Insert the stud bolt in the clamp X so that it is fi rmly held
in place by the four springs.
Adjust the protrusion of the stud bolt from the front of the
clamp to 1 ÷ 1.5 mm using the screw V, then tighten with
the nut W (fi gure 2).
Insert the clamp X into the chuck of the gun (fi g. 2), press
until you feel it rest all the way down, and tighten the nut
S using the 17-mm hexagon wrench provided.

g
a
Stud bolt
b
Base material
c
Rivet material and dimensions
NOTE: the maximum rivet length that can be used is
30mm (1-1/4")
d
Type of base material
e
Indication as to weld quality.
This symbol with the letter Q indicates that the stud
material and the base material that have been selected
are weldable, poorly weldable or non-weldable (See
table 1).
good weldability
poor weldability
non-weldable
f
Indications/warnings during the welding phase.
During welding phases these symbols provide
process-related indications:
When the machine is switched
on, for a few seconds the
display A will show the
machine item number, version
and development date of the
software.
c
e
d
h
f
f steadily lit: indicates that the generator is ready
to carry out a welding operation.
f
f steadily lit: indicates that the stud bolt is in
contact with the base material and
the generator is ready to carry out the
welding operation.
f
f fl ashing:
indicates that, after the welding was
completed, the gripping clamp X of
the gun was not removed from the
stud bolt.
f
f fl ashinge: indicates that, after the welding
was completed, the start button
and microswitch inside the gun
were pressed during charging of the
capacitors.
g
Value suggested by the force of the spring inside the
gun (if the force setting is changed, it is recommended
also to change the value indicated on the display so
that in the future this change will remain memorized.
The change from the suggested value will be indicated
by an arrow pointing upward if it is increased or
downward if it is decreased).
h
Charge voltage of the capacitors (if the voltage
setting is changed from the suggested value, it will
be indicated by an arrow pointing upward if it is
increased or downward if it is decreased).
During the adjustment, the voltage value will fl ash to
indicate that the generator is working to reach the
requested value.
Whilst the voltage value is fl ashing, it is not possible
to perform any welding operation.
3.3.1 SETTINGS
Press the knob G for at least 2 seconds to open the
"Process Params" (Process Parameters) menu.
The following parameters are selectable from this menu:
- Stud Material
- Base material
- Spring Force
- Language
- Measure system
- LCD contrast
- Factory Setup
To access each parameter, select it by turning the knob G
and then press it for less than 2 seconds.
Once you have accessed the parameter, turn the knob G
to make the desired choice and then press it again for less
than 2 seconds to confi rm the choice made and go back
