1SAFETY
Users of ESAB welding equipment have the ultimate responsibility for ensuring that anyone who
works on or near the equipment observes all the relevant safety precautions. Safety precautions
must meet the requirements that apply to this type of welding equipment. The following recommendations should be observed in addition to the standard regulations that apply to the workplace.
All work must be carried out by trained personnel well--acquainted with the operation of the welding
equipment. Incorrect operation of the equipment may lead to hazardous situations which can result
in injury to the operator and damage to the equipment.
1. Anyone who uses the welding equipment must be familiar with:
S its operation
S location of emergency stops
S its function
S relevant safety precautions
S welding
2. The operator must ensure that:
S no unauthorized person is stationed within the working area of the equipment when it is
started up.
S no--one is unprotected when the arc is struck
3. The workplace must:
S be suitable for the purpose
S be free from drafts
4. Personal safety equipment
S Always wear recommended personal safety equipment, such as safety glasses, flame--proof
clothing, safety gloves.
S Do not wear loose--fitting items, such as scarves, bracelets, rings, etc., which could become
trapped or cause burns.
5. General precautions
S Make sure the return cable is connected securely.
S Work on high voltage equipment may only be carried out by a qualified electrician.
S Appropriate fire extinquishing equipment must be clearly marked and close at hand.
S Lubrication and maintenance must not be carried out on the equipment during operation.

WARNING
Read and understand the instruction manual before installing or operating.
Arc welding and cutting can be injurious to yourself and others. Take precausions when welding.
Ask for your employer’s safety practices which should be based on manufacturers’ hazard data.
ELECTRIC SHOCK - Can kill
S Install and earth the welding unit in accordance with applicable standards.
S Do not touch live electrical parts or electrodes with bare skin, wet gloves or wet clothing.
S Insulate yourself from earth and the workpiece.
S Ensure your working stance is safe.
FUMES AND GASES - Can be dangerous to health
S Keep your head out of the fumes.
S 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.
S Protect your eyes and body. Use the correct welding screen and filter lens and wear protective
clothing.
S Protect bystanders with suitable screens or curtains.
FIRE HAZARD
S Sparks (spatter) can cause fire. Make sure therefore that there are no inflammable materials nearby.
NOISE - Excessive noise can damage hearing
S Protect your ears. Use earmuffs or other hearing protection.
S Warn bystanders of the risk.
MALFUNCTION - Call for expert assistance in the event of malfunction.
PROTECT YOURSELF AND OTHERS!
CAUTION!
Read and understand the instruction manual before
installing or operating.
CAUTION!
Class A equipment is not intended for use in residential locations where
the electrical power is provided by the public low--voltage supply
system. There may be potential difficulties in ensuring electromagnic
compatibility of class A equipment in those locations, due to conducted
as well as radiated disturbances.
CAUTION!
This product is solely intended for arc welding.

Do not dispose of electrical equipment together with normal waste!
In observance of European Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste Electrical and Electronic
Equipment and its implementation in accordance with national law, electrical equipment
that has reached the end of its life must be collected separately and returned to an
environmentally compatible recycling facility. As the owner of the equipment, you should
get information on approved collection systems from our local representative.
By applying this European Directive you will improve the environment and human
health!
ESAB can provide you with all necessary welding protection an d accessories.
2 INTRODUCTION
The wire feed units Feed 3004 / Feed 4804 with control panel MA23 or MA24 are
intended for MIG/MAG welding together with 400A, 500A and 600A CAN
welding power sources.
The wire feed units contain four--wheel drive wire feed mechanisms as well as
control electronics.
They can be used together with wire on ESAB’s MarathonPact, or on wire bobbin
(standard Ø 300 mm, accessory Ø 440 mm).
The wire feed unit can be installed either on the power source trolley, suspended above
the workplace, on a counter balance device or on the floor with or without wheel set.
ESAB’s accessories for the product can be found on page 20.
2.1 Equipment
The wire feed unit is supplied with:
S instruction manual for the wire feed unit
S instruction manual in English for the control panel
S decal with recommended wear parts.
2.2 Control panel
The wire feed unit is supplied with one of the following control panels:
MA23
Knobs for setting the voltage and the wire feed speed /
current. Other settings with push buttons.
MA24
Knobs for setting the voltage / QSett and the wire feed
speed / current. Other settings with push buttons.
See the separate instruction manual for a detailed description of the control panels.
