8. If the threads at the end of the barrel become tight, clean
them with a 9/16”-18 tap. Occasional application of high
temperature grease on the threads (both at the outlet end
of the barrel and on the spanner nut) will prevent seizing
and keep threads free.
HOW TO DISCONNECT THE WELDER:
When welding is completed, disconnect the electricity and
allow the air to flow through the welder for about four to five
minutes or until the barrel becomes cool enough to touch.
HOW TO CHANGE HEATING ELEMENTS:
Push the end of the barrel against a solid object (such as the
side of a bench). Hold the handle tightly and push inward.
The pressure on the barrel compresses the element spring,
Use the spanner wrench to loosen the spanner nut. Keep the
pressure on the handle and back off the nut all the way by
hand. Hold the barrel and place the complete welder on a
flat surface. Remove the barrel and gently pull the element
out of the handle. Grasp the socket at the end of the wire
tightly and jiggle or rock the element while pulling until the
element is completely dislodged from the socket. To reinstall
the element, reverse the above procedure. Turn the element
clockwise (about 1 ½ turns) while pushing the wire gently
back into the handle. This prevents kinking of the wire dur-
ring reinstallation. To reinstall the barrel, reverse the above
procedure.
HOW TO DISASSEMBLE THE HANDLE:
To remove the plastic grip from the handle, remove the
screw at the end of the grip. Slide the grip back over the
hose. Hold the handle firmly and grasp the tail piece and
hose. Use a slight twisting motion while pulling back until it
becomes free. Then the wire and socket can be completely
removed. To reassemble, reverse the above procedure, mak-
ing sure to line up the screw holes in the tail piece and the
handle.
