2. BEFORE YOU START USING THE UNIT
2.1 Unpacking
The equipment is packed in durable packages, designed specially for it. Nevertheless, before
using the equipment, always make sure it was not damaged during transport. Also check
that you have received what you ordered and that there are instructions for it. NOTE! The
packaging material of the products is suitable for recycling.
2.2 Placement of the unit
Place the unit on a horizontal, solid, and clean surface. Shield it from heavy rain and scorching
sun. Make sure that cooling air circulates freely.
The serial number of the unit is marked on the rating plate of the unit. The serial number
makes it possible to trace product manufacturing series. You might need the serial number
when placing spare parts orders or when planning maintenance.
2.4 Connection to the mains supply
The Kempact 2530 is equipped with a ve metre mains cable without a plug. Installation of
the plug should be carried out only by a competent electrician. For fuse and cable sizes, see
the technical data in the end of this document.
2.5 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.
WARNING: This equipment does not comply with IEC 61000-3-12. If it is connected to a public
low voltage system, 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 may be
connected.
2.6 Ground cable
Fasten the earth clamp of the return current cable carefully, preferably direct onto the piece to
be welded. The contact surface of the earth clamp should always be as large as possible. Clean
the fastening surface from paint and rust. Use at least 35 mm² cables. Thinner cross-sectional
areas cause overheating of connectors.
Make sure the gun wire conduit and the ow nozzle match the manufacturer’s
recommendations for the type and diameter of wire you use. Too small a conduit may
overload the wire feed device and disturb the wire feeding. Tighten the gun quick connector
to eliminate voltage losses. A loose joint will make the gun and the wire feeder warm.
NOTE! Do not use a damaged gun.
2.9 Mounting and locking of wire reel
LOCKED OPEN
• Release locking nails of wire reel hub by turning locking knob a quarter round.
• Mount the reel at its place. Note rotating direction of reel!
• Lock the reel with locking knob, locking nails of hub remain to outside position and will
lock the reel.
2.10 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.
• 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. Do not
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, Fc, Ss: 0.6...0.8 mm, Al: 0.8...1.0 mm). In
that case you might have to open feed rolls and feed wire manually through feed rolls.
NOTE! Check that the wire or wire reel does not touch the equipment body, there is a danger of
short circuit

2.11 Adjustment of pressure
Adjust the pressure of feed rolls with the control screw 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.

2.12 Adjustment of tightness of reel brake
A
Brake force is adjusted through hole in locking device of reel hub by screwing the control
screw (A) with screwdriver.
Adjust brake force as so big that the wire is not allowed to become too loose on the reel so
that it would spill from the reel when the rotation of the reel stops. Need for brake force is
increased with increase of wire feed speed.
Since the brake loads for its part the motor, you shouldn’t keep it unnecessarily tight.
2.13 Shielding gas
The MIG shielding gas consists of carbon dioxide, mixed gases and argon. Shielding gas
ow rate is determined by the amount of welding current. The typical ow rate of gas in the
welding of steel is 8–15 l / min.
The following installation instructions are valid for most gas ow regulator types:

1. Step aside and open the bottle valve (A) for a while to blow out possible impurities.
2. Turn the press regulation screw (B) of the regulator until no spring pressure can be felt.
3. Close the needle valve if there is one in the regulator.
4. Install the regulator on bottle valve and tighten the connecting nut (C) with a wrench.
5. Install the hose spindle (D) and jacket nut (E) into the gas hose and tighten with a hose
clamp
6. Connect the hose with the regulator and the other end with the wire feed unit.
Tighten jacket nut.
7. Open the bottle valve slowly. The gas bottle pressure meter (F) shows bottle pressure.
NOTE! Do not use the whole contents of the bottle. Bottle should be lled when bottle pressure is
2 bar.
8. Open the needle valve if there is one in the regulator.
9. Turn the regulation screw (B) until the hose pressure meter (G) shows the required ow
(or pressure). When regulating the ow amount, the power source should be switched
on and the gun switch pressed simultanously.
NOTE! Close the bottle valve after welding is nished. If the machine will not be in use for a long
time, unscrew the pressure regulation screw. Always fasten the gas ottle tightly in vertical position,
to a wall stand or bottle cart, specially designed for it. For safety reasons, always remove the gas
bottle from the transport stand of the machine before lifting of transport of the machine by car!
3. OPERATION
3.1 Main switch and signal lights
With the switch in the ‘I’ position, the primary and control circuits of the machine become live
and the ‘ON’ signal light on the panel lights up. The welding circuit receives voltage when the
gun switch is operated or when the wire feed test switch is pressed.
Always use the main switch to turn the machine on and o with the main switch; do not use
the power plug for this purpose.
3.2 To select polarity for welding
Solid wire is usually welded in + pole and cored wire in – pole gun. Check for the
recommended polarity on the package or consult the supplier of the product. The welding of
very thin plates (0.5 to 0.7 mm) – polarity might also work best for solid wire.
3.2.1 Changing the polarity
1. – pole
2. + pole
NOTE! Only a service shop authorised by Kemppi may change the polarity.

3.3 Panel
Adjusting voltage and wire feed speed
The welding voltage can be adjusted from 10 to 30 V, and the wire feed speed from 1 to
18 m/min. Adjust the values appropriately by using the table of guideline values on the door
of the wire compartment and by testing.

3.4 Selecting the welding procedure (2T/4T)
2T: MIG welding with double action of the start switch of the gun:
1. Switch closed – welding starts.
2. Switch open – welding ends.
4T: MIG welding with quadruple action of the start switch of the gun:
The adjustment of MIG welding dynamics inuences the properties of the welding arc and the
amount of splatter. The recommended basic setting is ‘0’. The values -> min (-1...-9) provide a
softer arc for diminishing the amount of spatter. The values -> max (1...9) provide a coarser arc,
suitable when increased arc stability is desired and when using 100% CO₂ shielding gas for
welding steel.
EN
3.6 Thermostat
The temperature control of the machine prevents the power source from over-heating.This
means that the machine can not become damaged if loading exceeds the specied load
factor during welding. When the signal lamp indicating overheating is lit, the welding circuit
can not be activated. The lamp will turn o after a pause of about three minutes, and welding
can be started again in the usual way by pressing gun switch.
3.7 Wire feed switch
10
The wire feed switch will start the wire feed motor without opening the gas valve. The power
source will start up, but without providing welding power.
