• 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. If ventilation is not good, wear an approved air-supplied respirator.

• Always install cylinders in an upright position by securing to a stationary support or cylinder rack to prevent falling over or tipping. • Keep a safe distance from arc welding or cutting operations and any other source of heat, sparks, or flame.

• Have only qualified persons remove doors, panels, covers, or guards for servicing and maintenance. • Reinstall doors, panels, covers, or guards when servicing and maintenance is finished and before reconnecting input power. Overuse can cause overheating • Use machine follow duty cycle. Reduce current or reduce duty cycle before starting to weld again.
1-GENERAL REMARKS ARC series welding machine is suitable for DC MMA, lift TIG process, which can weld carbon steel, stainless steel, copper etc. Because of the ideal static characteristic and dynamic characteristics, machines highlights are as follows. 1-1 Power source features...
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.
ARC series This series use the MOSFET tube as inverter device, the inverter frequency is as high as 100KHZ. This series welding machines is suitable for STICK and TIG welding. ARC II series can weld cellulose electrodes.
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 STICK and TIG. Utilization for other purposes, or in any other manner, shall be deemed to be "not in accordance with the intended purpose".
Note!Inadequately dimensioned electrical installations can lead to serious damage. The mains lead, and its fuse protection, must be dimensioned in accordance with the local power supply. The technical data shown on the nameplate shall apply. 3-4 Welding cables instruction When welding, please pay attention to the followings: a.
4-ARC series 4-1 System components ARC 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 ARC series operate well.
4-3 Control panel The functions on the control panels are all arranged in a very logical way. Note! Some described parameters in this manual may be slightly different from the power source, some identification may be slightly different from power source identification, but the manner of working is the same.
To reduce this problem, when the arc voltage is low, increase the arc force can let the droplet transfer into molten pool as soon as possible, which will reduce the short circuit rate and improve anti-stick function.
