General
Principle
Machine concept
Driving vehicle FDV 22 MF is a portable, battery-powered longitudinal truck with 4-wheel drive. The driving vehicle is used to execute mechanised butt and llet welds in horizon­tal or vertical welding positions, with or without oscillation.
Driving vehicle FDV 22 MF has been for designed for exibility and to improve pro­ductivity in the execution of longitudinal weld seams. A spatter guard mounted on the working side and powder coating of all
housing components enable use in harsh operating conditions. A large holding and carrying handle and
robust yet lightweight design allow quick and easy positioning on the workpiece.
The driving vehicle adheres to the com­ponent by means of a permanent magnet. This guarantees the best possible traction even in vertical use.
The guide wheels automatically track the torch in the lled joint. The universal torch holder allows use of
Driving vehicle FDV 22 MF
both manual and machine welding torches.
Field of applica­tion
Proper use
The FDV 22 MF can be equipped with a torch oscillation unit. The driving vehicle together with the optional oscillation unit is powered by the inter-
changeable battery pack. The control unit is integrated into the driving vehicle. The control panel has an illuminated
display allowing simple and user-friendly parameter setting for the driving vehicle.
Driving vehicle FDV 22 MF can be used in all situations where a high degree of exibility is required when executing longitudinal weld seams:
- Welding of longitudinal members
- Shipyards
- Bridge construction
- Workshops
- Production halls
- Building sites
Driving vehicle FDV 22 MF must only be used for performing mechanised butt and llet welds in horizontal or vertical welding positions. Any other use shall be deemed to be im­proper use and the manufacturer will assume no responsibility for any damages arising. The following welding processes are possible:
- MIG/MAG process
Proper use also includes:
- use of the charger FDV MF and battery pack (14.4V / 3 Ah) included with the driving
vehicle
- use of the permanent magnet with a minimum sheet thickness of 5 mm
- use of MIG / MAG welding torches with a holder diameter of 16 - 22 mm
3
Proper use
(continued)
- use with the „Drive wheel stainless steel“ option in PA welding position
- carrying out all maintenance work at the appropriate intervals
- keeping a service book with the most IMPORTANT data (date, operator, activities
carried out)
- using the spare parts stipulated by Fronius
- following all the information in the operating instructions
- using this document in conjunction with the operating instructions of the integrated system components (power source, wire-feed unit, etc.)
Improper use
Conversions or
modications
Operating instructions
Any use of the machine other than for its intended purpose shall be deemed improper
use. This includes:
- using on preheated workpieces > 50 ° C
- Transporting people
- Standing on the machine or using it as a work platform
- As a storage surface for tools
- Use outside the permitted technical operating limits
- Use in hazardous areas
If the user carries out any unauthorised conversion or modication of the equipment, any liability or warranty from the manufacturer is invalidated. The electromagnetic characteristics of the equipment can be adversely a󰀨ected by any kind of addition or modication. No modications or upgrades to the equipment should therefore be undertaken without rst consulting the manufacturers and receiving written
approval.
The operating instructions help you to use the carriage e󰀩ciently and must be accessible
at all times.
- Keep the operating instructions near the corresponding parts of the carriage at all times.
- Clearly mark the place where the instructions are kept
- Ensure that all persons using the carriage know where the operating instructions are located.
- The operating instructions will only be able to help you if you can get to them when there is a problem!
IMPORTANT! The manufacturer shall not be liable for any damage that arises from failu­re to observe the operating instructions.
Instructions The system operator must, before they start, tell all people working on the carriage
about:
- the theoretical and practical aspects of operating the system
- the safety regulations applicable to the system.
IMPORTANT! This obligation applies in particular to persons who only work occasionally
on the carriage.

Welding position and seam tracking
Possible welding positions
The 4-wheel drive and built-in permanent magnet ensure that the driving vehicle adheres optimally to the workpiece and guarantee the best possible traction. The following weld-
ing positions are possible.
IMPORTANT! In vertical operation, the driving vehicle must be secured by a load secur-
ing device with a locking function to prevent it from falling. The load securing device must be designed for the total weight of the vehicle. The manufacturer accepts no liability for any damage to persons or property resulting from vertical use of the driving vehicle with-
out a load securing device.
SlopingHorizontal
NOTE! From an angle of 45° upwards, the driving vehicle must be secured by a load securing device with a locking function to prevent it from falling.
Outside of container with min. diameter of 3000 mmVertical
NOTE! When used on the outside of a container, the container must be turned in the opposite direction and at the same speed.
