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
modications
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 modication of the equipment, any
liability or warranty from the manufacturer is invalidated.
The electromagnetic characteristics of the equipment can be adversely aected by any
kind of addition or modication. No modications 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 eciently 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.
InstructionsThe 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.

WARNING!
Risk of burns from hot surfaces.
The protective plate covering the battery pack heats up over
extended periods of welding. Touching the plate may cause burns.
- Do not touch the protective plate.
- Wear protective gloves and suitable safety goggles or a protective helmet.
IMPORTANT! Using the „Stainless steel drive wheel“ option
is permitted only in PA welding
position.

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.
