surfaces where parts are to be installed.

When it is necessary to work under the machine with the body


(bed) raised, attach the body (bed) retaining cables to the rear
tow points. Install the rear tow point pins through the ends of
the retaining cables.

Failure to properly secure the body (bed) may result in personal


injury or death.

Personal injury can result from working with cleaning solvent.

Because of the volatile nature of many cleaning solvents,


extreme caution must be exercised when using them. If unsure
about a particular cleaning fluid, refer to the manufacturer's
instructions and directions.

Always wear protective clothing and eye protection when


working with cleaning solvents.

Protect yourself and others; read and understand this warning.


Fumes and gases can be dangerous to your health. Ultraviolet
rays from the weld arc can injure eyes and burn skin. Electric
shock can kill.

Read and understand the manufacturer's instruction and your


employer's safety practices. Keep your head out of the fumes.
Use ventilation, exhaust at the arc, or both, to keep fumes and
gases from your breathing zone and the general area. Wear
correct eye, ear and body protection. Do not touch live electric
parts.

Welding Specifications and Qualifications

Protect yourself and others; read and understand this warning.


Fumes and gases can be dangerous to your health. Ultraviolet
rays from the weld arc can injure eyes and burn skin. Electric
shock can kill.

Read and understand the manufacturer's instruction and your


employer's safety practices. Keep your head out of the fumes.
Use ventilation, exhaust at the arc, or both, to keep fumes and
gases from your breathing zone and the general area. Wear
correct eye, ear and body protection. Do not touch live electric
parts.

Refer to the American National Standard Z49.1, "Safety in


Welding and Cutting" published by the American Welding
Society, 2501 N.W. 7th Street, Miami, Florida 33125: OSHA Safety
and Health Standards, 29 CFR 1910, available from U.S. Dept. of
Labor, Washington D.C. 20210.

Note: Personal breathing protection should be worn by the personnel that are welding. Personal
breathing protection will prevent fumes from entering the lungs of the person that is welding. Use a
237-5181 Respirator for breathing protection.

Qualifications
Welders must be qualified for the appropriate type of weld that is being performed. Welders must be
qualified for the appropriate position of weld that is being performed. Welders must be qualified for
the welding process that is being utilized: Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW) and Flux Cored Arc
Welding (FCAW). Refer to Specification ANSI/AWS D1.1 for information that regards qualification
requirements. The welders must have used the process at some time within the last 6 months. The

5/11/23, 10:27 SIS 2.0

welders must complete the process of certification if the welders have not used the welding
processes for 6 months.

Proper Welding Procedure on Machines and Engines with


Electronic Controls
Proper precautions are necessary to prevent damage to electronic controls. When you weld on a
machine with electronic controls, use the steps that follow:

1. Turn off the engine. Put the key start switch in the OFF position.

2. If the machine has a battery disconnect switch, open the switch. If the machine does not have a
battery disconnect switch, disconnect the negative battery cable at the battery.

3. Attach the clamp for the ground cable as close as possible to the area that is being welded.
This process will reduce the likelihood of damage from the welding current to the following
components: bearings, hydraulic components, and electrical components. DO NOT weld
plates to the frame for grounding/clamping purposes. Use existing blocks, brackets,
bosses, and so on, to attach the clamp.
Note: Do NOT use electrical components as a ground point for the welder. Do NOT use ground
points for electronic components as a ground point for the welder.

4. Protect the wiring harnesses and machine surfaces from sparks and welding spatter.

Area Preparation
The area to be welded shall be clean, dry, and free of the following contaminants:

Oil

Grease

Paint

Dirt

Rust

Any fluids or moisture

All welding shall be conducted on base material heated and maintained at a minimum temperature
of 15.6° C (60° F).

Note: Heating instructions (preheat, interpass, and postheat) for any specific repair shall override
the minimum 15.6° C (60° F) requirement.

5/11/23, 10:27 SIS 2.0

Note: Heat distortion of the base metal is possible when you weld. Avoid excessive heating of the
base metal.

