1.3. OPERATION SAFETY
Please study these Operation safety instructions and respect them when installing, operating and servicing the machine.
Welding arc and spatters
Welding arc hurts unprotected eyes. Be careful also with reflecting arc flash. Welding arc and spatter burn unprotected skin. Use safety gloves and protective clothing.
Danger for fire or explosion
Pay attention to fire safety regulations. Remove flammable or explosive materials from wel­ding place. Always reserve sufficient fire-fighting equipment on welding place. Be prepared for hazards in special welding jobs, eg. for the danger of fire or explosion when welding container type work pieces. Note! Fire can break out from sparks even several hours after the welding
work has been finished!
Mains voltage
Never take welding machine inside a work piece (eg. container or truck). Do not place welding machine on a wet surface. Always check cables before operating the machine. Change defect cables without delay. Defect cables may cause an injury or set out a fire. Connection cable must not be compressed, it must not touch sharp edges or hot work pieces.
Welding power circuit
Isolate yourself by using proper protective clothing, do not wear wet clothing. Never work on a wet surface or use defect cables. Do not put MIG-gun or welding cables on welding machine or on other electric equipment. Do not press MIG-gun switch, if the gun is not directed towards a work piece.
Welding fumes
Take care that there is sufficient ventilation during welding. Take special safety precautions when welding metals which contain lead, cadmium, zinc, mercury or beryllium.

3.3.1. 1-MIG or PulsedMIG synergic curve is selected as follows
a) Select 1-MIG or PulsedMIG. b) Select material group. You get from the material group in question the curve with which
was started last. If the selected material is not the right one, you can browse materials in the
material group by re-pressing the material group selection key. c) Select shielding gas. Only gas selections possible for the material in question are displayed. d) Select wire diameter. Only diameters possible for the filler wire/gas selection in question
can be selected. The unit remembers (MEMORY) last selections from each material group
(material, gas, wire diameter) separately at 1-MIG and PulsedMIG.
3.4. BASIC CONTROLS, BASIC DISPLAYS, WELD DATA
17. Control for wire feed speed in MIG/MAG, welding power in 1-MIG and PulsedMIG, and welding cur­rent in MMA.
18. Display for wire feed speed or MMA current.
19. Informative plate thickness display in 1-MIG and PulsedMIG for horizontal vertical fillet weld. During welding true welding current display.
20. Control for welding voltage (MIG/MAG), or arc length (1-MIG and Pulsed MIG).

The double-pulse function operates only with PulsedMIG welding. Wire feed speed can be regulated max. 2.5 m/min above and below the relected wire feed speed. At the same time, the synergic welding para­meters are changed to match the current wire feed speed. The purpose of the function is to create a suitable protrusion and good appearance in the weld. It also improves the controllability of weld pool in position welding.
30. Creep start, MIG/MAG, 1-MIG, PulsedMIG: Creep start is used for smooth start for example in welding with high wire feed speeds. In start the wire feed speed is lower than set value until the wire touches the weld piece and current starts flowing. Note! If the wire does not touch the weld piece within 0.6 seconds, wire feed speed goes over to set value. When needed you can change lower wire feed speed level on creep start and also wire feed speed upslope with SETUP functions.
31. Hot start, spot weld timer: Hot start function is used to reduce start faults in welding of well heat conductive materials
such as aluminium. Hot start is in use with 1-MIG and PulsedMIG. In 4T mode hot start the time is set with switch function (see picture), in 2T mode the time is set with the parameter of SETUP function. Hot start level can be changed with SETUP function when needed.
Spot weld timer is normally switched off. The timer is switched on with SETUP function
by setting the spot weld time as different from zero, and correspondingly switched off by setting the spot weld time as zero. Spot weld time is switched on with 2T switch function, in which case hot start is selected (the LED is on) but not in use when spot weld time is over zero. Hot start has to be selected in order to use spot weld. Current during spot weld time is the same as hot start current.
32. Crater filling, 1-MIG and PulsedMIG: Crater filling is used to reduce weld defects caused by end crater. With 4T switch function
at the weld end you get, during pressing gun’s start switch, a steplessly decreasing welding power, which fills end crater in a controlled way. With 2T mode the decreasing time is cons­tant. Decreasing speed of welding power and decreasing time can be changed with SETUP function when needed.
33. Selecting key for MIG auxiliary functions. Auxiliary functions can be switched on independently from each other, either together or
separately both with 4T and 2T.
Note! With longer creep start times creep start and hot start cannot be switched on at the
same time.

