Important notes

Items in the manual that require particular attention in order to minimise damage and personal harm are indicated with the ’NOTE!’ notation. Read these sections carefully and follow their instructions.

1.2 PROPERTIES

The welding machine is small, ecient and extremely light. It is easy to carry with the help of a shoulder strap. The machine is suitable for a range of dierent purposes and the possibility to use a long extention cord eases operation in various sites. It is also suitable for generator use on construction sites.

Welding voltage and wire feed speed are adjusted with one control according to the thickness of the welded sheet. Thus, selecting the right parameters is easy. The length of the arc, or welding heat, is trimmed with another control, and once the right value is found there usually is no need to change it even when welding a thicker or thinner sheet.

The machine’s welding properties are optimum with a steel wire of

0.8 mm diameter. Also, 0.6 mm, 0.9 mm or 1.0 mm solid wire or cored wire can be used as ller wire. Note, however, that the machine is designed for steel wire welding only.

2. MACHINE USE

The machine is delivered ready for operation without adjustments with

0.8 mm diameter ller wire. If you use non-recommended ller wire, make sure that the feed roll groove,

welding gun contact tip and machine polarity are suited for the used wire size and type.

2.1 BEFORE IMPLEMENTATION

The products are packed to durable packages especially designed for them. However, always make sure before use that the products have not been damaged during transportation. Check also, that you have received the products you ordered and the instruction manuals needed. Product packing

material is recyclable.

Transportation

The machine should be transported in an upright position.

NOTE! Always move the welding machine by lifting it from the handle. Never pull

it from the welding gun or other cables.

Environment

The machine is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, but it should be protected from heavy rain and sunshine. Store the machine in a dry and clean environment and protect it from sand and dust during use and storage. The recommended operating temperature range is -20 °C – +40 °C.

Place the machine in such a way that it does not come in contact with hot surfaces, sparks and spatters.

Make sure the air ow in the machine is unrestricted.
