when pressed:
- : no protection; it is possible to browse, set and modify all welding
parameters.
- : intermediate protection; it is only possible to modify the basic welding
parameters.
- : maximum protection; it is impossible to modify any parameters.
12.2 SERVICE MENU (Fig. L-15)
This provides information on the welding machine status.
12.2.1 INFO MENU
- : welding machine operations in days (DDDD), hours (HH), minutes
(mm).
- : welding machine working days (DDDD), hours (HH), minutes (mm).
- : alarms list.
12.2.2 FIRMWARE MENU
- : use to update the welding machine software via USB pen drive.
- : use to reset the welding machine to its default settings.
- : software release installed.
12.2.3 REPORT MENU
Use to generate a report and save it to a USB pen drive. The report contains various
information on the welding machine status (software installed, life/working hours,
alarms, selected welding process etc.).
12.2.4 CALIBRATION
After selecting the service icon
push buttons simultaneously and then confirm by pressing the multifunction knob (C-
5). The screen displays the icon
meet EN 50504 standard requirements when pressed.
12.3 MODE MENU (Fig. L-16)
Use to select settings on the screens in MIG-MAG mode:
- : all settings are displayed as described above.
- : Fig. L-17. The piece to be welded and the welding seam shape are
indicated in this mode. Press button C-6 to access all the other settings.
When operating in "EASY" mode, it is impossible to weld in MIG MANUAL and PoP
mode.
12.4 JOBS MENU (Fig. L-18)
Used to:
- : save a job in the welding machine internal memory.
- : retrieve and load a previously saved job.
- : cancel a previously saved job.
- : import jobs from a USB device.
- : export jobs to a USB device.
- : allow saving of welding parameters to the USB device.
13. MAINTENANCE
WARNING! BEFORE CARRYING OUT MAINTENANCE OPERATIONS
MAKE SURE THE WELDING MACHINE IS SWITCHED OFF AND DISCONNECTED
FROM THE MAIN POWER SUPPLY.
13.1 ROUTINE MAINTENANCE:
ROUTINE MAINTENANCE OPERATIONS CAN BE CARRIED OUT BY THE
OPERATOR.
13.1.1 Torch
- Do not put the torch or its cable on hot pieces; this would cause the insulating
materials to melt, making the torch unusable after a very short time.
- Make regular checks on the gas pipe and connector seals.
- Accurately match collet and collet body with the selected electrode diameter in order
to avoid overheating, bad gas diffusion and poor performance.
- At least once a day check the terminal parts of the torch for wear and make sure they
are assembled correctly: nozzle, electrode, electrode-holder clamp, gas diffuser.
- Before using the welding machine, always check the terminal parts of the torch for
wear and make sure they are assembled correctly: nozzle, electrode, electrode-
holder clamp, gas diffuser.
13.1.2 Wire feeder
- Make frequent checks on the state of wear of the wire feeder rollers, regularly
remove the metal dust deposited in the feeder area (rollers and wire-guide infeed
and outfeed).
, press the wire feed (C-2) and gas bleed (C-3)
used to set 3 different function block levels
, press the wire feed (C-2) and gas bleed (C-3)
used to calibrate the welding machine to
13.2 EXTRAORDINARY MAINTENANCE
EXTRAORDINARY MAINTENANCE MUST ONLY BE CARRIED OUT BY
TECHNICIANS WHO ARE EXPERT OR QUALIFIED IN THE ELECTRIC-
MECHANICAL FIELD, AND IN FULL RESPECT OF THE IEC/EN 60974-4
TECHNICAL DIRECTIVE.
WARNING! BEFORE REMOVING THE WELDING MACHINE PANELS
AND WORKING INSIDE THE MACHINE MAKE SURE THE WELDING MACHINE
IS SWITCHED OFF AND DISCONNECTED FROM THE MAIN POWER SUPPLY
OUTLET.
If checks are made inside the welding machine while it is live, this may cause
serious electric shock due to direct contact with live parts and/or injury due to
direct contact with moving parts.
- Inspect the welding machine regularly, with a frequency depending on use and the
dustiness of the environment, and remove the dust deposited on the transformer,
reactance and rectifier using a jet of dry compressed air (max. 10 bar).
- Do not direct the jet of compressed air on the electronic boards; these can be
cleaned with a very soft brush or suitable solvents.
- At the same time make sure the electrical connections are tight and check the wiring
for damage to the insulation.
- At the end of these operations re-assemble the panels of the welding machine and
screw the fastening screws right down.
- Never, ever carry out welding operations while the welding machine is open.
- After having carried out maintenance or repairs, restore the connections and wiring
as they were before, making sure they do not come into contact with moving parts or
parts that can reach high temperatures. Tie all the wires as they were before, being
careful to keep the high voltage connections of the primary transformer separate
from the low voltage ones of the secondary transformer.
Use all the original washers and screws when closing the casing.
14. TROUBLESHOOTING (TAB. 6)
IN CASE OF UNSATISFACTORY FUNCTIONING, BEFORE SERVICING MACHINE
OR REQUESTING ASSISTANCE, CARRY OUT THE FOLLOWING CHECK:
- Check that when general switch is ON the relative lamp is ON. If this is not the case
then the problem is located on the mains (cables, plugs, outlets, fuses, etc.)
- There is no alarm signalling intervention of the thermostat safeguard, over or
undervoltage or short-circuit.
- Check that the nominal intermittance ratio is correct. In case there is a thermal
protection interruption, wait for the machine to cool down, check that the fan is
working properly.
- Check the mains voltage: if the value is too high or too low the welding machine will
be stopped.
- Check that there is no short-circuit at the output of the machine: if this is the case
eliminate the incovenience.
- Check that all connections of the welding circuit are correct, particularly that the
work clamp is well attached to the workpiece, with no interferring material or surface-
coverings (ie. Paint).
- Protective gas must be of appropriate type and quantity.
