MIG welding was developed to help meet production demands of
the war and post war economy which is an arc welding process in
which a continuous solid wire electrode is fed through a MIG welding
gun and into the weld pool, joining the two base materials together.
A shielding gas is also sent through the MIG welding gun and
protects the weld pool from contamination which also
enhances the arc.
Connect the MIG torch leads as detailed on page 30. Work return lead to

“
ON
”
the machine
is started with the control panel lighting up and the cooling fans
will initially start running.
Open the gas valve of the cylinder and adjust the
gas regulator to obtain the desired flow rate.
Depending on your exact MIG welding
requirements you can follow the instructions
below to obtain your optimum setup.
Standard Welding Mode:
Once the machine has been setup for MIG (as above
along with page 30) you will be in a position to setup
the control panel for your MIG welding task.
The control panel image left is an example of the
machine being set up for standard MIG and the
following few pages will explain the setup steps
of operation.
