- Set time for appropriate weld base diameter
- Set amperage for appropriate weld base diameter
- Positive ground
- Align accessories so they are centered and adjust legs so 3/16” to 1/4” of stud protrudes beyond ferrule
- Have a good clean ground
- Work surface relatively clean so impurities do not affect weld
- Keep studs and ferrules clean and dry
- Test welds at beginning of each shift or change in stud. Bend two studs 30° after cooled.
- Check burn off (1/8” – 3/16”) color (silver blue & shiny) & 360° fillet
- Visually inspect all welds
