MIG-160ERS
Depending on the electrode diameter, you determine the desired current range in which you will be
welding. You set the amperage on the front of the device with the welding control button, which you can
also read on the digital display. To know which area to select, refer to the information in the table below.
Stick electrode Ø mm
Ø1,6mm
Ø2,0mm
Ø2,5mm
Ø3,2mm

LIFT TIG mode
Press the button (3) to select the "LIFT TIG" mode:
In Lift TIG mode, it can be welded according to the TIG process with the optional TIG burner (not
included in the package).
In this mode, the corresponding welding current can only be set with the control knob (4).
Stainless steel welding
Note that it is essential to use clean gases (e.g., argon) when welding stainless steel. The setting of
the welding current can be adjusted in the same way as for steel welding.
Recommended types of shielding gas:
Steel: CO2, it is also possible to use mixtures, e.g., 18% argon and 82% CO2
Aluminium: argon
Aluminium welding tips:
Aluminium wire is softer and can be crushed or clogged on the way to the welding nozzle, so the
following information must be observed:
1. Replace the steel wire of the MIG torch with a Teflon insert of the appropriate diameter (wire
between the wire and the wall of the Teflon insert, approx. 0.5 mm)
2. Select a contact nozzle with a bore that is approx. 0.2 mm larger than the diameter of the welding
wire.
3. Use a suitable wire drive pulley and carefully tighten the drive tensioner. Over tightening can deform
the wire.
4. Only use pure ARGON for shielding gas.
5. See also the instructions for the Teflon spiral.
