Welding produces fumes and gases. Breathing these fumes and gases can be hazardous to your health. 1. Keep your head out of the fumes. Do not breathe the fumes. 2. If inside, ventilate the area and/or use exhaust at the arc to remove welding fumes and gases. 3. If ventilation is poor, use an approved air-supplied respirator. 4. Read the Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDSs) and the manufacturer's instruction for metals, consumables, coatings, and cleaners. 5. Work in a confined space only if it is well ventilated, or while wearing an air-supplied respirator. Shielding gases used for welding can displace air causing injury or death. Be sure the breathing air is safe. 6. Do not weld in locations near degreasing, cleaning, or spraying operations. The heat and rays of the arc can react with vapours to form highly toxic and irritating gases. 7. Do not weld on coated metals, such as galvanized, lead, or cadmium plated steel, unless the coating is removed from the weld area, the area is well ventilated, and if necessary, while wearing an air-supplied respirator. The coatings and any metals containing these elements can give off toxic fumes if welded. WELDING WARNING WELDING CAN CAUSE FIRE OR EXPLOSION. Sparks and spatter fly off from the welding arc. The flying sparks and hot metal, weld spatter, hot workpiece, and hot equipment can cause fires and burns. Accidental contact of electrode or welding wire to metal objects can cause sparks, overheating, or fire. 1. Protect yourself and others from flying sparks and hot metal. 2. Do not weld where flying sparks can strike flammable material. 3. Remove all flammables within 15 m of the welding arc. If this is not possible, tightly cover them with approved leather or heat resistant covers. 4. Be alert that welding sparks and hot materials from welding can easily go through small cracks and openings to adjacent areas. 5. Watch for fire, and keep a fire extinguisher nearby. 6. Be aware that welding on a ceiling, floor, bulkhead, or partition can cause fire on the hidden side. 7. Do not weld on closed containers such as tanks or drums. 8. Connect work cable to the work as close to the welding area as practical to prevent welding current from travelling long, possibly unknown paths and causing electric shock and fire hazards. 9. Do not use welder to thaw frozen pipes. 10. Welding MIG Wire is sharp and can pierce skin easily, make sure you cut off the welding wire at the contact tip when not in use. Be careful were you place the MIG gun after welding, as it will be very hot and if laid down on flammable work surfaces such as wooden or plastic tables, melting and fires can occur. Do not touch the end of the MIG GUN or the Work Return Clamp after welding as they part will be hot and can cause serious burns. 10 | CIGWELD.COM.AU CIGWELD.COM.AU | 11 BLUEVENOM MG130 OPERATING MANUAL FLYING SPARKS AND HOT METAL WARNING FLYING SPARKS & HOT METAL CAN CAUSE INJURY. Sparks and spatter fly off from the welding arc. The flying sparks and hot metal, weld spatter, hot workpiece, and hot equipment can cause fires and burns. Accidental contact of electrode or welding wire to metal objects can cause sparks, overheating, or fire. 1. Wear approved face shield or safety goggles. Side shields recommended. 2. Wear proper body protection to protect skin. MOVING PARTS WARNING MOVING PARTS CAN CAUSE INJURY. Moving parts, such as fans, rotors, and belts can cut fingers and hands and catch loose clothing. 1. Keep all doors, panels, covers, and guards closed and securely in place. 2. Turn off input power before installing or connecting unit. 3. Have only qualified people remove guards or covers for maintenance and troubleshooting as necessary. 4. Keep hands, hair, loose clothing, and tools away from moving parts. 5. Reinstall panels or guards and close doors when servicing is finished and before reconnecting the power and switching on. WARNING This product, when used for welding or cutting,produces fumes or gases which contain chemicals known to the State of California to cause birth defects and, in some cases, cancer. (California Health & Safety code Sec. 25249.5 et seq.) NOTE Considerations About Welding And The Effects of Low Frequency Electric and Magnetic Fields. WARNING The procedures below are among those also normally recommended for pacemaker wearers. Consult your doctor for complete information. The following is a quotation from the General Conclusions Section of the U.S. Congress, Office of Technology Assessment, Biological Effects of Power Frequency Electric & Magnetic Fields - Background Paper, OTA-BP-E-63 (Washington, DC: U.S. Government Printing Office, May 1989): "...there is now a very large volume of scientific findings based on experiments at the cellular level and from studies with animals and people which clearly establish that low frequency magnetic fields and interact with, and produce changes in, biological systems. While most of this work is of very high quality, the results are complex. Current scientific understanding does not yet allow us to interpret the evidence in a single coherent framework. Even more frustrating, it does not yet allow us to draw definite conclusions about questions of possible risk or to offer clear science- based advice on strategies to minimize or avoid potential risks." To reduce magnetic fields in the workplace, use the following procedures: 1. Keep all doors, panels, covers, and guards closed and securely in place. 2. Turn off input power before installing or connecting unit. 3. Have only qualified people remove guards or covers for maintenance and troubleshooting as necessary. 4. Keep hands, hair, loose clothing, and tools away from moving parts. 5. Reinstall panels or guards and close doors when servicing is finished and before starting engine.

