C17253e

Duty cycle

The duty cycle refers to the time as a percentage of a ten--minute period that you can weld at a cer-

tain load without overloading.

Enclosure class

The IP code indicates the enclosure class, i. e. the degree of protection against penetration y solid

o jects or water. Equipment marked IP23 is designed for indoor and outdoor use.

Application class

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

electrical hazard.

5 IN TALLATION

The installation must be executed by a professional.

ote!

Connect the power source to the electricity mains with a network impedance of 0.268 (C250 3ph) ohm

or lower. If the network impedance is higher there is a risk of flicker in the illuminators.

WARNING!

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

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

5.1 Placing

Position the welding power source such way that its cooling air inlets and outlets are

not o structed.

5.2 Assembly of components

For packing and shipment of the machine the wheels are detached from the unit.

Before use attach the wheels according to instruction.

6 OPERATION

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

page 3. Read through before you start using the equipment!

WARNING!

Rotating parts can cause injury, take great care.

To prevent the reel sliding off the hu : Lock the reel in place y turning

the red kno as shown on the warning la el attached next to the hu .

WARNING!

WARNING -- TIPPING RI K!

There is a risk of tipping while transportation and operation, if the welding machine leans

more than 10o. In that case appropriate securing has to e provided !

6.2 Welding without gas

6.3 Wire feed pressure

Start y making sure that the wire moves smoothly through the wire guide. Then

set the pressure of the wire feeder’s pressure rollers. It is important that the

pressure is not too great.

Fig 1 Fig 2

To check that the feed pressure is set correctly, you can feed out the wire against

an insolated o ject, e.g. a piece of wood.

When you hold the gun approx. 5 mm from the piece of wood (fig. 1) the feed

rollers should slip.

If you hold the gun approx. 50 mm from the piece of wood, the wire should e

fed out and end (fig. 2).

6.4 Replacing and inserting wire

SOpen the side panel.

SDisconnect the pressure sensor y folding it ackwards, the pressure rollers

slide up.

-- 10 --

C17253e

SStraighten out the new wire 10--20 cm. File away urrs and sharp edges from the

end of the wire efore inserting it into the wire feed unit.

SMake sure that the wire goes properly into the feed roller track and into the outlet

nozzle and the wire guide.

SSecure the pressure sensor.

SClose the side panel.

6.5 Overheating protection

When the machine is switched on with the mains switch [1], indicating lamp [2] is on and

lamp [3] off -- the machine is ready to operate. If the internal temperature ecomes too

high, the welding is interrupted and disa led. This state is indicated y lighting of the

orange indicating lamp [3] on the front of the machine. It resets automatically when the

temperature has fallen.

7 MAINTENANCE

Regular maintenance is important for safe reliable operation.

ote!

All guarantee undertakings from the supplier cease to apply if the customer himself

attempts any work in the product during the guarantee period in order to rectify any

faults.

7.1 Inspection and cleaning

Check regularly that the power source is free from dirt.

The power source should e regularly lown clean using dry compressed air at reduced

pressure. More frequently in dirty environments. Otherwise the air inlet/outlet may e-

come locked and cause overheating.

Welding gun

SCleaning and replacement of the welding gun’s wear parts should take place at

regular intervals in order to achieve trou le--free wire feed. Blow the wire guide

clean regularly and clean the contact tip.

The brake hub

The hu is adjusted when delivered, if

readjustment is required, follow the instructions

elow. Adjust the rake hu so that wire is slightly

slack when wire feed stops.

SAdjusting the braking torque:

STurn the red handle to the locked position.

SInsert a screwdriver into the springs in the hu .

Turn the springs clockwise to reduce the raking torque

Turn the springs anticlockwise to increase the raking torque. NB: Turn oth

springs through the same amount.
