From Miller to You

Thank you and congratulations on choosing Miller. Now you can get
the job done and get it done right. We know you don’t have time to do
it any other way.

That’s why when Niels Miller first started building arc welders in 1929,
he made sure his products offered long-lasting value and superior
quality. Like you, his customers couldn’t afford anything less. Miller
products had to be more than the best they could be. They had to be the
best you could buy.

Today, the people that build and sell Miller products continue the
tradition. They’re just as committed to providing equipment and service
that meets the high standards of quality and value established in 1929.

This Owner’s Manual is designed to help you get the most out of your
Miller products. Please take time to read the Safety precautions. They
will help you protect yourself against potential hazards on the worksite.

We’ve made installation and operation quick
and easy. With Miller you can count on years
of reliable service with proper maintenance.
And if for some reason the unit needs repair,
there’s a Troubleshooting section that will
help you figure out what the problem is. The

. Means “Note”; not safety related.

1-2. Arc Welding Hazards

Y The symbols shown below are used throughout this manual to

call attention to and identify possible hazards. When you see
the symbol, watch out, and follow the related instructions to
avoid the hazard. The safety information given below is only
a summary of the more complete safety information found in
the Safety Standards listed in Section 1-5. Read and follow all
Safety Standards.

Y Only qualified persons should install, operate, maintain, and

repair this unit.

Y During operation, keep everybody, especially children, away.

ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.

Touching live electrical parts can cause fatal shocks
or severe burns. The electrode and work circuit is
electrically live whenever the output is on. The input

live when power is on. In semiautomatic or automatic wire welding, the
wire, wire reel, drive roll housing, and all metal parts touching the
welding wire are electrically live. Incorrectly installed or improperly
grounded equipment is a hazard.

D Do not touch live electrical parts.
D Wear dry, hole-free insulating gloves and body protection.
D Insulate yourself from work and ground using dry insulating mats

or covers big enough to prevent any physical contact with the work
or ground.

D Do not use AC output in damp areas, if movement is confined, or if

there is a danger of falling.

D Use AC output ONLY if required for the welding process.
D If AC output is required, use remote output control if present on

unit.

D Additional safety precautions are required when any of the follow-

ing electrically hazardous conditions are present: in damp
locations or while wearing wet clothing; on metal structures such
as floors, gratings, or scaffolds; when in cramped positions such
as sitting, kneeling, or lying; or when there is a high risk of unavoid­able or accidental contact with the workpiece or ground. For these
conditions, use the following equipment in order presented: 1) a
semiautomatic DC constant voltage (wire) welder, 2) a DC manual
(stick) welder, or 3) an AC welder with reduced open-circuit volt­age. In most situations, use of a DC, constant voltage wire welder
is recommended. And, do not work alone!

D Disconnect input power or stop engine before installing or

servicing this equipment. Lockout/tagout input power according to
OSHA 29 CFR 1910.147 (see Safety Standards).

D Properly install and ground this equipment according to its

Owner’s Manual and national, state, and local codes.

D Always verify the supply ground − check and be sure that input

power cord ground wire is properly connected to ground terminal in
disconnect box or that cord plug is connected to a properly
grounded receptacle outlet.

D When making input connections, attach proper grounding conduc-

tor first − double-check connections.

D Frequently inspect input power cord for damage or bare wiring −

replace cord immediately if damaged − bare wiring can kill.

power circuit and machine internal circuits are also

This group of symbols means Warning! Watch Out! possible
ELECTRIC SHOCK, MOVING PARTS, and HOT PARTS hazards.
Consult symbols and related instructions below for necessary actions
to avoid the hazards.

D Turn off all equipment when not in use.
D Do not use worn, damaged, undersized, or poorly spliced cables.
D Do not drape cables over your body.
D If earth grounding of the workpiece is required, ground it directly

with a separate cable.

D Do not touch electrode if you are in contact with the work, ground,

or another electrode from a different machine.

D Do not touch electrode holders connected to two welding ma-

chines at the same time since double open-circuit voltage will be
present.

D Use only well-maintained equipment. Repair or replace damaged

parts at once. Maintain unit according to manual.

D Wear a safety harness if working above floor level.
D Keep all panels and covers securely in place.
D Clamp work cable with good metal-to-metal contact to workpiece

or worktable as near the weld as practical.

D Insulate work clamp when not connected to workpiece to prevent

contact with any metal object.

D Do not connect more than one electrode or work cable to any

single weld output terminal.

SIGNIFICANT DC VOLTAGE exists in inverter-type
welding power sources after removal of input
power.

