4.  RATINGS PLATE

 

  Detailed technical data relative to the performance of the welding set is located on the back panel.

  

NOTE:

 The rating plate detailed in fig 1 is an example only intended to assist with the explanations of the symbols. To determine the  

 

  correct technical values of the welding set refer to the data plate on your machine and the specification table above.

  

1:

 The relevant standard.

  

2:

 Inverter-transformer-rectifier symbols.

  

3:

 Symbol indicates welding with a continuous flow of welding wire.

WARNING!

 Disconnect from mains power supply before any assembly.

5.1. 

  

FITTING A REEL OF WIRE

5.1.1. 

  

Release the catch (fig 2) and lift up the feed compartment cover (fig 3).

5.1.2. 

 

Unscrew and remove the star knob, spring and retaining disc (fig 3) and place to one side.

5.1.3. 

 

Slide the wire reel onto the reel holder (fig 4).

5.1.4. 

 

Reattach the star knob, spring and retaining disc and fully tighten (fig 4).

 

8

 

DO NOT

 over tighten.

5.1.5. 

 

Ensure that the wire is spooling off from the bottom of the wire reel in the direction of the wire drive unit (fig 4).

5.2.    

FEEDING THE WIRE THROUGH THE TORCH

 

‰

  

WARNING!

 Ensure that the wire feed roller, the wire guide hose and the contact tip of the torch correspond to the diameter of  the  

  wire used and are fitted correctly.

5.2.1. 

  

To access the drive mechanism pull the pressure adjustment knob (fig 4) towards you and allow to it to rotate downwards.

5.2.2. 

  

Rotate the pressure roller housing up towards the right (fig 5).

5.2.3. 

  

Ensure that the required feed groove (Ø0.6mm and Ø0.8mm wire) is in line with the wire path. See section 5.4 on how to reverse or   

 

change the roller.

5.2.4. 

  

Release the wire from the reel and trim off any bent portion and remove any burrs 

 

‰

  

WARNING!

 Prevent the wire from uncoiling by keeping the wire under tension at all times.

5.2.5. 

  

Straighten the end of wire and gently push it through the flexible sheath (fig 5), over the feed roller groove and then into the torch  

 

 

cable liner.
