine to TIG mode and adjust amperage according to the material thickness and tungsten size.
3. Position the tungsten electrode tip gently on the workpiece.
4. Slowly lift the torch straight up from the workpiece. The arc will initiate as the tungsten separates from the metal.
5. Pro optimální kvalitu svaru udržujte konzistentní délku oblouku a rychlost svařování.

4.2 General Welding Tips

• Ensure a clean workpiece surface, free from rust, paint, or contaminants.
• Maintain a steady hand and consistent torch angle.
• Use appropriate filler rod for the material being welded.
• Always ensure adequate ventilation in your welding area.

5. Údržba

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your TIG torch.

5.1 Čištění a kontrola

• Torch Body and Cable: Regularly wipe down the torch body and the fireproof, insulated cable jacket with a clean, dry cloth to remove dust, spatter, and debris. Inspect the jacket for any signs of damage, cuts, or wear.
• Spotřební materiál: Inspect the ceramic cup, collet, collet body, and tungsten electrode before each use. Replace any cracked, chipped, or excessively worn ceramic cups. Ensure collets and collet bodies are clean and free from obstruction.
• Spojení: Periodically check all electrical and gas connections for tightness and signs of corrosion. Loose connections can lead to poor performance or safety hazards.

5.2 Tungsten Electrode Sharpening

Sharpen tungsten electrodes to a fine point for optimal arc stability and penetration. Use a dedicated tungsten grinder to avoid contamination and ensure a consistent angle. Always grind longitudinally to the tungsten to prevent micro-grooves that can cause arc wander.

6. Řešení problémů

Pokud se během provozu setkáte s problémy, zvažte následující běžné kroky pro řešení potíží:

• Poor Arc Start: Check if the tungsten electrode is properly sharpened and extended. Ensure the collet and collet body are clean and securely holding the tungsten. Verify that the Lift-TIG function on your welder is active.
• Inconsistent Weld or Porosity: This often indicates insufficient or contaminated shielding gas. Check your argon gas supply, regulator settings, and ensure all gas connections are tight. Inspect the ceramic cup for cracks or blockages.
• Overheating Torch: Ensure the torch is not exceeding its duty cycle. Check for proper gas flow, as argon also helps cool the torch. Inspect the cable for any damage that might impede current flow.
• Žádný oblouk: Verify all electrical connections between the torch and the welding machine are secure. Check the welding machine's power supply and settings.

For persistent issues, consult your welding machine's manual or contact YESWELDER customer support.