WARNING FALLING EQUIPMENT can cause serious personal injury and equipment damage 16 | CIGWELD.COM.AU OPERATING MANUAL BLUEVENOM MG130 2.09 DUTY CYCLE The rated duty cycle of a Welding Power Source, is a statement of the time it may be operated at its rated welding current output without exceeding the temperature limits of the insulation of the component parts. To explain the 10 minute duty cycle period the following example is used. Suppose a Welding Power Source is designed to operate at a 20% duty cycle, 130 amperes at 20.5 volts. This means that it has been designed and built to provide the rated amperage (130) for 2 minutes, i.e. arc welding time, out of every 10 minute period (20% of 10 minutes is 2 minutes). During the other 8 minutes of the 10 minute period the Welding Power Source must idle and be allowed to cool. 2.10 SPECIFICATIONS DESCRIPTION Packaged Part Number Power Source Dimensions Power Source Weight Cooling Welder Type Standards Number of Phases Nominal Supply Voltage Nominal Supply Frequency BLUEVENOM MG130 W1202130 (L) 350mm x (W) 140mm x (H) 225mm 4.5kg Fan Cooled Gasless MIG Welder AS 60974.1:2020 / IEC 60974-1:2019 EN 60974-10:2014/ A1:2015 Single Phase 230/240 VAC ± 10% 50/60Hz DESCRIPTION BLUEVENOM MG130 Welding Current Range (MIG mode) 30-130A Nominal DC Open Circuit Voltage MIG 43V Weld Mode Effective Input Current (I1eff) refer Note 2 10 Amps (230VAC) 9.6 Amps (240VAC) Maximum Input Current (I1max) 22.4 Amps (230VAC) 21.4 Amps (240VAC) Minimum Single Phase Generator Recommendation (refer Note 4) 6kVA@0.8PF MIG (GMAW) Welding Output, 40°C, 10 min 130A @ 20%, 20.5V 75A @ 60%, 17.8V 58A @ 100%, 16.9V Protection Class IP21S NOTE 1 Due to variations that can occur in manufactured products, claimed performance, voltages, ratings, all capacities, measurements, dimensions and weights quoted are approximate only. Achievable capacities and ratings in use and operation will depend upon correct installation, use, applications, maintenance and service. NOTE 2 The Effective Input Current should be used for the determination of cable size & supply requirements. NOTE 3 Motor start fuses or thermal circuit breakers are recommended for this application. Check local requirements for your situation in this regard. NOTE 4 Minimum Generator Recommendation at the Maximum Output Duty Cycle. Due to large variations in performance and specifications of different brands and types of generators, CIGWELD cannot guarantee full welding output power or duty cycle on every brand or type of generator. Some small generators incorporate low cost circuit breakers on their outputs. These circuit breakers usually will have a small reset button, and will trip much faster than a switchboard type circuit breaker. This may result in not being able to achieve full output or duty cycle from the power source / generator combination. For this reason we recommend a generator that incorporates switchboard type circuit breakers. CIGWELD recommends that when selecting a generator, that the particular power source / generator combination be adequately trialled to ensure the combination performs to the users expectations. NOTE 5 CIGWELD reserves the right to change product performance and specifications without notice. NOTE 6 If an extension lead is required to be used it is recommended to use a minimum size of 1.5mm2 Heavy Duty Extension Lead. Longer extension leads may impact welding performance and operation.

