Insulate work clamp when not connected to workpiece to prevent contact with any single weld output
terminal.
Do not connect more than one electrode or work cable to any single weld output terminal.
SINGNIFICANT DC VOLTAGE EXISTS AFTER REMOVAL OF INPUT POWER ON INVERTERS:
Turn OFF inverter, disconnect input power, and discharge input capacitors according to instructions
in Maintenance Section before touching any parts.
FUMES AND GASES CAN BE HAZARDOUS:
Welding produces fumes and gases. Breathing these fumes and gases can be
hazardous to your health.
Keep your head out of the fumes. Do not breathe fumes.
If inside, ventilate the area and/or use exhaust at the arc to remove welding
fumes and gases.
If ventilation is poor, use an approved air-supplied respirator.
Read the Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDSs) and the manufacturer’s instructions for metals,
consumables, coatings, cleaners, and degreasers.
 Work in a conned space only if it is well ventilated, or while wearing an air-supplied respirator.
Always have a trained watch-person nearby. Welding fumes and gases can displace air and lower the
oxygen level causing injury or death. Be sure the breathing air is safe.
Do not weld in locations near degreasing, cleaning, or spraying operations. The heat and rays of the
arc can react with vapors to form highly toxic and irritating gases.
Do not weld on coated metals, such as galvanized, lead, or cadmium plated steel, unless the coating
is removed from the weld area, the area is well ventilated, and if necessary, while wearing an air-
supplied respirator. The coatings and any metals containing these elements can give off toxic fumes
if welded.
ARC RAYS CAN BURN EYES AND SKIN:
Arc rays from the welding process produce intense visible and invisible (ultraviolet
and infrared) rays that can burn eyes and skin Sparks fly off from the weld.
 Wear a welding helmet tted with a proper shade of lter to protect your face and
eyes when welding or watching.

Wear approved safety glasses with side shields under your helmet.
Use protective screens or barriers to protect others from flash and glare; warn others not to watch
the arc.
Wear protective clothing made from durable, flame resistant material (leather and wool) and foot
protection.
WELDING CAN CAUSE FIRE OR EXPLOSION:
Welding on closed containers, such as tanks, drums or pipes, can cause them to
blow up. Sparks can fly off from the welding arc. The flying sparks, hot workpiece,
and hot equipment can cause re and burns. Accidental contact of electrode to
metal objects can cause sparks, explosion, overheating, or re. Check and be sure
the area is safe before doing any welding.
Protect yourself and others from flying sparks and hot metal.
Do not weld where flying sparks can strike flammable material.
Remove all flammables within 35 ft (10.7 m) of the welding arc. If this is not possible, tightly cover
them with approved covers.
Be alert that welding sparks and hot materials from welding can easily go through small cracks and
openings to adjacent areas.
 Watch for re, and keep a re extinguisher nearby.
 Be aware that welding on a ceiling, floor, bulkhead, or partition can cause re on the hidden side.
Do not weld on closed containers such as tanks, drums, or pipes unless they are properly prepared
accoring to AWS F4.1 (see Safety Standards).
Connect work cable to the work as close to the welding area as practical to prevent welding current
from travelling long, possibly unknown paths and causing electric shock and re hazards.
Do not use welder to thaw frozen pipes.
Remove stick electrode from holder or cut off welding wire at contact tip when not in use.
Wear oil-free protective garments such as leather gloves, heavy shirt, cuffless trousers, high shoes,
and a cap.
Remove any combustibles, such as a butane lighter or matches, from your person before doing any
welding.
FLYING METAL CAN INJURE EYES:
Welding, chipping, wire brushing, and grinding cause sparks and flying metal. As
welds cool, they can throw off slag.
Wear approved safety glasses with side shields even under your welding helmet.
BUILDUP OF GAS CAN INJURE OR KILL:
Shut off shielding gas supply when not in use.
 Always ventilate conned spaces or use approved air-supplied respirator.
HOT PARTS CAN CAUSE SEVERE BURNS:
Do not touch hot parts bare handed.
Allow cooling period before working on gun or torch.
MAGNETIC FIELDS CAN AFFECT PEACEMAKERS:
Pacemaker wearers keep away.
Wearers should consult their doctor before going near arc welding, gouging, or
spot welding operations.

www.celette.com Page No: 7
NOISE CAN DAMAGE HEARING:
Noise from some processes or equipment can damage hearing.
Wear approved ear protection if noise level is high.
CYLINDERS CAN EXPLODE IF DAMAGED:
Shielding gas cylinders contain gas under high pressure. If damaged, a cylinder can
explode. Since gas cylinders are normally part of the welding process, be sure to
treat them carefully.
Protect compressed gas cylinders from excessive heat, mechanical shocks, slag, open flames,
sparks, and arcs.
Install cylinders in an upright position by securing to a stationary support or cylinder rack to prevent
falling or tipping.
Keep cylinders away from any welding or other electrical circuits.
Never drape a welding torch over a gas cylinder.
Never allow a welding electrode to touch any cylinder.
Never weld on a pressurized cylinder - explosion will result.
 Use only correct shielding gas cylinders, regulators, hoses, and ttings designed for the specic
application; maintain them and associated parts in good condition.
Turn face away from valve outlet when opening cylinder valve.
Keep protective cap in place over valve except when cylinder is in use or connected for use.

