• All welding connections must be firmly secured, check regularly !
• Check that the metal piece fixation is strong and without any electrical problems !
• Attach or hang all the electrically conductive elements, such as the trolley and slinging equipment, in order to insulate them
• Do not place any electrical equipment, such as drills or grinders, on top of the welding machine without insulating them !
• Always place welding torches on an insulated surface when they're not in use !
EQUIPMENT INSTALLATION
• Put the machine on the floor (maximum incline of 10°).
• Ensure the work area has sufficient ventillation for welding, and that there is easy access to the control panel.
• The machine must not be used in an area with conductive metal dusts.
• The machine must be placed in a sheltered area away from rain or direct sunlight.
• The machine protection level is IP21, which means :
- Protection against acess to dangerous parts from solid bodies of a ≥12.5mm diameter and,
- Protection against vertically falling drops.
The power cables, extensions and welding cables must be fully uncoiled to prevent overheating.
The manufacturer does not incur any responsability regarding damages to both objects and persons that result from an incorrect
and/or dangerous use of the machine .
MAINTENANCE / RECOMMENDATIONS
• Maintenance should only be carried out by a qualified person. Annual maintenance is recommended.
• Ensure the machine is unplugged from the mains, and wait for two minutes before carrying out maintenance work. DANGER
High Voltage and Currents inside the machine.
• Remove the casing 2 or 3 times a year to remove any excess dust. Take this opportunity to have the electrical connections
checked by a qualified person, with an insulated tool.
• Regularly check the condition of the power supply cable. If the power cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer,
its after sales service or an equally qualified person.
• Ensure the ventilation holes of the device are not blocked to allow adequate air circulation.
• Do not use this equipment to thaw pipes, to charge batteries, or to start any engine.
INSTALLATION – PRODUCT OPERATION
DESCRIPTION
Thank you for choosing this machine. To get the best from your machine, please read the following carefully :
The NOVOMIG is a traditional machine for welding semi-automatic MIG/MAG (DC current). These machines can weld all types of wire : Steel, Stainless
Steel, Aluminium, flux (no gas).
Adjustment and Setting of these machines is easy with their SMART feature.
ELECTRICITY SUPPLY
This machine is fitted with a 16A socket type CEE7/7 which must be connected to a single-phase 230V (50 - 60 Hz) power supply fitted with three
wires and one earthed neutral.
The absorbed effective current (I1eff) is displayed on the machine, for optimal use. Check that the power supply and its protection (fuse and/or
circuit breaker) are compatible with the current needed by the machine. In some countries, it may be necessary to change the plug to allow the use
at maximum settings.

SEMI-AUTOMATIC WELDING FOR STEEL / STAINLESS STEEL (MAG MODE) (FIG-II)
These machines can weld Steel and Stainless Steel wires of 0.6/0.8 or 1.0mm (Fig II - A)
The machine is delivered equipped to function with Ø 0.8mm Steel/Stainless steel wire, and the contact tip, roller throat and the sleeve of the torch
supplied are suitable for this application.
Should you wish to use 0.6mm wire, you will need to change the contact tip. The wire reel is reversable (0.6 / 0.8mm) and will need to be inserted
into the machine so that the figure 0.6 is visible. For welding with Ø 1.0mm wire, you will need to use a specific roller and contact tip.
For welding with Steel or Stainless Steel it is necessary to use
For use with Steel/Stainless Steel, the gas requirement is Argon + CO2. (Ar+CO2). The proportion of CO2 required will vary depending on the use.
For specific gas requirements, please contact your gas distributor. The gas flow in steel is between 12 and 18 Litres/minute depending on the envi-
ronment and experience of the welder.
