2014/35/UE Electrical equipment designed for use within certain voltage limits
The ambient air shall not contain abnormal quantities of dust, acids, gas or corrosive substances. Fumes due to
welding are considered to be normal.
Ensure that air can enter and leave when using the equipment.

3. Installation
3. 1. Handling
The machine is delivered in a packing case with protection, etc. This packaging is specific to the machine. The
original packaging must be kept for use each time the machine is transported in order to prevent damage.
When the machine is not used and removed from its support, it should be stored on a suitable support away
from any impacts (or in its packaging).
The user is responsible for the installation and use of the arc
welding equipment in accordance with the manufacturer’s
instructions. If electromagnetic interference is detected, it must
be the responsibility of the user of the arc welding equipment to
resolve matters, with technical assistance from the manufacturer
(extract of standard EN 60974-10 2008 – Annex A).
Before using the machine, check the bundle. Too sharp an angle
can pinch the coolant and gas hoses. Limit this angle to 90° for
optimum operation.
4. Use
When not using the torch, it must be stored in the storage rack
provided for this purpose. It is important to keep the torch stored
to avoid any damaging shocks.
4. 2. Electrodes
The electrode supplied by Polysoude is made of tungsten alloy with additional elements such as lanthane. It
produces easier ignition and greater arc stability.
To maintain a stable and concentrated welding arc, tungsten electrodes must have a conical end. The diameter of
the electrode, its grinding angle and the diameter of the flat tip depend on the intensity of the welding current.
Electrodes used for the same application must have a constant geometry in order to guarantee repeatability of
results. This is essential when using equipment with the AVC function.
The end of the electrode must always incorporate a flat tip. The shape of the end of the electrode is a determining
factor for arc ignition (this must be checked at regular intervals).
The diameter and the shape of the tip of the electrode are dependent on the intensity of the welding current.
Grinding must be carried out along the centreline of the electrode. The use of a bench grinder ensures that the
operation is straightforward, fast and to a high standard.
The length and the diameter of the electrode must be compatible with the type of gas lens and the thickness of
the tube. Each electrode can withstand a maximum current.

• Insert the electrode (1) into the chuck (2) with the electrode tip at the same end
as the slots in the chuck.
• Fit this assembly in the gas lens (3). The chuck and gas lens must be compatible
with the electrode diameter.
• Mount the gas lens unit on the WP27 torch (5), remembering to insert the seal
(4).
• Screw the CLS nozzle (6) onto the torch.
• Before fitting the V2 nozzle (7), make sure that the gas box O-ring is in place.
• Screw the V2 nozzle assembly (7) onto the WP27 torch.
• Connect the trailing gas supply (8) for the gas box to the bundle connection
plate.
• Connect the outward (9) and return (10) V2 nozzle coolant circuit to the bundle
connection plate.

Our machines incorporate electrical and electronic components which must be recycled in accordance with
Directive 2002/96/EC. Any item of equipment which is declared obsolete or out of service must be sent to
approved recycling companies in order to reduce the amount of ultimate waste disposal. A number of solutions
may be deployed, including:
• Reuse
• Recycling
• Any other form of recovery (including energy recovery) of WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic
Equipment).
