3.2 INSTALLATION OF THE WIRE FEED SYSTEM
Wire feeder unit:
1. Mount the return current cable to connector on the Kempomat´s front panel.
2. The MIG gun is mounted to the EURO connector of the wire feeder unit. Use guide tubes
and contact tips according to manufacturer´s operation instructions. Accessories which
are too tight or otherwise unsuitable for the wire type used by you, will cause wire feed
disturbances.
3. Max. wire feed speed
When the unit is delivered the max. wire feed speed is 18 m/min, which is enough for the most
welding works. If you need a higher speed, you can increase the max. wire feed speed to 25 m/
min by replacing the gear wheel on motor shaft to a bigger one. The big gear wheel (D40) is
delivered on order.
When necessary speed is changed according to following:
• Open tightening lever (20). Remove lower feed rolls (21). Release screw (23) and its
washer. Remove gear wheel D28 (24) from motor shaft.
• Loosen screws (25) (3 pc) 1 twist. Mount the D40 gear wheel onto motor shaft. Screw the
screw (23) with its washer back.
• Put feed rolls (21) back to their axles, however don´t fasten yet fastening screws of the
feed rolls (22).
• Lift the motor so that the tooth gap between gear wheel and both lower feed rolls is
approx. 0,2 mm.
• Tighten screws (25). Check gear teeth gaps, when necessary put the motor into a better
position. Screw on the mounting rolls of feed rolls (22).
• Too small gap between gear wheel and feed rolls will overload motor.
• Too big gap for its part might cause too rapid wearing for teeth of feed rolls and gear
wheel.
4. The shielding gas hose is mounted to the snap connector on the rear wall of the
unit. Mounting to the gas bottle and shielding gas ow regulation, see paragraph for
SHIELDING GAS.
3.3 INSTALLATION OF WIRE FEED
Accessories according to wire feed
Wire feed rolls are available with plain groove, knurled groove and with trapezoidal groove for
dierent purposes.

Wire feed rolls have two grooves for dierent ller wire diameters. Correct wire groove is
selected by moving selecting washer from one side to another in feed roll.
Feed rolls and wire guide tubes have colour codes in order to make identication easier.
By delivery Kempomat is equipped with red feed rolls with plain groove and with orange wire
guide tubes for welding ller wires 0.9 - 1.2 mm (0.035”, 0.045” and 0.052”).
3.4 MOUNTING OF MIG WELDING GUN
In order to ensure trouble-free welding check in operation instructions of gun used by you
that wire guide tube and contact tip of gun are according to manufacturer´s recommendation
suitable to be used for wire feed diameter and type in question. Too tight a wire guide tube
might cause for wire feeder unit a bigger stress than normally as well as disturbances in wire
feed.
Screw snap connector of gun tight that there won´t come any voltage losses on connecting
surface.
A loose connection will heat gun and wire feeder unit.
NOTE! Make sure that the welding gun in your use is designed for max. welding current needed by
you! Never use a damaged welding gun!
3.5 MOUNTING AND LOCKING OF WIRE REEL
• Release locking nails of wire reel hub by turning locking knob to the position OPEN.
• Mount the reel at its place. Note rotating direction of reel!
• Turn the locking knob to the position LOCKED.
NOTE! Check in ller wire reel that there are no parts sticking out, which could e.g. chafe against
chassis or door of wire feeder unit. Dragging parts might expose chassis of wire feeder unit under
voltage.
LOCKED OPEN

3.6 AUTOMATIC WIRE FEED TO GUN
Automatic wire feed makes change of wire reel more rapid. In reel change the pressure of feed
rolls need not to be released and ller wire goes automatically to correct wire line.
• Make sure that groove of feed roll matches the diameter of welding wire used. Feed roll
groove is selected by moving the groove selecting washer. Also the selector plate for
changing the feed roll groove has to be moved similarly. (see tables on pages 6 and 7).
Groove selecting washer
• Release the wire end from reel and cut o the bent length. Be careful that the wire does
not spill from the reel to sides!
• Straighten about 20 cm of the wire and see that the end of it has no sharp edges (le
o if necessary). A sharp edge may damage the wire guide tube and contact tip of the
welding gun.
• Draw a bit of loose wire from wire reel. Feed wire through back liner to feed rolls. Don´t
release pressure of feed rolls!
• Press the gun switch and feed a bit wire until wire goes through feed rolls to gun. See
that wire is in grooves of both feed roll pairs!
• Press still the gun switch until wire has come through contact tip.
Automatic feed may sometimes fail with thin wires (Fe, Ss: 0.6 ... 0.8 mm, Al, Fc: 0.8 ... 1.0 mm).
Then it might be possible that you must open feed rolls and feed wire manually through feed
rolls.
Adjustment of pressure
Adjust the pressure of feed rolls with the control screw (20) so that the wire is fed into the wire
guide tube evenly and allows a little braking when coming out from the contact tip without
slipping at the feed rolls.
NOTE! Excessive pressure causes attening of the ller wire and damage to the coating. It also
causes undue wear of the feed rolls as well as friction.
3.7 ADJUSTMENT OF TIGHTNESS OF WIRE REEL BRAKE
Brake force is adjusted through hole in locking device of reel hub by screwing the control
screw with screwdriver.
Adjust brake force as so big that the wire cannot spill from the reel when the rotation of the
reel stops. Need for brake force is increased with increase of the wire feed speed.
Since the brake loads for its part the motor, you shouldn´t keep it unnecessarily tight.

