MACHINE DESCRIPTION
Welding machine is a rectifier adopting the most advanced inv erter te chn ol ogy.
The development of welding equipment benefits from the appearance of the inverter power supply theory and
components. Inverter arc welding power source utilizes high-power component MOSFET to transfer 50/60Hz frequency
up to 100 KHz, then reduce the voltage and comm utate, and output hig h-po wer vo ltage via PWM tec hnolo g y. Because of
the great reduce of the main transformer’s weight and volume; the efficiency increases by 30%. The appearance of
inverter welding equipment is considered to be a revolution for welding industry.
Welding power source can offer stronger, more concentrated and more stable arc. When stick and workpiece get short,
its response will be quicker. It means that it is easier to design into welding machine with different dynamic characteristics,
and it even can be adjusted for specialty to make arc softer or harder.
TIG welding machine is easy for arc initi ation and has the functions of arc initiation current, arc stop current , welding
current, basic value current, current ascending time, current desc ending time, gas delay time, continuous adjustment.
What’s more, pulse frequency and pulse duty can also be adjusted independently. It has the characteristics of automatic
control of arc initiation, arc stop and stable arc, which make the best result for shape and inner quality of the welding
surface. Its exclusive design is specially suitable for bicycle industry.
The machine can be for multi-use, and can weld stainless st eel, car bon s teel, cop per and other col or metal, and als o ca n
use for traditional electric welding. Its transfer efficiency is above 85%.
Thanks for purchasing our products and looking forward to your precious advice, we will try our best to perfect our
products and service.

OPERATION INSTRUCTION
TIG Welding Description
1. Turn on the power switch of fr ont p anel, digit al curren t meter is norm al, fan be gins to ru n.
2. Turn on argon switch, and adjust gas pressure to rated value.(refer to flow table).
3. Press switch of torch, electromagnetic valve is started. You will hear the sound of electricity-releasing HF sparkle and
at the same time, argon gets out the torch. NOTES: If the first time welding, you should press switch for a few seconds before weld ing, until all the air in the gas passage is removed, and then start to w eld. When you stop welding, argon will still flow out for a few seconds, Which is desi gned to guarantee that weld spot is protected before cooling down. So when the electric arc stops, keep the welding position for a while and then move the torch.
4. Choose the “pulse alter switch” according to the need. When the switch is on the down position, there is no pulse,
while between down and up position, there is middle frequency pulse (200Hz), while on the up position, there is low frequency pulse 2Hz).
5. Adjust the switch of the Current Down Slope Adjustment according to the request of the work piece and welding.
6. Set suitable weld ing current according to the thickness of work pi ece and process demand.
7. Keep 2-4mm space between tungsten pole and work piece, press torch control switch, between electrode and work
piece HF electricity is released; After arc initiation, HF sparkle disappears soon and can start to work.
Sticking Description
1. Turn on the power switch on the front panel, and the fan begins to work.
2. Make sure function switch of front panel is on “down” position that is sticking. When welding jaw nips welding rod, it
begins to work.
3. According to work piece’s thickness, position, craftw ork state, choose suitable welding current.
WARNING:
It is forbidden to pull out or put in the cable or connector during the process of welding, which will
threat life safety and damage the machine.