A. Examples of environments with increased hazard of electric shock are: 1. In locations in which freedom of movement is restricted, so that the operator is forced to perform the work in a cramped (kneeling, sitting or lying) position with physical contact with conductive parts. 2. In locations which are fully or partially limited by conductive elements, and in which there is a high risk of unavoidable or accidental contact by the operator. B. Environments with increased hazard of electric shock do not include places where electrically conductive parts in the near vicinity of the operator, which can cause increased hazard, have been insulated. 3.02 LOCATION Be sure to locate the welder according to the following guidelines: A. In areas, free from moisture and dust. B. Ambient temperature between -10° C to 40° C. C. In areas, free from oil, steam and corrosive gases. D. In areas, not subjected to abnormal vibration or shock. E. In areas, not exposed to direct sunlight or rain. F. Place at a distance of 300mm or more from walls or similar that could restrict natural air flow for cooling. 3.03 VENTILATION Since the inhalation of welding fumes can be harmful, ensure that the welding area is effectively ventilated. 3.04 MAINS SUPPLY VOLTAGE REQUIREMENTS The Mains Supply Voltage should be within ± 15% of the rated Mains Supply Voltage. If actual Mains Supply Voltage is outside this range Welding Current may not be available and may cause internal components to fail. Refer to Specifications on page 17 for Supply Voltage information. The Welding Power Source must be: · Correctly installed, if necessary, by a qualified electrician. · Correctly earthed (electrically) in accordance with local regulations. · Connected to the correct size power point and fuse as per the Specifications on page 17. IMPORTANT NOTE! This product has been fitted with a supply plug as indicated in Section 2.10. Note that the welding output range applicable with the fitted supply plug is detailed in Section 2.10. 20 | CIGWELD.COM.AU OPERATING MANUAL BLUEVENOM MG130 WARNING Any electrical work must be carried out by a qualified Electrical Tradesperson 3.05 GENERATORS Refer to Note 4 on page 17 for recommendations when using with a Generator. 3.06 EXTENSION LEADS If an extension lead is required to be used it is recommended to use a minimum size of 1.5mm² Heavy Duty Extension Lead. Longer extension leads may impact welding performance and operation. 3.07 ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY WARNING Extra precautions for Electromagnetic Compatibility may be required when this Welding Power Source is used in a domestic situation. B. ASSESSMENT OF AREA Before installing welding equipment, the user shall make an assessment of potential electromagnetic problems in the surrounding area. The following shall be taken into account 1. Other supply cables, control cables, signalling and telephone cables; above, below and adjacent to the welding equipment. 2. Radio and television transmitters and receivers. 3. Computer and other control equipment. 4. Safety critical equipment, e.g. guarding of industrial equipment. 5. The health of people around, e.g. the use of pacemakers and hearing aids. 6. Equipment used for calibration and measurement. 7. The time of day that welding or other activities are to be carried out. 8. The immunity of other equipment in the environment: the user shall ensure that other equipment being used in the environment is compatible: this may require additional protection measures. The size of the surrounding area to be considered will depend on the structure of the building and other activities that are taking place. The surrounding area may extend beyond the boundaries of the premises. A. INSTALLATION AND USE - USERS RESPONSIBILITY The user is responsible for installing and using the welding equipment according to the manufacturer's instructions. If electromagnetic disturbances are detected then it shall be the responsibility of the user of the welding equipment to resolve the situation with the technical assistance of the manufacturer. In some cases this remedial action may be as simple as earthing the welding circuit. In other cases it could involve constructing an electromagnetic screen enclosing the Welding Power Source and the work, complete with associated input filters. In all cases, electromagnetic disturbances shall be reduced to the point where they are no longer troublesome. C. METHODS OF REDUCING ELECTROMAGNETIC EMISSIONS 1. Mains Supply Welding equipment should be connected to the mains supply according to the manufacturer's recommendations. If interference occurs, it may be necessary to take additional precautions such as filtering of the mains supply. Consideration should be given to shielding the supply cable of permanently installed welding equipment in metallic conduit or equivalent. Shielding should be electrically continuous throughout it's length. The shielding should be connected to the Welding Power Source so that good electrical contact is maintained between the conduit and the Welding Power Source enclosure. CIGWELD.COM.AU | 21 BLUEVENOM MG130 OPERATING MANUAL 1. Maintenance of Welding Equipment The welding equipment should be routinely maintained according to the manufacturer's recommendations. All access and service doors and covers should be closed and properly fastened when the welding equipment is in operation. The welding equipment should not be modified in any way except for those changes and adjustments covered in the manufacturer's instructions. In particular, the spark gaps of arc striking and stabilising devices should be adjusted and maintained according to the manufacturer's recommendations. 