5 CARRYING AND INSTALLING OF THE WIRE FEEDER 5.1 TRANSPORTATION WARNING Observe the following to avoid damage to the wire feeder or physical injury when carrying the equipment. • Do not touch the charging parts inside or outside the wire feeder. •...
6 CONNECTION PROCEDURE WARNING Follow the instructions below to avoid electric shock. Do not touch live electrical parts, as this may cause in fatal shock and severe burns. • Do not touch live electrical parts of the welding machine. • Have a qualified electric engineer ground the case of the welding power source and the base metal or jig electrically connected, following a local low.
6.2 CONNECTING OF THE WATER/GAS HOSE WARNING You may suffer from danger of suffocation caused by lack of oxygen when shield gas keep drifting in a closed place. Be sure to turn off the shield gas at the main when the welding power source is not in use.
6.3 CONNECTING OF THE CONNECTION CABLE CAUTION • Ensue that the torch connector is firmly attached. If the connector is not fully inserted, there may be a risk of product damage. ❖ How to connect the connection cables Connect the connection cables following the procedure shown below. Attaching control cable for wire feeder.
6.4 CONNECTING OF THE POWER CABLE FOR WIRE FEEDER WARNING Touching live electrical parts may cause in fatal electric shock and severe burns. • Do not touch live electrical parts of the welding machine. • Have a qualified electric engineer ground the case of the welding power source and the base metal or jig electrically connected in accordance with a local low.
6.5 CONNECTING OF THE WELDING TORCH CAUTION • Ensue that the torch connector is firmly attached. If the connector is not fully inserted, there may be a risk of fire, burns, and product damage. ❖ How to connect the welding torch Connect the welding torch following the procedure shown below.
7 WELDING PREPERATION 7.1 CHECKING OF WIRE SIZE / REPLACEMENT OF FEED ROLL Use feed rolls suited to the wire size. Using an improper feed roll will cause it slip to disable normal wire feed or deform the wire, resulting in improper welding. ❖...
7.2 FITTING OF WIRE WARNING • When the wire is set on the wire reel shaft, fully tighten the cap to prevent falling. • In case a breakage, crack or deformation is found in the wire reel shaft or cap, do not use but replace it.
7.3 ADJUSTING OF THE WIRE PRESSURE ❖ Adjusting of the wire pressure and straightener • Set to the proper wire pressure for the wire type by turning the pressure handle. • The numeral on the pressure scale set with the right pressure handle should be correspond to the one set with the left pressure handle.
7.4 ADJUSTING OF THE WIRE REEL HUB After performing inching operation, take care to adjust the brake of the wire reel hub to prevent the wire from going too slack. The brake has been properly adjusted before shipment. Therefore, readjustment of the brake is not required for welding in standard welding conditions.
7.5 WIRE FEEDING BY PERFORMING INCHING OPERATION WARNING • Do not look into the tip hole to check for the rate of wire feeding while inching. WARNING • Keep away your hands, fingers, hair or clothes from the rotating parts of the feed roll, etc. to prevent you from being caught into the rotating parts while inching.
8.2 TROUBLESHOOTING 8.2.1 ACTION IN CASE OF ERROR When a communication error has occurred between the digital panel and the welding power source, a corresponding error code is displayed on the digital panel. Check the displayed error code and take an appropriate action according to the table below.
9 MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING 9.1 CARRYING OUT MAINTENANCE WARNING • Do not touch live electrical parts inside or outside the wire feeder. • Disconnect the wire feeder from the welding power source by turning off the line disconnect switch in the power box to avoid an electric shock before carrying the equipment.
