Support Equipment Required
• C.V. or C.C. power source of sufficient capacity for your needs.
• Regulated gas supply and hoses.
• Properly sized power leads from power source to wire feeder and ground.
• Water source and hose capable of providing a minimum of 1 quart
(.95 liter) / min. at 45 p.s.i. when using water cooled torches.
Coolant Recommendations
Use a name-brand additive, which does not contain reactive sulphur or
chlorine and does not react with copper, brass or aluminum or create a
custom mix using this formula:
Use 3 Gallons (11.4 Liters) distilled water.
Use 1 Gallon (3.8 Liters) ethylene glycol.
Use 1 tsp (5 ml) liquid glycerin
The Coolant rate should be 1 quart (.95 liter) / minute at 35 p.s.i.
