7. ERROR INDICATOR = The indicator lights in the following two situations:
a) If the machine has malfunctioned and cannot be operated.
b) If the cutting device has exceeded the standard working time the protection mode is initiated
and the machine will stop functioning. This means that the machine is now being cooled in order
to be able to restore temperature control again after the device has overheated. Therefore the
machine is stopped. During this process, the red warning light on the front panel lights up. In this
case it is not necessary to remove the power plug from the socket. The ventilation system may
be left on in order to enhance the cooling of the machine. When the red light goes dark, this
means that the temperature is now down to the normal level and the unit can be put back into
operation.
8. GAS connection – at the back of the device
9. MMA-connection = Manual arc welding, called MMA, is one of the oldest electric welding proce-
dures used for metallic materials which is still used today. An electronic arc, formed between an
electrode melted as a filler metal and the workpiece, is used as a heat source for welding.
10. Grounding cable connection
The device can be operated both with gas and solid wire, as well as with flux-cored wire. In order to use flux-
cored wires with the S-MIGMA-155 | S-MIGMA-175 | S-MIGMA-195 the poles must be changed according
to the drawing.
„GAS:" –MIG full-wire welding
„NO GAS:" – cored-wire welding (FLUX)
Installation of the wire coil and inserting the wire:
S-MIGMA-155:
1. Open the upper cover(S-MIGMA-155) / left side door (S-MIGMA-175 | S-MIGMA-195) of the welder
by pulling the lever.
2. Please observe the size of the coil holder. The size must match the diameter of the coil. Place the coil
on the rack.
3. Next pull out the wire clockwise. The beginning of the wire is usually fixed to the coil, so that the wire
cannot be separated from the coil. Use a standard coil. The size of the holder is in accordance with the
standard.

4. Loosen the anchor bolt on the coil holder. Then place the coil on the rack. Attach the anchor bolt and
tighten it so that the wire cannot slip off. Please remember not to attach this element too tightly, as it
might negatively impact the welding effectiveness of the device. Please keep the end of the wire straight
and free of burrs.
5. Open the rotary knob
6. Raise the pressure element.
7. Check that the grooves on the wire feed roll match the wire diameter.
8. Now lower the pressure element and tighten the knob until the wire runs evenly on the rolls. If the
wire slips on the rolls, tighten the knob further. Caution: Do not tighten the element too much, as
excessive pressure on the rolls may damage the wire feed motor.
9. Switch on the welding device (ON/OFF switch).
10. Set the required volume of gas at the valve of the gas cylinder.
11. The device is now ready for welding.
5. DISPOSING OF PACKAGING
The various items used for packaging (cardboard, plastic straps, polyurethane foam) should be kept, so that
the device can be sent back to the service centre in the best possible condition in case of any problems!
6. TRANSPORTATION AND STORAGE
Shaking, crashing and turning upside down of the device should be prevented when it is transported. Store it
in a properly ventilated surrounding with dry air and without any corrosive gas.
7. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
• Disconnect from electricity when cleaning equipment.
• Use cleaner without corrosive substances to clean surface.
• Dry all parts well after cleaning, before the device is used again.
• Store the unit in a dry, cool location, free from moisture and direct exposure to sunlight.
8. REGULAR CONTROL OF THE DEVICE
Check regularly that the device doesn´t present any damage. If there is any damage, please stop using the
