Welding plastic (see figure E)
Fit the reducing nozzle (12) and the welding shoe (11) (both
accessories). The workpiece requiring welding and the weld-
ing wire (10) (accessory) must be made from the same ma-
terial (e.g. both PVC). The seam must be clean and free from
grease.
Heat the point of the seam carefully until it becomes pliable.
Note that there is not a great difference in temperature
between pliable plastic and liquid plastic.
Apply the welding wire (10) and allow it to flow into the joint
to form an even bead.
Soft Soldering (see figure F)
For spot welding, fit the reducing nozzle (12); for welding
pipes, fit the reflector nozzle (9) (both accessories).
If you are using solder without flux, apply soldering grease or
paste to the solder joint. Depending on the material, heat the
solder joint for approx. 50 to 120 seconds. Apply the solder.
The solder must be melted by the temperature of the work-
piece.
If necessary, remove the flux after the solder joint has cooled
down.
Heat-shrinking (see figure G)
Fit the reflector nozzle (9) (accessory). Choose the diameter
of the heat shrink plastic tube (13) (accessory) suitable for
the workpiece. Evenly heat the heat shrink plastic tube until
it fits closely against the workpiece.
