The table (Table 10) lists the recommended switch
and control settings for the TIG Module/Ranger 9
combination.

Operate the Ranger 9 in accordance with the Ranger
9 Manual.

Note that for AC TIG welding, the maximum TIG
welding output currents on each range setting will be
approximately 50% higher that those marked on the
nameplate.  This is due to the special nature of the
AC TIG welding arc.  Do not AC TIG weld on the 200
or 250 amp range settings.  The output current may
exceed the rating of the Ranger 9.

Because your Ranger 9 has remote control capability,
refer to Figure 9, which covers the proper use of the

TIG Module Current Control, Arc Start Switch, and
Amptrols.
Once the TIG Module and Ranger 9 are properly set
up, TIG welding is very easy.  Position the torch in
place, lower your helmet, and press the Arc Start
Switch or Amptrol.  The Ranger 9’s output contactor
will close, the engine will go to high idle, gas will flow,
and after a one-half second preflow time, the high
frequency will come on.  The arc should strike and
welding should begin.  At the end of the weld, simply
release the Arc Start Switch or Amptrol, and the
contactor will open, shutting off the arc.  The Afterflow
time will begin, cooling the torch, protecting the weld
and the tungsten.

If another weld is started during the Afterflow time,
there will be no preflow time delay.  The contactor will
close and the high frequency will come on
immediately when the Arc Start Switch or Amptrol is
pressed.
