Keep your head out of the fumes.
Use ventilation, extraction at the arc, or both, to take fumes and gases away from your breathing zone
and the general area.
ARC RAYS - Can injure eyes and burn skin.
Protect your eyes and body. Use the correct welding screen and filter lens and wear protective
clothing.
Protect bystanders with suitable screens or curtains.
FIRE HAZARD
Sparks (spatter) can cause fire. Make sure therefore that there are no inflammable materials nearby.
NOISE - Excessive noise can damage hearing
Protect your ears. Use earmuffs or other hearing protection.
Warn bystanders of the risk.

a certain load without overloading. The duty cycle is valid for 40° C.
Enclosure class
The IP code indicates the enclosure class, i. e. the degree of protection against penetration by solid
objects or water. Equipment marked IP23 is designed for indoor and outdoor use.
Application class
The symbol indicates that the power source is designed for use in areas with increased
electrical hazard.
4 INSTALLATION
The installation must be carried out by a professional.
CAUTION
This product is intended for industrial use. In a domestic environment this product may
cause radio interference. It is the user's responsibility to take adequate precautions.

TIG: for return cable
2 Control panel, see under 5.2 5 Mains cable
3 Connection (-)
MMA: connection for return cable
TIG: connection for Tig torch
4 Toggle switch for mains power supply 0 / 1
5.2 Control panel A31

(yellow)
5.3 Connection of welding and return cable
The power source has two outputs, a positive terminal and a negative terminal, for
connecting welding and return cables. The output to which the welding cable is
connected depends on the type of electrode used. The connecting polarity is stated
on the electrode packaging. Connect the welding cable to the terminal stated on the
electrode packaging.
Connect the return cable to the other output on the power source. Secure the return
cable's contact clamp to the work piece and ensure that there is good contact
between the work piece and the output for the return cable on the power source.

5.4 Overheating protection
The welding power source has a thermal overload trip which operates if the
temperature becomes too high, interrupting the welding current and lighting a yellow
indicating lamp on the front of the power source. The thermal overload trip resets
automatically when the temperature has fallen.
5.5 MMA welding
Arc 152i gives direct current, and you can weld most metals to alloy and non-alloy
steel, stainless steel and cast iron. Arc 152i allows you to weld most coated electrodes
from ∅ 1.6 to ∅ 3.25.
MMA welding may also be referred to as welding with coated electrodes. Striking the
arc melts the electrode, and its coating forms protective slag.
If, when striking the arc, the tip of the electrode is pressed against the metal, it immedi
ately melts and sticks to the metal, rendering continued welding impossible.
Therefore, the arc has to be struck in the same way that you would light a match.
Quickly strike the electrode against the metal, then raise it so
as to give an appropriate arc length (approx. 2 mm). If the arc
is too long, it will crackle and spit before finally going out com
pletely.
If you are working on a welding bench, check before attempting
to strike the arc that residual waste metal, pieces of electrode
cmha2p11
or other objects on the bench do not insulate the part to be
welded.
Once the arc has been struck, move the electrode from left to
right. The electrode must be at an angle of 60° to the metal in
relation to the direction of welding.
When you want to weld wide beads, or when you want the weld
to be so thick that you have to weld in a number of layers, how
ever, you have to use lateral movements.
cmha2p10
5.6 TIG welding
TIG welding melts the metal of the workpiece, using an arc struck from a tungsten
electrode, which does not itself melt. The weld pool and the electrode are protected
by shielding gas.
TIG welding is particularly useful where high quality is demanded and for welding
thin plate. Arc 152i also has good characteristics for TIG welding.
In order to TIG weld, Arc 152i must be equipped with:
a TIG torch with gas valve
a welding gas cylinder (a suitable welding gas)
a welding gas regulator (suitable gas regulator)
tungsten electrode
suitable auxiliary material, if necessary.
TIG scrape start
To scrape start lightly scrape the tungsten
electrode against the workpiece to create an arc.
