INSTALLATION – PRODUCT OPERATION
HARDWARE DESCRIPTION
The TIG 160 DC LIFT is a portable Inverter welder, for electrode welding (MMA) and TIG Lift in DC. It allows welding
with rutile, basic, stainless steel and cast iron electrodes. It works on a single phase 230V power supply. In TIG, it will
weld most of metals except aluminium and alloys. It is protected for a use on electric generators (230V /+- 15% or
400V/+-15 %).
POWER SUPPLY – STARTING UP
• This device is delivered with a 16A plug type EEC7/7. It must be connected on a 230 V (50-60Hz) socket WITH earth.
The absorbed effective current (I1eff) is 16A, for maximal using conditions. Check the power supply and its protection
(fuse and/or circuit-breaker) are compatible with the required current during use. In some countries, changing the plug
can be necessary to allow a use at maximal conditions. Use a 20A plug for intensive use. The device must be placed so
that the power supply is accessible.
•To turn on the machine press ON / STAND BY.
•The device will turn on in protection mode if the power supply voltage is over 265V.
To indicate this fault the screen displays
. Normal operation will resume after thirty seconds when the voltage has
returned to within its normal range.
CONNECTION ON A GENERATOR
The machine can work with generators as long as the auxiliary power matches these requirements :
- The voltage must be AC, always set as specied, and the peak voltage below 400V,
- The frequency must be between 50 and 60 Hz.
It is imperative to check these requirements as several generators generate high voltage peaks that can damage these
machines.
ELECTRODE WELDING (MMA MODE)
• Connect the earth and electrode-holder cables. Respect the polarity indicated on the electrodes’ packaging.
• Apply the usual welding rules.
• Your machine is equipped with 3 specic functions :
Hot Start (adjustable mode, see below) increases the current at the beginning of the welding.
Arc Force increases the current in order to avoid sticking when the electrode enters the weld pool.
Anti Sticking allows you to easily remove your electrode without damaging it in case of sticking.
Selection of MMA Mode and intensity setting :
- Select the MMA position (2) with the selector (5) until the MMA indicator illuminates
.
- Adjust the desired current (display (1)) using the key (4).
Hot Start adjustment
Hot Start is adjustable from 0 to 60% within the limit of 160A.
Advice: low Hot Start: for thin metal sheets – high Hot Start for metals that are difcult to weld (dirty or oxidized
parts).
To adjust the Hot Start follow these steps:
- Press the selector (5) briey.
- The «MMA» LED starts ashing and the display indicates the current Hot Start value.
- Set the required percentage ( display (1)) using keys (4).
- Validate the required gure by pressing the selector button (5).
- The «MMA» LED remains illuminated.
