MIG/MAG welding
Caution! Before starting up for the first time read the
sections headed "Safety rules" and "Starting to use the
power source".
- Plug the earth cable into the current socket
firmly.
- Connect the other end of the earth cable to the workpiece
- Plug the torch into the central torch connector
- Attach the water hoses of the welding torch to the plug-type
connections
and
- Plug the machine into the mains
- Shift the mains switch

Caution! On water-cooled machines, the water-flow
must be checked at regular intervals while the machine
is in operation - you must be able to see that the coolant
is flowing back properly.

N.B.! For details of how to set the parameters for the "Alumini-
um welding start-up" and "Spot welding" torch operating mo-
des, please see the section headed "The set-up menu".
- Use the Program button
program ("characteristic") according to the table of the pro-
grams
- Specify the required welding power, via either the sheet
thickness
, welding current
parameter
N.B.! The parameters sheet thickness
wirefeed speed
are directly interlinked. It is sufficient to
change just one of the four parameters, as the other three
parameters are always automatically adjusted to match.
N.B.! (Applies to the "Spot welding" torch operating mode: If no
current-flow starts up within 2 seconds, the machine switches
itself off. This means that when you try again, you must press
the torch trigger again.
- Open the gas-cylinder valve
- Set the gas-flow rate
- Press the torch trigger and start welding
In order to achieve an optimum welding result, it is necessary
in some cases to make corrections to the arc-length correction
and droplet-detachment / arc-force correction parameters as
well as to the background parameters gas pre and post-flow and
/ or soft-start.
