EN - 8
PA liners = for aluminium, copper, nickel and stainless steels.
1 Sharpen the front of the PA liner to approx. 40° with the ABICOR BINZEL
sharpener and slide PA liner through the cable hose until a noticeable
resistance is felt in the contact tip.
2 Slide forward the liner collet, O-ring and liner retention nut on the PA liner
and tighten the liner retention nut under compression.
3 Mark excess PA liner in front of the wire feed rollers and Cut the PA liner at
the mark with the ABICOR BINZEL cutter.
4 Sharpen the liner after cutting.
NOTE
• For PA liners of outer diameter 4.00 mm, the capillary tube in the
adaptor kit must be replaced by a guide tube.
1 Connect Euro plug and adaptor kit at the wire feed unit and secure them
with the retention nut.
2 Properly mount the connections for water supply/return, shielding gas and
control line plug.
NOTE
• Check the minimum coolant level of the cooling device.
• Make sure that the coolant supply and return have been installed
properly. Coolant supply = blue, Coolant return = red.
• Do not use any deionized or demineralized water as coolant or for
tightness or flow tests.
This may impair the service life of your welding torch.
• For liquid-cooled MIG/MAG welding torches, we recommend using the
ABICOR BINZEL coolant BTC-15.
• Each time the device is commissioned or after each hose assembly
change, the cooling system must be ventilated as follow: disconnect the
coolant return hose from the re-circulating cooling unit, and hold it over a
collecting device. Close the opening at the coolant return hose. Open it
again by repeatedly and abruptly releasing it, until the coolant is flowing
continuously and without air bubbles.
