Manual

FEATURES

The welding capabilities of your welder are given on the data label printed on the rear

panel of the machine (see list on page 22 for an explanation of markings and symbols).

Thermal Overload Protection

If the duty cycle of the welder is exceeded (see Specifications), the

Overload

Protection Device

will automatically cut the power to prevent damage to the

machine. Should the cut-out operate, the amber light on the front panel will illuminate,

and you will have to wait until the transformer cools down (approx. 30 minutes),

when the overload device will automatically reset itself and you can continue

welding. (On smaller welders the lamp is built in to the ON/OFF switch).

Although no harm will be done to the machine if/when the overload device is

actuated, its frequent use could eventually result in damage.

PREPARATION FOR WELDING

1. With the machine correctly connected to the mains supply in accordance

with the instructions given under ‘Electrical Connections’, attach the leads to

the machine as shown in Fig.1 on page 14.

Ensure the EARTH lead is connected to the WORKPIECE, and the other lead to

the ELECTRODE HOLDER.

IMPORTANT: Ensure also that the earth clamp is attached to clean, solid metal.

If necessary thoroughly clean with a wire brush or similar to guarantee a

good connection.

2. Select the appropriate electrode, which should be approximately the same

thickness as the piece to be welded, for single pass welding.

3. Select the appropriate welding current by turning the handwheel (H) and

observing the setting on the scale (J), on top of the machine.

NOTE: With practice you will get a feel for the best current settings for different

welding rod thicknesses.

The chart below is an indicator of the thickness of material/ welding rod thickness

and the corresponding welding current. This is intended as a guide only.

Can I store power tools in a shed or garage? Verified

In general, you can store power tools in a shed or garage, even if it sometimes freezes there. However, it is better for the lifespan of the power tool to store it in a dry place without major temperature fluctuations. In a shed or garage, differences in temperature can cause condensation to form, which can cause rust. In addition, tools that run on batteries last shorter and do not charge as well at very low temperatures. To be sure how your power tool needs to be stored, always thoroughly read the user manual.
