Welding speed
Set the welding speed by the potentiometer on the front panel. The motor can be
switched on and off by the switch near the potentiometer.
Welding pressure
Engage and position the welding machine onto the material to be welded.
Pull the toggle lever without engaging the nozzle. By rotating the adjustment
screw the drive/pressure rollers will lightly touch the material to be welded, in
this way you will define the point zero N of pressure. Open the toggle lever. Set
the desired pressure by rotating the adjustment screw, to every single step of rota-
tion you will set 80N of pressure on seam.
If the maximum welding pressure (1000 N) is exceeded, mechanical
damages may occur.
