From this moment, upon every start-up, a 3-digit code
(password) will be requested to activate the device.
NOTE: each device has its own password code, only in
electronic format and located in the submenu next to the
Password indication.
If you decide to activate the password, it is recommended to
write down the code and store it separately from the device.

2.4 MOTOR-DRIVEN GENERATORS

They must have an electronic regulator of the tension, a power
equal to or greater than 6 kVA (single phase) and must not
deliver a voltage greater than 260V RMS.
3 CONTROLS ON THE FRONT PANEL (Pict. 1)
A – DISPLAY
At start-up, in welding mode, it always shows the main menu:
A1 - Welding current.
A2 - Welding voltage.
A3 - Wire feed speed.
A4 - Welding voltage correction with respect to synergic
setting.
A5 - Thickness of material to be welded.
A6 - Welding process in progress.
A7 - Pulse MIG welding function.
A8 - Double pulse MIG welding function.
It also shows the submenu (PROCESS PARAMETER
SELECTION) and possible adjustments.
B – Knob/button (SETTINGS)
It allows selecting and activating all the programs in the
submenu (PROCESS PARAMETERS SELECTION), from
Processes (SYNERGIC MIG, PULSED MIG, MANUAL MIG,
MMA, TIG), to Programs (synergic curves), to work settings
(JOB, T-button, Spot-welding etc.) up to machine settings
(Reset, Password, Language).
C – Knob/button (short/pulse)
It allows adjusting all the parameters included in the submenu
(PROCESS PARAMETER SELECTION).
In addition, it allows directly moving from MIG SHORT process
to MIG PULSE process and vice versa.
D - Central adapter.
This is where the welding torch is to be connected.
E - Fairlead
Torch power terminal output.
F – Positive socket
In MMA welding, connect the electrode clamp; in MIG with
gas, the power cable coming out from fairlead E; in TIG and
MIG welding with flux-cored wire without gas, the earth cable.
G – Negative socket.
In MMA and MIG welding with gas, the earth cable connects
here; in TIG and MIG welding with flux-cored wire without gas,
insert the torch power cable coming out from fairlead E.
4 CONTROLS ON THE REAR PANEL (Pict. 2).
H - Fairlead
Power supply cable output.
I - Switch.
Turns the machine on and off.
J - Gas hose fitting.

5 SERVICE FUNCTIONS.

Make sure that the supply voltage corresponds to the rated
voltage of the welding machine.
Size the protective fuses based on the data listed on the
technical specifications plate.

5.1 MIG WELDING

Connect the gas hose of the welding machine to the pressure
regulator of the cylinder.
Mount the MIG torch on the fitting D.
Connect the earth cable to the socket G and the earth clamp
to the workpiece.
Make sure that the groove of the rollers matches the wire
diameter used. To replace it, if necessary: open the side door,
mount the wire coil and slip the wire into the feeder and torch
sheath, block the wire press rollers with the knob and adjust
the pressure. Turn on the machine.
Remove the gas nozzle and unscrew the current nozzle of the
torch. Press the torch button until the wire comes out. BE
CAREFUL to keep your face away from the end lance
while the wire is coming out, screw up the current nozzle
and fit the gas nozzle.
Open the canister adapter and adjust the gas flow to 8 – 10
l/min.
Starting from the main menu, press knob B for at least 1 sec.
to
enter
the
submenu
SELECTION). In the submenu, turn and press knob B to
select and enter the functions. To return to the submenu,
press knob B again. To return to the main menu, press and
hold down knob B for at least 1 sec.
The functions within the submenu are:
Programs (Synergic curves).
To choose the synergic curve, by means of the knob B, it
is necessary to select and press on the curve presented by
the display screen A.
After pressing the knob B, the previous display page is
displayed.
Processes
To choose and confirm the welding type, select one of the
processes with the knob B and press on it:
MIG SHORT SYNERGIC: to weld with constant and
continuous current delivery.
MIG PULSE: to weld with constant current delivery
interrupted by very short regular pauses (pulsation).
MIG MANUAL: to weld by setting parameters different from
those saved in the programs.
MMA: to weld basic and rutile electrodes.
TIG: for lift contact start welding.
After pressing the knob B, the previous page is displayed.
JOB (LOCKED) Optional function.
In this section you can save, load, or delete work
programs. If key B is pressed, display A shows the list of
saved programs and programs that can still be written.
To save a work program that has just been carried
-
out, select a program that can still be written by
pressing knob B, press knob C for at least 1 sec.
and write the 8-character name by turning and
