INTENDED USE
The KLUTCH TIG Torch is designed to connect to the KLUTCH ST-80i, KLUTCH ST-200i,
KLUTCH Mig/Stick 220Si, or other welders capable of TIG welding and use a 10-25 Dinse Style
connector. This is an air-cooled 17V style TIG torch and can be used for TIG welding up to 150
amps.
TIG welding does require the use of Argon shielding gas. The shielding gas replaces the flux
that is used in stick welding, providing a more controlled and cosmetic weld. However, TIG
welding is limited to areas inside or where wind can be controlled, preventing the shielding gas
from blowing away.
You will need to attach this unit to an appropriate TIG welder as described above. You will also
need to provide shielding gas, a gas regulator, and TIG filler rod to TIG weld with this unit.
