NOTE 12:
Wide safety margins provided by the design allow the Power Source will withstand short term overloads without
failure. The Welding Setup Data values should be used as a guide only then fine tune one or more of the Welding Setup Data
values to suit the welding application.
Before connecting the welding cables make sure the Input Power Supply is switched off. Remove any packaging ma-
terial prior to use. Do not block the air vents at the front or rear of the Power Source.

OPERATION
1 Switch the Power Switch (located on the rear panel)
to OFF position.
2 Connect the leads as follows:
a. Earth Clamp Lead to the Negative Output Termi-
nal for MIG or Positive Output Terminal for FCAW
b. MIG Gun Lead to the MIG Gun Adaptor.
c. 8 Pin Plug to 8 pin socket
d. Gas Hose to the Gas Input on rear panel then turn
ON the shielding gas.
DO NOT over tighten the gas fittings.
3 Plug the Power Source into Input Supply Voltage.
4 Switch the Mains Power Supply ON & Power Switch
(located on the rear panel) ON. This will immediately
energize the Power Source.
5 Rotate Knob then PUSH to SELECT
a.
Welding Mode Selection
b.
Welding Type Selection
to 2T or 4T
6 Set Switch to MIG GUN & LINK to MIG or FCAW
located behind the Wirefeed Compartment Door.
7 Use Set Up Chart located on the door using Material,
Wire Type/Diameter, Shield Gas and Material Thick-
ness to set:
a. Wire Speed (Inch/Min
b. Voltage (V).
8 Commence welding.
9 If needed, adjust the Voltage ''V'' Control Knob.
10 If needed, adjust arc amperage by changing Wire
Speed ''Inch/Min
'' to obtain the welding condi-
tion required.
11 If needed, adjust the Inductance Control Knob to fine
tune the welding arc.
12 Leave Power Switch ON for 3 minutes to cool down
internal components after welding completed.
