Preparations
1.
Plug the welding power-lead into the current socket, depending upon which type of
electrode is to be used, and latch it by turning it clockwise
2.
Plug the grounding cable into the current socket, depending on which type of electrode
is to be used, and latch it by turning it clockwise
3.
Plug in the mains plug
Selecting the pro-
cess
1.
Move the mains switch to the "I" position
2.
Select one of the following processes using the Process button:
When welding with rutile electrodes, manual metal arc welding with HotStart
is recommended.
When welding with basic electrodes, manual metal arc welding with SoftStart
is recommended.
When welding with cellulose electrodes, the manual metal arc welding pro-
cess with a Cel electrode must always be selected.
Adjusting weld-
ing current, ignit-

WARNING!
Operating the equipment incorrectly can cause serious injury and
damage. Do not use the functions described here until you have fully read and
understood the following documents:
-
These Operating Instructions
-
All the Operating Instructions for the system components, especially the
safety rules
WARNING!
An electric shock can be fatal. If the device is plugged into the mains
during installation, there is a high risk of very serious injury and damage. Only car-
ry out work on the device when:
-
The mains switch is in the "O" position
-
The device is unplugged from the mains
CAUTION!
Risk of injury and damage from electric shock. As soon as the mains
switch is in the "I" position, the rod electrode in the electrode holder is LIVE. Make
sure that the rod electrode does not touch any persons or electrically conductive
or earthed parts (e.g. housing, etc.)
