    5-1. Welding Output Control (1) CV/CC The equipment incorporates CV (Constant Voltage) and CC (Constant Current) characteristic feature. Connecting a wire feeder and then turning the CC/CV Selector Switch to [CV-WIRE], semi-automatic welding such as MIG, MAG, SS, etc. is available to perform.
  • Page 11: Vrd

    5-2. VRD T he equipment incorporates VRD ( Voltage Reduction Device ) feature, for the purpose of protecting an operator from electric shock with welding current. When the VRD Switch is turned to [ON], the voltage changes to 35V or lower during no welding period.
  • Page 12: Operation Mode Selector

    (5) Circuit Protector for Wire Feeder When the over current (more than SA) is flown into 14-Pin Connector for wire feeder, the Circuit Protector will be activated to shut off the current. <Caution> • Resolve the over current issue to proceed the necessary maintenance when the Circuit Protector was activated, with reset the trip button.
  • Page 13: Monitor Lamp

    (2) AC Meter The meter displays the 3-Phase voltage (U-V) and the frequency in AC output. <Caution> • While Operation Mode Selector Switch is [GEN. WELDER] or [G EN. ONLY], AC Meter displays 3-Phase voltage and frequency. When the Operation Mode Selector Switch is [WELDER ONLY], AC Meter display will goes off.
  • Page 14 (2) Battery Charge Monitor Lamp When the battery turns unable to be charged during operation, the battery charge monitor lamp will flash and the automatic shutoff will be engaged. In the event this occurs, consult with the authorized distributor or our engineering section.
  • Page 15: Earth Leakage Relay

    5-7. Earth Leakage Relay � Danger : Electric Shock • Ground every grounding terminal to the earth as set out in the manual. If even one of all is unconnected by mistake or accident, it will be much more dangerous for human body than the NO RELAY case, because leaking current inevitably goes through the bod y .
  • Page 16: Auto Idle Feature

    (3) The Earth Leakage Relay has activated Caution : Electric Shock/ Injuries • Be sure to disconnect all the loads to the equipment when turning the breakers ON again, after the earth leakage relay has activated. When the earth leakage relay has activated, the ELCB (lever) turns to [OFF]. In the case, stop the engine promptly and find the leakage point to repair.
  • Page 17: Initialization And Pre-Check

    Caution : Fire · Burns · Injuries • When checking engine, always stop the engine, and keep away from fire. Wait until the engine cools down, before performing any checks. 6-1. Checking Engine Oil When checking for engine oil, be sure to keep the equipment leveled, and insert the oil gauge all the way in.
