TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

1.1 DESCRIPTION
The system consists of a modern direct current generator for the
welding of metals, developed via application of the inverter. This
special technology allows for the construction of compact light
weight generators with high performance. l'ts adjust ability, ef-
feciency and energy consumption make it an excellent work tool
suitable for coated electrode and GTAW (TIG) welding.

1.3 DUTY CYCLE AND OVERHEATING
Duty cycle is the percentage of 10 minutes at 40°C ambient tem-
perature that the unit can weld at its rated output without overheat-
ing. If the unit overheats, the output stops and the over
temperature light comes On. To correct the situation, wait fifteen
minutes for unit to cool. Reduce amperage, voltage or duty cycle
before starting to weld again (See page IV - VI).
1.4 VOLT - AMPERE CURVES
Volt-ampere curves show the maximum voltage and amperage
output capabilities of the welding power source. Curves of other
settings fall under curves shown (See page IV - VI).

INSTALLATION

IMPORTANT: BEFORE CONNECTING, PREPARING OR US-
ING EQUIPMENT, READ SAFETY PRECAUTIONS.
2.1 CONNECTING THE POWER SOURCE TO THE MAINS
ELECTRICITY SUPPLY.
Serious damage to the equipment may result if the power source
is switched off during welding operations.
Check that the power socket is equipped with the fuse indicated in
the features label on the power source. All power source models

are designed to compensate power supply variations. For varia-
tions of ±10%, a welding current variation of ±0.2% is created.

WISHED MAIN SUPPLY.
ON - OFF SWITCH: This switch has two positions: I
and 0.
the 230V 50/60 Hz socket can supply sufficient power re-
quired for welding, see label on welder.
the socket supplies undistorted voltage RMS between 180
and 280 V.
the socket supplies peak voltage between 230 and 420 V.
the socket supplies alternate voltage with a frequency be-
tween 50 and 60 Hz.
HANDLING AND TRANSPORTING THE POWER
SOURCE
The operations mentioned above can be operated by the
handle on the power source.
Always disconnect the power source and accessories from
main supply before lifting or handling operations.
Do not drag, pull or lift equipment by the cables.
SELECTING A LOCATION
The operator must have unobstructed access to controls and
equipment connections.
Use rating plate to determine input power needs.
Do not position equipment in confined, closed places. Venti-
lation of the power source is extremely important. Avoid
dusty or dirty locations, where dust or other objects could be
aspirated by the system.
Equipment (Including connecting leads) must not obstruct
corridors or work activities of other personnel.
Position the power source securely to avoid falling or over-
turning. Bear in mind the risk of falling of equipment situated
in overhead positions.
