1 - ON - OFF SWITCH this switch (Rif.1 - Pic. 2
page 4.) has two positions: : I = ON - O = OFF.
1.1 - LED ON ILLUMINATED (Green) (Rif.1.1 - Pic.
1 page 4.) : this led lights when the machine is turn
on.
2 - POST GAS REGULATION Regulation (Rif.2 -
Pic. 1 page 4.) of the delay time of the extinction
gas with screw-driver as regards the extinction of
the welding arc. Regulation time from 2 to 20 sec-
onds.
3 - AMPERAGE SELECTOR Use control knob
(Rif.3 - Pic. 1 page 4.) to regulate welding current.
4 - OVERHEATING WARNING LIGHT The yel-
low LED (Rif.4 - Pic. 1 page 4.) on the front panel
indicates overheating due to an excessive duty cy-
cle. Interrupt welding operation; leave the power
source on until the lamp goes out, thereby signalling
that temperature has returned to normal.
5 - WELDING MODE SELECTOR Select with the
switch (Rif.5 - Pic. 1 page 4.) the wished welding
modality.
5.1 - GTAW MODE SELECTOR Select with the
switch (Rif.5.1 - Pic. 1 page 4.) the wished GTAW
modality .
6 - SLOPE DOWN REGULATION
The regulation of (Rif.6 - Pic. 1 page 4.) slope down
time can be set continuosly from 0.2 to 10 seconds
and works after the release of push-botton torch.
7 - PRE GAS REGULATION
Regulation (Rif.7 - Pic. 1 page 4.) of the delay time
of the arc primer with screw-driver as regards the
gas that has to arrive to the torch to protect the weld-
ing bath. Regulation time from 0,1 to 1 second.
9 - GAS OUTLET FITTING
Connect the gas pipe leading (Rif.9 - Pic. 1 page 4.) to the elec-
trode torch to this fitting and fully tighten.
10 - SOCKET TORCH PUSHBUTTON (Rif.10 - Pic. 1 page 4.).
If you use a TIG torch with banana connector, you can assembly
on the generator the adapter (Rif.10 - Pic. 1 page 4.) that you find
in the box.

MAINTENANCE

Picture 3.
To assembly it you can follow the below procedure:
1. Remove by screwdriver the screws on the front side of ma-
chine (Rif.10 - Pic. 1 page 4.)
2. Disconnect the connector A from connector B;
3. Connect the connector C to connector B;
4. To be sure that the connectors are well connected;
5. Assembly the adaptor by screwdriver using the screws that
you removed before.
12. INSERT THE CYLINDER GAS pipe into this fitting (Rif.12 -
Pic. 1 page 4.) and secure with a hose clamp.
Ensure that these connections are well tightened to avoid
power loss and overheating.
NB: the power source is fitted with an anti-sticking device that dis-
ables power if output short circuiting occurs or if the electrode
sticks, allowing it to be easily detached from the workpiece. This
device enters into operation when power is supplied to the gener-
ator, even during the initial checking period, therefore any load in-
put or short circuit that occurs during this phase is treated as a
fault and will cause the output power to be disabled.
4.0 MAINTENANCE
IMPORTANT: DISCONNECT THE POWER PLUG AND WAIT
AT LEAST 5 MINUTES BEFORE CARRYING OUT ANY MAIN-
TENANCE. MAINTENANCE MUST BE CARRIED OUT MORE
FREQUENTLY IN HEAVY OPERATING CONDITIONS.
Carry out the following operations every three (3) months:
a. Replace any illegible labels.
b. Clean and tighten the welding terminals.
c. Repair or replace damaged welding cables.
d. Have specialized personnel replace the power cable if
damaged.
Carry out the following operations every six (6) months:
a. Remove any dust inside the generator using a jet of dry
air.
Carry out this operation more frequently when working in very
dusty places.
