Introduction
The EasyTig series of Welders is a revolutionary new approach to Welding
technology. Easyweld introduced a more efficient way to manufacture top
quality machines while keeping the cost of operation and repairs lower. This was
accomplished using several new approaches to the mainstream technology. One
of these methods is our proprietary plug & play main circuit boards which allows
ease of repair, reducing the downtime to only hours rather than days, while also
reducing repair costs averaging less than $75! The TIG AC/DC Series uses
special safety redundant circuitry with built in auto-protection and self adjusting
circuitry to keep your machine running in a safe threshold. This helps protect
your machine from over-voltage, power spikes, burn-outs and shorting.

A BRIEF INTRODUCTION TO THE PRODUCTS
TIG AC/DC series is our newly-developed products, whose main character is that
it can not only weld non-rusty steel, alloy steel and carbon steel and other
nonferrous metals with DC function, but also it can weld aluminum and alloy
aluminum with AC function. For instance, for welding skateboard and bicycle
made of aluminum. The total power exchange rate of the machines is over 85%,
and they are energy-saving. The main types are 200 AC/DC, 300 AC/DC and
315 AC/DC.

The use and development of inverter technology in welding benefits from the
invention of high power electronic spare parts, esp. IGBT, the employ of which
greatly reduces the volume and weight of main parts, e.g. transformer and
anti-electricity, thus making our machines able to work under HF 20KHZ. We
also employ WM and C U-control to make the welding current stable, accurate
and easy to adjust; and the machines convenient to operate, and avoid the
disturbance of electric magnetism.
AC/DC welders are made with inverter technology, and they are lighter, smarter
and more efficient as compared with traditional ones; while compared with
imported ones, they are cheaper, and have stronger electric net. The most
characteristic one is the use of twice inverter technology and output of pure
square wave, which makes the arc straighter, heat more concentrating,
anti-clearance stronger and wider clearance, etc to make sure the high quality
of the machines.
AC/DC series are equipped with foot switch, thus liberating the workers’ hands,
and they can adjust the current with their foot freely. As a result, at the very
beginning or wire-adding, we can speed up the current; while at the end slow
down the current in order to form a good welding line. In a word, the use of foot
switch helps raise the welding efficiency and reduces the welding difficulty as
well as make sure of the welding quality. If you need pulse welding, we have
foot-control switch with the function of pulse welding.
Inverter welders are also equipped with TIG torch, and cable of suitable length,
hose and water-cooling connector. Besides, there are also other spare parts for
torch, such as ceramic nozzle, collet body, short cap and long cap. The size and
quantity of them can see in the enclosed packing list. If you need more spare
parts, you can order separately
Cautions!
This equipment is used mainly in technology. Under room temperature, this
equipment may have wireless emission, please pay attention to it when
working.

A. Exchange switch:
1. ARC/TIG exchange switch:
lace the switch on “ARC”; it’s for MMA welding;
lace the switch on “TIG”, it’s for AC or DC Tig welding.
2. AC/DC Exchange switch:
lace the switch on “AC”; it’s in AC mode for welding aluminum;
lace the switch on “DC”; it’s in DC mode for welding non-rusty steel.
3. 2T/4T switch (Optional):
lace the switch on “2T”, its short welding. that’s, when you press the
button, there is current output, and when press it again, it stops; as for
“4T”, when you first press it, there is current out, and press it again,
there is still current out; press the third time, the current output stops.
So it’s called long welding.
4. DC/PULSE (Optional):
When the switch is at DC TIG, press it at ULSE, and there is DC pulse
current out.
B. Adjustment switch:
1. Pre-flow time switch:
To guarantee the welding efficiency, gas is before current, this switch is
to adjust the time between gas and current.
2. Current time switch:
It’s for current adjustment, and changes the volume of the current.
3. Clear width switch:
In AC TIG welding, the current exchanges between positive and
negative directions, when Current is from tungsten to work piece, its
positive direction and tungsten heats little, convenient for welding;
while if current is from work piece to tungsten, it’s negative and good
for removing the oxidization coating on the surface of the work piece,
but the tungsten may be easily damaged because of overheat. This
switch is for adjusting the current time between positive and negative.
When it’s at the middle ,the proportion is 50% ;at the maximum is 80%;
at the minimum ,20%.If in clockwise direction, the positive current time
turns longer and negative one shorter; and vice versa.
Re: Big current, low clear width; e.g.>200A, the clear width<30%.
Little current, high clear width; e.g. <100A, the clear width>50%.
4. Slope-down switch:
After finishing welding, at the crater time, the current is required to
reduce gradually until it stops, and this switch is to adjust the reducing
time.
Re: If use “foot switch”, this switch is adjusted to “0” in
counterclockwise direction.
5. Post-flow time switch:
The work piece may be oxidized because of heat, so it needs to cool
with the welding gas for some time as long as b 0 seconds, this switch
is for adjusting the post-flow time.

