Welding Technique<br />

Striking the Arc: >Tap or Scratch technique<br />

Strike E7018 ahead <strong>of</strong> the intended start location then quickly<br />

move to the start position and <strong>weld</strong> over where the <strong>arc</strong> was<br />

struck.<br />

Breaking the Arc: When you run out <strong>of</strong> rod, push the stub down<br />

tight on the puddle, then quickly pull it aside. This leaves a<br />

clean crater to start the next rod.<br />

When starting from a crater, strike the <strong>arc</strong> at the front end <strong>of</strong> the<br />

crater, then quickly move to the back and proceed forward to<br />

continue the <strong>weld</strong>.
