INSTALLATION SET UP FOR MMA (STICK) WELDING WITH MMA-TIG160/200PFC
Please install the machine strictly according to the following steps.
The protection class of this machine is IP21, so avoid using it in rain.
Connection of Input Cables
Primary input cable is supplied with this welding equipment. Connect the primary input cable with power
supply of required input voltage. Refer to data plate on machine for Input voltage, IMAX and IEFF.
(1) Turn the power source on and select the MMA function with the TIG/MMA selector switch.
(2) Connection of Output Cables: Various electrodes require a different polarity for optimum results refer
to the electrode manufacturers information for the correct polarity. Most GP electrodes are Electrode
connected to output socket, Earth Connected to the output socket
(3) Set the welding current relevant to the electrode type and size being used as recommended by the
electrode manufacturer.
(4) Place the electrode into the electrode holder and clamp tight
(5) Strike the electrode on the work to create the arc and hold the electrode steady to maintain the arc
(6) Hold the electrode slightly above the work piece to maintain the arc while travelling at an even speed
to create and even weld deposition
(7) To finish the weld, break the arc by quickly snapping the electrode away from the work piece.
(8) Wait for the weld to cool and carefully chip away the slag to reveal the weld metal underneath.
(2) Connect earth
lead
to
(1) Set TIG/MMA selector
switch to MMA
(2) Connect the electrode
lead to
(3) Set the welding current using the amperage
control dial.
(6) Hold the electrode slightly above the work
maintaining the arc while travelling at an even
speed.
(4) Place the electrode into the electrode holder
and clamp tight.
(7) To finish the weld, break the arc by quickly
snapping the electrode away from the work
piece.
(5) Strike the electrode against the workpiece to
create and arc and hold the electrode steady to
maintain the arc.
(8) Wait for the weld to cool and carefully chip
away the slag to reveal the weld metal below.
