SYN 2500 PULSE USER MANUAL Step 4 Selecting the welding wire diameter You choose the welding wire diameter you plan to use. ATTENTION! The device automatically reduces or increases its maximum power depending on the wire diameter. Step 5 Selecting the welding wire diameter You choose the welding wire diameter you plan to use.
SYN 2500 PULSE USER MANUAL E. MIG/MAG OPERATION In MIG welding mode, the user sets all welding parameters one after the other. The system suggests the selection of optimal welding parameters by indicating at their adjustment thickness of the welded material (see table - setting the wire feeder speed). This information suggests to the user that the settings are correct.

SYN 2500 PULSE USER MANUAL TIG Welding In the TIG (Tungsten Inert Gas) method, the electric arc strikes under an inert gas (argon) shield, between the welded element and the non-fusible electrode made of pure tungsten or tungsten with additives.
SYN 2500 PULSE USER MANUAL WELDING POLARITY IN THE TIG METHOD Negative polarity is used for most TIG welding operations. The welding gun is connected to the negative pole, while the earth gun is connected to the positive pole. In this way, the electrode consumption is reduced, the amount of heat accumulated in the welded material increases.
