 less then at the 

side of the central connection

, this provides that the wire 

will be hold correct in the wire-feed unit.
Press the button wire insert

 till the wire appears approx. 

20 mm out of the torchneck.
Screw in the contact tip corresponding to the wirediameter 

and cut off the sticked out wire end.

How to connect the gas cylinder

Put the gas cylinder

 3

 on the provided place at the back of the 

machine and protect against falling by fastening the chain

 35

.

Open the gas valve

 34

 several times to blow out possible dirt 

particles.
Connect the pressure reducer

 2

 at the gas cylinder

 3

. Con-

nect the gas hose

 31

 at the pressure reducer. Open the gas-

cylinder and adjust the gas flow at the set screw

 36

 of the 

pressure reducer while pressing the torch button. The quanti-

ty will be shown at the flowmeter

 32

. This should be approx. 

wire diameter x 10 l/min. The content of the cylinder is shown 

by the contentmanometer

 33

.

How to modify the machine for aluminium 

welding

Change the wire roll to a aluminium wire roll.
Change the steel-torch against an aluminiumtorch or resp. 

change the wire liner against a teflon liner.
Remove the capillary tube

 42

 at the central connection.

Cut the teflon liner close to the end of the wire-feeding roll and 

pull the brasstube over the teflon liner with the corresponding 

length for stabilising it.
Fasten the torch and thread in the wire electrode.

)

The art.no. of the parts depends on the torch and wire-

diameter. Please see at the torch spare list.