3.8 SHIELDING GAS
As MIG shielding gas is used carbon dioxide, mixed gases and argon. Shielding gas ow rate is
dened by welding current size. Typical rate of gas in welding of steel is 8-15 l / min.
Gas ow regulator
Gas ow regulator should be suitable for shielding gas used by you. The regulator being in
your use might be dierent from the one in picture, however, following general instructions
are valid for all pressure regulators.
Before mounting of ow regulator
1. Step aside and open the bottle valve (A) for a while to blow out possible impurities from
the bottle valve.
2. Turn the press regulation screw (B) of the regulator until no spring pressure can be felt.
3. Close needle valve, if there is one in the regulator.
4. Install the regulator on bottle valve and tighten connecting nut (C) with a wrench.
5. Install hose spindle (D) and jacket nut (E) into gas hose and tighten with hose clamp.
6. Connect the hose with the regulator and the other end with the power source. Tighten
the jacket nut.
7. Open bottle valve slowly. Gas bottle pressure meter (F) shows the bottle pressure. Note!
Do not use the whole contents of the bottle. The bottle should be lled when the bottle
pressure is 2 bar.
8. Open needle valve if there is one in the regulator.
9. Turn regulation screw (B) until hose pressure meter (G) shows the required ow (or
pressure). When regulating ow amount, the power source should be switched on and
gas test button on the panel pressed simultaniously.
Close bottle valve after having nished welding. If the machine will be out of use for a long
time, unscrew the pressure regulation screw.

Pilot lamps of the machine report about electric function:
The green pilot lamp indicating that the machine is ready for operation is always illuminated,
when the machine is connected to mains voltage and you have selected welding voltage
range from the main switch.
The yellow pilot lamp for thermal protection is illuminated, when thermal protection of the
welding circuit has released due to overheating. The protection releases if the power source is
continuously loaded over rated values or the cooling air circulation has been obstructed.
The cooling fan is cooling down the machine and after the pilot lamp has switched o, the
machine is again ready for welding from the gun trigger.
Control fuse
On the rear plate of the power source the fuse 8 A delayed is the short-circuit protection. Use
the fuse size and type according to markings. Damage caused by a wrong type fuse is not
covered by the guarantee. If the fuse is blowing again, send the unit to service.
4.5 ADJUSTMENT FOR ARC ROUGHNESS
Arc roughness is adjusted by connecting the return current cable to the applicable one of the
two dix-connectors on the front plate.
The connector marked with symbol I gives a rougher arc, which is used for welding of thin
sheets and ferrous metals by 0.6 - 1.0 mm wires and especially with CO² shielding gas. The
connector marked with symbol II is suitable for thicker wires and especially for aluminium and
stainless materials. The most suitable roughness is, however, most dependent on the welding
case. You will nd the best position by testing the dierent positions.
4.6 OPERATION OF COOLING FAN
The cooling fan on the rear plate of the Kempomat machine is started and stopped according
to use. The cooling fan is started after ca. 15 s after weld start and stopped after ca. 10 min
after weld end or release of the overheat protection.
NOTE! The fan is intaking air from rear plate side! Don´t switch o the unit with the main switch
before the cooling fan has automatically stopped. By open circuit the cooling fan does not get
started.
5. CONTROL PANELS AND ADJUSTMENTS
5.1 WIRE FEED SPEED POTENTIOMETER
The wire feed speed is adjusted steplessly with the potentiometer on the front panel, see the
paragraph Panels. The potentiometer has the memory scale for max. speeds of 18 m/min and
25 m/min. See the section Installation of wire feed equipment, paragraph 3. Max. wire feed
speed.
5.2 BURN BACK TIME
Dierent ller materials and shielding gases behave in dierent ways in the welding end, so
that you should switch o the welding current with a delay, which is suitable for wire feed
stopping according to the welding case.
If you try to end welding with an unsuitable burn back time, the wire will burn in the contact
tip, there will be too big “balloon” at the wire end, or the wire will stick at the ending point.
15
Kempomat 2500, 3200, 4200 / © Kemppi Oy / 1117
EN
Factors inuencing on the delay:
The wire feed speed has a signicant inuence on required burn back time. By low wire feed
speeds always select the short burn back time.
• Melting of aluminium is much quicker than by steel-base materials, so that the burn back
time is clearly shorter.
• Steel and especially ller wires require longer time than the stainless materials.
• Thicker ller wires require longer time. Also by increase of wire feed speed the required
time should be longer. In the instruction label are given starting points for adjustment.
The ne-adjustment should be carried out according to each case in question.
• Memory scale for adjustment potentiometer
• The wire inch switch starts the wire feed motor and mechanism, but not the power
source.
The ller wire can be driven to the wire feeder unit, gun and interconnection cable also
with the welding gun´s switch, but then also the power source will get started and the wire
becomes live (gets voltage), and this can cause a danger situation by accidental contact to
surrounding objects.

