NOTE
• The type and quantity of the shielding gas depends on the welding task
and the gas nozzle geometry.
• To prevent the shielding gas supply from becoming clogged by
impurities, the cylinder valve must be opened briefly, before connecting
the cylinder. This will blow out any impurities that may be present.
• Make all shielding gas connections gas-tight.
1 Connect shielding gas cylinder to the current source.
2 Set the gas quantity on the pressure reducer of the shielding gas cylinder.
Applies only to liquid-cooled TIG welding torches.
WARNING

Risk of burns

TIG welding torches will become overheated if the coolant level is too low.
• Wear protective gloves.
• Check the coolant level at regular intervals.
NOTE
• Make sure that the coolant supply and return have been installed
properly. Coolant supply = blue, Coolant return = red.
• Do not use any deionized or demineralized water as coolant or for
tightness or flow tests.
This may impair the service life of your welding torch.
• We recommend the use of ABICOR BINZEL series BTC coolant for
liquid-cooled welding torches.
