ADVICE AND THERMAL PROTECTION
• Respect the normal rules of welding
• Leave the machine plugged in after welding to allow it to cool
• Thermal Protection : The LED will illuminate. Cooling will take between 10 and 15 minutes depending on the
ambient temperature.
DUTY CYCLE & WELDING ENVIRONMENT DURING USE
• The welding unit describes an output characteristic of "constant current" type. The duty cycles following the stan-
dard EN60974-1 (at 40°C on a 10mn cycle) are indicated in the table below :
During intensive use (> duty cycle) the thermal protection can activate, if this event the arc switches off and the ther-
mal protection indicator switches on. The welding machine has a constant voltage output.
Note: The machines' duty cycle has been tested at room temperature (40°C) and has been determined by
simulation
TROUBLESHOOTING
SYMPTOMS
The welding wire speed is not
constant.
The wire-feeder motor doesn't
operate.
Bad wire feeding.
No welding current
The wire jams (after the rollers).
The welding bead is porous.
The arc produces a lot of sparks

POSSIBLE CAUSES
Debris is blocking up the opening.
The wire skids in the rollers
Reel or roller brake too tight
Electrical supply problem.
Covering wire guide dirty or damaged Clean or replace
Reel brake too tight
Bad connection to the main supply
Bad earth connection.
Guide wire sheath crushed.
Wire jammed in the torch
No capillary tube.
Wire speed too fast
Nozzle dirty
Poor quality wire.
Work piece in bad condition. (rust,
etc...)
Arc voltage too low or too high.
Bad earth connection.

Clean out the contact tip or change it
and replace the anti-adherence
product.

Check the roller pressure or replace
it.
- Wire diameter incompatible with
roller
- Covering Wire guide in the torch
incompatible
Adjust the brake and rollers.
Check the power switch is in the "On"
position.
Release the brake
Check the mains connection and
ensure the supply is 230V (1PH)
power socket.
Check the earth cable (connection
and clamp condition).
Check the sheath and torch body.
Clean or replace.
Check the presence of capillary tube.
Reduce the wire speed.
Clean or replace nozzle.
Use suitable wire for no gas welding.
Clean the metal before welding.
See welding settings.
Adjust the earth cable for a better
connection.
