Welding SMAW Process
FILCORD i250, FILCORD i300
does not include the
electrode holder with lead necessary for SMAW welding,
but the one can be purchased separately.
Procedure of begin welding of SMAW process:
First turn the machine off.
Determine the electrode polarity for the electrode to be
used. Consult the electrode data for this information.
Depending on the polarity of using electrode, connect
the work lead and the electrode holder with lead to
output socket [3] or [4] and lock them. See the Table 1.

Connect the work lead to the welding piece with the
work clamp.
Install the proper electrode in the electrode holder.
Turn the welding machine on.
Set welding mode to SMAW.
Set the welding parameters.
The welding machine is now ready to weld.
By applying the principle of occupational health and
safety at welding, welding can be begun.

Welding GMAW, FCAW Process
FILCORD i250, FILCORD i300
can be used to welding
GMAW, FCAW-GS, FCAW-SS process.
NOTE:
Welding FCAW-SS process is possible in Manual
Mode only.
In
FILCORD i250, FILCORD i300

Preparation the Machine for Welding
GMAW and FCAW Process.
Procedure of welding in GMAW or FCAW process:
Determine the wire polarity for the wire to be used.
Consult the wire data for this information.
Connect output the gas-cooled gun to GMAW / FCAW
process to Euro Socket [1].
Depending on the using wire, connect the work lead
to output socket [3] or [4]. See the Table 2.

Install the proper wire.
Install the proper drive roll.
Make sure, if it is needed (GMAW, FCAW-GS
processes), that the gas shield has been connected.
Turn the machine on.
Push the Cold Inch Switch [12] to feed the wire through
the gun liner until the wire comes out of the threaded
end.
Install a proper contact tip.
Check gas flow with Gas Purge Switch [12] – GMAW
and FCAW processes.
Close the left side panel.
Set welding mode to GMAW
The welding machine is now ready to weld.
By applying the principle of occupational health and
safety at welding, welding can be begun.
