 Protection class 

The IP grade determines the extent to which the device is resistant to contamination and moisture. IP21 
means that the device is suitable for indoor use and not suitable for use in the rain or extensive moisture 
conditions. 

The manufacturer is not liable for damage caused by improper use of the device. 

6.

 

Before first use 

6.1 MMA process 

Welding cables should be connected to the sockets (3) and (6) on the device front so that the electrode 
holder is connected to the proper polarity. The polarity of the welding cable connection depends on the 
type  of  electrode  used  and  is  given  on  electrode  packaging.  The  ground  clamp  should  be  securely 
attached to the welded material. Connect the device's plug to a 230V 50Hz mains socket. 

6.2

 

TIG process 

Welding torch is connected to negative polarity connector ( - ) torch control connector properly plugged 
into device, gas supply connected. Shield gas bottle connected to the device. Ground clamp connected 
to working material and plugged into positive polarity connector ( + ).

Troubleshooting  

Symptoms 

Remedy 

Control panel is doesn’t light up, fan 
not working, no output voltage 

1.

 

Check if the device is ON 

2.

 

Check power supply connection 

3.

 

Remove  outer  case  to  check  if  all  plugs  are  connected  inside  the 
device. 

Control  panel  lights  up,  fan  not 
working, no output voltage 

1.

 

See  if  voltage  isn’t  too  high.  Connect  the  device  to  230V  power 
supply, restart the device.  

2.

 

Power  supply  voltage  not  stable  results  in  activating  overload 
protection. Turn the device OFF wait 2 

– 3 minutes before next use 

od the device. 

3.

 

Accidental  turning  the  device  on  and  then  off  again  resulting  in 
activation  overload  protection.  Turn  the  device  OFF  wait  2 

–  3 

minutes before next use od the device. 

4.

 

Other multifunction. Contact service centre. 

Control panel lights up, fan working, 
problem with arc ignition 

1.

 

Check TIG torch, replace used parts 

Control panel lights up, fan working, 
O.C  led 

indicator  lights  up,  ‘Err” 

prompt indicated 

1.

 

Device is overheating. Wait few minutes until device restart.  

Low  quality  of  welding  joint  when 
MMA welding. Electrode sticking 

1.

 

Check polarity of connected cables 

2.

 

Check if the coated electrode is dry or wet. If wet change the electrode. 

3.

 

 Device  is  power  supplied  from  a  generator  or  using  a  too  long 
extension cord. Connect directly to 230V power supply 

Low  quality  of  welding  joint  when 
welding TIG process 

1.

 

Change the torch parts if used.  

2.

 

Check if the gas supply is correct 

3.

 

Check gas regulator 

 

8.  Transporting and storage  

 

Always store the devices in a dry, ventilated place, out of reach of children and 
bystanders. Protect the device against vibrations and shocks during transport. 
 

9.  Recycling 

 
The packaging and device materials are suitable for recycling use. Disposal of the packaging and 
device must be done in accordance with local regulations. The packaging materials should be 
protected against children as they are potential source of danger.
