Stray welding When using current supply distributors, twin head wire feeder fixtures etc., currents please note the following: The electrode on the unused welding torch/welding (continued) tongs is also current carrying. Please ensure that there is sufficient insula- ting storage for the unused welding torch/tongs. In the case of automated MIG/MAG applications, ensure that only insulated filler wire is routed from the welding wire drum, large wirefeeder spool or wirespool to the wirefeeder.

Particular danger When hoisting the machines by crane, only use suitable manufacturer- spots supplied lifting devices. (continued) Attach the chains and/or ropes to all the hoisting points provided on the suitable lifting device. The chains and/or ropes must be at an angle which is as close to the vertical as possible.

Proper use also includes: use of MIG / MAG welding torches with a holder diameter of 16 - 22 mm using the spare parts stipulated by Fronius following all the information in the operating instructions using this document in conjunction with the operating instructions of the integrated system components (driving vehicle, power source, wire-feed unit, etc.)
Warning notices The oscillation unit has safety symbols on the rating plate. These affixed to the safety symbols must NOT be removed or painted over. oscillation unit Type: FOU 30/ML6 Art.No.: 8,045,370 A-4600 Wels www.fronius.com Ser.No.: 20 26 9509 weight max.
Control elements and connections Oscillation unit WARNING! Operating the equipment incorrectly can cause serious injury and control panel damage. Do not use the functions described until you have thoroughly read and understood the following documents: these operating instructions all the operating instructions for the system components, especially the safety rules No.
Start-up Mounting the WARNING! Operating the equipment incorrectly can cause serious injury and oscillation unit damage. Do not use the functions described until you have thoroughly read and understood the following documents: these operating instructions all the operating instructions for the system components, especially the safety rules Mounting the oscillation unit FOU-30/ML6 1.
Set the The oscillating parameters determine the appearance and quality of the weld seam. oscillation Observe the following procedure: 1. Set the "Start LEFT / STOP / Start RIGHT" toggle switch on the driving vehicle control panel to the "STOP" (0) position. 2.
Troubleshooting General In the event of faults, note that the functioning of the entire system depends on many additional components (driving vehicle, power source, wire-feed unit, etc.) that are also potential sources of problems. Basic require- Connections established between separate system components ments for the System components are supplied with electricity and the mains voltage for each system to work...
Maintenance and care Personnel WARNING! Risk of injury and damage from incorrectly performed main- tenance. All maintenance on the FDV 22 MF driving vehicle must only be carried out by trained technicians. It is essential to adhere to the maintenance intervals and maintenance procedures. The manufacturer accepts no liability for any damage caused by inadequate or poorly performed maintenance.
