there is a high electrical risk, thereby providing maximum op-
erator safety.

 

- Arc Force to select the best dynamic characteristics of the 

welding arc (only adjustable with the control panel).

 

- Hot Start to improve ignition with particularly difficult electrodes 

(only adjustable with the control panel).

 

- Anti-sticking function to avoid the electrodes sticking.

  Usage limits (IEC 60974-1)

The use of a welder is typically discontinuous, in that it is made up 
of effective work periods (welding) and rest periods (for the posi-
tioning of parts, the replacement of wire and underflushing opera-
tions etc. This welder is dimensioned to supply a I

 max nominal 

current in complete safety for a period of work of X% of the total us-
age time. The regulations in force establish the total usage time to 
be 10 minutes. The work cycle is considered to be X% of this period 
of time. If the permitted work cycle time is exceeded, an overheat 
cut-off occurs to protect the components around the welder from 
dangerous overheating. Activation of thermal protection is signaled 
by “t° C” flashing on control panel display (for further information 
see the control panel manual). After several minutes the overheat 
cut-off rearms automatically and the welder is ready for use again.

  Technical data

The general technical data of the system are summarized in ta-
ble 1.

  How to lift up the welding power source

The weld welding power source has a strong handle all in one 
with the frame, used for transporting the welding power source 
manually only.

NOTE: These hoisting and transportation devices conform to Eu-
ropean standards. Do not use other hoisting and transportation 
systems.

  Open the packaging

Upon receiving the system:

• 

Remove the welding generator and all relevant accessories-
components from their packaging.

• 

Check that the weld welding power source is in good condition, 
if not report any problems immediately to the seller-distributor.

• 

Make sure all ventilation grilles are open and that no foreign bod-
ies are blocking the air circulation.

  Serial number

The welding power source’s serial number is shown on the unit’s 
data plate.
The serial number provides the key to tracing the production lot 
applicable to the product. The serial number may be essential with 
ordering spare parts or planning maintenance.

 Installation

The installation site for the system must be carefully chosen in or-
der to ensure its satisfactory and safe use. The user is responsi-
ble for the installation and use of the system in accordance with 
the producer’s instructions contained in this manual. Before install-
ing the system the user must take into consideration the potential 
electromagnetic problems in the work area. In particular, we sug-
gest that you should avoid installing the system close to:

• 

Signalling, control and telephone cables.

• 

Radio and television transmitters and receivers.

• 

Computers and control and measurement instruments.

• 

Security and protection instruments.

Persons fitted with pace-makers, hearing aids and similar equip-
ment must consult their doctor before going near a welding pow-
er source in operation. The environment in which the equipment 
is installed must be suitable for the casing’s protection level. This 
system is cooled by means of the forced circulation of air, and
