3.1 START-UP. PRELIMINARY OPERATIONS.
In principle, the system must be connected as indicated in the previous chapter and before starting the
system up definitely, the following steps must be taken:
1)- Make sure the mains voltage is the same as that preselected in the machine.
2)- Connect supply cable K to the relevant three-phase outlet.
3)- Check that the gas bottle is held correctly by the bottle-holder system. Above all check that the safety
chain is perfectly fastened.
4)- Install the pressure-reducing valve F and connect gas hose E checking that there are no leakages,
throughout the whole circuit.
5)- Fit the relative adapter onto the wire reel and fit this assembly into the wire reel support axle. Please
carefully read the wire-feed unit instructions manual.
6)- Depending on the wire diameter, fit the groove of the correct driving roller.
7)- Fit the wire into the driving system. Do not force the wire pressure handle, as if this is too tight, the motor
remains on overload and does not reach the maximum speed, and if the handle is too slack, the wire could
slip. Once the wire has been fitted, we can then hook up the G torch.
3.2. OPERATION CONTROLS OF THE POWER SOURCE.
MAIN OPERATION CONTROLS OF GALA SYNERGIC 5000

N- General ON/OFF switch.
With this switch we can start up the power source and the wire-feed unit. The switch will remain
illuminated in “ON” position.
P- Controls and displays of synergic control.
V- Scale switch.
This enables the welding power range to be selected; we can select three power ranges, A, B and C in the
GALA SYNERGIC 5000 equipment.
U- Incremental tap charger.
This enables the correct welding power to be selected within the chosen range. It has 10 selection levels,
which will permit the best adjustment for each specific job.
