1.2 About welding

FitWeld Evo 300 is suitable for many MIG/MAG welding applications, but its quick ignition and high eciency make it especially fast, safe and economic for tack welding of steel materials. It can be used for welding with ferrous, stainless steel and aluminium ller materials.

FitWeld Evo 300 is designed for use in demanding environments. It has wire feed cabinet illumination to facilitate wire adjustment in dark conditions, and its case is made of reinforced bre plastic.

Tack welding with the MIG/MAG process

Tack welding is used during the fabrication and tting process, using spot-like welds to establish the joints before primary welding.

Using MIG/MAG process for tack welding makes this phase fast and ecient. It is also a safer compared to traditional MMA tack welding.

2. USING THE MACHINE

2.1 Before use

2.3 Distribution network

All regular electrical devices without special circuits generate harmonic currents into distribution network. High rates of harmonic current may cause losses and disturbance to some equipment.

This equipment complies with IEC 61000-3-12 provided that the short-circuit power Ssc is greater than or equal to 1.9 MVA at the interface point between the user’s supply and the public supply network. It is the responsibility of the installer or user of the equipment to ensure, by consultation with the distribution network operator if necessary, that the equipment is connected only to a supply with a short-circuit power Ssc greater than or equal to 1.9 MVA.

2.4 Connecting cables

Before you can start welding with FitWeld Evo 300, you must connect the machine to the mains power supply, attach the welding gun and the earth return cable and the shielding gas supply. You must also equip the machine with a ller wire spool suitable for your welding application.
