Congratulations on the purchase of your new welding machine! For your safety and the safety of others, please read the manual carefully before operating the unit. The operating manual must always be available near the welding machine. Announcement The contents of this manual are updated as required, as product changes are made. The manual is only used as operation guide, unless otherwise indicated.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS Safety Definitions This indicates that neglecting safety warnings may result in serious damage or injury, including death. This indicates that neglecting safety warnings may result in minor injury to WARNING personnel or property damage. This indicates that neglecting safety warnings may result in equipment failure or damage.

Beware of Electric Shocks Before welding, the yellow-green grounding wire in the power line must be grounded and the insulation of the welding cable must be ensured. During welding operation, do not touch live parts such as workbench, welding parts, earth clamp, electrode holder or welding torches.

Welding Sparks May Cause Fire or Explosion Corresponding protective measures should be taken in the welding area to avoid fire caused by welding sparks. Do not carry out welding operations in degreasing, cleaning and spraying areas. Do not weld gas-filled pipes, sealing grooves (tanks) and other devices, otherwise explosions or fires are likely to occur.

Avoiding Electromagnetic Interference Users should ensure that the welding power supply and other equipment in the environment do not produce electromagnetic interference, otherwise corresponding shielding and protection measures should be taken. According to the manufacturer's suggestion, the power source should be connected to the main power supply line.

equipment before hoisting. When moving the power source on the ground, fix the cylinder with a strap or chain to prevent tipping and injury. If the wire feeder is hoisted by lifting eyes for welding, it is necessary to ensure that it is fastened and stable.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION The Multipro 200SP applies the most advanced inverter technology in the world. The principle of inversion is to transform the power frequency of 50Hz/60Hz into direct current and invert it into high frequency (50KHz) through high-power device IGBT, then perform voltage-drop and commutation with the output high-power DC power supply via Pulse Width Modulation (PWM).
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTION The welding equipment is equipped with voltage compensation device. It ensures the normal operation of the machine during voltage fluctuations (±15% of rated voltage). It is suggested to use larger cable sizes, in order to reduce voltage drops during work requiring long cables..

Installation for MIG setup with optional spool gun NOTE: Ensure that all power to machine is turned off before connecting the spool gun. Connect the gas cylinder to the regulator. Select correct shielding gas for the application. Plug spool gun connection (A1) into output connection (1).
Page 14
Installation for TIG process Connect the gas cylinder to the regulator. Select correct shielding gas for the application. Connect gas hose (A2) to the regulator. Connect the dinse plug (A1) of the TIG torch to negative (4) terminal of the front panel, and fasten it clockwise.
PANEL FUNCTION ILLUSTRATION Multifunctional Data Display Data Selection Key Under MMA mode: can open or close VRD function by long press on the data selection key. Under MIG mode: can select parameters and choose the welding mode (2T/4T) by pressing the Data Selection Key.

Operation instruction: 1) The starting up display Switch on the welding power source, the front panel displays as Fig.1. After the Multifunctional Data Display (or any key or knob on front panel) flashes for 5 seconds, the machine enters into the welding mode that saved before the last shutdown.
Page 17
Adjusting parameters: In MIG mode, you can adjust the voltage and inductance. By default, you can adjust the wire feeding speed. Press the Data Selection Key for the first time, the Multifunctional Data Display shows as Fig.4. The preset welding voltage is adjustable within a range of ±20%. Press the Data Selection Key once again.

4) Operation instruction under MMA mode. Set welding mode: After making sure the torch is not operating, press the Function Switch Key to select MMA mode.,The SMAW indicator lights up when the machine enters into MMA mode. VRD function: Press the Data Selection Key for 3 seconds, the VRD function is enabled and will reduce open circuit voltage to a safe limit (Fig.11).

Error display: 1) Error display of wire feeder The panel displays as Fig.14 when the wire feeder is malfunctioning. The Multifunctional Data Display flashes continuously, indicating the machine cannot work normally. Please restart the machine. The panel will display the parameters that were set before malfunction occurrence. Fig.14 Error display of wire feeder 2)...
RISKS & PREVENTIVE MEASURES Environment 1) The machine must be operated under dry air conditions and a maximum humidity level of 90%. 2) Ambient temperature must be between -10 to 40 degrees centigrade. 3) Avoid welding in high temperatures, under the sun or rain. Avoid contact between water and appliance.
POTENTIAL OPERATING PROBLEMS The phenomenon listed below may happen due to relevant accessories used, welding material, surroundings and power supply. Please improve surroundings and avoid these problems. A. Arc starting difficulty. Arc interruption happens easily: 1) Examine whether grounding wire clamp contacts with the workpiece well. 2) Examine whether each joint has improper contact.
DAILY MAINTENANCE WARNING! Cut off the power completely before all maintenance, repair work. Make sure to pull out power plug before opening the case. 1. Remove dust regularly with dry compressed air. Remove dust at least once a month if the welding machine is used in very dusty or polluted areas.
DAILY CHECKING WELDING POWER SUPPLY Position Check points Remarks 1. Condition of operation, transfer and installation of switches Control panel 2. Check the power indicator If abnormal noise Cooling fan 1. Check if there is wind and if the sound is normal and no wind, check the inside of the fan 1.

TROUBLESHOOTING AND FAULT FINDING Notes: The following operations must be performed by qualified electricians with valid certifications. Before performing any maintenance or repair work, it is recommended to contact your local distributor to verify the required qualifications. Failures and solutions: Failure Solution 1.
DIAGNOSIS OF MANUFACTURING DEFECTS A new machine may have faults or manufacturing defects, such as unstable arc or poor welding quality. Although it is still too early to judge whether the machine is defective or not. If the above-mentioned problems occur with a new machine, a verification process should be followed before returning it to the retailer.
