Notes on Usage
Welding Positions:
① Dry the electrodes at 350~400℃(622~752℉) for 60 minutes before use.
② Keep the arc as short as possible, and avoid large width of weaving.
③ Adopt back step method or strike the arc on a small steel plate prepared for this particular
purpose to prevent blow hole at the arc starting.
