INSTALLATION – PRODUCT OPERATION
Only qualified personnel authorised by the manufacturer should perform the installation of the welding equipment. During the
installation, the operator must ensure that the machine is disconnected from the mains.
Only qualified personnel authorized by the manufacturer should perform the installation of the welding equipment. During set up,
the operator must ensure that the machine is unplugged.
Risk of injury due to moving parts!
The wire feeders contain moving parts that may catch hand, hair, clothes or tools which can lead to injuries! Take extra care.
• Do not place your hand on mobile/pivoting/wire feeding parts of the machine!
• Make sure that all panels remain closed when in use !
• Do not wear gloves when feeding the wire through or changing reel.
DESCRIPTION
TF-4RN is an air-cooled separate wire feeder for the 3-phase MIG/MAG generators MIG 400G/400 DUO. It accepts 200 and 300 mm wire reels.
The TF-4RN is equipped with a swivel support to be fixed on the generator.
TF-4W is an air-cooled separate wire feeder for the 3-phase MIG/MAG generators MIG 400G DV WS. It accepts 200 and 300 mm wire reels.
The TF-4W is equipped with a swivel support to be fixed on the generator.
DEVICE PRESENTATION (I)
1- Coil holder 200 & 300 mm
2- Motorized hose reel
3- Carrying handle
4- Yarn speed potentiometer
5- Euro torch connector
6- Side torch support
7- Wheels
8- Upper part of the turret
ASSEMBLY & CONNECTION (II)
Attaching the turret to the generator
The turret is fixed on the reel support of the reel reel. Remove the retaining screw and then the turret. Use the 3 screws already present on the
generator to mount the lower turret element on it. The upper part of the turret, already mounted on the reel, is embedded in it.
Connection of the connecting harness between the reel and the generator:
Make sure the generator is switched off before performing this operation.
- Connect the power cable of the connecting harness between the connectors (12), taking care to tighten the connectors securely.
- Connect the control cable of the connecting harness between the connectors (11).
- Connect the gas hose of the connecting harness between the connectors (10).
For WS versions only:
- Connect the water pipes between the fittings (13).
WIRE REEL INSTALLATION (III)
• Open the door of the machine et remove the retaining screw (3)
• Position the reel on to the support (1).
• Adjust the reel brake (2) to avoid reel movement tangling the wire when the welding stops. Be careful not to tighten too much - the reel must rotate
without straining the motor.
• Tighten the plastic screw firmly (3).
• For the first use :
- Release the fixing screw of the wire guide (4)
- Put the rollers in place (5). The visible diameter on the roller should be equal to the wire diameter used.
- Place the wire guide (6) as close as possible to the roller but without touching it, then tighten the fixing screw.
• To select the adjustment of the drive rollers: loosen the drive roller knob as far as possible (7), insert the wire until it exits the other side by about
2cm. Start the motor by pressing the torch trigger, tighten the knob whilst pressing the trigger. Bend the wire where it comes out of the nozzle and
hold it in place to stop its progress - the setting is correct when the guide roller slides over the wire, even when it is blocked at the end of the torch.
USE
TF-4 allows the user welding using the parameters set on the MIG generator. To adjust the settings to the type and diameter of wire used, please
refer to the generator's manual.
It is possible to change the wire speed, in synergic or manual mode using the potentiometer on the front panel.
In order to use the separate wire feeder's torch, press the trigger - the LEDs on the generator's control panel will start to flash, indicating the
change of torch.
The Speed of the wire feeder is between 1m/min to 20m/min. The maximum gas pressure must not exceed 5 bars (0.5 MPa).
