the arc nor expose themselves to the arc rays or to hot spatter or material. Fumes and gases can be dangerous • Welding may produce fumes and gases, breathing these fumes and gases can be hazardous to your health. • When welding, keep your head out of the fume. If inside, ventilate the area at the arc to keep fumes and gases away from the breathing zone.

1-3 Output characteristics Fig. 1-3-1: Output characteristics 1-4 Duty cycle Duty cycle is percentage of 10 minutes that a machine can weld at rated load without overheating. If overheats, thermostat(s) will open, output stops. Wait for fifteen minutes for the machine to cool down. Reduce amperage or duty cycle before welding. Note! Exceeding duty cycle can damage the machine and greatly reduce its lifespan.
1-5 Applications The power source is suitable for mild steel, alloy steel, stainless steel, copper, silver and titanium welding, and is designed for the following recommended areas: Electric power, petrochemical construction Boiler and pressure vessel Shipyards Bicycle, fitness equipment, and stainless furniture manufacturing Nuclear power station 1-6 Warning label The warning label is affixed on the top of machine.
2-VERSIONS BRIEFS Professional welding of special materials requires special welding parameters. Different models of the power sources are matched to different welding. ● PoWer 4000 DC Pulse Digital control panel. Accurate preset and adjustable parameters. Suitable for thin plate pulse mode welding.
3-BEFORE COMMISSIONING Warning! Operating the equipment incorrectly can cause serious injury and damage. Do not use the functions described here until you have read and completely understood “safety rules”. 3-1 Utilization for intended purpose only The power source may only be used for SMAW ,TIG. Utilization for other purposes, or in any other manner, shall be deemed to be "not in accordance with the intended purpose".
3-4 Welding cables instruction When welding, please pay attention to the followings: a. The welding cables should be kept as short as possible; b. If extended cable is used, please do as shown in Fig. 3-4-1. Wrong Coil the excess ground cable and welding cable in same direction respectively.
4-POWER TIG 4000 DC PULSE 4-1 System components This series welding machine can be equipped with many different accessories and can be used in different special sites with different configurations. Fig. 4-1-1: System components 4-2 Basic equipments for welding Only be equipped with the necessary accessories, can the power source operate well. The following is the needed accessories list.
-Ground cable -Electrode holder -Electrode 4-3 Control panel Note! You may find that your machine has certain functions or some parameters that are not described in this operating manual. Also, certain illustrations may be very slightly different from the actual controls on your machine. However, these controls function in exactly the same way.
