• Insert the central plug for the welding torch into the central connector and screw together with crown
nut.
• Insert the welding current plug of the combi welding torch into the (-) welding current connection so-
cket and lock into place by turning to the right (only in case of a separate welding current connection).
• Lock connecting nipples of the cooling water tubes into the corresponding quick connect couplings:

Welding task selection

For selection of the welding task and for general operation see the relevant Control operating instructions.
5.5 MMA welding or gouging
Risk from electrical current!
If welding is carried out alternately using different methods and if a welding torch and
an electrode holder remain connected to the machine, the open-circuit/welding voltage
is applied simultaneously on all cables.
• The torch and the electrode holder should therefore always be placed on an insulated
surface before starting work and during breaks.
