Connection and start-up
Mains connection
The machine must be connected to a suitable mains socket with
correct front fuse and protective earthing. It is important to select
a mains plug according to the selected performance (see menu for
selection of maximum duty cycle). After the mains plug has been
connected to the mains the machine is ready for use. Switch on
and off the machine by means of the breaker (1) on the rear of the
machine.

WARNING
When you activate the torch trigger, there is
voltage applied to the welding wire and electrode.
Connection of shielding gas
Connect the gas hose, which branches off from the back panel
of the welding machine (6), to a gas supply with pressure
regulator (2-6 bar during operation).
(Note: Some types of pressure regulators require an output
pressure higher than 2 bar to function optimally).
One gas cylinder can be mounted on the trolley.
Gas consumption
Depending on the welding task, joint type, gas type and weld
seam, the gas consumption will vary in ranges from 4-6 l/min at
low amperages (<25A) and up to 11 l/min at max. amperage.
Connection of electrode holder for MMA
The electrode holder and earth cable are connected to plus
tap (10) and minus tap (7). Observe the instructions from the
electrode supplier when selecting polarity.
Connection of welding cables
Connect the welding cables and the earth cable to the front
of the machine. Please note that the plug must be turned
45 degrees after insertion into the socket - otherwise the plug
can be damaged due to excessive contact resistance.
Always connect the TIG connection in the minus (-) socket (7),
and the earth cable in the plus (+) socket (10).
The control signals from the TIG torch are transformed to the
machine through the circular 7-pin plug (8). When the plug has
been assembled please secure it by turning the "circulator"
clockwise.
COATED ELECTRODES: Electrodes are marked with a polarity
on the packing. Connect the electrode holder in accordance
with this marking to the plus or minus sockets of the machine.

Important!
In order to avoid destruction of plugs
and cables, good electric contact
is required when connecting earth
cables and welding hoses to the
machine.
