1. PREFACE

1.1 General

Congratulations on choosing the FastMig MXF equipment. Used correctly, Kemppi products can signicantly increase the productivity of your welding, and provide years of economical service.

This operating manual contains important information on the use, maintenance and safety of your Kemppi product. The technical specications of the equipment can be found at the end of the manual.

Please read the operating manual and the safety instructions booklet carefully before using the equipment for the rst time. For your own safety and that of your working environment, pay particular attention to the safety instructions in the manual.

For more information on Kemppi products, contact Kemppi Oy, consult an authorised Kemppi dealer, or visit the Kemppi web site at www.kemppi.com.

The specications presented in this manual are subject to change without prior notice.

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 About FastMig products

Kemppi FastMig™ MXF 63, MXF 65 and MXF 67 are wire feeders designed for demanding professional use. MXF 63 is intended for 200 mm wire spool, MXF 65 and MXF 67 for 300 mm wire spool. Wire feeders can be used with FastMig Pulse, FastMig KMS and FastMig M power sources.

Which alternative panel to choose for MXF 63, 65 and 67 depends on the used power source i.e. FastMig KMS becomes compatible by connecting SF 51, SF 52W, SF 53W or SF 54 control panels with MXF wire feed unit, and in the case of PF 63 and PF 65 control panels FastMig Pulse power source can be connected. With FastMig M the MR 200, MR 300, MS 200 or MS 300 panels are used. Operation of wire feed units is controlled and adjusted by microprocessor. By adding an optional synchronization unit (MXF Sync 65), SuperSnake sub-feeder device may be connected to MXF 63, 65 and 67.

This manual provides instructions on the start-up and use of the MXF 63, 65 and 67 MIG/MAG wire feeding units.

2.3 Assembly of MIG/MAG system

Assemble the units in the order mentioned below. Follow the additional mounting and operating instructions delivered with each package.

1. Installation of power source

Read paragraph: ”Installation” in the operation instructions for FastMig power sources, and complete the installation according to that advice.

2. Mounting of power sources to transport wagon

Read and follow the instructions given in the transport cart installation/assembly manual.

3. Mounting the FastMig MXF wire feed unit to the power source

Remove the cover sticker on top of the power source. Screw the fastening pivot into the power source – hand tighten only. Place the supplied plastic spacers over the pivot. Lift the MXF wire feeder into place, locating over the pivot.

4. Connecting cables

Connect the cables in accordance with the equipment notes provided in this manual. The polarity of the welding wire (+ or –) can be selected by connecting the wire feed unit to

either the positive or the negative power source terminals. Most MIG/MAG applications run the wire feed unit connected to the positive terminal of the

power source.

5. Mounting FastMig wire feed units to boom and swing arms

When mounting wire feed units to boom and swing arms, the unit must be electrically isolated from both.

Suspension angle of wire feed unit can be changed by moving the xing point in handle.

2.4 Accessories corresponding to wire diameter

Colour coded wire feed rolls and guide tubes are available to suit a variety of ller wire types and sizes. Drive roll groove geometry and design vary depending on the application. Further details are available in the spare part tables.

Please ensure you select the correct drive rolls and guide tubes from the table to suit your particular welding application.

2.5 Welding gun selection

Please ensure that the welding gun selected is suitable for the target application. Check the gun manufacturer's specication and ensure the gun meets the welding duty requirements. Also consider the extra heating eects of Pulse MIG/MAG welding on the gun selected.

Kemppi gun products are designed to meet many dierent applications. Special wire liners and contact tips are available for dierent wire types and sizes.

Distance wire feeding is accommodated with WeldSnake and SuperSnake products in either air or liquid cooled models.

Thermal and load protection is also designed to some Kemppi Gun models and feed units, so carefully consider your requirements and consult your local Kemppi sales team to ensure you choose the correct alternative for your needs.

2.6 Mounting and locking of wire spool

NOTE! Check that the ller wire spool is correctly mounted and locked into position. Ensure the

spool is not damaged or deformed in such a way that it can rub or cha against the internal surface of the wire feed unit chassis or door. This may result in increased drag, impacting on weld quality. This may also result in long term wire feed unit damage, rendering the unit unserviceable or unsafe to use.

2.7 Loading the ller wire and automatic feed

Automatic wire feed makes wire spool changes faster. When changing the wire spool, the pressure of feed rolls need to be released.

Simply ensure that the groove of the feed roll matches the diameter of ller wire used. Release the wire end from the spool and cut o any deformed section. Be careful the wire does not spill from the spool sides.

Straighten about 20 cm of ller wire and ensure the tip has no sharp edges. File if necessary, as a sharp wire edge may damage the wire gun liner - particularly softer plastic liners.

Present the ller wire tip to the back of the wire feed rolls and press the Wire Inch button on the wire feed panel or use the switch inside the wire spool cabinet. Feed the wire to the gun contact tip and prepare to weld.

NOTE! Smaller diameter ller wires may need to be loaded manually – with the feed roll pressure

arms released. This is because it is easy to overestimate the pressure required to feed these smaller ller wires. Too high feed roll pressures can easily deform ller wires and contribute to later feeding problems.
