N/A This connection is only to be used with the plasma cutting torch. The small ringed wire con-
nects here. Unscrew the plastic thumb nut and attach the wire to the post. Reinstall the
thumb nut over the wire with finger pressure only. Do not overtighten
DINSE 25 Location of the negative terminal connection. Dinse-style.
For Stick: Work Clamp Connection. For TIG: Torch Connection.
For Plasma: Torch Connection.
9 mm Connects the shielding gas to the TIG torch. To connect: Push the torch fitting into the con-
"B" Size nector until the collar slides forward with a click. To Release: Slide the collar back and it will
automatically release. Do not turn or twist the connector.
7 Pin Connect the foot pedal or torch switch to this socket to control the welder. Only the foot
pedal or torch control connector can be plugged in at one time. If the torch has a torch
switch feature, tie the loose connector back and leave it disconnected while using the pedal.
DINSE 25 Location of the positive terminal connection. Dinse-style connector.
For Stick: Torch connection. For TIG, Plasma: Work Clamp Connection.
On/Off This function is designed to allow the user to set TIG flow rate and Plasma cutting PSI without
having to initiate an arc. When selected the solenoid valve will open and allow air/shielding
gas to flow uninterrupted. This saves consumables and adds a measure of safety while
setting the unit up by preventing accidental shock or burn while trying to make adjustments.
To use this feature, simply press the button. Depending upon which process is selected, the
shielding gas or compressed air will begin to flow from the torches when the light is lit. This
prevents the user from having to "tap" the torch to initiate post-flow to make the adjust-
ments. Be sure to turn this feature off before welding or cutting.
N/A Controls amperage while welding or cutting by using the knob to preset maximum amperage.
85 psi max Use the air pressure to measure air supply pressure for the plasma cutting process only. The
supply pressure is irrelevant while being used for TIG welding, although some pressure may regis-
55-65 psi ter while the gas is actively flowing. Supply air pressure should not exceed 85 psi from the
operating air compressor or internal leaks may develop. Adjust the operating pressure while air is
flowing. Adjust the air pressure to 55-65 psi and increase or decrease pressure from there
to achieve optimum cutting results while air is actively flowing. To adjust air pressure with
torch, briefly fire torch with post flow set to maximum. Adjust air flow while the air is still
flowing. Use air only for cutting. If a large differential in air pressure is observed (more than
10-12 psi), check for restrictions, kinks or blown connections. If all checks out ok, you may
need to use a larger diameter supply hose or compressor.
