Maelezo ya Kigezo:

• Hali: Selects between Automatic (A) and Pedal (M) welding modes.
• Gia: Adjusts the welding power level from 1 to 100. Higher numbers indicate more power.
• Anzisha: (Only for Automatic Mode) Sets the delay time (0.5-5 seconds) before a weld is triggered after the pens contact the material.
• Cont Welds: Sets the number of continuous welding pulses (1 or 2) for a single trigger.

6.3 Mchakato wa Kulehemu

The AWithZ UK1 is suitable for welding nickel-plated steel (0.1-0.35mm), pure nickel (0.1mm), and steel (0.1-0.3mm) for battery pack assembly and repair. It is commonly used for 18650 battery welding.

1. Tayarisha nyenzo: Ensure the nickel strip and battery terminals are clean and free of oxidation. Use the included sandpaper if necessary.
2. Weka Ukanda: Place the nickel strip firmly onto the battery terminal where the weld is desired.
3. Position Welding Pens: Hold the welding pens perpendicular to the nickel strip, with the tips making firm contact with the strip, directly above the battery terminal. Ensure the tips are close to each other but not touching.
4. Anzisha Kulehemu:
   • Hali ya Kiotomatiki: The weld will trigger automatically after the set delay once both pen tips make contact.
