2SAFETY
Users of ESAB automatic welding machines have ultimate responsibility for ensuring that anyone who
works on or near the equipment observes all the relevant safety precautions.
The following recommendations should be observed in addition to the standard regulations that apply
to the work place.
All work must be carried out according to the specified instructions by personnel who are thoroughly
familiar with the operation of the welding machine.
Incorrect or unintentional operation of the equipment may lead to a hazardous situation which can
result in injury to the operator and damage to the equipment.
1.Anyone who uses the automatic welding machine must be familiar with:
Sits operation
Sthe location of emergency stops
Sits function
Srelevant safety precautions
2.The operator must ensure that:
Sno unauthorized person is stationed within the working area of the machine when it is started
up.
Sthat no--one is in a hazardous position when the carriage or slide mechanisms are operated.
3.The work place must:
Sbe clear of mechanical components, tools, or other obstructions that could prevent the oper-
ator from moving freely within the working area.
Sbe organized so that there is free access to the emergency stop.
4.Personal safety equipment
SAlways wear recommended personal safety equipment, such as safety glasses, flame--proof
clothing, safety gloves.
SDo not wear loose--fitting items, such as scarves, bracelets, etc., which could become
trapped.
5.General precautions
Live electrical components are normally shielded from accidental contact.
SMake sure the return cable is connected securely.
SWork on high voltage components may only be carried out by a qualified electrician.
SAppropriate fire extinguishing equipment must be clearly marked and close at hand.
SLubrication and maintenance must not be carried out on the equipment during its operation.

WARNING
ARC WELDING AND CUTTING CAN BE INJURIOUS TO YOURSELF AND OTHERS. TAKE PRECAUTIONS WHEN WELDING. ASK FOR YOUR EMPLOYER’S SAFETY PRACTICES WHICH SHOULD BE
BASED ON MANUFACTURERS’ HAZARD DATA.
ELECTRIC SHOCK -- Can kill
SInstall and earth the welding unit in accordance with applicable standards.
SDo not touch live electrical parts or electrodes with bare skin, wet gloves or wet clothing.
SInsulate yourself from earth and the workpiece.
SEnsure your working stance is safe.
FUMES AND GASES -- Can be dangerous to health
SKeep your head out of the fumes.
SUse ventilation, extraction at the arc, or both, to keep fumes and gases from your breathing zone and
the general area.
ARC RAYS -- Can injure eyes and burn skin.
SProtect your eyes and body. Use the correct welding screen and filter lens and wear protective
clothing.
SProtect bystanders with suitable screens or curtains.
FIRE HAZARD
SSparks (spatter) can cause fire. Make sure therefore that there are no inflammable materials nearby.
NOISE -- Excessive noise can damage hearing
SProtect your ears. Use ear defenders or other hearing protection.
SWarn bystanders of the risk.
MALFUNCTION -- Call for expert assistance in the event of malfunction.
READ AND UNDERSTAND THE INSTRUCTION MANUAL BEFORE INSTALLING OR OPERATING.
PROTECT YOURSELF AND OTHERS!
3INTRODUCTION
3.1General
All the automatic welding machines included in this instruction manual are designed
for SAW and MIG/MAG welding of butt and fillet joints.
ESAB’s welding heads are of the A2 S type and are intended for use in combination
with A2--A6 Process Controller and ESAB’s welding power sources LAF and TAF.
The welding head can be positioned horizontally and vertically with the linear slides.
The angular position is adjusted with the angular slide.
3.2Definitions
SAW weldingThe weld bead is protected by a cover of flux during the
welding.
SAW Light dutyPermits welding with lower current load and thinner wire.
MIG/MAG weldingThe weld bead is protected by shielding gas during wel-
ding.
Tandem weldingWelding with two welding heads.
Twinarc weldin gWelding with two wires in the same welding head.

3.4Welding method
Submerged arc welding (SAW)
For submerged arc welding, the A2 SF welding head is always to be used.
SSubmerged arc Light duty
Submerged arc light duty, with a 20 mm connector, which permits a load of up
to 800 A (100%).
This version can be equipped with feed rollers for single or twin wire welding
(twin--arc). A special knurled feed roller is available for flux--cored wire, which
guarantees even wire feed without the risk of deformation due to high feed pressure.
MIG/MAG welding
For MIG/MAG welding the A2 SG welding head is always used, permitting a max.
load of 600 A. The welding head is water--cooled, with the cooling water supplied by
hoses from connections intended for the purpose.
