Spark-gap adjustment
This machine has a starting system of high effectiveness, which
uses an air spark-gap (located on the front side of the machine).
This component is adjusted at the factory as it is shown on the
opposite side. In case of necessity, adjust the distance between
the electrode tungstene and the fixed part with a 3 mm drill.
In case of a problem
Once you are ready to welding and your machine does not produce the current, please study carefully
the possible solutions
A - 2 signals are switched on: to wait the end of the cooling time. After this, it might be caused by the
voltage is no within 230 V +/- 15 %. Your machine is auto protected, particularly if it works with power
generator.
B - Local supply circuit signal is switched on : to check the accessories connections, if not, return your
machine to After Sales Service for reparations.
If, when you put your hand on the steel case, you feel tingling while the machine is on it means that you
have earthed the device incorrectly: check extention cable, plug and installation earthing.
General advice
•
Select a clean place, sheltered from the bad weather and on the even surface.
•
Place the machine not less than one meter from the part to be welded in order to reduce the
perturbation risk.
•
Do not underestimate the machine weight, do not carry it over the people or things and do not
drop it or put it abruptly.
•
Protect yourself using a filter glass and plain glass helmet, the plain glass has to be fixed against the
external side which is exposed to welding, it protects the filter glass from spatters. The arc welding
is dangerous for a user and its environment.
•
Wear protective clothing (overalls, jeans).
•
Use some welder gloves and a fire -proof apron
•
Remove the electrode from the electrode-holder when you do not use it.
•
Clean regularly your device with an air gun after power off and disconnect the main cable. Do not
use the device in order to thaw the canalisations.
