2 PUTTING INTO OPERATION

2.1 Connecting to the electric network

Check if the voltage stated on the device label complies with rated voltage of alternate volta­ge of your electric network.

The device can be connected to electric socket equipped with protective contact installed by
authorized electrician. Current circuit of socket must be protected with 16Amp melting safety
fuse or circuit breaker.

The device is delivered without plug. For connections can be used only plugs and sockets
according to CEE standard.

2.2 Connecting the MIG/MAG torch

For torch connecting is used EURO Standard torch connector.
Please, tighten the connector well to eliminate the conduction losses. A loose connection
can cause damage of the machine and torch.

When the feeding wheel is set up, you can see on the front side of wheel the assigned
welding wire diameter (value is in mm).

2.4 Connecting the pressure bottle containing protective gas

Make sure You are using right gas according welded material (see part 3.3.5)

Set the pressure bottle to the stand intended for it and fasten it by belt to the holder on the
back side of the device. Open a cover and after that open the bottle valve for a short time in
order that the gas flows away from your body. Screw a reduction valve on the pressure
