GRINDING PREPARATION:

Use a 60 Grit or finer aluminum

oxide wheel

Shape tungsten by grinding
logitudinally, never radially.

Remove sharp point to leave a

truncated point with a flat spot.
Diameter of flat spot determines

amperage.

The included angle determines weld
bead shape and size. Generally,
as the included angle increases,
penetration increases and bead
width decreases.
