INSERTING THE ELECTRODES INTO THE WELDING HANDPIECE:
PLEASE ALWAYS CHECK THAT THE MACHINE IS SWITCHED OFF, PRIOR TO EXCHANGING THE
ELECTRODES. THIS PREVENTS UNCONTROLLED TRIGGERING OF THE WELDING PROCESS.
(Fig. 3)
(Fig. 4)
Lightly rotate the nozzle (10) back and forth and in doing
so, pull it off of the handpiece (13). It is only pushed-on, not
screwed in place.
Release the threaded electrode connection (12), insert a
well sharpened tungsten electrode (11) and tighten up
(hand-tight – do not use a tool to tighten).
Now replace the nozzle.
The electrode must protrude approx. 4 - 6mm out of the
nozzle (Fig. 4).
ONLY USE THORIUM OXIDE FREE ORIGINAL ELECTRODES
Subsequently insert the connector of the handpiece as
straight as possible into the socket (Fig. 27, p. 7) on the
front of the M280 and fasten in place by tightening the
coupling nut hand-tight in a clockwise direction. Insert the
connecting cable used into the socket (28) on the front side
of the housing.
4.6 CONNECT POWER SUPPLY:
Insert the power cable with the mains connector into the
corresponding socket (2) on the rear of the housing and
insert the mains plug into a suitable socket with the correct
mains voltage.
CAUTION!
AS SOON AS THE MASTER MAINS SWITCH ON YOUR
„M280“ IS SWITCHED ON, THE VOLTAGE IS APPLIED
TO THE CONNECTED CONTACT CLAMPS OR CABLES.
IT IS TO BE ENSURED THAT THESE PARTS ARE NOT
ALLOWED
TO
COME
INTO
CONTACT
WITH
ELECTRICALLY CONDUCTIVE OR EARTHED PARTS,
SUCH AS THE HOUSING, ETC. IN DOING SO, THERE IS
NO RISK FOR THE OPERATOR, WITH THE EXCEPTION
OF POSSIBLE CIRCUMSTANCES ARISING FROM
OPERATING ERROR.
