4.0 Description of controls

1.  Digital display for amperage and Voltage 

(displayed real time)

2.  Fault light This light will illuminate when a fault or 

over temperature condition has occurred. If this 

light illuminates allow the machine to cool with 

the fan still running until it extinguished. If the 

light does not go off when the power source has 

cooled down then have the machine checked by a 

qualified engineer.

3.  Mains input light This light illuminates when the 

mains power is connected and the machine is 

switched on.

4.  On Off switch. The machine is switched off when 

the light (4)  is off and the fan is not running. 

5.  Coarse Voltage selector switch. This switch is used 

to select the require welding voltage each position 

of the switch represents approximately 4V. 

Do Not operate this switch while welding

6.  Fine Voltage selector switch. This switch is used to 

select the require welding voltage each position of 

the switch represents approximately 0.5V. 

Do Not operate this switch while welding

7.  Work return lead connection. This socket allows 

connection of the work return lead to the front of 

the machine. 

Note the XTM403S has 2 sockets for the work return 

lead please refer below

8.  Work return lead connection. High inductance 

connection, this should be used when in spray 

transfer mode to give a more stable arc. (Only 

fitted to XTM403S)

9.  Mains input connection Input connection for the 

pre-installed mains cable 

10.  Control circuit protection fuse.

11.  Gas cylinder retention chain to be used when a 

gas cylinder is mounted on the rear tray.

12.  Auxiliary output. 240V 3A auxiliary output for use 

with water cooler or small power tools.

13.  Protection fuse for the Auxiliary output

14.  Socket for the interconnection cable to link to the 

wire feeder.

15.  Welding power connection to connect to the inter 

connect cable.

16.  2T 4T, when in the 2T position the torch trigger 

will have a momentary operation ie the welding 

operation will start when the rigger is depressed 

and stop when it is released. In the 4T position a 

short press and release of the trigger will start the 

welding operation and a short press and release 

with stop the operation. The 4T mode is ideal for 

long welds as it reduces operator fatigue. 

17.  Gas purge button. Pressing this button allow gas 

to flow through the welding torch and so allow 

checking of the gas flow before starting the 

welding process.

18.  Wire inching button, allows the welding wire to 

be fed through the torch without engergising the 

welding power.

19.  Wire feed speed adjustment, controls the speed of 

wire feeding from 0.8 to 24 m/min. Increasing the 

wire feed speed also has the effect of increasing 

the welding current

20.  Location for control socket if machine is fitted with 

Push Pull torch

21.  Torch connector The Euro connector provided the 

external connection for the welding torch
