3-6. Weld Output Terminals And Selecting Cable Sizes Y ARC WELDING can cause Electromagnetic Interference. To reduce possible interference, keep weld cables as short as possible, close together, and down low, such as on the floor. Locate welding operation 100 meters from any sensitive electronic equipment. Be sure this welding machine is installed and grounded according to this manual.
Y Use of any coolant other than those listed in the table voids the warranty on any parts that come in contact with the coolant (pump, radiator, etc.). Circuit breakers with numbers 7 and 10 are placed inside the welder on the wire feeder side as shown. Circuit Breaker 7...

SECTION 4 − OPERATION 4-1. Front Panel Controls ON/OFF Switch (I/O) Use switch to turn unit On/Off. Fan is thermostatically controlled and runs only when necessary (Fan On Demand). Water cooling is automatically con- trolled and runs only when necessary. (Cooling On Demand).
4-2. Switching On the Unit and Recalling Factory Parameters 4-3. Welding Process Selection L1 LED L2 LED L3 LED L4 LED P3 Push Button Press P3 until desired process LED illumi- nates. Values and parameters that appear on D1 and D2 are either factory default settings or last settings entered for the selected pro- cess.
4-4. Wire Type Selection in Synergic MIG or Synergic Pulsed MIG Welding L5 LED L6 LED L7 LED L8 LED P4 Push Button Press P4 until desired material LED illumi- nates. D1 and D2 will show material name only momentarily, and then return to the main display.
4-6. Gas Selection in Synergic MIG or Synergic Pulsed MIG Welding L13 LED L14 LED L15 LED L16 LED P6 Push Button Press P6 until gas LED illuminates. D1 and D2 will show gas name momentarily and 4-7. Trigger Mode Selection (TIG and STICK Only) Always check and set a trigger mode.
4-8. Setting And Using Weld Parameters From Memory (TIG and STICK Only) 4-9. Setup Push Button And Advanced Programming Press P2 to enter SET UP menu. SET UP will appear on D1 and D2 only mo- mentarily and then change to the selected process parameter values.
4-10. Preparing Unit For MIG Welding To select MIG welding process, proceed as follows: Follow safety precautions according to Section 1. Prepare unit according Section 3. Using the proper cable bundle, connect unit to the wire feeder (see Wire Feeder manual).
4-12. Selecting Synergic MIG Welding Set Synergic MIG welding process using P3 push button. In Synergic MIG mode, the operator may need to adjust welding data (wire type, wire diameter, and gas type) and only one weld parameter. Generally, wire feed speed is adjusted and the synergic process auto- matically sets appropriate weld voltage.
4-13. Selecting Synergic Pulsed MIG Welding Set Synergic Pulsed MIG welding process using P3 push button. Synergic Pulsed MIG welding is a high quality welding process that produces very little spatter. This process works well on thin metals such as stainless steel and alu- minum.
4-14. Preparing Unit For TIG Welding To select TIG welding process, proceed as follows: Follow safety precautions according to Section 1. Prepare unit according Section 3. Connect torch to the WORK connector 3 and the gas pipe to the gas connector 5. Using a cable with a proper adapter, con- nect work clamp cable to the MIG gun con- nector.
4-15. TIG Lift-Arc Welding “Touch” Do NOT Strike Like A Match! 4-16. Preparing Unit For Stick Welding To select STICK welding process, proceed as follows: Follow safety precautions according to Section 1. Prepare unit according to Section 3. Connect electrode holder to the Positive power connector 2.
SECTION 5 − MAINTENANCE & TROUBLESHOOTING 5-1. Routine Maintenance Replace Damaged Or Unreadable Labels Blow Out Inside Y Disconnect power before maintaining. 3 Months Repair Or Replace Cracked Cables 6 Months Blow Out Heat Exchanger Fins 12 Months Change Coolant (If Using MILLER Coolant) Maintain more often during severe conditions.