D Turn Off inverter, disconnect input power, and discharge input

capacitors according to instructions in Maintenance Section
before touching any parts.

FUMES AND GASES can be hazardous.

Welding produces fumes and gases. Breathing
these fumes and gases can be hazardous to your
health.

D Keep your head out of the fumes. Do not breathe the fumes.
D If inside, ventilate the area and/or use local forced ventilation at the

arc to remove welding fumes and gases.

D If ventilation is poor, wear an approved air-supplied respirator.
D Read and understand the Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDSs)

and the manufacturer’s instructions for metals, consumables,
coatings, cleaners, and degreasers.

D Work in a confined space only if it is well ventilated, or while

wearing an air-supplied respirator. Always have a trained watch­person nearby. Welding fumes and gases can displace air and
lower the oxygen level causing injury or death. Be sure the breath­ing air is safe.

D Do not weld in locations near degreasing, cleaning, or spraying op-

erations. The heat and rays of the arc can react with vapors to form
highly toxic and irritating gases.

D Do not weld on coated metals, such as galvanized, lead, or

cadmium plated steel, unless the coating is removed from the weld
area, the area is well ventilated, and while wearing an air-supplied
respirator. The coatings and any metals containing these elements
can give off toxic fumes if welded.

OM-227 153 Page 1

ARC RAYS can burn eyes and skin.

BUILDUP OF GAS can injure or kill.

Arc rays from the welding process produce intense
visible and invisible (ultraviolet and infrared) rays
that can burn eyes and skin. Sparks fly off from the
weld.

D Wear an approved welding helmet fitted with a proper shade of fil-

ter lenses to protect your face and eyes when welding or watching
(see ANSI Z49.1 and Z87.1 listed in Safety Standards).

D Wear approved safety glasses with side shields under your

helmet.

D Use protective screens or barriers to protect others from flash,

glare and sparks; warn others not to watch the arc.

D Wear protective clothing made from durable, flame-resistant mate-

rial (leather, heavy cotton, or wool) and foot protection.

WELDING can cause fire or explosion.

Welding on closed containers, such as tanks,
drums, or pipes, can cause them to blow up. Sparks
can fly off from the welding arc. The flying sparks, hot

burns. Accidental contact of electrode to metal objects can cause
sparks, explosion, overheating, or fire. Check and be sure the area is
safe before doing any welding.

D Remove all flammables within 35 ft (10.7 m) of the welding arc. If

this is not possible, tightly cover them with approved covers.

D Do not weld where flying sparks can strike flammable material.
D Protect yourself and others from flying sparks and hot metal.
D Be alert that welding sparks and hot materials from welding can

easily go through small cracks and openings to adjacent areas.

D Watch for fire, and keep a fire extinguisher nearby.
D Be aware that welding on a ceiling, floor, bulkhead, or partition can

cause fire on the hidden side.

D Do not weld on closed containers such as tanks, drums, or pipes,

unless they are properly prepared according to AWS F4.1 (see
Safety Standards).

D Connect work cable to the work as close to the welding area as

practical to prevent welding current from traveling long, possibly
unknown paths and causing electric shock, sparks, and fire
hazards.

D Do not use welder to thaw frozen pipes.
D Remove stick electrode from holder or cut off welding wire at

contact tip when not in use.

D Wear oil-free protective garments such as leather gloves, heavy

shirt, cuffless trousers, high shoes, and a cap.

D Remove any combustibles, such as a butane lighter or matches,

from your person before doing any welding.

Considerations About Welding And The Effects Of Low Frequency
Electric And Magnetic Fields

Welding current, as it flows through welding cables, will cause electro­magnetic fields. There has been and still is some concern about such
fields. However, after examining more than 500 studies spanning 17
years of research, a special blue ribbon committee of the National
Research Council concluded that: “The body of evidence, in the
committee’s judgment, has not demonstrated that exposure to power­frequency electric and magnetic fields is a human-health hazard.”
However, studies are still going forth and evidence continues to be
examined. Until the final conclusions of the research are reached, you
may wish to minimize your exposure to electromagnetic fields when
welding or cutting.

To reduce magnetic fields in the workplace, use the following
procedures:

D Arrêter les convertisseurs, débrancher le courant électrique et

décharger les condensateurs d’alimentation selon les instructions indi­quées dans la partie Entretien avant de toucher les pièces.

LES FUMÉES ET LES GAZ peuvent
être dangereux.

Le soudage génère des fumées et des gaz. Leur
inhalation peut être dangereuse pour la santé.

D Ne pas mettre sa tête au-dessus des vapeurs. Ne pas respirer ces va-

peurs.