2. Welding Cables The welding cables should be kept as short as possible and should be positioned close together, running at or close to the floor level. 3. Equipotential Bonding Bonding of all metallic components in the welding installation and adjacent to it should be considered. However Metallic components bonded to the work piece will increase the risk that the operator could receive a shock by touching the metallic components and the electrode at the same time. The operator should be insulated from all such bonded metallic components. 4. Earthing of the Workpiece Where the workpiece is not bonded to earth for electrical safety, nor connected to earth because of it's size and position, e.g. ship's hull or building steelwork, a connection bonding the workpiece to earth may reduce emissions in some, but not all instances. Care should be taken to prevent the earthing of the workpiece increasing the risk of injury to users, or damage to other electrical equipment. Where necessary, the connection of the workpiece to earth should be made by direct connection to the workpiece, but in some countries where direct connection is not permitted, the bonding should be achieved by suitable capacitance, selected according to national regulations. 5. Screening and Shielding Selective screening and shielding of other cables and equipment in the surrounding area may alleviate problems of interference. Screening the entire welding installation may be considered for special applications. OPERATING MANUAL BLUEVENOM MG130 SECTION 4: OPERATION Standard operating procedures apply when using these Welding machines, i.e. connect work lead directly to workpiece with the spring loaded clamp. The MIG wire is fed from the spool through the feed roller system and into the MIG Gun. The welding amperage range (plate thickness pre-set) values should be used as a guide only. Current delivered to the arc is dependent on the Wire Feed Speed and welding arc voltage, and as welding arc voltage varies between different classes of MIG wire, welding current at given settings could vary accordingly to the type of MIG wire in use. The operator should use the plate thickness pre-set welding current values as a guide, then finally adjust the current setting to suit the application, by fine tuning the WFS / Amps and Volts / Trim settings. 22 | CIGWELD.COM.AU CIGWELD.COM.AU | 23 BLUEVENOM MG130 OPERATING MANUAL 4.01 POWER SOURCE CONTROLS, INDICATORS AND FEATURES 1 4 5 3 2 1 Digital Display.

OPERATING MANUAL BLUEVENOM MG130 2 MIG GUN (DIRECT CONNECT) NEGATIVE POLARITY GASLESS Direct Connect MIG Gun, Gasless will only be connected to the Negative (-) Polarity output. CAUTION Loose welding terminal connections can cause overheating and result in the male plug being fused in the DINSE terminal. 3 POSITIVE OUTPUT WELDING TERMINAL The positive (+) welding terminal is used to connect the welding output of the power source to the work lead with clamp. Positive welding current flows from the power source via this twist & lock terminal, known as a DINSE Connector. It is essential, that the male plug is inserted and turned securely (by hand) to achieve a sound electrical connection. 4 FAN ON DEMAND The BlueVENOM MG130 is fitted with a fan on demand feature. Fan on demand automatically switches the cooling fan off when it is not required. This has two main advantages; (1) to minimize power consumption, and (2) to minimise the amount of contaminants such as dust that are drawn into the power source. Note that the fan will only operate when required for cooling purposes and will automatically switch off when not required. 5 POWER ON/OFF SWITCH This switch is used to turn the unit ON/OFF. When this switch is turned ON the LED Digital Display on the front panel will illuminate. NOTE If the Power Source is repeatedly switched On then Off rapidly or the supply to the power source is turned On and Off rapidly it may not turn On due to inbuilt protective devices acting. If this occurs leave the Power Source On/Off switch turned to the Off position for several minutes to allow for the protective devices to reset. 24 | CIGWELD.COM.AU Figure 4-2: Digital Display CIGWELD.COM.AU | 25 BLUEVENOM MG130 OPERATING MANUAL SECTTIIOONN55:: MIG (GGAMSALWES)SW(FECLADWIN)GWELDING 5.01 INSTALLING MINI SPOOL (100mm DIAMETER) As delivered from the factory, the unit is fitted with a Wire Spool Hub which accepts a Mini Spool of 100mm diameter MIG Gasless welding wire.