5.3 KMW TIMER FUNCTIONS
The control includes the welding with the closed-open operation of the gun trigger, this is
called the 2-sequence procedure. The KMW timer also has the 4-sequence procedure, with
which you can release the trigger for the time of welding, as well as the wire feed timer, which
helps you to control the spot or cycle arc welding.
2 / 4-sequence procedure
2T: The welding with the 2-sequence trigger procedure of the gun.
1. Switch pressed: welding starts
2. Switch open: welding stops
4T: The welding with the 4-sequence trigger procedure of the gun.
1. Switch pressed: shielding gas is owing
2. Switch open: welding starts
3. Switch pressed: welding stops
4. Switch open: gas ow stops after the post gas time
Spot, cycle arc and continuous welding
(is operating only in the 2-sequence procedure position)
Spot welding
1. Set the spot time with the potentiometer.
2. The gun switch pressed: welding starts
3. Welding ends automatically after the set time
Cycle arc welding
1. Set the welding cycle time with the potentiometer. The pause time is adjusted automatically.
2. The gun switch pressed: welding is started and continued for so long as the switch is
pressed.

6. ACCESSORIES
Volt / Ampere metering unit MSD 1
For the mounting of the MSD 1 remove the cover plate on the front panel of the unit.
The connector of at cable fastened to the cover plate is connected to the corresponding
connector of the MSD 1. From the metering unit you can with lever switch select momentary
display for either voltage or current. By open circuit only voltage value is displayed, because
there is no welding current present.
The voltage value is the voltage between the unit´s welding connectors or terminal voltage.
The value of the open circuit voltage has not very much importance for the welding, so that
the display of the metering unit is adjusted according to the welding situation. The display
of the open circuit voltage diers 1 - 2 V from the true voltage. During welding the terminal
voltage is varying and the arc voltage diers from the terminal voltage due to cable etc. losses.
Accuracy of voltage true value in respect to real value is ±4.0 % ±0.2 V by welding values
according to the norm. Accuracy of current true value in respect to real value is ±2.5 % ±2 A.
The metering unit doesn´t show wire feed values. The MSD 1 doesn´t need any calibration in
the Kempomat units. The switch positions: V = voltage display, A = current display.
6.1 KMW SYNC
The push-pull gun is most often used for feed of thin aluminium wires, when over 5 m reach
is required. You can connect the gun equipped with the EURO adaptor to the KMW sync unit.
The push-pull gun´s potentiometer is connected to amphenol connector, mounted onto front
wall of the Kempomat. You can connect to this connector also some other potentiometer,
which has suitable values for it. With the unit´s switch you can select the Kempomat operation
or the push-pull gun operation. Concerning the right connections in the gun, contact your
KEMPPI dealer.
6.2 INSTALLATION AND MOUNTING OF KMW SYNC
In the accessories of the KMW timer are included electronics card, potentiometer knob, switch
protections, at cable and fastening screws.
1. Remove the side plate as well as frame and panel cover plate of the wire feed panel.
2. Remove protective knobs of the holes on the panel plate.
3. Mount the KMW timer electronics card in such a way that the switch levers and
potentiometer axle penetrate through the holes.
4. Mount the protective caps of the switches above the levers.
5. Fasten the card to back edge of the base with two screws. Don´t tighten unnecessarily
much. Mount the panel cover plate with its frame back at its place.
6. Turn the potentiometer axle into clockwise direction to extreme position. Mount the
potentiometer knob onto axle in such a way that the dial line shows the reading more
than 1.5 s. Check that the knob can be turned freely and that in the other extreme
position the dial line shows the value less than 0.1 s. Correct if necessary. Mount the
knob cap.
7. Connect one connector of the at cable to the KMW timer card connector.
8. Connect the other connector of the at cable to connector for KMW timer on the control
card A001.
9. Fasten the side plate back at its place.
