5 Handle operating elements
PP
The required contact pressure is pre-set via the knurled screw at the clamping
cap or is readjusted during the welding process.
5 Handle operating elements
5.1 Trigger function
1
Press the trigger on the handle and keep it pressed = welding is started.
2
Release the trigger = welding is stopped.
5.2 Potentiometer control (optional)
The optional potentiometer allows you to set or finely adjust various control
functions (e.g. wire feed rate) at the handle. For the version equipped with
remote control in the handle plate, the white/green/brown control leads must
be connected to those of the potentiometer at the feed case.
6 Operation
1
Open the shielding gas cylinder.
2
Switch on the power supply.
3
Set the welding parameters.
4
Start welding.
NOTE
• As the MIG/MAG welding torches are integrated into a welding system,
the operating instructions of the welding components, such as the
welding power supply, must be observed during operation.
NOTE
• The resistance values of both potentiometers must be absolutely identical.
• Use and function of the potentiometer control in question depend on the
power supply used.
NOTE
• Hose assemblies containing PVC hoses will start leaking if the return
coolant temperature is exceeded. Make sure not to exceed a return
coolant temperature of 60°C.
