Meet a better way of welding! For your own and other people’s safety, please read the manual carefully before operating. And the user manual must always be available near the welding machine. Announcement The contents of this manual are updated irregularly for updating of product.
SAFETY WARNING Security Definitions It indicates that neglecting safety warnings may result in serious accidents, even death or serious injury. It indicates that neglecting safety warnings may result in minor injury to personnel or property damage. It indicates that neglecting safety warnings may result in equipment failure or damage.

Beware of Electric Shocks Before welding, the yellow-green grounding wire in the power line must be grounded and the insulation of the welding cable must be ensured. During welding operation, do not touch live parts such as workbench, welding parts, earth clamp, electrode holder or welding torches.

Welding Sparks May Cause Fire or Explosion Corresponding protective measures should be taken in the welding area to avoid fire caused by welding mars. Do not carry out welding operations in degreasing, cleaning and spraying areas. Do not weld gas-filled pipes, sealing grooves (boxes) and other devices, otherwise explosions or fires are likely to occur.

Avoiding Electromagnetic Interference Users should ensure that the welding power supply and other equipment in the environment do not produce electromagnetic interference, otherwise corresponding shielding and protection measures should be taken. According to the manufacturer's suggestion, the power source should be connected to the main power supply line.

unloaded from the power supply first. When moving the power source on the ground, it is necessary to fix the cylinder with a strap or chain to prevent dumping and injuring people. If the wire feeder is hoisted by lifting lugs for welding, it is necessary to ensure that it is firm and insulated.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION The welding machine applies the most advanced inversion technology in the world. The principle of inversion is to transform the power frequency of 50Hz/60Hz into direct current and invert it into high frequency (50KHz) through high-power device IGBT, then perform voltage-drop and commutation with the output high-power D.C power supply via Pulse Width Modulation (PWM).
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTION The welding equipment is equipped with power voltage compensation device. It keeps the machine working normally when power voltage fluctuates ±15% of rated voltage. When using long cable, in order to reduce voltage drop, big section cable is suggested. If the cable is too long, it will affect the performance of arcing and other system functions, it is suggested to use the recommended length.

Installation for TIG process Connect the gas cylinder to the regulator. Connect gas hose to the regulator. Connect the TIG gas hose (A2) the free end of the gas hose. After disconnecting the gas hose from the back of the machine.
PANEL FUNCTION ILLUSTRATION Multifunctional Data Display Data Selection Key Under MMA mode: can open or close VRD function by long pressing on the data selection key. Under MIG mode: can select parameters and choose the welding mode (2T/4T) by pressing the Data Selection Key.

Operation instruction: 1) The starting up display Switch on the welding power source, the front panel displays as Fig.1. After the Multifunctional Data Display (or any key or knob on front panel) flashes for 5 seconds, the machine enters into the welding mode that saved in the last shutdown.
Page 17
Adjusting parameters: Under MIG mode, you can adjust the voltage, inductance and wire feeding speed. By default, you can adjust the wire feeding speed. Press the Data Selection Key for the first time, the Multifunctional Data Display shows as Fig.4, which means the welding voltage is adjustable, and the adjustment range of preset voltage is ±20%.

“HOLD” flashes for 3 seconds and quenches, which means the welding stops. 2 seconds later, Multifunctional Data Display redisplays the preset current. Fig.8 The Status after Stop Welding under MIG Mode 3) Operation instruction under LIFT TIG mode. When welding stops, press the Function Switch Key to LIFT TIG mode. The LIFT TIG indicator light will illuminate (Fig.9).

4) Operation instruction under MMA mode. Set welding mode: When welding stops, press the Function Switch Key to MMA mode,the SMAW indicator lights will illuminate. VRD function: Press the Data Selection Key for 3 seconds, the VRD reduces open circuit voltage to a safe limit and the function is enabled (Fig.11).

Malfunction display: 1) Malfunction display of wire feeder The panel displays as Fig.14 when the wire feeder is malfunctioning, and the Multifunctional Data Display flashes continuously, the machine can not work normally. Please restart the machine, the panel would display the parameters that were set before malfunction occurrence. Fig.14 Malfunction Display of Wire Feeder 2)...
ATTENTION & PREVENTIVE MEASURES Environment 1) The machine must be operated under dry air conditions and a maximum humidity level of 90%. 2) Ambient temperature must be between -10 to 40 degrees centigrade. 3) Avoid welding in high temperatures, under the sun or rain.
POTENTIAL OPERATING PROBLEMS The phenomenon listed below may happen due to relevant accessories used, welding material, surroundings and power supply. Please improve surroundings and avoid these problems. A. Arc starting difficulty. Arc interruption happens easily: 1) Examine whether grounding wire clamp contacts with the workpiece well. 2) Examine whether each joint has improper contact.
DAILY MAINTENANCE WARNING! Cut off the power completely before all maintenance, repair work. Make sure to pull out power plug before opening the case. 1. Remove dust regularly with dry compressed air. Remove dust at least once a month if the welding machine is used in very dusty or polluted areas.
DAILY CHECKING WELDING POWER SUPPLY Position Check points Remarks 1. Condition of operation, transfer and installation of switches Control panel 2. Check the power indicator If abnormal noise Cooling fan 1. Check if there is wind and if the sound is normal and no wind, check the inside of the fan 1.

TROUBLESHOOTING AND FAULT FINDING Notes: The following operations must be performed by qualified electricians with valid certifications. Before performing any maintenance or repair work,it is recommended to contact your local distributor to verify the required qualifications. Failures and solutions: Failure Solution 1.
INITIAL PROBLEMS DIAGNOSE A new machine may have faults or manufacturing defects, such as unstable arc or poor welding quality. Although it is still too early to judge whether the machine is defective or not. If the above-mentioned problems occur with a new machine, a verification process should be followed before returning it to the retailer.
