Horizontal Welding
When welding in the 2G or 2F position it is necessary to control the weld puddle and
travel speed to produce a strong weld. The horizontal position is used widely in
agricultural sectors to make repairs.
The steps necessary to perform welds in the 2G or 2F position are:
-Secure the plate in a position for running beads in a straight line from left to right. Use
adjustable locking piers or C-clamps to secure the metal firmly.
-When performing this type of weld, the electrode and the plate sides should form a 90º
angle. Lean the electrode slightly in the direction of the weld area.
-Adjust the amperage, travel speed, and arc length to prevent the weld puddle from
running or sagging.
-Metal that is over 1/8 inch thick should be beveled prior to welding in the horizontal
position. If welding thicker metal, or metal that has been beveled, it is necessary to
make more than one weld pass to enhance the strength of the weld.
-A root, filler, and cap pass will be necessary.

INFORMATION SHEET NO. 1.3-1


Vertical Welding
There are two basic techniques for performing welds in the vertical position. These two
techniques are commonly referred to as “vertical up” and “vertical down.” These two
techniques can be used to perform welds in the 3G and 3F positions.
The following is a set of instructions for performing “vertical up” and “vertical down”
welds. For most welders, light metal is easier to weld than heavy metal because it
requires less penetration.
Be certain that the metal plate is secured in a vertical position. The use of adjustable
locking pliers or C-clamps is recommended to aid in securing the metal in position.
Position the electrode at an angle of 60º to the plate and in the path of the weld. The
electrode should be perpendicular to the sides of the plate.
For “vertical down” welding, begin at the top of the plate with a short arc. If the
electrode sticks, stop and increase the amperage. If the electrode burns through the
metal, lower the amperage. If the electrode continues to burn through the metal,
increase the speed of the electrode movement downward.

When welding “vertical up”, position the electrode 85º to the plate in the path of the
weld. Begin at the bottom of the plate and work up. Use the same procedures if the
electrode sticks or burns through the metal.

As you become better at welding in the 3G and 3F positions, begin work on thicker
metals. Experiment and increase the amperage accordingly. When welding thick plate,
use one or more side-to-side electrode movements.
As with fillet welds, “vertical up” and “vertical down” welds will need more than one
pass. A root pass should be made, along with a filler and cap pass.

INFORMATION SHEET NO. 1.4


Overhead Welding
Welding in the 4G or 4F position is the most difficult of the out-ofposition welds. The
major challenge in this type of welding is controlling the weld puddle. The procedures
for performing overhead welds are very similar to the flat position, except that they are
far more difficult. It is necessary to pay special attention to the weld puddle and travel
speed. You must maintain a short arc as well.
The steps in overhead welding are:
Secure the metal overhead with the use of an adjustable locking pliers or C-clamps.
Find a position that is comfortable for you before starting to weld. Welding in the 4G or
4F position is much more difficult if the welder is uncomfortable from the start.
Adjust the amperage setting and travel speed. The amperage should be set at
approximately the same setting as needed during vertical welding (3). Be certain to
maintain a very short arc length throughout the entire process.
Weld with a short arc and use a moderately fast rate of travel to prevent sagging and
undercutting.

A weaving pattern is recommended for use on heavier metals. This motion must be
faster than weaves used for other position welds.
Three passes will be needed to complete this weld properly.
