Sealey SR20 - Manual (Page 3)


WARNING: Unplug from the mains power supply before performing maintenance or service.
7.1. Check all electrical components as stated in Section 1.
7.2. Using a cloth or a brush, regularly clean the transformer cooling slots.
7.3. Replace or repair damaged parts. Use recommended parts only, unauthorised parts may be dangerous and will invalidate the warranty.
7.4. Keep the handgrips of the welder dry, clean and grease free.
7.5. Always keep the surfaces of the electrodes and of the electrode holding barrels free from any oil, grease, dust, paint, etc., in order to
allow the proper flow of current.
7.6. After you have finished using the gun, allow it to cool and then return it, and the accessories, to the case for safe storage.
7. MAINTENANCE
8. CONSUMABLES
6.1.3. Ensure you check the following before you start:
a). Electrodes and the extension electrode must be clean and without defect. Carefully remove any defect with a fine file or abrasive
paper.
b). If the electrode is too worn and cannot be repaired, replace with a new one.
c). The panel to be welded must be clean and free from paint, grease and/or rust.
6.1.4. Connect the welder to the power supply. Select the item for welding (i.e. nail or washer) and insert into the appropriate electrode.
Note that the washer electrode is magnetic to hold the washer in place.
6.1.5. With moderate force, press the gun onto the damaged panel surface. The electrode will retract and the outer rim of the carrier (or
extension electrode if fitted) will make contact with the workpiece thereby completing the electrical circuit. Keep the gun head at right
angles to the panel surface to ensure good contact (fig.3).
6.1.6. Squeeze the trigger for no more than half a second, so as not to overheat the fitting to be welded, since this could ‘cook’ it and make
it less resistant against being ripped out.
DO NOT keep the gun in place for too long as it may overheat or burn a hole in the panel.
6.1.7. DO NOT release the pressure on the welding surface until you have released the trigger or the circuit may be prematurely broken.
6.1.8. When the task is complete, disconnect the tool from the power supply and store it in a safe area.
Note: DO NOT use the welding gun continuously for long periods at a time, as the gun may overheat.
6.2. Slide Hammer.
6.2.1. Grip the nail in the slide hammer spindle and then operate the striking hammer until the dent is pulled out. To pull a washer, grip the
washer hook (fig.1.7) in the spindle and hook the washer (fig.4).
6.3. Sheet Heating.
6.3.1. Use the heating electrode (fig.1.8) and extension (fig.1.9), for localised sheet heating in order to shrink and remove small dents
and pimples. Proceed as 6.1. above, omitting 6.1.5. Carefully heat the localised area accordingly.
IMPORTANT! If the electrode, electrode holder, carrier contact face (fig.2.A) and panel are not clean, dry and free from paint,
grease, rust etc. - the weld will be poor and the welder may overheat, causing irreparable damage to the casings.
