CHIEF 2000 HERTZ DC INVERTER WELDER

USERS MANUAL

Welding Of Studs, Nuts And Moulding Rivets

1. Fit appropriate electrode in the pistol. (See unit compo-

nents - page 2.)

2. Clamp ground shoe to steel sheet (panel, etc.) prior to

welding a stud, nut or moulding rivet to the steel sheet.

NOTE: When applying a pistol weld, the

ground shoe must be clamped to the steel sheet to

allow a flow of current through the component (stud,

nut or moulding rivet) and the steel sheet.

3. Select program and thickness of sheet to be welded.

NOTE: The power and welding time are preset and

parameters will automatically appear on the display.

If the preset parameters have been changed set

power and time according to the chart at right or

reset the timer as indicated on page 4 to recover the

original factory settings.

4. Position the electrode at the desired location. It must be

positioned perpendicular to the welding location to pre-

vent slippage. Apply moderate pressure for nut welding

and very low pressure for welding studs and moulding

rivets. Pull trigger to weld. The trigger can be released

at any time as welding is electronically controlled.
