Start Up
Turning On
• Turn ON the general switch (A) located in the back side
of the welder.
• When the ON light is on (B) the internal fan will start
running.
Adjustments
• As a general rule, low current requires feeding the micro
wire in low speed. If increasing the work current is necessary,
increase the micro wire speed as well.
• To set up the work current use the tension control (C).
• To configure the micro wire outlet speed, use the micro wire speed control (D).
• Remember to make tests in scrap material with the same characteristics as the final material to determine the right configuration
for the job. Aside from current and micro wire speed there are other factors intervening in the welding performance, like the wire
diameter and characteristics, the distance between the nozzle and the work material, the torch angle and the amount of gas
delivered.
Operation
• To assure the flowing of the electric circuit clean 1" to 1,5" around the zone where the grounding clamp will be
connected and around the zone to be welded to the work pieces.
• Connect the grounding clamp to the work piece or to the work table where the work piece will be supported.
• Connect the welder to the power supply.
• Once the welder is properly installed, connected and set up and all the safety measures have been taken you may start
the welding job.
• Wear the welders' helmet to start welding.
MIG
• Set the welder process selector (1) into the MIG modality
(Micro wire
).
• Hold the torch with your hand and point the contact
nozzle towards the slot to be welded. Use a 30° angle
approximately to be able to see the contact point between
the electrode and the work piece.
• Put the welder's helmet down.
• Make contact with the micro wire tip onto the work piece
while pressing the torch trigger (E). The current will
generate the electric arc (F) between the work piece and
the micro wire (G).
• With the GMAW soldering, while the micro wire is fed, the
gas (H) is released to protect the arc.
• To stop the job, release the torch trigger. The current will
stop passing, the micro wire will stop as well as the gas
flow.
