HMI
POWER SWITCH
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 indicated on the device for optimum operating conditions. Check that the power supply and its safeguards
(fuse and/or circuit breaker) are compatible with the electric current being used. In some countries, it may be necessary to change the plug to allow
the use at maximum settings.
• The machine is designed to work on a 230V -20% +15% power supply. It switches to protection mode if the power supply voltage is below 185V RMS
or over 265V RMS. (An error code will appear on the display screen).
• Starting is done by pressing the START/STOP switch (On), and stopping is done by pressing the same switch (Off). Warning! Never switch off the
power supply while the unit is under load.
CONNECTING TO A POWER SOURCE
This equipment can be operated with electric generators provided that the auxiliary power supply meets the following requirements:
- The voltage must be alternating with an RMS value of 230 V -20% +15% and a peak voltage of less than 400V.
- The frequency must be between 50 and 60 Hz.
It is vital to check these conditions as many generators produce high voltage peaks that can damage equipment.
USING EXTENSION LEADS
All extension leads must be of a suitable length and width that is appropriate to the equipment's voltage. Use an extension lead that complies with
national safety regulations.

- Remove the nozzle (a) and contact tube (b) from your MIG/MAG torch.
Open the power source's hatch.
- Position the reel on its holder.
- Take into consideration the reel stands's drive lug (c). To fit a 200 mm reel, tighten the
plastic reel holder (a) to the maximum.

the welding stops. Do not over tighten as this will cause the power source to overheat.
To change the rollers, do the following:
- Loosen the knob (a) to the maximum and lower it.
- Unlock the rollers by removing the retaining screws (b)
- Fit the appropriate drive rollers for your application and retighten the retaining screws.
The rollers supplied are double groove rollers :
- steel Ø 0.8/1.0
