General
PrincipleThe FDV 50 carriage is astraight-line carriagewith a 2-wheel drive for welding mechani-
sed butt and llet welds in a horizontal welding position.
Device concept
Scope of supply
Field of
application
The FDV 50 carriage has been designed
for exibility and to improve productivity in
the execution of longitudinal weld seams.
Robust yet lightweight design allows quick
and easy positioning on the workpiece.
The carriage is powered by a mains cable.
It is controlled and operated by a remote
control.
FDV 50 carriage
FDV 50 carriage 8,045,099
FCU9 / M1 control unit 8,040,026
FRC9 remote control 8,046,016
The FDV 50 carriage 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
3
Proper use
The FDV 50 carriage must only be used for welding mechanised butt and llet welds in a
horizontal welding position.
Any other use shall be deemed improper and the manufacturer will assume no
responsibility for any damages arising.
Can be used in the following welding processes:
- MIG / MAG process
Proper use also includes:
- Carrying out all maintenance work at the appropriate intervals
- Keeping a service book with the most important information (date, operator, activities
carried out)
- Using the spare parts stipulated by Fronius
- Following all the information in the operating instructions
- Using this document in combination with the operating instructions for the integrated
system components (power source, wire-feed unit, etc.)
NOTE! Any use of the machine other than for its intended purpose or any
unauthorised conversion or modications, shall be deemed improper use.
Any liability or warranty from the manufacturer is hereby invalidated.
Warning notices
on the carriage
A number of safety symbols can be seen on the rating plate axed to the carriage. The
safety symbols must not be removed or painted over.

Welding positions
Possible
welding positions
Exceptional track consistency is assured by the wheels with grooves and the 2-wheel
drive, which can be uncoupled.
The following welding positions are possible:
- PA position
Preparing the carriage
Checking the
surface of the
workpiece and
the carriage to
ensure they are
clean
Carriage strain
relief
Before positioning the carriage, check the following:
- The surface of the workpiece must be clean (no sand, shavings, etc.)
- The tread and grooves of the drive wheels must not be damaged and must be free of
shavings, dirt and welding spatter
To attain optimum wirefeed, observe the following when connecting and routing the
hosepack:
- Do not allow the hosepack to become kinked
- Always lay the hosepack as straight as possible
- Suspend hosepack if necessary. Use balancer and hosepack holder.

WARNING! Operating the equipment incorrectly can cause serious injury and
damage. Do not use the functions described here until you have thoroughly
read and understood the following documents:
- These operating instructions
- all the operating instructions for the system components,
especially the safety rules
The following activities and work steps apply to the installed system. All connections
must be established. Before start-up, check the connections of the following system
components:
- Power source
- Cooling circuit
- Gas cylinder
- Wire-feed unit
- Welding torch with hosepack
- Workpiece
Precise information on the assembly and connection of the system components can be
found in the relevant system component operating instructions.

IMPORTANT! There are no xed rules for the sequence in which the system
components are switched on. They can be switched on in any order.
On the following system components turn the main switch to the "ON - 1" position:
- Carriage control unit
- Power source
- Wire-feed unit (if power is not supplied from the power source)
Determine the following settings for the welding process:
- Start-up delay
- Welding direction
- Traversing speed

Carrying out
test run
welding process
Perform a test run to check that all system components work together correctly. This is
done without an arc and thus allows you to check all movements during the process.
1. Switch the "Welding ON / OFF" toggle switch to the OFF position.
2. Press the START button. The welding test sequence starts.
IMPORTANT! Never leave the machine unattended, particularly when it is moving
automatically.
3. Carry out a visual check during the process.
4. If necessary, make the relevant corrections (welding torch position, direction of travel
of carriage, traversing speed, etc.).
5. After the test, move the carriage back to its original position.
Start the welding process:Starting the
1. Switch the "Welding ON / OFF" toggle switch to the ON position.
2. Press the START button. The welding process starts.
IMPORTANT! Never leave the machine unattended, particularly when it is moving
automatically.

Troubleshooting
General
Basic
requirements for
the system to
work
Carriage
In the event of faults, note that the functioning of the entire system depends on many
additional components (power source, wire-feed unit, etc.) that are also potential sources
of problems.
- Connections established between separate system components
- System components are supplied with electricity and the mains voltage is as
specied (see rating plate)
Carriage is switched on but does not move
Cause:Carriage overloaded (e.g. the torch cables pull the carriage up)
Remedy:Relieve cable strain (suspend)
Cause:Wheels dirty (with oil)
Remedy:Clean the wheels
Play on the torch
Cause:Play on the handles
Remedy:Tighten handles
Control,
remote control
Cause:Play on the guide rails
Remedy:Tighten the pressure screws
Nothing happens, main switch does not light up
Cause:Main switch is switched o
Remedy:Switch the device on
Cause:No connection to the mains
Remedy:Check the mains lead, mains plug and mains cable
Cause:Mains fuse is faulty
Remedy:Replace the mains fuse: glass-tube fuse
No function, main switch lights up
Cause:Emergency Stop has been actuated
Remedy:Release the Emergency Stop button
Cause:No connection to the carriage
Remedy:Check the control line
Cause:Frequency converter error
Remedy:- Switch the device o
- Wait 15 seconds
- Switch the device on again

Remedy:- Switch the device o
- Wait 15 seconds
- Switch the device on again
Arc ignites, carriage does not move
Cause:Value too high for start-up delay
Remedy:Change the "Start-up delay time" parameter (start-up delay
potentiometer)
Carriage moves but arc does not ignite
Cause:Power source switched o
Remedy:Switch on the power source
