Trim the wire end with wire scissors or a diagonal cutter in order to remove the damaged, bent ends
of the wire (see Fig. M).
PLEASE NOTE: The welding wire must be kept under tension the entire time in order to avoid a
releasing and a roll out! Therefore it is recommended to carry out the work with an additional person.
Push the welding wire through the wire feed guide 29 (see Fig. N).
Guide the welding wire along the feed roll 21 and push it into the wire feed 29.
Swivel the thrust roller unit 26 towards the feed roll 21 (see Fig. P).
Mount the adjustment 25 screw (see Fig. P).
Set the counter pressure with the adjustment screw 25. The welding wire must be firmly positioned
between the thrust roller and feed roll 21 in the upper guide without being crushed (see Fig. O).
Switch on the welding device on the main switch 23 (see Fig. C).
Press the torch button 9. Make sure that your inert gas cylinder is kept firmly closed, until the
welding wire has reached the required position.
Now the wire feed system pushes the welding wire through the cable assembly 7 and the torch 10.
As soon as 1–2 cm of the welding wire protrudes from the torch neck 30, release the torch button 9
again (see Fig. Q).
Switch off the welder at the main switch.
Screw the relevant welding nozzle 17, 18, 19 or 20 back on (see Fig. R). Make sure that the contact
tip 17, 18, 19 or 20 matches the diameter of the welding wire used. With the welding wire delivered
with the product, the contact tip 17, 18, 19 or 20 with the labelling 1.0 or 1.0 A must be used when
using solid aluminium wire.
Connect the torch nozzle 8 back onto the torch neck 30 with a turn to the right (see Fig. S).
Always unplug the mains plug from the socket prior to each maintenance
task or preparatory work in order to prevent the risk of an electric shock, injury or damage.
zWelding with wire electrodes
zSwitching the device on and off
Switch the welder on and off on the main switch 23. If you do not intend to use the welder for an
extended period, remove the mains plug from the power socket. This is the only way to completely
de-energise the device.
PLEASE NOTE: All the values shown in the following drawings are solely examples and do not
represent any recommendations for specific welding parameters.