D À l’intérieur, ventiler la zone et/ou utiliser une ventilation forcée au niveau de

l’arc pour l’évacuation des fumées et des gaz de soudage.

D Si la ventilation est médiocre, porter un respirateur anti-vapeurs approu-

vé.

D Lire et comprendre les spécifications de sécurité des matériaux (MSDS) et

les instructions du fabricant concernant les métaux, les consommables, les
revêtements, les nettoyants et les dégraisseurs.

D Travailler dans un espace fermé seulement s’il est bien ventilé ou en

portant un respirateur à alimentation d’air. Demander toujours à un sur­veillant dûment formé de se tenir à proximité. Des fumées et des gaz de
soudage peuvent déplacer l’air et abaisser le niveau d’oxygène provo­quant des blessures ou des accidents mortels. S’assurer que l’air de
respiration ne présente aucun danger.

D Ne pas souder dans des endroits situés à proximité d’opérations de dé-

graissage, de nettoyage ou de pulvérisation. La chaleur et les rayons de
l’arc peuvent réagir en présence de vapeurs et former des gaz haute­ment toxiques et irritants.

D Ne pas souder des métaux munis d’un revêtement, tels que l’acier gal-

vanisé, plaqué en plomb ou au cadmium à moins que le revêtement n’ait
été enlevé dans la zone de soudure, que l’endroit soit bien ventilé et en
portant un respirateur à alimentation d’air. Les revêtements et tous les
métaux renfermant ces éléments peuvent dégager des fumées toxi­ques en cas de soudage.

Considérations sur le soudage et les effets de basse fréquence et des
champs magnétiques et électriques.

Le courant de soudage, pendant son passage dans les câbles de souda­ge, causera des champs électromagnétiques. Il y a eu et il y a encore un
certain souci à propos de tels champs. Cependant, après avoir examiné
plus de 500 études qui ont été faites pendant une période de recherche
de 17 ans, un comité spécial ruban bleu du National Research Council a
conclu : « L’accumulation de preuves, suivant le jugement du comité, n’a
pas démontré que l’exposition aux champs magnétiques et champs élec­triques à haute fréquence représente un risque à la santé humaine ».
Toutefois, des études sont toujours en cours et les preuves continuent à
être examinées. En attendant que les conclusions finales de la recherche
soient établies, il vous serait souhaitable de réduire votre exposition aux
champs électromagnétiques pendant le soudage ou le coupage.

Pour réduire les champs magnétiques sur le poste de travail, appliquer

Arc Length Distance from end of wire electrode to workpiece.
Crater Allows setting of voltage/arc adjust, wire feed rate, and time value for arc ends (which is only available in the

Gas Type Selection of shielding gas being used in application.
Inductance In short circuit GMAW welding, an increase in inductance will decrease the number of short circuit transfers per

MIG CV weld process with individual settings of voltage and wire speed.
Process A selection made for MIG, Pulse, Pro-pulse, RMD-Pro, Stick, Carbon Arc, Flux Core (FCAW), and Lift-TIG.
Process Set Up Selection procedure for entering program.
Program Eight active slots for selection of various processes, wire types, and parameters.
Program Load Enters selected program information (process, wire type, gas, etc.) into program slot (1-8).
Pulse Conventional pulse program using peak, background, pulse width, frequency, and peak voltage as factory

RMD-Pro RMD-Pro refers to Regulated Metal Deposition. A precisely controlled short-circuit transfer. Benefits of RMD-

Sharp Arc In pulse and Pro-pulse mode this adjustment changes the arc cone by adjusting the preprogrammed factory

Start Provides voltage/arc adjust, wire feed rate, and time value for modified arc starts (which is only adjustable with

Synergic Synergic refers to the unit’s ability to use preprogrammed pulse parameters to determine the actual pulse

Volts Preset voltage in MIG mode at idle, actual voltage while welding, and 3 seconds hold value at end of weld.
Wire Type Selection of wire type by alloys and classification.
WFS Term used to represent wire feed speed. In MIG mode, wire feed setting is independent of voltage setting. In

Adaptive response is controlled by peak and minimum current levels. Benefits are shorter arc lengths, better
puddle control, more tolerant of tip-to-work variation, less audible noise, no arc wandering, allows weld to fill in

SECTION 19 − E-MAIL FILES

19-1. Location Of E-mail Files On PDA

E-mail File (Prog, Config, and Backup) provides a location to store individual files for sending or receiving using an
e-mail website.