These devices should be adjusted to a minimum pressure that will provide satisfactory WIREFEED without slippage. If slipping occurs, and inspection of the wire contact tip reveals no wear, distortion or burn back jam, the conduit liner should be checked for kinks and clogging by metal flakes and swarf. If it is not the cause of slipping, the feed roll pressure can be increased by rotating the pressure screw clockwise. A simple check for the correct drive tension is to bend the end over of the wire (once out the end of the MIG Gun) and hold it about 50mm from a piece of wood (an insulated object) and let it run into the wood. The wire should coil up without stopping and slipping at the drive rollers, tighten the pressure/tension adjustment screw if it slips. To change the feed roll, release the Wire Drive Tension Screw and pull the Pressure Roller Arm (top roller) outward and out of the way. Remove the feed roll retaining cover by rotating it anti-clockwise 90 degrees and pulling outwards. The feed roll can now be changed. Once the feed roll is removed then replace the feed roll, ensuring that the wire size you are using is showing on the feed roll side facing outwards. Re-install by following these instructions in reverse. A dual groove knurled feed roll is fitted as standard. It can accommodate 0.8/0.9mm Gasless Flux Cored Wires. Markings are indicated on the side edge of the feed roll, for example 0.8, 0.9. Tighten Feed wire to check drive roll pressure. Tighten knob enough to prevent slipping. WOOD Figure 5-3: Feed Roll Pressure Adjustment WARNING Keep hands clear of the contact tip holder while feeding wire through to the gun. The wire can easily pierce you skin resulting in injury. Keep MIG Gun away from eyes and face. WARNING Before changing the feed roll ensure that the mains supply to the power source is switched off. CAUTION The use of excessive pressure may cause rapid wear of the feed rolls, shafts and bearing.

If the Control Knob is turned slowly it will adjust in small increments, if turned quickly, adjust in larger increments. Note: Adjusting Wire Feed Speed (M/min) will also change the Voltage Value Synergically. NOTE The Pre-set functionality provided on this power source is intended to act as a guide only. Some differences may be observed between pre-set values and actual welding values due to factors including the mode of welding, differences in consumables, individual welding techniques and the transfer mode of the welding arc (ie dip versus spray transfer). 5.06 QUICKSET (SYN) AND MANUAL MODES (MAN) Figure 5-10: Select Wire Feed Speed (M/min) Volts Trim In either QuickSet (SYN) or Manual Mode (MAN) a quick press of the Control Knob will select Volts Trim (V+/-). Volts Trim has a range of -2.5 to 2.5 Volts. If the value has been changed, to return to the factory parameters simply return the Volts Trim to display "SYN" to return to the QuickSet setting. For example, if the Pre-set Voltage is 19V and in Volts Trim (V+/-) mode the setting is changed to -2.0 then the Pre-set voltage will now be 17V. If the Volts Trim (V+/-) is changed to 2.0V then the Pre-set Voltage will be 21V. QUICKSET Mode (SYN) in 2 Steps With Pre-Sets installed the guess work is now taken out of the setup, to allow excellent welding results. All you need to set is the 1) MIG Wire Diameter and 2) Plate Thickness. Plate thickness setting allows you to set up in a flash. There is no guessing the welding parameters. Use the Synergic feature to set the machine to the correct plate thickness you are welding. You can check the plate thickness with a measuring device, such as a ruler or vernier caliper. If two different plate thickness are to be joined then, add the two together and divide by 2 and use the average plate thickness as your setting guide. Manual MIG Mode (MAN) In Manual MIG Mode, Voltage, Amps (A) and Wire Feed Speed (M/ min) can be selected and fine turned to the users individual liking.

