Page 18: Getting Started
• Connect the quick connector C1 into C3 or C4 (according the welding current). • Connect the earthing clamp C2 to the welding piece • In case your appliance is a model with separate wire feeder connect the ALFA IN a.s. © www.alfain.eu... - Page 19 E1 into vertical position. • Adjust the pressure nut that way that it provides constant movement of wire but it does not deform wire. INSERTING THE WELDING WIRE INTO THE WELDING TORCH ALFA IN a.s. © www.alfain.eu...
- Page 20 CHANGING THE WIRE FEEDER ROLL • Every wire feeding roll in ALFA IN machines can be used for two different diameters of welding wire – the rolls have two grooves. • When the machine is equipped with two roll wire feeder move the lever E1 to the right (2 roll feeder)/ forward (4 roll feeder).

To select the current (that is linked to the wire speed) use the encoder V1. WELDING MODES Machines works in four modes: • continuous two stroke (2T) • continuous four stroke (4T) • spot welding • interval welding ALFA IN a.s. © www.alfain.eu... - Page 23 FOUR STROKE BASIC Set the potentiometers V7 into any position 1 – 10. Potentiometer V6 must be in 0 position. SPOT AND INTERVAL WELDING DIGITAL Keep pressing the button X3 (2T/4T) for at least 3s ALFA IN a.s. © www.alfain.eu...
- Page 24 The spot welding mode is being used for welding short welds of the same length. The pressing the torch button activates the time circuit that starts and end the welding procedure. ALFA IN a.s. © www.alfain.eu...
- Page 25 The welder select the parameter that he knows by means the button X5 and the encoder X20 (Current in A, wire speed in m/min or material thickness). Then the welder can the recommended settings see on the right display (see Fig. 17). ALFA IN a.s. © www.alfain.eu...
