Safety Guidelines These general safety norms cover both arc welding machines and plasma cutting machines unless otherwise noted. The equipment must only be used for the purpose it was designed for. Using it in any other way could result in damage or injury and in breach of the safety rules. Only suitably trained and competent persons should use the equipment.

Wear suitable protective flame resistant clothing. The sparks and spatter from welding, hot work pieces, and hot equipment can cause fires and burns. Welding on closed containers, such as tanks, drums, or pipes, can cause them to explode. Accidental contact of electrode to metal objects can cause arcs, explosion, overheating, or fire.

LF Declaration Consult the data plate on the equipment for the power supply requirements. Due to the elevated absorbency of the primary current from the power supply network, high power systems affect the quality of power provided by the network. Consequently, connection restrictions or maximum impedance requirements permitted by the network at the public network connection point must be applied to these systems.
For your own safety and that of your working environment, pay particular attention to the safety instructions in the manual. For more information on SifWeld products, consult an authorised SifWeld dealer, or visit the SifWeld web site at www.sifweld.com.

PANEL FUNCTIONS & DESCRIPTIONS 4T MODE This is known as ’latching’ mode. The trigger is pulled once and released to activate the welding circuit, welding circuit, pulled and released again to stops the welding circuit. This function is pulled and released again to stops the welding circuit. This function is useful to longer welds as the useful to longer welds as the trigger is not required to be held on continuously.
3. Installation Unpacking Check the packaging for any signs of damage. Carefully remove the machine and retain the packaging until the installation is complete. Location The machine should be located in a suitable position and environment. Care should be taken to avoid moisture, dust, steam, oil or corrosive gases.

TIG Welding 1. Insert the earth cable plug into the positive socket on the front of the machine and tighten it. 2. Plug the welding torch into the negative socket on the front panel, and tighten it. 3. Connect the gas line of TIG Gun to outlet gas connector on the front of the machine. 4.
3.2 Wireless Foot Pedal & Wireless Remote Control TIG series of welding machines can be configured to communicate exclusively with wireless foot pedal. This is done by a simple process of synchronising the wireless remote control and the machine frequencies. Each interface frequency assigned is unique, so it is possible to use several wireless control systems/ machines in the same area with no problems.
INSTALLATION & OPERATION succeed. 3.3 Pedal Switch Control §3.4.8 Pedal switch control ● When plug the twelve-lead aero-socket of pedal switch in it. Welder will identify the pedal switch, the welding current knob on the front panel will can’t use,and only 2T can When plug the twelve-lead aero-socket of pedal switch in it.
4. Operation Before starting any welding activity ensure that you have suitable eye protection and protective clothing. Also take the necessary steps to protect any persons within the area. Wire types and sizes Use the correct wire type for the base metal being welded. Use stainless steel wire for stainless steel, alumi- num for aluminum and steel wires for steel.
5. Troubleshooting Error Type Code Description Over-heating (1st thermal relay) Over-heating (2nd thermal relay) Thermal relay Over-heating (3rd thermal relay) Over-heating (4th thermal relay) Over-heating (Program default) Phase loss No gas Welding machine Under voltage Over voltage Over current Wire feeder over load Button fault on operating panel when switch on the machine Other faults on operating panel when switch on the machine Switch...
6. Maintenance The utilisation level of the power source and its working environment should be taken into consideration in planning the frequency of maintenance of the machine. Appropriate use and preventive maintenance guarantee the best trouble-free use of the equipment. This allows you to avoid interruptions in use and increases the productivity of the machine.