3.9. TESTING THE GAS FEED
By pressing the gas-feed test key, you can make the shielding gas flow without star­ting the power source or the wire feed. This enables the measuring of the gas flow with an external measuring device.
The gas flow will cease when you press the same key again or the gun trigger. If you do not press the key again, gas flow will cease automatically in 20 seconds.

3.10. MXE MEMORY CHANNELS, MEMORY
The MXE panel has 20 memory channels into which you can be store MIG/MAG, 1-MIG and PulsedMIG welding situations. Control potentiometer values as well as function selections are stored into memory. You cannot store MMA welding values into memory channels.
3.10.1. Following parameters are stored into memory
– Wire feed speed and welding voltage (MIG/MAG) – Welding power and arc length (1-MIG, PulsedMIG) – Synergic curve selections (1-MIG, PulsedMIG) – MIG dynamics (MIG/MAG, 1-MIG) – MIG 2T / MIG 4T selections – Creep start selection – Hot start and crater filling selections (1-MIG, PulsedMIG) – FACTORY / USER parameter selections
Operation modes of memory function are selected with key 37. Operation modes are OFF (34): normal welding without memory functions. ON (35): welding with welding values stored into memory channels. SET (36): mode where you can store welding values into memory channels by pressing on memory key SAVE (41). Memory channel is selected by CH- (38) and CH+ (39) keys. Number of selected channel is displayed in screen 40.
In SET mode (36) blinking indicator LED shows that no welding values are stored into the channel in question. When needed, you can clear the memory channel by simultaneous pressing (42) of keys for mode selection (37) and CH- (38). Before clearing you can check the values stored into channel by going over for a moment to ON state (35).
In ON state you can select only those channels with stored values. Fine control of stored chan­nels for welding voltage (MIG/MAG) or for arc length (1-MIG, PulsedMIG) is made from potentiometer 43. During welding you can change channels if the MIG process (MIG, 1-MIG, PulsedMIG) remains the same. Also 1-MIG and PulsedMIG synergic curve selection should be the same in the channels in question.
Selection of memory channels 1-5 can be transferred to remote control unit R20, connected to the PROMIG or to gun remote control unit RMT10 of the PMT MIG gun. Change-over to remote control of channels is made in ON state by simultaneous pressing (44) of CH+ (39) and control selection (27) keys. When using R20 control unit both channel selection and fine control are transferred to potentiometers of the control unit. When using RMT10 control unit the chan­nel selection is transferred to RMT10 and fine control remains in the panel potentiometer (43). Remote selection of memory channels is indicated by blinking remote control or gun remote control indicator LEDs. Exit from remote control in the same way by simultaneous pressing (44). You can go directly from OFF to SET mode by simultaneous pressing (45) of keys 37 and 39 (= direct storing of currently welded values into memory). You can go directly from ON to OFF mode by simultaneous pressing (42) of keys 37 and 38.

3.11. PRESETTINGS OF WELDING PARAMETERS, SETUP
With SETUP function the user can change such parameters of MIG, 1-MIG and PulsedMIG, for which there is no own control on the panel. Such parameters are for example pre-, post gas time and hot start. Parameters are different for every MIG process, which means that you can set independently your own parameters for MIG, 1-MIG and PulsedMIG. SETUP keys are marked with blue colour.
Modes of SETUP function:
a) FACTORY mode: Use the so called factory settings of welding parameters. b) USER mode: Use welding parameters changed by the user. c) SETUP change mode: Mode in which parameters are changed and stored into memory.
