4. INSTALLATION
4.1 CONNECTION TO THE MAIN SUPPLY
This unit must be connected to a single-phase 230V - 50 Hz/60 Hz + ground with a tolerance of ±10%.
Main supply must be protected by fuses or circuit breaker according to the value I1eff written on the specifications of the
power source.
It is strongly suggested to use a differential protection for the operator’s safety.
4.2 CONNECTION TO EARTH
For the operator's protection, the power source must be correctly grounded (according to the International Protection
Norms).
It is absolutely necessary to set a good earth connection with the green/yellow wire of the power cable. This will avoid
discharges caused by accidental contacts with grounded pieces. If no earth connection has been set, a high risk of
electric shock through the chassis of the unit remains possible.
5. WELDING
5.1 MMA WELDING MODE (coated electrode)
- Make the necessary connections to mains and earth as described in “Installation”. Connect the earth and
electrode holder cables to welding plugs + (positive) and – (negative) according to electrode polarity. If
necessary, pay attention to electrode manufacturer instructions.
- Switch on the welding set on the ON/OFF switch.
- The overheating indicator lights during a second if no failure has been found.
- The Power ON indicator lights, indicating that machine is under voltage.
A - MMA welding process selection (coated electrode):
Select MMA on the MMA/ TIG key selector switch.
B - Welding current:
Adjust welding current with the current adjusting knob, according to the following table:
