7. Welding operation

WMD078TE0PAA07

7.1.1 Operation flow

1) Prior to operation

(1) Wear protective gears

Refer to the above-described “Warning” and “Caution” and wear neces

sary protective gears.

(2) Check connections

Check and confirm all connections of input power, ground wire, base

metal, wire feeder, other associated equipment and gas.

(3) Power ON

•

Turn on power at the power distribution box.

•

Turn on power at the welding power source.

①

All LEDs and LCDs on the operation
panel is lit for about 0.5 second.

Then they are turned off
sequentially.

②

Display1) and version number
(on Display2) of the following
items are indicated on the Dis-
plays1&2.

•

Main board CPU1

•

Main board CPU2

•

Operation board

③

Then, the welding power source

goes into the standby state.

(4) Specify Material/Wire dia./

Gas, Pulse

Specify them on the operation panel. (For details, see section “

7.1.2

Specifying welding conditions (material/wire diameter/gas and

pulse)

” on page

63.)

(5) Specify control process

Specify them on the operation panel. (For details, see section “

7.1.3

Specifying CONTROL process

” on page

66.

(6) Pre-operation check

Check GAS CHECK function, wire extension length, INCHING function

and shield gas. (Details are described below.)

Check ”GAS CHECK” function

(Operable only in the standby state)

•

Press the GAS CHECK button on the operation panel to start.

•

LED lights.

•

LCD on the operation panel shows the countdown of seconds

until the gas check automatically ends (in 60 seconds).

•

To force-quit the gas check operation, press the GAS CHECK button once

again. (At that time, LED and gas go out).

•

If welding operation is started while LED is ON, the gas check function

performs a force-quit (At that time, gas flows continuously.)
