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:
13÷35V MIG/MAG - 65V MMA/TIG
Current Output Range:
20÷200 MIG/MAG - 5÷200 MMA/TIG
Duty Cycle:
35% 200A MIG/MAG - 35% 200A MMA/TIG
100% 140A MIG/MAG - 100% 120A MMA/TIG
Welding Wire Selection:
This welder can work with Aluminium wire 0,8÷1,2 thick, solid steel wire 0,6÷1,2 thick and stainless steel
wire 0,8÷1,2 thick (Gas Welding) and with flux core wire 0,8÷1,2 thick (No Gas Welding).
Feed Rolls:
grrove 0,6-0,8mm for wires 0,6÷0,8mm
groove 1,0-1,2mm for wires 1,0-1,2mm
Teflon feed rolls for Aluminium, groove 0,8-1,0-1,2mm
Gas Selection
According to the material to be welded and to the wire you are going to use select the protection gas.
The here below table can give you some useful indications:
MATERIAL TO WELD
GAS CYLINDER
WIRE
Mild steel
Argon + CO2 cylinder or
CO2 cylinder
Copper coated mild steel wire spool.
For no gas welding use flux-cored wire spool
Stainless steel
Argon cylinder
Stainless steel wire spool.
Aluminium
Argon cylinder
Aluminium wire spool
2.5 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
For your safety, before connecting the power source to the line, closely follow these instructions:
•
An adequate two-pole switch must be inserted before the main outlet; this switch must be equip-
ped with time-delay fuses;
•
The connection with ground must be made with a two-pole plug compatible with the above
mentioned socket;
•
When working in a confined space, the power source must be kept outside the welding area and
the ground cable should be fixed to the workpiece. Never work in a damp or wet area, in these
conditions.
•
Do not use damaged input or welding cables
•
The welding torch should never be pointed at the operator’s or at other persons’ body;
•
The power source must never be operated without its panels; this could cause serious injury to
the operator and could damage the equipment.