Welding Electrodes and Parameters


Flux Cored Welding Electrode for the FCAW Process
Use the Flux Cored Arc Welding (FCAW) with E71T-1 H8 (ANSI/A5.20) welding electrode and the
manufacturer's shielding gases that are specified (typically 75% argon and 25% carbon dioxide).
The H8 implies that the electrode is designed to provide less than 8 ml/100 g of diffusible hydrogen
in the weld deposit. The weld that is deposited by the flux cored welding electrode will have the
following minimum mechanical properties:

Table 1

Mechanical Properties from Flux Cored Welding Electrode That Is Classified as


"ANSI/AWS A5.20 E71T-1 H8"
Tensile Strength 480 MPa (70000 psi)
Yield Strength 400 MPa (58000 psi)
Elongation 22%
Impact Toughness 27 J @ -18 °C (20 ft lb @ -0 °F)

The table that follows show the recommended parameter range for out of position welding in the
field for flux cored welding electrode diameter.

Table 2

Welding Current for Flux Cored Welding Electrode that Is 1.2 mm (0.045 inch)

Wire Feed Rate Voltage Amperage


7620 mm (300 inch) Per Minute to 10,160 mm (400 inch) Per Minute 24 to 28 190 to 240

Note: The settings listed above are recommendations based on experience from welding in the
horizontal, vertical-up, and overhead positions. Slight changes in the voltage and amperage may be
necessary due to welding position and various formulations by different electrode manufacturers.
The use of higher parameters than specified for welding in the flat position is acceptable.

Use a polarity setting of DC reverse polarity. Remove the slag after each welding pass. The fast
freezing characteristics of flux cored welding electrode increases the possibility of evolving gas that
is trapped in the weld. Control the size of the weld to reduce the possibility of evolving gas that is
trapped in the weld. The maximum size weld per pass shall be equivalent to that of a 8.0 mm
(.32 inch) fillet weld.

Low Hydrogen Electrodes for the SMAW Process


As an alternative process or when wind conditions are a factor, use SMAW and low hydrogen
electrodes that meet the following requirements.

Table 3

Mechanical Properties of Welds from Low Hydrogen Electrodes That Are


Classified as "ANSI/AWS A5.1 E7018H4R"
Tensile Strength 480 MPa (70000 psi)
Yield Strength 400 MPa (58000 psi)
Elongation 22%
Impact Toughness 27 J @ -29 °C (20 ft lb @ -20 °F)

Low hydrogen electrodes must be stored in an electrode oven at 120 °C (250 °F) when not in use. If
low hydrogen electrodes get damp, scrap the low hydrogen electrodes or recondition the low
hydrogen electrodes to the manufacturer's specifications.

The table that follows shows the settings for the welding current based on electrode diameter.

Table 4

Welding Current for Low Hydrogen Electrodes


Diameter Amperage Rating
3.2 mm (1/8 inch) 105-155
4.0 mm (5/32 inch) 130-200
4.8 mm (3/16 inch) 200-275

Use a polarity setting of DC reverse polarity. Remove the slag after each pass of the welding
electrode. The width of the weld shall not exceed two times the electrode diameter.

the inside/outside window plates and subsequent TIG dressing can be completed at
20° C (68° F) is maintained throughout the entire welding procedure.
Note: The use of heating elements (such as a flexible ceramic pad) is the best method
for pre-heat and inter-pass temperature control. If utilizing a gas torch, wait 1 minute
after removing the heat source before measuring the base metal temperature.
6. The crack (and sound metal 50 mm (2.00 inch) beyond each end of the crack) shall be
removed by gouging and/or grinding. Caution shall be used to avoid excessive removal of the
surrounding base material. Areas that are gouged by air carbon arc torch shall be later ground
and cleaned prior to welding to remove all carbon absorption or contamination. Gouged areas
requiring rewelding shall have a root radius of not less than 5 mm (0.20 inch) and a Single V -
60 degree included angle joint preparation to allow the welder reasonable access to reinstate
the weld.

7. Use PT or MT to inspect the gouged and ground area to ensure that the crack has been
removed before welding commences.

8. Repair the prepared groove utilizing the recommendations provided in the "Welding Electrodes
and Parameters" Section in this Special Instruction.

Remove the slag after each weld pass

Utilize stringer bead technique

All vertical welding (SMAW and FCAW) shall be vertical up progression

Stagger weld starts and stops when completing multi-pass fillet welds and groove welds

9. Clean the weld area. Inspect the area that was welded. All weld quality shall conform to the
criteria specified in the "Weld Inspection and Acceptance Criteria" section in this Special
Instruction.
