DEVICE PRESENTATION (I)
1- Reel support (200 or 300mm)
2- Wire feeder
3- Handle
4- Wire speed potentiometer
5- Euro torch connector
6- Upper section of the swivel support
7- Gas connector of the connecting harness
8- Control cable connector
9- Power cable connector
10- Eye rings (Don’t lift by the handles (3))
ASSEMBLY & CONNECTION (I & II)
Installing the swivel support on the generator
Use the 3 screws (included with the generator) supplied to x the bottom part of the swivel support onto the generator
The upper part of the support is already xed under the wire feeder.
Gas Coupling
Fit the gas pipe to the connector (7) of the wire feeder (collar included)
Contact Cable Connection
Connect the wire feeder to the generator, making sure that the power connectors (9) & (11), the command connectors (8) & (12), and the water
connectors (13) & (14) are securely tightened.
Fix the power cable on the support (15).
WIRE REEL INSTALLATION (III)
• Open the door of the machine.
• Position the reel on to the support (1) taking care of the pin.
• Adjust the break (2), to avoid reel movement tangling the wire when the welding stops.
• Tighten the plastic screw rmly (3).
• For the rst use :
- Release the xing screw of the wire guide (4)
- Put the rollers in place (5). The visible diameter on the roller should be equal to the wire diameter used.
- Place the wire guide (6) as close as possible to the roller but without touching it, then tighten the xing screw.
• To select the adjustment of the drive rollers: loosen the drive roller knob as far as possible (7), insert the wire until it exits the other side by about
2cm. Start the motor by pressing the torch trigger, tighten the knob whilst pressing the trigger. Bend the wire where it comes out of the nozzle and
hold it in place to stop its progress - the setting is correct when the guide roller slides over the wire, even when it is blocked at the end of the torch.
USE
WS-4R / WS-4L allows the user welding using the parameters set on the MIG generator. To adjust the settings to the type and diameter of wire
used, please refer to the 400 GR, 500 GR and 500 WS user manual.
It is possible to change the wire speed, in synergic or manual mode using the potentiometer on the front panel
