(the middle display shows the diameter of the cable: e.g. 35mm²)
e.g.: 12 = complete length of all cables 12m (maximum 40m)
Note: The torch type and the cable length must be set exactly, otherwise the machine is not welding
correctly.
To store the new settings press the wire-feed-in control key (right down)
Job load or store (MC 3)
It is possible to store 100 user defined jobs in the control box.
After a short tip on the control key ‘JOB LOAD’ the Job menu will be open.
The left display shows ‚Job’.
The middle display shows the status of the memory cell.
These are:
- free > memory cell free
- used > memory used
- == > Data already load into the MC unit
The right display shows the job number.
After the job menu is open, it is possible to select the job number by rotating the middle knob.
Now there is the possibility to load a stored job by pressing the control key ‘LOAD’, or to store the actual
settings by pressing the control key ‘STORE’ (in the middle display the symbol == appears).
To overwrite a used memory cell, press the ‘STORE’ key for more then 1 second.
Deleting jobs / reset to factory settings (MC 3)
The control unit has 2 possibilities:
1. to delete all user jobs, display ‘rES 1 – Job’ or
2. to reset all values to factory settings, display ‘rES 2 – ALL’.
Press the key Fx until ‘EC 1’ appears in the display.
Now tip 3 times on key Fx until ‘rES 1 – Job’ in the display appears.
With the middle control knob you can change between ‘rES 1 – Job’ or ‘rES 2 – ALL’.
Press the key ‘Gas test’ until the word ‘clr’ disappears in the right display.
The reset is finished.
Note: After the function reset ALL it is necessary to check all parameters of the unit, whether the
parameters have the right values !
Gas test (MC 3-5)
To open the gas valve, press the control key ‘gas test’ for more then 1 second. The gas valve is now
open for 20 seconds. After this time the gas valve closes automatically. To close the gas valve earlier,
press the control key again.
Wire feed in
In normal operation (not Job mode!) the wire-feed-in function will be activated by pressing the control
key ‘wire-feed’. The motor is running as long as the key is pressed. The speed can be adjusted by the
left rotating knob. Normally the speed is 5/min.

The following functions can be adjusted by the potentiometer:
- Choc: correction of the welding choke
- Hand: manual adjustment of the wire speed (Hand mode)
- Auto: Correction of the wire feed speed (automatic mode)
- StS: start speed
- bUb: burn back correction
- PrG: pre gas time
- PoG: post gas time
- SPt: spot time
