PROMTS 200i MIG Welding Tips and Tricks MIG Welding Tips 1. Direct your wire at the leading edge of your weld pool for the most control of your weld bead. 2. For the most bead control when doing more difficult welds such as; Vertical, horizontal, and overhead welds, use the smallest wire diameter possible, and keep you weld pool small. 3 Your contact tube, gun liner, and drive rolls should coincide with your wire. 4. Keep your gun liner, drive rolls, and gun nozzles clean.
PROMTS 200i Welding Wire Thin Metal= Thin Diameter. Thick Metal= Larger wire, with a larger machine. Us the wire that matches your metal. Don’t use aluminum with stainless, or vice versa RECOMMENDED WIRE SIZES Material Thickness MIG Solid Wire .024” .030” .035” Gasless Flux-Core Wire .045” .030” .035” .045” 24 Gauge (.025) 22 Gauge (.031) 20 Gauge (.037) 18 Gauge (.050) 16 Gauge (.063) 14 Gauge (.078) 1/8” (.125) 3/16” (.188) 1/4” (.25) 5/16” (.313) 3/8” (.375) 1/2” (.
PROMTS 200i WELDING WIRES Shielding gas- C02 or 75%Argon/25% Solid Carbon-Steel ER70S-6 CO2 is recommended and will give you deeper penetration 75%Argon/25% will give you less splatter and a nicer lookingbead Should be used indoors, where wind cannot harm you weld. Allows you to weld materials thinner than what you would weld with flux cored wires Great for auto body work .
PROMTS 200i Shielding Gas Co2 should be used with thick materials, but is too hot for thinner materials. Thin steel should be used with 75% Argon/25% Co2. Aluminum should be used with Argon.

PROMTS 200i Fillet Welds The leg of your weld should be equal to the thickness of the materials you welded. Aluminum MIG Welding Tips • It is highly recommended to use a spool gun when welding with aluminum. However, if you don’t have access to one, you can try using an extremely short gun. • Keep your gun straight.
PROMTS 200i • Fill the crater at the end of the weld to avoid a crack. One way to do this is to dwell in the weld pool for a second at the end of the weld. STICK Welding Tips and Tricks (Also known as MMA-Manual Metal Arc or Shielded Metal Arc Welding-SMAW) Connect the Stick torch to the - terminal and Torch Control receptacles. Connect the ground clamp to the + terminal and clamp the metal to be welded. Reverse the torch and ground connections for DCEP (Direct Current Electrode Positive).
PROMTS 200i flux and bare metal meet. A welding rod must have flux to shield the weld from the atmosphere or the weld will fail. 4. Use the Current control to change arc qualities. Adjust the amperage according to the recommendations of the electrode (welding rod) manufacturer for the type and size of the electrode used. Experimentation will be required to find the optimal setting desired. It is an excellent tool for out of position welding. 5. Electrode selection.

PROMTS 200i washing of the weld bead into the sides or “toes” of the weld is important. Keep the welding electrode or the TIG tungsten and welding arc within the weld joint to prevent overlap. Pausing on the sides of the welds to wait for the sides to fill reduces the chance of undercutting, even if the current is a little too high.

PROMTS 200i Helpful Hints Use a drag technique for most applications. Take precautions with flying materials when chipping slag. Keep electrodes clean and dry - follow manufacturer instructions. Common steel electrodes (refer to chart above). Penetration: DCEN- Less penetration; AC - Medium (can be more spatter also); DCEP Most penetration Catalog and Capabilities LONGEVITY has what you need for stick welding, from welders to welding supplies and protective clothing.
