Refer to illustrations on pages 13 and 15.
1. Set POWER control to STANDBY. Always use this setting
when connecting the clamp or changing the tip.
2. Ensure the power cord is connected to a suitable 110V
or 240V AC power outlet and connected to the TIG Brush
power socket.
3. Turn the On/Off switch to ON. The On/Off switch should
immediately be illuminated. If this does not occur, refer
to the “Troubleshooting” section.
4. Make sure the brush tip has its insulating shroud and the
insulation on the wand is undamaged.
5. Ensure the TIG Brush is switched on and all equipment is
correctly connected as described above in section 4.2.
6. Select power level and operating mode using the rotary
switches. See section 5 below for details.
7. Dip brush in cleaning fl uid and apply brush tip to weld
area to be cleaned. Use only recommended cleaning
fl uids, see S7.2.
8. Ensure brush and work area remain wet with the fl uid
during cleaning.
9. Apply brush only for as long as necessary to remove
discolouration. Prolonged application may affect
surface quality.
10. Some light sparking may occur where brush tip contacts
workpiece, particularly on higher power settings, and this
is normal. Excessive sparking for a prolonged time in one
area may cause surface pitting.
11. When desired surface fi nish is achieved, turn the TIG
Brush Power Control to OFF.
12. After use put the brush down on a non-fl ammable
surface as it may be very hot.
13. Be careful touching the work as it may be hot.
14. Rinse thoroughly with clean water to remove all traces of
cleaning fl uid. To ensure acidic residue is removed, use
the recommended Ensitech neutralising fl uid, see S7.3.
