5.0 Installation
Read entire installation section before starting installation.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
• ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.
• Only qualifi ed personnel should perform this installation.
• Only personnel that have read and understood the Operating
Manual should install and operate this equipment.
• Machine must be grounded per any national, local or other
applicable electrical regulations.
• The power switch is to be in the OFF position when installing
work cable and electrode cable and when connecting other
equipment.
5.1 Unpacking the Machine
Carefully remove the machine from the packaging, we recommend
you retain the packaging until the machine has been fully installed
and tested incase it has been damaged in transit and has to be
returned to the re-seller.
5.2 Location
Be sure to locate the welder according to the following guidelines:
In areas, free from moisture and dust.
Ambient temperature between 0-40
0
C.
In areas free from oil, steam and corrosive gases.
In areas not subjected to abnormal vibration or shock.
In areas not exposed to direct sunlight or rain.
Place at a distance of 12” (300 mm) or more from walls or similar
that could restrict natural airfl ow for cooling.
5.3 Input and grounding connection
WARNING
Before starting the installation, check that your power supply
is adequate for the voltage, amperage, phase, and frequency
specifi ed on the Machine nameplate.
Operate the welding power source from a single-phase 50/60 Hz,
AC power supply. The input voltage must match one of the electrical
input voltages shown on the input data label on the unit nameplate.
The XTS163 machine should only be used on 230v supply. Refer to
the specifi cations table for voltage tolerances. The XTS 163 DV will
automatically switch between 110 or 230V input without adjustment
of the machine.
Have a qualifi ed electrician connect the input plug. For long runs
over 30m , larger copper wires should be used. The green/yellow
wire in the input cable connects to the frame of the machine. This
ensures proper grounding of the machine when the machine plug is
inserted into the receptacle.
5.4 Output Polarity Connections
Electrode polarity
MMA electrodes are generally connected to the ‘+’ terminal and the
work return 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.
4.0 Description of Controls
1) ON OFF Switch for switching on or off the mains supply to the
machine. Note the output of the machine is permanently on unless
the on/off switch is in the off position.
2) Power light This indicates mains power is applied to the machine
and that the machine is currently switched on when the light is
illuminated.
3) Fault light This indicates a fault or over temperature condition
with the machine refer to the fault fi nding section for further
information.
4) Digital Amperage display, displays the preset and actual welding
currents.
5) Output power control knob for adjustment of the power output of
the machine in LIFT-TIG or MMA mode.
6) Welding mode selector for MMA electrode type and Lift TIG.
7) Output power conn (Positive) this is the 35mm Dinse
connection socket for the connection of the positive welding lead.
8) Output power connection - (Negative) this is the 35mm Dinse
connection socket for the connection of the negative welding lead.
