INSTALLATION/SETUP 3-4 Manual 0-5423
WARNING
DO NOT TOUCH the electrode wire while it is
being fed through the system. The electrode
wire will be at welding voltage potential.
1. Power Indicator
The green power indicator will be illuminated when the
welder is turned ON and indicates the presence of power.
2. Fault Indicator
The yellow fault indicator will be illuminated when any of the
faults are detected. ALL Faults will illuminate the indicator
3. Weld Process Selection Button
TIG
Process
MIG
STICK
Press and release this button to change the selected weld pro-
cess mode from MIG to LIFT TIG to STICK. The weld process will
change to the next process in the sequence each time the button
is pressed and released. The red indicators next to the button
will illuminate to identify MIG or LIFT TIG or STICK process mode.
WARNING
When the Power light is lit, the machine is
connected to the Mains supply voltage and
the internal electrical components are at
Mains voltage potential.
4. 2T - 4T Trigger Latch Button
Trigger
2T Normal
4T Latch
Press and release the button to change the selected operat-
ing mode of the trigger. The selected mode can be either “2T”
(unlatched) or “4T” (latched) operation. The red indicator next to
the button will illuminate to identify which mode is selected (2T
or 4T). In the 4T mode once the weld has been started you can
release the trigger and continue welding until the trigger is acti-
vated again or the welding arc is broken to stop the welding arc.
5. Advanced Features Button
Advanced
Features
Press and release the Advanced Features button to enter or exit
from the advanced programming mode. To exit, simply press
and release the button again. Any changes made are saved. The
advanced programming menu items are described in detail for
each welding mode in Section 3.07.
Advanced
Features
Gas Purge.
In addition, the Advanced Features Button is used
to initiate a 30 second gas line purge function to fill the gas line
with the shielding gas from the connected gas cylinder. To start
the gas purge function, simply press and hold the button for
approximately two (2) seconds. Once the Gas purge function has
started, a countdown timer will show in the left alpha-numeric
display indicating the number of seconds remaining before the
purge will be automatically terminated. You can stop the Gas
purge any time during the 30 seconds by quickly pressing and
releasing the button again.
6. Left Knob: Amperage Control (Wirespeed)
WIRESPEED
A
Left Knob
The amperage control knob adjusts the amount of welding cur-
rent delivered by the power source. In STICK and LIFT TIG modes,
the amperage control knob directly adjusts the power inverter
to deliver the desired level of output current. In MIG mode, the
amperage knob adjusts the speed of the wire feed motor (which
in turn adjusts the output current by varying the amount of MIG
wire delivered to the welding arc). The optimum wire speed re-
quired is dependent on the type of welding application. The setup
chart on the inside of the wire feed compartment door provides a
brief summary of the required output settings for a basic range of
MIG welding applications. The value may also be adjusted while
a weld is in progress – if this occurs, the left display will briefly
switch to show the adjusted value as the knob is turned, and will
automatically revert back to showing the weld current measure-
ments when the knob is not being turned.
