PROCEDURE

WARNING

 

1.Remove the input power to the TIG 275 machine.

2.Using the 3/8” nut driver, remove the right side case cover.

3.Locate the Spark Gap Assembly at the lower right side of the machine. See Figure F.1.

4.Carefully remove the two leads and washers from the Spark Gap Assembly.

5.Insulate the leads from each other and from the case.

When power is applied to the machine there is a very high voltage present at these leads.

6.When voltage testing and scope measure- ments are complete, attach the two leads and washers to the Spark Gap Assembly. NOTE: Make sure insulation is still in place.

7.Reassemble the right side case cover.
