(5)TIG torch nozzles are typically made from alumina ceramic. Special applications may require lava nozzles, which are less prone to breakage, but cannot withstand high temperatures and high duty cycles.

WIRE WELDING

Connect a wire feeder to the Ranger 275 and set welder controls according to the instructions on the appropriate wire feeder connection diagram.

The Ranger 275 in the ”WIRE FEED” position, permits it to be used with a broad range of flux cored wire (Innershield and Outershield) electrodes and solid wires for MIG welding (gas metal arc welding). Welding can be finely tuned using the “ARC CON- TROL”.

Some recommended Innershield electrodes are: NR- 311, NS-3M, NR-207, NR-203 Ni 1%, NR-204-H.

Recommended Outershield electrodes are: 0S-70, 0S-71M.

Some recommended solid wires for MIG welding are:

.035 (0.9 mm) and .045 (1.1 mm) L-50, L-56, and Blue Max MIG 308 LS.

For any electrodes, including the above recommenda- tions, the procedures should be kept within the rating of the machine. For additional electrode information, see Lincoln publications N-675, GS-100 and GS-210.
