    2.3 CONNECTING TO THE POWER GRID The welding machine is designed as a standard: 1. The mains voltage is 230V (-30% +13%) for StandardMIG-160/200/250 models; 2. Three-phase 3x380V or 3x400V (-15% +15%) (StandardMIG-270-400V/350-400V models), for which three wires are provided. Safety regulations for working with welding equipment require grounding the unit's housing.

  • Page 13: Connection Of The Mains Plug

    WARNING! For StandardMIG-160/200/250 models, the mains switch (14) is a signal button that blocks only the power current of the welding machine, but does not completely disconnect the internal electronics of the machine.

    It also makes it easier for the welder to separate (tear off) the electrode from the piece without the risk of burning his eyes by accidentally igniting the arc. After separating the electrode from the piece, the welding process can continue unhindered. - 14 - PATON StandardMIG DC MMA/TIG/MIG/MAG...

    ATTENTION! TIG torch must be of the valve type, with bayonet connector Ø9mm for StandardMIG-160 and Ø13mm for StandardMIG- 200/250 & 270/350-400V. The maximum torch current must be selected according to the operating requirements. WARNING! One common mistake is to sharpen the electrode on the 'needle', while the arc may 'wander' from side to side.
