• Note the polarity change in DC TIG welding:
• TIG torch connection to power source minus (–) pole
TTM 150V BC TIG torch using procedure
• Open TIG torch gas valve
• Ignite the arc touching the work piece lightly with TIG electrode
• In lift TIG, ignite by lifting the electrode that is resting on the work piece
• Generally used TIG welding arc length is TIG electrodes Ø…½ Ø
• In the moment of TIG electrode contact the current is low
• TIG electrode release is easy because of low ignition current
• Fast automatic current rise to the set welding current
• If electrode contact with the work piece exceeds 1 second
• Automatic shutoff prevents TIG electrode damage
• Stop welding by lifting electrode and the arc will be extinguished

Troubleshooting The control panel will display any errors of the system. Error code numbers are shown
in the display and can be compared to the table below.
Power On light is not illuminated
• There is no electrical power to the machine.
• Check the mains electrical supply is connected.
• Check the mains fuses, replace blown fuses.
• Check the mains cable and plug, replace defect parts.
• The machine is not welding properly. Welding creates spatter. The weld joint is porous or power supply
is insufficient.
• Check the welding parameter settings and adjust if needed. See welding parameter table on
page 9.
• Check that the earth return clamp is properly fastened and that earth return cable has no
defects. If necessary change the clamp location and replace defective parts.
• Check the welding cable and connector. Tighten the connection(s) and replace defective parts.
Power source overheating pilot lamp is illuminated
• Power source has exceeded the designed working temperature. Fans are running and the machine is
in a cooling down cycle. The machine will reset automatically.
• Check that there is enough free space around the machine for cooling air circulation.
• In some cases when error occurs, the machine turns off. Then user must turn the main switch off
and on again.
• Check that welding circuit is open.