6. Arc force adjustment:
If you adjust this switch at MMA, then it can change the welding
characteristic of the little current.
7. Base current:
At DC TIG pulse, this button can adjust the volume of the valley
current.
8. Pulse frequency switch:
At DC TIG, and place the DC/ ULSE at ULSE, this switch can adjust the
pulse frequency (0.5-300HZ).
9. Air-occupying proportion:
Change the air-occupying proportion at DCTIG pulse.
C. Pilot light function:
Pilot light for over-heat protection:
If the machine works continuously for long time under big current, its
inner parts may get burned as a result of over-heat. To avoid this, we
set the pilot light, when it’s on, please stop working, but do not turn off
the machine, and it can recover after 2 or 3 mm.
INSTALLATION
TIG welders are equipped with power voltage complement and when the power
voltage ranges between ±15%, it can still work.
When using long output cable, to reduce voltage-decreasing, we suggest you
choose cables with wider section; but if the cable is too long, it may cause
abnormal in the working system, so we recommend you use the given length.
1. Make sure the ventilating mouth is not blocked or covered lest the
cooling system invalid.
2. Connect well the C02 source. The gas supply includes gas bottle, gas
hose and gas regulator, the connection of the hose should be connected
with hose clamp or other things lest gas-leaking or air-in.
3. Connect the case to earth with cables whose section is no less than
6mm2, from the back of the welding machine to earth screw to
earth-connecting equipment.
4. lug the air-plug of the back circuit cable to on the air-socket “+” and
whirl the switch in clockwise direction tightly; the other terminal of the
earth clamp is tied to the work piece.
5. Tie the power plug to the concerned socket, and make sure that the
power supply is AC 380V with a tolerance error of the given range.
6. Set up the water-cooling torch according to the given map, tie the
copper screw at one end of the torch to the one-knob on the panel
9
board, and tighten it in clockwise direction.
7. Connect the two-cored air plug of the foot switch respectively to the
two-cored and three-cored sockets on the panel board.
After finishing all the work above, you can start welding.
OPERATION
1. Turn on the power switch, the fan begins to work.
2. Turn on the gas switch; adjust the gas to rated standard. (See parameter)
3. According to the oxidization degree of the work piece, adjust the switch for
clean width to change the positive and negative current rate.
4. Turn on the switch on the welding torch, and the electromagnetic valve works;
you will hear the sound of HF electricity-releasing. Meanwhile, there is gas
coming out of the torch mouth. Attention: If it’s the first time to weld, please
hold the switch for seconds before welding; don’t begin welding until all the
air in the gas road is made out. After you finish welding, there will be still
being gas out for seconds. This is designed for protecting the welding point,
so please stay in the welding place for seconds before removing the torch.
5. According to practical use, choose the foot switch. If the foot switch is in use,
please turn the current to the minimum, and the current volume is under the
control of the foot switch.
6. According to practical use, adjust the time of “pre-flow”, “post-flow” and
“slope-down”.
7. Keep the distance between the tungsten and work piece between 2mm to
4mm, push the torch switch, then HF electricity-releasing will come out
between the welding tungsten and work piece; after the arc-leading, the
splash may disappear at once, then you can start work.
