Safety instructions for putting into operation for the first time
1. Welding helmet
2. Welding pinafore
3. Welding gloves
•
Pay attention to sufficient safeguarding of electric supply.
•
Wear specified protective clothing (fig.11).
•
Make sure that no other persons are present in the work area or in possible dangerous area.
•
Pay attention to avoid any inflammable material in the work area.
•
Insert the plug into the corresponding socket, the socket must be secured by a fusible cut-out or power
protective switch.
•
The mains cable and possible extending cables must be at least of the same crosscut.
•
ATTENTION! Electric safety is ensured only on the condition that the machine is properly connected to
effective grounding equipment in accordance to regulations for electrical equipment in force.
•
Make sure that useful mains voltage and frequency correspond to the data specified at the machine type
plate.
Procedure
When assembling individual parts proceed in the illustrated order.
Keep proper arranging of assembly parts according to figures. The machine has not been workable yet. Open the gas
flow t the pressure of 5-7 l/min. Protect the gas output from wind blasts. In addition to that it is necessary to bear in
mind the following information too: First levels of the switch 1-2 serve for welding of thin sheet metals while other levels
server for thicker walls. At any change of the switch level also the wire feeding speed should be adjusted. If a drop
forms at the end of the wire during welding the speed of wire feeding must be increased, on the other hand if you feel
the pressure of the wire against the hose you should decrease the speed. Because parts being just welded are very hot
always use pliers in case you want to move them and remove sediments at the end of the burner. As soon as the
electric arc ignites hold the hose approx. at angle of 30° in relation to the perpendicular.
Threading of the welding wire
1. Open upper lid of welding machine and secure the lid with safety pin.
2. Insert the coil with welding wire so that the wire can be drawn into feeding straight.
Caution: Pay attention that the wire does not unroll from the coil and its end is flat and without any burr.
The coil resistance can be adjusted at clamping nut in the centre.
3) Open the knob (fig. 13 - A)
4) Lift the stirrup element (fig. 13 - F).
5) Check whether grooves at the wire feeding pulley correspond to the wire diameter, in case of necessity turn the
revolving handle (fig. 13 - B) counter-clockwise, remove the pulley and insert it into correct groove. Now seat the
stirrup element (fig.13 - F) and tighten the revolving knob (fig. 13 - A) until the wire coils up uniformly. If the wire
slips off the pulley tighten the knob even further. Attention: Do not tighten too tightly otherwise the excessive
pressure to the pulley could cause damage to the wire feeding motor.
6) Now turn the welding machine on.
7) Then, after ensuring the performance of all safety measures, set the switch (fig. 21/1) to level 1 and wire feed
adjustment (fig. 21/2) to level 1.
8) Remove gas and stream nozzles and holding the pressure switch on the hose depressed let the wire protrude from
it (when the hose is tensed fig. 18). Than replace stream and gas nozzles again back.
9) Adjust the necessary amount of gas at the fittings of the gas cylinder.
Tip: (0.6 mm-wire → 6 l/h); (0.8 mm-wire → 8 l/h); (1.0 mm-wire → 10 l/h)
10) Now the machine is ready for welding.
