Application class

The symbol indicates that the power source is designed for use in areas with increased

electrical hazard.

4 INS ALLA ION

The installation must be executed by a professional.

WARNING!

This product is intended for industrial use. In a domestic environment this product may cause radio

interference. It is the user’s responsibility to take adequate precautions.

WARNING!

When welding in an environment with increased electrical danger, only power sources intended

for this environment may be used. These power sources are marked with the symbol .

a. Connect the wire feeder with the welding rectifier. Temporary keep the

current cable disconnected.

b. Connect the wire feeder to gas regulator by means of gas hose.

Attention: Use gas heater only for pure CO2.

c. Connect a welding torch. If it is liquid--cooled, connect its hoses to

appropriate connectors, turning aside an arm of the pump switch (ELP).

Hoses and appropriate connectors are marked in red and blue.

d. Install the bobbin with electrode wire.

e. Input the wire between the rolls and further to the torch connector, at least

for 20cm inside. Type of the rolls should match the side and the type of used

electrode wire. Take in account, that for convenience, marking on the side of

the rolls corresponds the size of the groove on the opposite side.

f. Close the rolls and adjust an optimal radial pressure by means of knobs.

Setting recommendation is placed on the inner side of the cover.

g. Set braking force of the wire bobbin by means the bolt placed inside the

bobbin holder.

Attention! Keep attention during replacement of the bobbin. Don’t use gloves

while installing the bobbin and inputting the wire into the torch.

h. Set mode selector (2) in position (inching). Press the torch switch and let

the wire go through the torch up to its appearance out of the torch.

i. Set mode selector (2) in position (gas purge). Press the torch switch and

adjust the gas flow.

j. Connect current cables. Set voltage in the welding rectifier. Switch the

rectifier on. The machine is ready for welding.

The wire feeder is factory -- equipped with insulating feet that allow to put the feeder

on top of power source or directly on the ground.

Feeder can optionally be equipped with accessory wheel set (see page 1 ).

5 OPERA ION

General safety regulations for the handling of the equipment can be found on

page 4. Read through before you start using the equipment

WARNING!

Assure that the side panels are closed during operation.

WARNING!

Rotating parts can cause injury, take great care.

To prevent the reel sliding off the hub: Lock the reel in place by turning

the red knob as shown on the warning label attached next to the hub.

WARNING!

When moving the equipment use intended handle. NOTE Never pull on the gun.

5.2 Function explanation

5.2.1 2--stroke mode

Set the 2--stroke mode by means of the knob (3). Set required wire speed by means

of the knob (2). The creep speed option can be set by means of the knob (6). If

creep speed is chosen the wire speed before the actual start of welding is reduced

by two. The creep speed is not recommended for speed setting close to the minimal.

The burn--back time should set by means of the knob (4). This setting should be

chosen experimentally, starting from the lowest values.

Pressing the torch switch opens the gas valve and then switching the power source

on and feeding the wire. Releasing the torch switch stops the wire feeding. After

delay proportional to burn--back time setting the power is switched off. Eventually

the gas is cut off too.

5.2.2 4--stroke mode

Set the 4--stroke mode by means of the knob (3). Other settings as for 2--stroke

mode.

This mode could be described as follows:

1. switch pressed -- gas starts to flow,

2. switch released -- power source is switched and wire is fed, the actual start of

welding,

3. switched pressed again -- stop of welding, gas remains flowing,

4. switch released -- cut off the gas.

5.2.3 Burnback time

Burnback time is a delay between the time when the wire starts to brake until the

time when the power source switches off the welding voltage. Too short burnback

time results in a long wire stickout after completion of welding, with a risk of the wire

being caught in the weld pool. Too long a burnback time results in a shorter stickout,

with increased risk of the arc striking back to the contact tip.

5.2.4 Creep start

Creep start means that the wire is fed at reduced speed within 1 sec after welding

torch trigger is pressed, and then the speed increases to the set speed.

5.2.5 Inching and gas purge modes

Set the required mode by means of the knob (3). Inching or gas purge is started by

means of the torch switch.

5.2.6 Wire feed speed

This sets the required feed speed of the filler wire in m/minute.

5.2.7 Spot welding

Set the spot welding mode by means of the knob (3). Set the required time of the

spot welding by means of the knob (5). Other settings as for previously described

modes. The control sequence is similar to 2--stroke mode sequence. The difference

is that the welding is stopped automatically after particular time. The torch switch

must be pressed up to the end of welding. Releasing the torch switch enables the

next spot welding cycle.
