6. Assembling the welding
screen
(Fig. 3-9)
•
Place the welding glass (l) and the transparent 
safety glass (m) over it in the frame for the 
safety glass (k) (Fig. 3).
•
Press the safety glass retaining pins (q) into 
the holes in welding screen frame (s) from the 
outside. (Fig. 4)
•
Place the frame for the safety glass (k) with 
the welding glass (l) and transparent safety 
glass (m) from the inside into the recess in the 
welding frame (s), press the safety glass retai-
ning bushes (n) onto the safety glass retaining 
pins (q) until they engage to secure the frame 
for the safety glass (k). The transparent safety 
glass (m) must be on the outside. (Fig. 5)
•
Bend the top of the welding screen frame (s) 
inwards (Fig. 6/1) and fold down the top 
corners (Fig. 6/2). Now bend the outer sides 
of the welding screen frame (s) inwards (Fig. 
6/3) and connect them by pressing the top 
corners and outer sides together. When the 
retaining pins engage, you should be able to 
hear 2 clear clicks on each side (Fig. 6/4).
•
When the top corners of the welding screen 
are connected as shown in Figure 7, place 
the screws for the handle (p) from the outside 
through the three holes in the welding screen. 
(Fig. 8)
•
Turn over the welding screen and place the
handle (r) over the threads on the three screws 
for the handle (p). Secure the handle (r) to 
the welding screen using the three nuts for the 
handle (o). (Fig. 9)
7. Welding preparations
Connect the earth terminal (4) direct to the part 
to be welded or to the support on which the part 
is resting. Ensure that the earth terminal is in direct 
contact with the part to be welded. You should 
therefore avoid coated surfaces and/or insula-
ted materials. The electrode holder cable has a 
special clamp (electrode holder (5)) at one end, 
which is used to secure the electrode. The welding 
screen (8) must be used at all times for welding. It 
protects your eyes from the radiation emitted by 
the arc and nevertheless enables you to watch the 
welding process.
8. Welding
After you have made all the electrical connections 
for the power supply and for the welding circuit, 
you can proceed as follows:
Insert the unsheathed end of the electrode into the 
electrode holder (5) and connect the earth termi-
nal (4) to the part you wish to weld. Ensure that a 
good electric contact is made.
Switch on the welding set at the ON/OFF switch 
(3) and set the welding current using the setting 
wheel (6) to suit the electrode you wish to use. 
Hold the welding screen in front of your face and 
rub the tip of the electrode on the part you wish 
to weld as if you were striking a match. This is the 
best method of igniting the arc.
Check on a test part that you have the correct 
electrode and current strength.