NOTES OR PREVENTIVE MEASURES
1. Environment
1 The machine can perform in environment where conditions are dry with a dampness level of max 90%. 2 Ambient temperature is between -10 to 40 degrees centigrade. 3 Avoid welding in sunshine or drippings. Do not let water enter the gas 4 Avoid welding in dust area or the environment with corrosive gas. 5 Avoid gas welding in the environment with strong airflow.
2. Safety norms
Our welding machine has installed protection circuit of over voltage, over current and over heat. When voltage, output current and temperature of machine are exceeding the rate standard, welding machine will stop working automatically. Because that will be d amage to welding machine, user must pay attention to following.
1) The working area is adequately ventilated
Our welding machine is powerful machine, when it is being operated, it generated by high currents, and natural wind can’t be satisfied with machine cool demands. So there is a fan in inter-machine to cool down machine. Make sure the intake is not in block or covered, it is 0.3 meter from welding machine to objects of environment. User should make sure the working area is adequately ventilated. It is important for the performance and the longevity of the machine.
2) Do not over load
The operator should remember to watch the max duty current (Response to the selected duty cycle).Keep welding current is not exceed max duty cycle current. Over-loa d cu rre nt will dam a ge and burn up machine.
3) No over voltage
Power voltage can be found in diagram of main technical data. Automatic compensation circuit of voltage will assure that welding current keeps in allowable range. If po wer voltage is exceeding allowable range li mited, it is damaged to components of machine. The operator should understand this situation and take preventive measures.
4) There is a grounding screw behind welding machine, with a grounding marker on it. Before operation, welding crust must be grounded reliable with cable which section is over 6 square millimeter, in order to prevent from static electricity, and accidents because of electricity leaking.
5) If welding time is exceeded duty cycle limited, welding machine will stop working for protection. Because machine is overheated, temperature control switch is on “ON’’ position and the indicator light is red. In this situation, you don’t have to pull the plug, in order to let the fan cool the machine. When the indicator light is off, and the temperature goes down to the standard range, it can weld again.

QUESTIONS TO BE RUN INTO DURING WELDING
Fittings, welding materials, environment factor, supply powers maybe have something to do with welding. User must try to improve welding environment.
A. Black welding spot:
——Welding spot is not prevented from oxidizing .User may check as following:
1. Make sure the valve of argon cylinder is opened and its pressure is enough. Argon cylinder must be filled up to enough pressure again if pressure of cylinder is below 0.5Mpa.
2. Check if the flow meter is opened and has enough flow .User can choos e different flow according to welding current in order to save gas .But too small flow maybe cause black welding spot because prev entive gas is too short to cover welding spot .We suggest that flow of argon must be kept min 3L/min.
3. Check if torch is in block.
4. If gas circuit is not air-tight or gas is not pure can lower welding quality.
5. If air is flowing powerfully in welding environment, that can lower welding quality.
B. Arc-striking is difficult and easy to pause:
1. Make sure quality of tungsten electrode is high.
2. Grind end of the tungsten electrode to taper. If tungsten electrode is not grinded, that will be difficult to strike arc and cause unstable arc.
C. Output current not to rated value:
When power voltage departs from the rated value, it will make the output current not matc hed wit h rat ed value; When voltage is lower than rated value, the max output may lower than rated value.
D. Current is not stabilizing when machine is being operated:
It has something with factors as followin g:
1. Electric wire net voltage has been changed.
2. There is harmful interference from electric wire net or other equipment.
E. When use MMA welding, too much spatter:
1. Maybe current is too big and stick’s diameter is too small.
2. Output terminal polarity connection is wrong, it should ap ply the opposite polarity at the normal technique, which means that the stick should be connected with the negative polarity of power source, and work piece should be connected with the positive pola rity. So please change the polarity.

MAINTENANCE
WARNING
Power must be turned off for all checking and maintenance, before opening the housing, make sure
the power plug is disconnected.
1. Remove dust by dry and clean compressed air regularly, if welding machine is operated in environment w here is
polluted with smokes and polluted air, the machi ne need remove dust every month.
2. Pressure of compressed air must be inside the reasonable arrangement in order to prevent damaging to small
components of inner-machine.
3. Check inter circuit of welding machi ne regularly and make sure the cable .Circuit is connected correctly and
connectors are connected tightly (especially insert connector and components). If scale and loose are found, please give a good polish to them, then connect them again tightly.
4. Avoid water and steam enter into inner-ma chi ne, if they enter into machine, please dry inner-machine then check
insulation of machine.
5. If welding machine will not be operated for long time, it must be put into packing box and stored in dry environment.
NOTES BEFORE CHECKING
WARNING!
Blind experiment and careless repair may lead to more problems and make formal check and repair more difficult. When the machine is electrified, the bared parts contain life-threatening voltage. Any direct and indirect touch will cause electric shock, and severe electric shock will lead to death.
WARNING
Connected welding machine to dynamotor di rectly will damage machine. The heavy voltage pulse which is produced by dynamotor will burn out machine when machine connected to dynamotor, only can use asynchronous dynamoto r whose frequency and voltage both are steady. Because of connecting welding machine to dynamotor directly lead to damage and malfunction, which is not in guarantee.
