GYS M1 AUTO Mode D'emploi page 11

DESCRIPTION
Thank you for choosing our product! In order to take the most of your Mig welder please read the following
instructions carefully:
These welding are recommended to weld steel, stainless steel, aluminium and for the "MIG Brazing" of high-tensile
strength steels with CuSi and CuAl wires (ideal for car body repairs). Its adjustment is easy and fast thanks to its
« synergic wire speed » function. They work on a 380V 3-phase power supply or 220V/380V 3-phase for the T1 GYS
auto DV and T3 GYS auto DV. The M1 GYS AUTO works on a 230V single phase power supply.
ELECTRICITY SUPPLY
The absorbed current (I1eff) is indicated on the device, for the maximum use conditions. Check that the power supply
and its protections (fuse and/or circuit breaker) are compatible with the current needed at use. In some countries, it
might be necessary to change the plug to allow the use at maximum conditions. The device must be placed in such way
that the power socket is always accessible.
- These welding, are supplied with a 16A plug of RS-015 CEE.
- The M1 GYS AUTO has to be connected to a 230 V (50Hz) earthed power supply with a a circuit breaker 16A and 1
differential 30mA.
- The T1 GYS auto, T3 GYS auto, T1 GYS auto DV and T3 GYS auto DV have to be connnected to a 380 V (50Hz) ear-
thed power supply with a a circuit breaker 10A and 1 differential 30mA. Do not use an extension cord which has a wire
section inferior to 2.5 mm².
- For the T1 GYS auto DV and T3 GYS auto DV only, 220V 3-phase power supply:
this device is pre-built in 380V three-phase. If your electrical installation is in 220V 3-phase, you have to modify the
connection on the terminal board. This modification has to be realized by a competent person. (see the electrical dia-
gram at the end of the manual)
CONTROLS AND FEATURES (FIG 1 & 2)
1- switch On-Off
2- 7 positions power adjustement switch : aloows adjust-
ment of the welding voltage at the generator output. The
adjustment of the output voltage is proportional to the
thickness of the material to weld. (refer to page 6)
3- welding settings adjustement keyboard (manual or
automatic mode)
4- European standard torch coupling
5- spool on gun coupling command
6- thermal protection light : informs when a short break
is necessary following intensive use.
7- torch support
8- supply cable (2m M1GYS AUTO, 3m T1GYS, 6m
T3GYS).
SEMI-AUTOMATIC WELDING FOR STEEL/STAINLESS STEEL (MAG MODE)(FIG 2)
These welding can weld 0.6/0.8 and 1.0mm steel and stainless steel wires (fig 2A). The device is capable of working
with Ø 0.8 mm steel wire (contact tube Ø 0.8, roller Ø 0.6/0.8 and Ø 0.8/1.0). If you need to use Ø 0.6mm wire, you will
have to change the contact tube, and ensure that the reversible rollers in the wire feeder are posititioned correctly (so
that the writing that states "0.6mm" is visible when in place). For Steel or Stainless Steel, you will need to use specific
gas - Argon + CO2 (Ar + CO2). The proportion of CO2 will vary depending on usage. The gas flow in steel is between 8
and 12L / min depending on the environment and experience of the welder. For the specific requirements, seek advice
from your gas distributor.
SEMI-AUTOMATIC WELDING FOR ALUMINIUM (FIG 2)
These welding can weld 0.8 and 1mm aluminium wires (fig 2B).
To weld aluminium, neutral gas "pure argon" (AR) is required. When choosing gas, ask a gas distributor for advice.
The gas flow in aluminium should be between 15 and 25 L / min depending on the environment and experience of the
welder.
Things to note when welding with Aluminium:
-Set the pressure rollers of the wire feeder on the wire at the minimum pressure so as not to pinch the wire
- Remove the capillary tube before connecting the aluminium torch
- When welding aluminium use a special aluminium torch with Teflon sheath to reduce friction. Do not cut the sheath
near the connector! It is used to guide the wire from the rollers. (diagram 3-B )
