strip and close the cover. See Figure 12. 6. Press and hold Control Unit operator button until the ready

CAUTION: Allow 15 seconds for mold cooling after the
reaction. This will permit the molten metal to solidify. Then
carefully disengage the welder device and pull the mold straight
back from the rail. Failure to observe this may result in mold
damage and its premature scrapping. Molds can generally be
re-used up to 50 times.
7. Carefully open the mold and remove the expended steel cup
— no special disposal required.
8. Break up the slag in the crucible using the blade of the mold
cleaning tool. Dump the slag from the crucible and remove
slag from the taphole using the curved end of the mold
cleaner. Dump slag in the ballast, not onto the ties.
9. Check the molds for breakage or residual slag before
proceeding with the next weld.
Note: If you have any questions or require further instructions,
or would like training, contact ERICO at 1-800-447-7245.
CAUTION: Install only the specifi ed CADWELD PLUS
welding material cup in the mold crucible. Use only the
welding material size that is specifi ed on the mold. ERICO
brand of welding material (F80) is formulated specifi cally for
use with rail steels.
5. Place welder against rail. Hold fi rmly if TB5 style or clamp if
T21 style. Clamp is adjustable for rail sizes. Check that mold
face
fi ts against rail and bond terminal is held against rail.
NOTE: Clamp on T21 style can be swung out of way to
make hand held welder. See Figure 13.
