residual gases. Fuel tanks should be thoroughly cleaned with a steam cleaner before any kind
of welding work can be performed on them.
Personal safety
•
Always wear welding gloves when operating this device to protect your hands from the direct
heat of the arc as well as the UV radiation emitted by it.
•
When working with higher settings, make sure to wear a special leather apron for additional
protection from possible spatter.
•
Do not look into the arc with your eyes unprotected. Only use welding protection shields with
protective glass according to DIN. The welding shield must always be used during welding. It
protects your eyes from harmful ultraviolet radiation and heat emitted by the welding arc.
•
When performing overhead welding, a closed welding helmet with adequate neck protection
must be worn.
•
It is generally advised to wear an overall as well as safety shoes with steel toe caps when
welding.
First steps
Ensure that your MIG welder is earthed and connected to a suitable switch disconnector. The wiring
should thereby be as follows:
•
brown = phase conductor
•
blue = neutral conductor
•
green/yellow = earthing
Installing a new wire reel
1.
Remove the chassis of the welder and carefully unfasten both, the power nozzle and as well as
the burner nozzle.
2. Then attach the wire reel. Ensure that the spring is placed properly before fastening everything.
3. Check the feed roller and ensure that the size depicted on its top corresponds to the size of the
wire you intend to use. It might be necessary to reverse the feed roller. To do so you must
loosen its support by removing the fastening screws and the bracket. The feed roller can now
be removed and reversed.
4. Search for the loose end of the wire, which should be placed in a hole on the rim of the reel,
and remove deformed parts with the help of a wire cutter to ensure that the wire will not jam in
the process of welding. Make thereby sure that the wire does not come undone from the reel.
5. Hinge the pressure control away and insert the wire into the opening. Thereby ensure that the
wire is inserted in a straight line and that the feed mechanism can pull it in.
6. Return the pressure control to its original position. Make sure to choose the right size for the
wire (0.6 mm or 0.8 mm) and that the wire is placed in its niche accordingly.
7. Turn on the main switch of the device and press the trigger of the burner to cause the feed
mechanism to pull the wire through the hose and burner.
8. As soon as there is a wire excess of 1–2 cm sticking out of the burner, let go of the trigger and
turn off the device.
9. Carefully reattach both power nozzle and burner nozzle. When reattaching, check that the size
of the power nozzle corresponds to the wire size.
10. Reattach the chassis and fasten it.
Caution:
Always make sure to completely unfold the hose connecting the burner and the main body of
the welder when feeding wire as the moving wire might otherwise damage the hose by puncturing it
from the inside.
