5 Handle operating elements
The required contact pressure is pre-set via the knurled screw at the clamping cap or is
readjusted during the welding process.
5 Handle operating elements
5.1 Trigger function
1
Press the trigger on the handle and keep it pressed = welding is started.
2
Release the trigger = welding is stopped.
5.2 Potentiometer control (optional)
The optional potentiometer allows you to set or finely adjust various control functions (e.g. wire
feed rate) at the handle. For the version equipped with remote control in the handle plate, the
white/green/brown control leads must be connected to those of the potentiometer at
the feed case.
6 Operation
1
Open the shielding gas cylinder.
2
Switch on the power supply.
3
Set the welding parameters.
4
Start welding.
NOTICE
• As the MIG/MAG welding torches are integrated into a welding system, the operating
instructions of the welding components, such as the welding power supply, must be
observed during operation.
NOTICE
• The resistance values of both potentiometers must be absolutely identical.
• Use and function of the potentiometer control in question depend on the power
supply used.
NOTICE
• Hose assemblies containing PVC hoses will start leaking if the return coolant temperature
is exceeded. Make sure not to exceed a return coolant temperature of 60°C.
