Page 12: Generator Recommendations
Rev. A, July 2018 Generator Recommendations When operating the Pro-XMP using house power from a building circuit use the appropriate plug and power cord configuration. When in-field generators are used they must be rated for a minimum of 5,000 watts, however a rating of 6,500 watts or more is highly recommended in order to obtain the best welder performance and temperature control. -
Page 13: Recommended Temperature Settings
These factors make it impractical to create a chart that can universally cover all these varying conditions: Therefore, we recommend contacting DEMTECH Services, Inc. or your authorized DEMTECH distributor where the product was purchased to receive guidance for appropriate settings. -
Page 14: Welder Set-Up & Operation
Rev. A, July 2018 8 Welder Set-Up & Operation The initial set-up of the Pro-XMP is by far the most critical aspect for proper welder operation. Proper set-up not only leads to quality welding results but also minimizes wear and tear on the welder itself. - Page 15 Rev. A, July 2018 Figure 8.1 The welder contains a cold start protection feature that prevents operation of the drill motor before the welder has reached the proper operating temperature. To prepare the welder for operation set the Pre-Heat and Plastic Heat temperatures. These settings will vary depending on the material to be welded and the ambient environment.

Page 16: Start A Weld
Rev. A, July 2018 Start a Weld Once the welder has stabilized at the operating temperature insert the end of the welding rod into the feed port while simultaneously powering the drill motor (see Figure 8.2). Once the welding rod has been started it will continue to self-feed as you weld. The welder drill motor should only be operated when welding rod is being continuously fed into the welder and should never be run dry. -
Page 17: During A Weld
Rev. A, July 2018 During a Weld Keep the welding rod being fed into the welder clean and dry. Foreign material such as dust, dirt, sand and water droplets introduced into the feed port can cause premature wear to the welder. For long welds the Pro-XMP drill motor has a locking pin which allows you to lock the drill motor trigger switch in the ON position. -
Page 18: Checking The Output Temperature
Rev. A, July 2018 Checking the Output Temperature The temperatures of the extruded material and pre-heat air stream should be verified at regular intervals while performing welds over an extended period. An appropriate high- speed electronic temperature meter with matching temperature probes must be used when performing these measurements. -

Rev. A, July 2018 Changing the Welding Shoe Make sure to turn off the Pre-Heat and Plastic Heat, allow the extruder to cool to room temperature then remove the ~ (AC) line cord from the power outlet before attempting to service the equipment. - Page 20 Rev. A, July 2018 b. Remove the Shoe Assembly from the Nozzle, part number 605-017. Due to melted plastic material buildup removal may require strong twisting clockwise-to- counterclockwise, wiggling from side-to-side and substantial pulling force to remove (see Figure 8.5).
