Icons for other faults:
The built-in selfprotection system can
also inform the user about other
faults.
The machine should be switched off
and on in order to remove the text.
If the fault code is shown several times, please
contact seller.
Fixed functions
The functions below are fixed and cannot be
connected and disconnected from the display:
Stop of gas flow in case of fault identification
The machine automatically stops the gas flow to the
torch, turns off the welding current in order to let a
possible arc extinguish and stops the wire feeding in
case of a fault.
Automatic stop of re-ignition
Re-ignition is not possible after 5 sec. in case of a
missing arc during ignition.
The arc extinguishes
Welding stops and gas post-flow begins, if the arc
extinguishes during welding. The arc can be re-
established when trigging the torch again.
MAINTENANCE
Lack of maintenance can lead to reduced re-
liability and cancellation of the guarantee.
The FLEX 3000 welding machines require periodical
maintenance. However, the user can carry through
maintenance in the wire room.
Periodical maintenance
In order to prevent problems arising, the follow-
ing procedure should be observed at least once a
year or as required.
-
Disconnect the machine from the mains supply
and wait 2 minutes before removing the front
panels. Only trained and qualified staff members
must carry through this procedure.
Clean the fan blades and the components in the
-
cooling pipe with clean, dry, compressed air.
-
Drain the cooling liquid out of the cooling module
and welding hoses. Remove dirt and flush with
pure water in the tank and cooling hoses. Fill up
with new cooling liquid. The machine is delivered
with a cooling liquid of type propan-2-ol in the
ratio 23% propan-2-ol and 77% demineralized
water, which provides an anti-freeze solution up to
–9°C.