The 3 e-mail locations, Prog, Config, and Backup, should only be considered as temporary storage locations. This
means these files can only be “cut”, “undeleted”, copied and pasted, and viewed using Detail File. To keep or use any of
these files, they should be moved into one of the Palm Group [i.e. Palm Prog (PP file), Palm Config (PC file), or Palm
Backup (PB file)].

Turn on PDA. Use stylus to tap PipeProMgr program (see Figure 20-1).
Tap All in upper right portion of display.
Tap e-mail Prog File.

John Smith

Figure 20-13. Selecting The HotSync Operation

If this is the first time running HotSync, a user name must be entered. Choosing a user name will affect how the user file
will appear in the PC program. Some examples of how the user appears are as follows:

If a user name is John Smith, the PC file name will be SmithJ. The Palm file selects the first six letters of the last name
and first letter of the first name. Smith is five letters long, so the Palm file selects the entire last name and the first letter
of the the first name.

If a user name is John L Smith, the PC file name will be LJ. The letter L will be considered the last name which is only a
single letter and then the first letter of the first name.

Once the HotSync process is done, the Welder Prog file, 52ST MIG, will be transferred to the PC.
To locate the transferred file, open Windows Explorer and select the path as follows:
c:\Program Files\Palm\SmithJ\Backup\M_Email_Prog1_DB.PDB
The file named M_Email_Prog1_DB.PDB contains the Welder Prog file 52ST MIG.
If the e-mail file location had been EP2, the file containing the weld program would be M_Email_Prog2_DB.PDB and

the same applies to EP3 and EP4. Remember to select the correct file name that contains the weld program to be sent
by e-mail.

If this were for a Config File the file name would be M_Email_Config_DB.PDB that contained the Config File. Also, If
this were for a Backup File the file name would be M_Email_Backup_DB.PDB that contained the Backup File.

Open the e-mail software on the PC and select M_Email_Prog1_DB.PDB as the attachment file. Select send to e−mail
the file to the desired destination.

OM-227 153 Page 77

19-3. Receiving A PDA Program By E−mail

NOTE

Files received by e−mail will be placed in the same location at the destination as it
was sent from by the source. As an example, If a Welder Prog file was sent from
EP1 in the e−mail Prog File list from the source, it will be received at EP1 in the
e−mail Prog File list at the destination. This means if a file is currently in this
location on the PDA, it will be overwritten when another file is received during the
HotSync operation. To keep or use any of these files, they should be moved into
one of the Palm Group [Palm Prog (PP file), Palm Config (PC file), or Palm Backup
(PB file)].

To receive a file by e-mail (e.g. Welder Prog File), proceed as follows:
Open the e-mail software on the PC and find the e−mail message that contains M_Email_Prog1_DB.PDB as the

attachment file sent from the source.
If the e-mail file location had been EP2, the file containing the weld program would be M_Email_Prog2_DB.PDB and

the same applies to EP3 and EP4.
If this were for a Config File the file name would be M_Email_Config_DB.PDB that contained the Config File. Also, If

this were for a Backup File the file name would be M_Email_Backup_DB.PDB that contained the Backup File.
Either double click on the attachment file or right click and select “Open With...” and open the file with palmOne Quick

Install software. A “Confirm Add” message should appear on screen indicating the file M−Email_Prog1_DB.PDB will
be placed on your handheld during the next HotSync operation.

Select OK to remove the message.
If more than one user is assigned to the palmOne Quick Install program, be sure that the correct user name for the

receiving PDA appears in the “User” selection box in the upper right hand portion of the display.
Disconnect the serial interface cable from the welding power source and connect to the serial port on the PC.
Connect the PDA and turn it on.
The HotSync operation can be performed by using different methods. Either press the Hotsync button on the serial

interface cable connector at the PDA or tap Card in the upper right hand portion of the display, tap All and tap the
HotSync program.

Miller. Therefore no compensation or reimbursement for
transportation costs of any kind will be allowed.

TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE REMEDIES
PROVIDED HEREIN ARE THE SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE

FURNISHED BY MILLER IS EXCLUDED AND DISCLAIMED
BY MILLER.

Some states in the U.S.A. do not allow limitations of how long an
implied warranty lasts, or the exclusion of incidental, indirect,
special or consequential damages, so the above limitation or
exclusion may not apply to you. This warranty provides specific
legal rights, and other rights may be available, but may vary
from state to state.

In Canada, legislation in some provinces provides for certain
additional warranties or remedies other than as stated herein,
and to the extent that they may not be waived, the limitations
and exclusions set out above may not apply. This Limited
Warranty provides specific legal rights, and other rights may be
available, but may vary from province to province.
