  • Page 5: Section 1- Safety Cautions & Symbols

    SECTION 1- SAFETY CAUTIONS & SYMBOLS CAUTION: READ USER MANUAL Indicates any section that the user must read the manual to fully understand the machine’s characteristics to avoid any hazardous situation. ELECTRIC SHOCK Touching live electrical parts can cause fatal shocks or severe burns. The electrode and work circuit is electrically live whenever the output is on.
  • Page 6 WELDING FUMES Welding produces fumes and gases. Breathing these fumes and gases can be hazardous to your health.  Keep your head out of the fumes stream while welding. Do not breathe the fumes.  If inside, ventilate the area and/or use local forced ventilation at the welding point to remove welding fumes and gases.
  • Page 7 GASES Dangerous gases can be produced during welding, breathing these gases in can be hazardous to your health.  Shut off shielding gas supply when not in use.  Always ventilate confined spaces or use approved air-supplied respirator.  Do not weld in locations near degreasing, cleaning, or spraying operations. The heat and rays of the arc can react with vapors to form highly toxic and irritating gases.
  • Page 8 ESD- ELECTRIC STATIC DISCHARGE An electric static charge can be created during welding and discharged immediately after into any items touched by the welder after welding.  Put on grounded wrist strap BEFORE handling boards or parts.  Use proper static-proof bags and boxes to store, move, or ship PC boards. MOVING PARTS A number of moving parts may be in typical welding machines such as rollers and fans.

  • Page 10 OVERVIEW PRODUCT & DESIGN  This is a digital inverter DC pulse TIG welding machine with excellent performance characteristics and advanced technology typically only found on much larger machines.  It has various welding functions such as SMAW, DC TIG, pulsed TIG and TIG spot welding (DC or pulsed) allowing the operator to do a very thin to thick variety of metals (will not weld aluminum).

  • Page 11: Section 3- Operation Of Equipment

    SECTION 3- OPERATION OF EQUIPMENT OPERATION  After being installed according to the prescribed method, switch the power to on (rear panel) and the POWER LED will light and the fan will turn on.  (A) Using the push button switch on the top right of the front panel, choose the welding process desired (Tig or Stick) (B) this can only be changed after the led indicator beside the switch has been lit after the machine has been turned on for 3-5 seconds the LED indicator has the symbol of a lightning bolt beside it.
  • Page 12 TIG OPERATION  (A) Insert the welding torch into the (-) output socket on the front panel of the machine, and tighten it clockwise. (B) Connect the electrical plug from the torch to the matching electrical socket on the front of the machine panel.
  • Page 13 TIG SETTINGS This selection will require the welder to hold the “start” button on the torch all the time they wish to be welding, once the button is released the welding is stopped and the post gas begins. This selection will allow the welder to push the “start” button on the torch then let go of the button and have continuous welding, push the button a second time to stop the welding and start the post gas.
  • Page 14 ERROR CHART E-1: Indicates that an overcurrent has occurred. Restart the machine, and welding can be continued. E-2: Indicates that the main voltage is overly low, welding can be recovered when the main voltage returns into normal range. E-3: Indicates that the main circuit has been overheated, shutting down the machine.
