INTRODUCTION
This manual was edited to give some indications on the operation of the welder and was thought to
offer information for its practical and secure use. Its purpose is not teach welding techniques. All
given suggestions are indicative and intended to be only guide lines.
To ensure that your welder is in good conditions, inspect it carefully when you remove it from its packing
having care to ascertain that the cabinet or the stocked accessories are not damaged.
Your welder is capable of daily activity of construction and reparation. Its simplicity and versatility and
its excelling welding characteristic are granted by the inverter technology. This welding inverter allows to
be finely set to obtain optimal arc characteristics with a reduced consumption of energy with respect to
the welders based on a traditional transformer.
Respect the duty cycle of the welder making reference to the technical data label on the welder’s back.
Duty cycle is given as percentage on a 10 minute time. During this period of time the unit can be used
at a defined power regulation. Duty cycle exceeding may cause overheating or welder’s damage.
Welder’s basic specifications:
Power Voltage:
220/240V, 50/60Hz
Uo:
10÷25V MIG/MAG - 38V MMA/TIG
Current Output Range:
25÷170 MIG/MAG - 5÷170 MMA/TIG
Duty Cycle:
