ESAB FABRICATOR 211i
Manual 0-5450 4-7 INSTALLATION/SETUP
19. Burnback Control (located in wirefeed compartment)
The burnback control is used to adjust the amount of MIG wire that protrudes from the MIG gun after the completion of MIG welding
(commonly referred to as stick out). To decrease the burnback time (or lengthen the amount of wire protruding from the MIG gun at
the completing of welding), turn the burnback control knob anti clockwise. To increase the burnback time (or shorten the amount
of wire protruding from the torch at the completing of welding), turn the Burnback Control knob clockwise.
20. MIG Gun & Spool Gun Switch
The MIG Gun / Spool Gun switch is used to switch welding mode between MIG Gun functionality and Spool Gun functionality
21. Cooling Fan
When the Fabricator 211i is powered up, the fan turns on for approximately 3 seconds and turns off. At the time of welding, the
fan turns on when welding is started, and will stay on for 10 minutes after you stop welding. After the 10 minutes has elapsed,
the fan will turn off.
In STICK mode, the fan is on all the time.
The Fabricator 211i is designed with an intelligent fan control. It automatically switches the cooling fan off when it is not required.
This has two main advantages; (1) to minimize power consumption, and (2) to minimize the amount of contaminants such as dust
that are drawn into the power source.
Note that the fan will only operate when required for cooling purposes and will automatically switch off when not required.
4.02 Attaching The TWECO Fusion 220A MIG Gun
Fit the Fusion MIG gun to the power source by pushing the MIG gun connector into the MIG gun adapter and screwing the locking
screw clockwise to secure the MIG gun to the MIG gun adapter.
Connect the 8 pin plug by aligning the keyway then inserting the 8 pin plug into the 8 pin socket and rotate threaded collar fully
clockwise to lock the plug into position.
