The welding current must be regulated in accordance with the
diameter of the electrode and the thickness of the steel being
used.
This will vary with the type of electrodes and material you are
using. Below is a guide suggesting suitable currents & thicknesses
for welding steel.
Electrode
Diameter
Welding Current Steel Thickness
2mm
30 - 60A
1.5 - 2mm
2.5mm
50 - 80A
3 - 5mm
3.2mm
90 - 120A
4 - 6mm
Welding Current
The welding current should be set according to the application and
material being welded,
1. The welding current can be
increased or decreased by
turning the current control
dial. The reading will on the
digital display will change
accordingly.
ON/Off Switch
The on/off switch is located on the rear of the welder.
1. Press the on/off switch into
the on position ‘I’ to switch
the unit on.
2. To switch the unit off, press the switch to the ‘0’ position.
Note:
Check the rating of the circuit breaker on the supply
and other appliances connected to the circuit. The welder is a
high powered device and it is recommended that it is the only
appliance on the circuit to ensure it has enough power to operate.
Note:
If a 12A circuit is available, it is recommended that the
welder be connected to this.
WARNING!
DO NOT LEAVE THE SWITCH IN THE
ON POSITION WHEN THE UNIT IS NOT IN USE AS
THIS POSES THE RISK OF ELECTROCUTION OR
ACCIDENTS HAPPENING FOR THE NEXT USER.
Power LED Light
1. The ON LED illuminates
when the power cord is
connected to a live mains
outlet and the on/off switch
is in the on position.
Note:
The cooling fan will
operate when the unit is
switched on.
