MIG Welder Safety 4 of 7 - Turning on the shielding gas

[@brianevans4322]

Finally! Thank You. The instructions that came with my welder or gauges doesn’t explain anything about the way that you did. So simple , no excuse these companies can’t put the simple information about how much gas you have and how easily to allow people to know how to understand how to set up and get started the right way. Again Thank You Sir…

J bbb nm ĺ l lk hmm

[@2keytwokey]

Really, this is the best explanatory video on how the gas works. Thank you!!

[@johnmartin9907]

best explanation on youtube no bullshit right to the important stuff thank you.

[@r3d1911]

great thank you i had no idea what that spinning thingy was on the front of the gauge or what/how to do with it. now i do😁😉 direct to the point EXACTLY what i needed!

[@x01e]

You saved me today, and my dumb hobart 210 MVP manual doesn't explain this.

[@brianevans4322]

Exactly Sir, it’s a WOW! Why doesn’t any of these companies provide anything to help their customers understand their products.

[@philchigges2955]

Appreciate this as I never knew exactly.learning everyday.thanks!!!

[@kingstyngauthier3584]

Best video explanation on youtube

Best episode

[@jonathanoverlin795]

clear, concise- thank you!

[@rutabega2039]

Thanks, great video. I should have watched this before blowing a hole in my gas line.

[@523FILMS]

I should of watched it before blowing up my house

[@demetriusmanio2513]

I thought I was the only one

[@gittyupalice96]

Good stuff, but should of mentioned that this is for 75% argon 25% Co2, with 100% Co2 gas you need extra seals for your regulator, and different pressure setting. Also about 15CFH is all you need indoor, I run at 18CFH and other welders I know prefer running 30CFH indoor and 40CFH outdoor.

[@Aaron_Barrett]

Do yoy have quick socket on gas regulator and line hose?

[@larrysheran]

Great video just some safety advice, don't turn the tank using the valve. Instead, grab it by the tank. The valve can unscrew from the tank and cause major damage.

[@Aaron_Barrett]

How tight I must close the valve? I 'm brand new in CO2 welding, thank you!

[@catylistspaazmo]

Treat it like a garden hose tap and then a bit more? Hahaha IDK how to answer any better than that!

[@MegaAnibar]

what gases used this welding process....

[@dangda-ww7de]

it would be nice to know what kind of gas u got in there.

[@ricksandhu4927]

dang0088 da it is Mig mix c25. Its 75%CO2 and 25% Argon

[@jamesglavich1426]

@@ricksandhu4927 Probably 75% ARGON and 25% CO2

[@StrangerThing369]

Thank you!

[@Patrick-vu1pn]

What gas are you welding with that is flammable?

[@mr.sandhuteched769]

patrick. bryk not flammable. Shielding gas is inert gas which means it doesn't react with anything. Explosion hazards are a result of damaged gauges that could blow out when gas hits them at high pressure so stand to the side just in case.

[@lookin4work]

Yea uh not flammable

[@lookin4work]

patrick. bryk right !

[@mr.sandhuteched769]

Baby Fishmouth I'm just stating that in the case of flammable gasses be careful with regulators. I know it sounded like I was referring specifically to MIG gas but I wasn't. Just a general comment.

[@lookin4work]

Mr. Sandhu Tech Ed ok gotcha

[@DontKnowDontCareee]

I'm new to the welding scene and I went over to the tank to see if I had any gas in the tank and it showed I had about 30-35 on the right gauge. Then I turned the free spinning knob, in the middle of the two gauges, to the right and the pressure went up on the left one but my problem is how do I get the gauges to both come back down to zero? I don't feel like blowing my house up or something. Thanks in advance. By the way, my setup looks exactly like yours.

[@DontKnowDontCareee]

Nevermind. I just saw your other video on how to purge the lines lol. Thanks anyway but does the machine have to be turned on or can it be shut off?

[@Codeman785]

I thought the best working pressure was 15-20?

[@jkgkjgkijk]

For .030

[@jamesglavich1426]

CFM, not pressure

[@leoahearn7382]

Let’s talk about safety and chaining the cylinder to something rather than it free standing like it is in this “safety” video.

[@ricksandhu4927]

Hi Leo. Yes, safely chaining a tank is absolutely necessary. The tank is actually chained to the cart with an upper and lower chain. It’s just not visible in the video.

[@timetraveling118]

Where is your safety chains Mr safety?

[@catylistspaazmo]

Attached to the cart, and not visible in the video... Mr. Condescending

[@crystaljoleen8183]

Omg....dude..take a welding class.. I would never work with a guy like you. Quarter 1/4 turn to 1 1/2 turn is general shop safety. Dont say nobody warned you.

[@mr.sandhuteched769]

crystal joleen this is a double seated valve in this tank. It can leak if not fully open or not fully closed. Did you know that? And since it's not a flammable gas then there's no risk of an explosion if it leaks. Did you know that? If you had taken MY class you would know that. And you wouldn't be able to work with me unless you were a trained Tech Ed Teacher. Your welcome for the free video that I made just to help people.

[@crystaljoleen8183]

Mr. Sandhu Tech Ed Sweet. Thank you

[@jkgkjgkijk]

@@mr.sandhuteched769 I am a certified welder. You are a bullshit artist--did you know that?

[@burtreynolds3143]

@@mr.sandhuteched769 in your video you called it a FLAMABLE gas. You did everything right. (except for aiming the gauges right at your face) but your explanations were all wrong. It's clear that you got some instruction but you lack understanding of how the regulator works, how to set your pressure and gas purpose. None the less, still a helpful video in as much as I don't think anyone would get hurt following your procedure.

[@catylistspaazmo]

@@burtreynolds3143 Before you call out a person you should make sure you have your facts straight. I did not say it was flammable gas. I said that its important to be careful with the regulator especially WHEN you have flammable gas, which is true. If you have trouble understanding my video please feel free to find a video that speaks in simpler terms. Secondly, When you say I lack understanding of how a regulator works you are making a very generalized statement with no evidence or backing. So its just an opinion. Try to be more specific. What did I say to indicate that I don't know how a regulator works? This video has over 100k views and has helped a ton of people so try to pay attention better before spouting off publicly. Thirdly, I am standing to the side of the gauges in the video. I make an obvious adjustment to turn the tank away from my face. Again, develop an attention span and try to pay attention .All you've done is shown how ungrateful you are for this free video that cost me my time and effort and cost you nothing.
