6. Einrichtung und Anschlüsse

Before connecting the machine, ensure the power switch is in the OFF position and the work area is clean, dry, and well-ventilated.

6.1 Stromanschluss:

1. Ensure your power supply is 220V monophase and can handle a 25A input current.
2. Connect the machine's power cord to a suitable grounded 220V outlet.

6.2 MMA (Electrode) Welding Setup:

1. Schließen Sie den Elektrodenhalter cl anamp Kabel an die positiv (+) terminal on the front panel.
2. Verbinden Sie die Erdungsklemmeamp Kabel an die negativ (-) terminal on the front panel.
3. Befestigen Sie die Bodenklemme sicher.amp to the workpiece or a sturdy metal workbench that is in direct contact with the workpiece. Ensure a clean, bare metal connection for optimal conductivity.
4. Setzen Sie die entsprechende Elektrode in den Elektrodenhalter ein.

6.3 TIG Welding Setup (Optional, TIG torch not included):

For TIG welding, you will need a separate TIG torch (dry torch type) and a gas cylinder with regulator (e.g., Argon). This machine supports Lift Arc TIG.

1. Connect the TIG torch cable to the positiv (+) terminal on the front panel.
2. Verbinden Sie die Erdungsklemmeamp Kabel an die negativ (-) terminal on the front panel.
3. Befestigen Sie die Bodenklemme sicher.amp zum Werkstück.
4. Connect the gas hose from the TIG torch to the gas regulator on your shielding gas cylinder.

7. Bedienungsanleitung

7.1 Powering On and Current Adjustment:

1. After completing all connections, turn the power switch on the rear panel to the ON position.
2. The digital display on the front panel will illuminate, showing the current setting.
3. Use the current adjustment knob to set the desired welding current. Refer to electrode manufacturer guidelines or welding charts for appropriate current settings based on electrode type and material thickness.

7.2 MMA (Electrode) Welding:

1. Ensure proper PPE is worn.
2. Einen Lichtbogen erzeugen Sie, indem Sie die Elektrode leicht an das Werkstück halten und sie dann schnell etwas anheben.
3. Maintain a consistent arc length and travel speed for a stable weld bead.
4. The Anti-Stick function will reduce the current if the electrode sticks to the workpiece, making it easier to detach without damaging the electrode or machine.

7.3 TIG (Lift Arc) Welding (with optional TIG torch):

1. Ensure proper PPE is worn and shielding gas is flowing.
2. Gently touch the tungsten electrode to the workpiece.
3. Slowly lift the torch to initiate the arc. The machine will automatically detect the lift and start the welding current.
4. Halten Sie einen kurzen Bogen und eine gleichmäßige Fahrgeschwindigkeit ein.
