AB Series Torches 1 Designated Use

1DesignatedUse

The AB series manual welding torches are used for safety welding of carbon

steel and alloy steel materials. They consist of the torch neck with equipment

parts and wearing parts, handle and cable assembly with Panasonic connector

(or OTC/Euro connector). They correspond to the directive EN 60 974-7 and

are not considered to be devices having their own functions. Arc welding can

only be carried out in connection with a welding power supply.

AB Series Torches 3 Putting into operation

3.2 Mounting the wire guide liner

1Lay the torch straight out and unscrew the gas nozzle as well as the contact

tip from the torch neck.

2Slide the wire guide liner into the torch up to the Panasonic connector; for

the torches with Euro or OTC connector, unscrew the position holder nut on

the connector, insert the wire guide liner in and then screw the position

holder nut back on again.

3Fold the torch side cable to a degree of 180°, cut off the wire guide liner

at the end of the tip holder.

4Pull out the wire guide liner.

5Sharpen the wire guide liner to an angle of approx. 40° and deburr the

cutting edge.

6Insert the wire guide liner into the torch again; for torches with Euro or OTC

connectors, please screw the position holder nut on the connector and tight

with a spanner.

7Screw the contact tip and gas nozzle back on again.

3.3 Connecting the torch to machine

1Insert the Panasonic connector into the wire feed unit, and tight the lock bolt

on the wire feed unit; for Euro or OTC connectors, screw the union nut tight.

2Properly mount the connections for shielding gas.

3.4 Setting the shielding gas quantity

3.5 Feed in wire

1Insert the wire in the wire feed unit as specified by the manufacturer.

2Press the "Wire Jog" push-button at the wire feed unit until the wire comes

out of the contact tip.

NOTE

• The type and quantity of the shielding gas quantity depends on the

welding task and the gas nozzle geometry.

• Make all shielding gas connections gas-tight.

• To prevent the shielding gas supply from becoming clogged by

impurities, the cylinder valve must be opened briefly, before connecting

the cylinder. This will blow out any impurities that may be present.

6 Maintenance and cleaning AB Series Torches

NOTE

• When change contact-tip holder or torch neck, or connect Panasonic to

machine side, the contact surface between parts must be clean and free

from hard particles, otherwise the surface will be scraped and good

contact won’t be guaranteed.

• When assemble trigger contact spring onto torch handle, be care not to

bend the spring and make sure the two springs are assembled with the

contact points face to face. The groove on the spring must be set on the

stage shown as the following photo.

1The contact springs must be assembled with the groove set on the stage of the torch handle
