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 90~120°C.
