Welding Instruction
(1) Clean up the contaminations on the steel.
(2) Dry the electrodes at 350~400°C for 60 minutes before welding.
(3) Keep arc as short as possible. Take the back step method to prevent porosity at arc start and re-start. (Please refer to Appendix A).
(4) High heat input will lower the impact value. Please carefully select the welding current.
(5) The preheat temperature for thick plate is 90~110°C.