Ensure that the Power Source ON/OFF switch located on the rear of the Power Source is in the OFF position. B. Fit the correct Feed Roll for the Gasless MIG wire being used. Refer to section 2.11 Options and Accessories for Feed Roll types and Part Numbers. C. Place the MIG wire spool onto the spool holder. Refer to section 5.01, 100mm diameter spool. D. Switch the Power Source ON/OFF switch located on the rear of the Power Source to the ON position and ensure the Front Panel Digital Display is illuminated. E. Select MIG SYN or MAN Mode. Refer to Section 5.05 for details. F. Feed wire through the wire drive mechanism. Refer to section 5.02. G. Connect the work lead to the positive welding terminal (+). Welding current flows from the Power Source via DINSE terminals. It is essential, that the male plug is inserted and turned securely to achieve a sound electrical connection. WARNING Moving Parts can cause injury! WARNING Before connecting the work clamp to the work piece make sure the mains power supply is switched off. CAUTION Loose welding terminal connections can cause overheating and result in the male plug being fused in the terminal. Remove any packaging material prior to use. Do not block the air vents at the front or rear of the Welding Power Source. NOTE Wire sizes for MIG GASLESS (Flux Cored Wire) are 0.8mm and 0.9mm diameter. MIG Gun Direct Connect (-) 230/240VAC 10A Mains Supply Positive Welding Terminal (+) Work Lead Figure 5-12: Setup for MIG Welding with Gasless MIG Wire OPERATING MANUAL BLUEVENOM MG130 SETTING OF THE POWER SOURCE Power source setting requires some practice by the operator, (however with the QuickSet feature of the BlueVENOM MG130, setting up the correct parameters is a very simple procedure - refer to Section 5.07 and 5.08), as the welding plant has two control settings that have to balance. These are the Wire Feed Speed control and the welding Voltage Control. The welding current is determined by the Wire Feed Speed control, the current will increase with increased Wire Feed Speed, resulting in a shorter arc. Less Wire Feed Speed will reduce the current and lengthen the arc. Increasing the welding voltage alters the current level slightly, but lengthens the arc. By decreasing the voltage, a shorter arc is obtained with a slight change in current level When changing to a different electrode wire diameter, different control settings are required. A thinner electrode wire needs more Wire Feed Speed to achieve the same current level. A satisfactory weld cannot be obtained if the Wire Feed Speed and Voltage settings are not adjusted to suit the electrode wire diameter and the thickness of the work piece. If the Wire Feed Speed is too high for the welding voltage, "stubbing" will occur as the wire dips into the molten pool and does not melt. Welding in these conditions normally produces a poor weld due to lack of fusion. If, however, the welding voltage is too high, large drops will form on the end of the wire, causing spatter. The correct setting of voltage and Wire Feed Speed can be seen in the shape of the weld deposit and heard by a smooth regular arc sound. Refer to the Weld Guide located on the inside of the wirefeed compartment door for setup information. ELECTRODE WIRE SIZE SELECTION The choice of Electrode wire size and shielding gas used depends on thew following: · Thickness of the metal to be welded · Type of joint · Capacity of the wire feed unit and Power Source · The amount of penetration required · The deposition rate required · The bead profile desired · The position of welding · Cost of the wire HANDY HINT To make gasless MIG welding easy, CIGWELD recommend using the Plate Thickness QuickSet settings already preprogrammed into the welding machine. This will help you aviod messy looking welds and help provide trouble free, pleasurable welding results. 32 | CIGWELD.COM.AU CIGWELD.COM.AU | 33 BLUEVENOM MG130 OPERATING MANUAL 5.08 CIGWELD MIG WIRE SELECTION CHART BLUEVENOM MG130 MIG WELDING WIRE SELECTION CHART DESCRIPTION CLASS.

B Replace feed roll if worn. 2 Wire rubbed against the mis-aligned Mis-alignment of inlet/outlet guides. guides and reduced wire feedability. 3 Liner blocked with swarf A Increased amounts of swarf are produced by the wire passing through the feed roll when excessive pressure is applied to the pressure roller adjuster. B Swarf can also be produced by the wire passing through an incorrect feed roll groove shape or size. C Swarf is fed into the conduit liner where it accumulates thus reducing wire feedability. 4 Incorrect or worn contact tip. A The contact tip transfers the weld current to the electrode wire. If the hole in the contact tip is too large then arcing may occur inside the contact tip resulting in the wire jamming in the contact tip. 5 Poor work lead contact to work piece. If the work lead has a poor electrical contact to the work piece then the connection point will heat up and result in a reduction of power at the arc 6 Bent liner. This will cause friction between the wire and the liner thus reducing wire feedability. 34 | CIGWELD.COM.AU CIGWELD.COM.AU | 35 BLUEVENOM MG130 OPERATING MANUAL THE IMPORTANCE OF A CORRECT STICKOUT Stickout refers to the length of wire that extends beyond the contact tip of the welding gun during welding. The Stickout is a critical parameter in gasless welding and plays a significant role in determining the quality and overall result of the weld. A correct Stickout for welding with gasless wire should be 10-15mm which is measured from the end of the Contact Tip to the Weld Pool. 10-15mm Nozzle Angle. This refers to the position of the welding gun in relation to the joint. The transverse angle is usually one half the included angle between plates forming the joint. The longitudinal angle is the angle between the centre line of the welding gun and a line perpendicular to the axis of the weld. The longitudinal angle is generally called the Nozzle Angle and dragging (pulling). Whether the operator is left handed or right handed has to be considered to realize the effects of each angle in relation to the direction of travel.
