Page 6 SAFETY Welding and cutting equipment can be dangerous to both the operator and people in or near the surrounding working area, if the equipment is not correctly operated. Equipment must only be used under the strict and comprehensive observance of all relevant safety regulations. Read and understand this instruction manual carefully before the installation and operation of this equipment.
Page 7 Fire hazard. Welding on closed containers, such as tanks,drums, or pipes, can cause them to explode. Flying sparks from the welding arc, hot work piece, and hot equipment can cause fires and burns. Accidental contact of electrode to metal objects can cause sparks, explosion, overheating, or fire. Check and be sure the area is safe before doing any welding. • The welding sparks & spatter may cause fire, therefore remove any flammable materials well away from the working area. Cover flammable materials and containers with approved covers if unable to be moved from the welding area. •...

Page 10 Installation set up for MMA (Stick) Welding with RAZOR 175-200 MIG (1) Turn the power source on and select the MMA function with the MIG/MMA selector switch. (2) Connection of Output Cables Two sockets are available on this welding machine. For MMA welding the electrode holder is shown be connected to the negative socket, while the earth lead (work piece) is connected to the positive socket, this is known as DC- polarity.
Page 11 MMA (Manual Metal Arc) Welding One of the most common types of arc welding is manual metal arc welding (MMA) or stick welding. An electric cur- rent is used to strike an arc between the base material and a consumable electrode rod or ‘stick’. The electrode rod is made of a material that is compatible with the base material being welded and is covered with a flux that gives off gaseous vapours that serve as a shielding gas and providing a layer of slag, both of which protect the weld area from atmospheric contamination. The electrode core itself acts as filler material the residue from the flux that forms a slag covering over the weld metal must be chipped away after welding.
Page 12 MMA (Stick) Welding Fundamentals Electrode Selection As a general rule, the selection of an electrode is straight forward,in that it is only a matter of selecting an electrode of similar composition to the parent metal. However, for some metals there is a choice of several electrodes, each of which has particular properties to suit specific classes of work. It is recommend to con- sult your welding supplier for the correct selection of electrode.
Page 13 Installation set up for MIG with Gas for RAZOR 175-200 MIG (1) Select the MIG function with the MIG/MMA selector switch. (2) Select Standard using the Standard/Spool Gun selector switch. (3) Plug the welding torch into the Euro Mig torch connection socket on the front panel, and tighten it. When connecting the torch be sure to tighten the connection.
Page 14 Continued set up for MIG with Gas for RAZOR 175-200 MIG (9) Align the wire into the groove of the drive roller and close down the top roller making sure the wire is in the groove of the bottom drive roller, lock the pressure arm into place. (10) Apply a medium amount of pressure to the drive roller.
Page 15 Wire Feed Roller Selection The importance of smooth consistent wire feeding during MIG welding cannot be emphasized enough. Simply put the smoother the wire feed then the better the welding will be. Feed rollers or drive rollers are used to feed the wire mechanically along the length of the welding gun. Feed rollers are designed to be used for certain types of welding wire and they have different types of grooves machined in them to accommodate the different types of wire.
Page 16 Wire Installation and Set Up Guide Again the importance of smooth consistent wire feeding during MIG welding cannot be emphasized enough. The correct installation of the wire spool and the wire into the wire feed unit is critical to achieving an even and consistent wire feed.
Page 17 Installation set up for MIG with Gasless wire for RAZOR 175-200 MIG (1) Switch on the machine, select the MIG function with the MIG/MMA selector switch. (2) Select Standard using the Standard/Spool Gun selector switch. (3) Plug the welding torch into the Euro Mig torch connection socket on the front panel, and tighten it. When connecting the torch be sure to tighten the connection.
Page 18 Continued set up for MIG with Gasless wire for RAZOR 175-200 MIG (8) Carefully feed the wire over the drive roller into the outlet guide tube, feed through about 150mm into the torch receptacle. Check that the correct drive roller is being used. (9) Align the wire into the groove of the drive roller and close down the top roller making sure the wire is in the groove of the bottom drive roller, lock the pressure arm into place.
Page 19 Mig Torch Liner Installation (1) Lay the torch out straight on the ground and remove the front end parts (2) Remove the liner retaining nut. (3) Carefully pull the liner out of the torch cable assembly (4) Select the correct new liner and carefully unravel avoiding putting any kinks in the liner, if you kink the liner it will make it no good and will require replacement.

Page 22 Installation set up of the Spool Gun for RAZOR 175-200 MIG (1) Switch on the machine, select the MIG function with the MIG/MMA selector switch. (2) Select Spool Gun using the Standard/Spool Gun selector switch. (3) Connect the Spool Gun to the Euro MIG torch connection socket on the front panel, and tighten it. Connect the Spool Gun control cable to the receptacle and tighten it.
Page 23 Continued set up of the Spool Gun for RAZOR 175-200 MIG Carefully feed the wire through the red guide tube into meet the drive roller. Push down the tension arm adjustment lever to release the drive roll pressure allowing the wire to be guided through the drive rollers into the gun neck.
Page 24 MIG (Metal Inert Gas) Welding Definition of MIG Welding MIG (metal inert gas) welding also known as GMAW (gas metal arc welding) or MAG (metal active gas welding), is a semi-automatic or automatic arc welding process in which a continuous and consumable wire electrode and a shielding gas are fed through a weld- ing gun.
Page 25 MIG (Metal Inert Gas) Welding Short Circuit Transfer - Short circuit transfer is the most common used method whereby the wire electrode is fed continuously down the welding torch through to and exiting the contact tip. The wire touches the work piece and causes a short circuit the wire heats up and begins to form a molten bead, the bead separates from the end of the wire and forms a droplet that is transferred into the weld pool.
Page 26 Basic MIG Welding Good weld quality and weld profile depends on gun angle, direction of travel, electrode extension (stick out), travel speed, thickness of base metal, wire feed speed (amperage) and arc voltage. To follow are some basic guides to assist with your setup. Gun Position - Travel Direction, Work Angle Gun position or technique usually refers to how the wire is directed at the base metal, the angle and travel direction chosen.
Page 27 Travel Angle - Travel angle is the right to left angle relative to the direction of welding. A travel angle of 5°- 15° is ideal and produces a good level of control over the weld pool. A travel angle greater that 20° will give an unstable arc condition with poor weld metal transfer, less penetration, high levels of spatter, poor gas shield and poor quality finished weld.
Page 28 Travel Speed - Travel speed is the rate that the gun is moved along the weld joint and is usually measured in mm per minute. Travel speeds can vary depending on conditions and the welders skill and is limited to the welders ability to control the weld pool. Push technique allows faster travel speeds than Drag technique. Gas flow must also correspond with the travel speed, increas- ing with faster travel speed and decreasing with slower speed.
Page 29 Wire types and sizes - Use the correct wire type for the base metal being welded. Use stainless steel wire for stainless steel, aluminium wires for aluminium and steel wires for steel. Use a smaller diameter wire for thin base metals. For thicker materials use a larger wire diameter and larger machine, check the recommended welding capability of you machine.
