GENERAL INFORMATION 1.4. Design The LIZARD welding carriage contains a drive system with controller, cross slides, two follower arms, cable holder, and torch holder. The drive system comprises a gear motor that drives four rubber wheels of high thermal resistance.
Travel Direction Switch (left / 0 / right) Figure 2. Control panel design 1.5. Equipment included The LIZARD welding carriage is supplied with complete standard equipment in foam filled cardboard box. The included equipment consists of: • Welding Carriage – 1 unit •...
SAFTEY PRECAUTIONS 2. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS Before start, read Operator’s Manual and complete proper occupational safety and health training. Machine must be used only in applications stated in Operator’s Manual. Machine must be complete and all parts must be genuine. Power supply specifications must conform to those stated on rating plate. Power supply socket must be equipped with grounding pin.

SAFTEY PRECAUTIONS Perform all maintenance work only with power cord unplugged from power socket. Perform all repairs only in service centre appointed by seller. If machine falls on hard surface, from height, is wet, or has other damage that could affect technical state of machine, stop operation and immediately send machine to service centre for inspection.
STARTUP AND OPERATION 3. STARTUP AND OPERATION WARNING! Read safety precautions before starting. 3.1. Preparation Use carrying handle (Figure 3) for transportation and positioning at the worksite. Set all levers to position “0”: power switch, magnetic unit lever, arc ignition switch, and travel direction switch. Knobs securing Cable Cable Holder into Holder...

STARTUP AND OPERATION Plug the cord into power supply socket. Put a torch into the torch holder and secure with the knob. Then, put the torch cable into the cable holder, secure it with the knobs, and fix the holder in a proper position using the levers.
3.3. Programming The LIZARD welding carriage is equipped with a programming device that enables to define up to 40 welding programs. After you enter into the configuration menu, proceed as described in the Figure 6 to move among the parameters from the Table 1.
“Load setup” 1 - 40 Pressing knob F2 loads the configuration saved under the indicated program number. “Language” ENGLISH POLISH Language of the menu SPANISH FRENCH PORTUGUESE TURKISH Table 1. Settings available in basic version of LIZARD welding carriage...
STARTUP AND OPERATION 3.5. Operation If the machine is to control a torch, toggle the arc ignition switch to position “I”. To check whether the arc ignition cable is connected correctly, toggle the switch to position “TEST”. WARNING: If the arc ignition switch is set to position “I”, the torch starts welding immediately after choosing a travel direction.
STARTUP AND OPERATION 3.6. Using oscillator (optional equipment) 3.6.1 Installation Mount the oscillator according to the following instructions. • Disassemble torch holder (1). • Disassemble torch plate (2) by unscrewing bolts (3). • Unscrew cap (4). • Fix arm (5) to oscillator (6). •...
STARTUP AND OPERATION 3.4.2. Welding with Oscillation Once the oscillator is connected to the LIZARD welding carriage, several new settings appear in the menu (Table 2). Welding with the oscillation is performed in a standard manner, however, the welds form a shape similar to the shape shown in the Figure 8 instead of a straight line from the Figure 7.
STARTUP AND OPERATION 3.6.3. Operation Operating the LIZARD welding carriage with connected oscillator is performed similarly to operating without the oscillator. During welding with oscillator, the menu indicated in the Figure 9 shows up on the display. Rotation of the knob F1 changes the oscillation amplitude by 1%.
