Note: Check that drive rolls, and torch parts are correct for the 

wire size and type being used.

3.  The optimum idle roll pressure varies with type of wire, wire 

diameter, surface conditions, lubrication, and hardness. As a 

general rule, hard wires may require greater pressure, and soft, 

or aluminium wire, may require less pressure than the factory 

setting. The optimum idle roll setting can be determined as 

follows:

4.  Press end of gun against a solid object that is electrically 

isolated from the welder output and press the gun trigger for 

several seconds.

5.  If the wire “bird nests”, jams or breaks at the drive roll, the idle 

roll pressure is too great. Back the adjustment knob out 1/2 

turn, run new wire. If the only result was drive roll slippage, 

loosen the Hand nut on the central connector and pull the gun 

forward about 6” (15cm) away from the power source. There 

should be a slight waviness in the exposed wire. If there is not 

waviness, the pressure is too low. Tighten the adjustment knob 

1/4 turn, reinstall the gun cable and repeat the above steps.

1.  When triggering, the electrode and drive mechanism are 

electrically “LIVE” relative to work and ground and remain 

“LIVE” several seconds after the gun trigger is release

d.

WarnInG

When using an open arc process, it is necessary to use correct 

eye, head, and body protection.

2.  Position wire over joint. The end of the wire may be lightly 

touching the work.

3.  Lower welding helmet, operate gun trigger, and begin welding. 

Hold the gun so the contact tip to work distance is about 3/8” 

(10 mm).

4.  To stop welding, release the gun trigger and then pull the gun 

away from the work after the arc goes out.

5.  When no more welding is to be done, close valve on gas 

cylinder (if used), momentarily operate gun trigger to release 
gas pressure and turn off the machine.

NOTE These settings are guidelines only. Material and wire 

type, joint design, fit up, position, shielding gas, etc. affect 

settings. Produce test welds to be sure they comply to 

specifications.

Material thickness determines weld parameters.

1.  Convert Material Thickness to Amperage (A) (0.25mm= 1 Amp) 

3.2mm = 125 A

2.  Select Wire Size
Amperage Range  Wire Size
40 - 145 A 

 

0.8 mm

50 - 180 A 

 

1.0 mm

75 - 250 A 

 

1.2 mm

3.  Select Wire Speed (Amperage)

Wire Size 

 

Feed speed

0.8 mm 

 

0.05m/min per Amp

1.0 mm 

 

0.04m/min per Amp

1.2 mm 

 

0.025m/min per Amp

So based on 3.2 mm material thickness amperage should be 125A if 

using 1.0mm wire then the wire feed speed should be 
0.04 X 125= 5m/min
Wire speed (amperage) controls weld penetration
4.     

 

 Select Voltage. Voltage controls height and width of weld 

bead.
Low Voltage: wire stubs into work
High Voltage: arc is unstable (spatter)

Set voltage midway between high/low voltages.

And then fine tune accordingly

6.2 MMA/TIG  welding 

Output polarity Connections

Electrode polarity
MMA electrodes are generally connected to the ‘+’ terminal and the 

work lead to the ‘-‘terminal
But if in doubt consult the electrode manufacturer’s literature.
IF TIG welding the torch should always be connected to the ‘-’ 

terminal.

torch installation

MMA cable connections
Connect electrode lead to positive terminal on the front panel

TIG welding cable connection
Connect the TIG torch to the - terminal

Work return lead connection

MMA cable connections
Connect work lead to negative terminal
