1. Use dry electrodes only. Damp electrodes should be re-dried at 300~350℃ for 60 minutes before use.
2. Backstep method should be applied to prevent blowholes and pits at arc starting and arc length should be kept as short as possible during welding.
3. All water, rust and oil in groove should be completely removed to prevent cracks and blowholes.
