WARNING :
The clamps and the gun of the unit are connected to the same current source. This means that when you use one of these
2 tools, there is also power on the second tool. The tool which is not used must therefore be placed on its stand on the
trolley (clamps stand located on the side of the trolley and gun stand located on the T-Shape balancer).
In case these instructions are not respected, severe damage can occur to the generator tools. Sparks and metal projections
can occur (DANGEROUS FOR THE USER).
5- PRECAUTIONS AND SERVICING
User training
Operators must have an appropriate qualification for the use of the machine in order to get the best of the unit and to make
satisfying work (e.g. : car-body repair training).
Preparation of the parts to assemble
It is essential to grind, clean and to accost the part to be welded.
In case of a protection application, first verify that it is conducting by testing a sample.
Single sided gun welding
Before repairing a vehicle, check that the car manufacturer authorizes the welding process you have chosen.
Use of the under fender arm
Considering the strong locking pressure of the clamp, the air compressed pressure should be lowered to 4 bars.
WARNING : a pressure higher than 5 bars can cause the destruction of the arms set and therefore metal projections that
might cause body damage to the operator.
Nuts circular joints
Inside the 2 tightening arms nuts (see description of the clamp), there are 2 circular joints which have to be replaced in
case of leaks or every 6 months. These 2 circular joints are necessary to avoid risks of cooling liquid leaks.
These joints have a diameter of d=25, flange=4. During replacement, it is advised to add copper grease on these joints to
ease insertion of the arms (copper grease reference : ref. 050440)
Replacement or adjustment of X-Clamp arms
:
When changing the arms, place the clamp on its stand, and proceed as follows :
-
Switch off the machine
-
Put the clamps above the cooling liquid level in the tank.
-
Take a recipient of about 1 litre to collect the water pouring from the arm.
-
Screw off the tightening screw of the arms nuts.
-
Take the arms off and collect the liquid in the arms.
-
Take the other arms, put some grease all around the arm’s extremity (use special “copper grease”).
-
Check the presence of the circular joint (washer D=25, flange of 4) and check its good state.
-
Put the arms back against mechanical stop. Adjust them so that both electrodes face each other. Then screw
both screws of the arms nuts (couple 15 Nm).
-
Check the level of cooling liquid.
-
Switch ON the machine
When you adjust the arms, proceed as follows :
To precisely adjust the arms clamps, it is necessary to close the clamps without the generator making a welding point. In
order to do this, press on the “Esc” key to enter the clamp adjustment mode. The message « CLAMPS ADJUSTMENT »
appears. By pressing the close button on the clamps, you can adjust the arms as no current is supplied by the generator. To
come back to normal mode, press the “Esc” key again.
WARNING : if the arms are not correctly tightened during the cooling liquid circulation, the arms can be ejected from their
housings and may create material or body damages.
