Fitting Eye Bolts
Remove 12mm transport bolts and replace
with supplied eye bolts and fibre washers.
Centralise the internal nut as the eye bolt is
tightened. Use a bar through the centre of
the eye bolts to tighten firmly.
Fitting the Gas Cylinder
Place the gas cylinder on the tray at the
rear of the welder. Retain the cylinder with
the chain provided.
Fit the gas regulator to the cylinder. DO
NOT apply grease or oil to these joints.
Fit the end of the gas inlet hose from the
rear of the machine to the connector
supplied with the gas regulator, and secure
with the clamp also supplied.
Remote Wirefeeder
The remote wirefeeder is connected to
the Weldmatic Fabricator power source
via the composite cable interconnecting
lead. Check all connections are firmly made
to ensure good electrical contact, and to
prevent gas leaks.

Some ‘self-shielded’ flux cored consumable
wires are operated with the work piece
Positive and the consumable wire Negative.
Refer to the manufacturers data for the
particular consumable wire to be used.
To setup for this condition, connect the
‘WORK’ lead plug into the (+) output socket
on the Power Source, and the ‘WELDING’
lead from the wirefeeder into the (-) socket
on the Power Source, as in Figure 3.