3. INSTALLATION:
3.1 SETUP:
Place the machine in a ventilated area.
Dust, dirt, or any other foreign material that might enter the machine may restrict the ventilation which
could affect the machine’s performance. Fasten the rotating support to the machine top and x the handle,
the wheels, the bottle support and, if any, the cooling unit.
3.2 INPUT POWER CONNECTIONS:
All sections concerning the installation of this machine must be read carefully.
This machine must be installed by skilled personnel.
Make sure that the input power plug has been disconnected before inspecting, maintaining, or servicing.
Connect the yellow-green wire to a good electrical ground.
Do not use water pipes as earth conductor.
After a nal inspection, the machine should be connected to the input supply voltage marked on the
input power cord.
If you wish to change the input supply voltage, remove the right side panel , locate the voltage-
changing terminal board and arrange the connections as shown in ILLUSTRATION OF WORKING
PRINCIPLE.
After having changed the supply voltage, re-place the upper cover.
This machine must never be used without the top and side covers. This is both for obvious safety reasons
and to avoid interference with the machine’s internal cooling system. The warranty is to be considered
null and void it this machine is used without the protection of its top and side covers.
Mount a plug on the power supply cable that corresponds to the input power drawn by the machine.
3.3 OUTPUT CONNECTIONS:
3.3.1 Wire feeder connection:
This power source is compatible with the wire feeders. To connect the power source to the wire feeder
units use the extension art. Performances and operating features of the wire feeder are described in the
operating manuals supplied with the wire feeder itself.
3.3.2 Connecting the work return lead clamp:
Some versions have one impedance socket only.
Connect the male end of the work return lead to one of the impedance taps on the front panel of the
machine. The impedance tap designated by the provides the maximum amount of impedance
which will produce nicely lleted weld beads. This tap is recommended when welding aluminum, stainless
steel, and carbon steels of binary or ternary composition. The impedance tap designated by the
provides the least amount of impedance and is recommended when using carbon dioxide as a shielding
gas to weld carbon steels, in the upwards vertical position, of binary or ternary composition.
It is generally advisable to use low impedance values for small diameter wires and high values for big
diameter wires.
After having selected the proper impedance tap, attach the work return clamp to the work to be welded.
Make sure that the ground clamp is tightly fastened to the work return cable and periodically check that
this connection remains well tightened. A loose connection can cause weld current drops or overheating
of the work return lead and clamp which, in turn, creates the risk of burns from accidental contact with
the work return lead. The weld circuit must not be placed deliberately in direct or indirect contact with the
ground conductor if it is not in the work to be welded.

www.celette.com Page No: 11
If the work to be welded is attached deliberately to the ground by a protection lead, then the connection
must be the most direct possible and it must be done using a lead that has a cross section that is at least
equal to the cross section of the work return lead being used for the weld circuit. The protection lead
must also be attached to the work at the same spot as the work return lead. To do so, a second ground
clamp, tted to the protection lead, must be attached next to the ground clamp of the work return lead.
3.3.3 Connecting the gas hose:
Keep the cylinders in an upright position by chaining them to their support.
Keep the cylinders in a place where they cannot be damaged.
Do not lift the machine with the cylinder on its support.
Keep the cylinder away from the welding area and uninsulated electric circuits.
Cylinders containing inert gas have to be equipped with a pressure reducer and a flow meter.
After having positioned the cylinder, connect the gas hose that comes out from the rear of machine to the
pressure reducer output.
Regulate the gas flow to 8-10 L/min.
4.1 INSTALLATION AND STARTER:
Machine installation must be done by a competent staff. All connections must correspond to the rules in
force and must respect laws concerning accidents.
Check that the wire diameter corresponds to that indicated on the roll and mount the wire coil.
Connect the pipe coming out of the extension with the cylinder flow meter.
Position the welding machine so as to allow free air circulation inside it and avoid that metal or any other.
4.2 THE MACHINE IS READY TO WELD:
Connect the ground terminal to the part to be welded.
Turn the machine on.
Extract the conic gas nozzle by rotating it clockwise.
Unscrew the current nozzle.
Press the torch trigger to feed the wire until it comes out from the torch.
WARNING: Keep your face away from the terminal nozzle while the wire comes out.
Screw the current nozzle again, making sure that the hole diameter be the same as that the wire used.
Insert the welding conic gas nozzle by rotating it clockwise. Open the gas cylinder and adjust flowmeter at
8-10L/min.
WARNING: Check that the gas used is compatible with the material to be welded.
4. WELDING:

www.celette.com Page No: 12
4.3 WELDING CARBON STEEL:
To weld carbon steels the following things are necessary:
1. The use of a binary shielding gas which is most commonly Argon and Carbon dioxide, in a ratio of
75-80 % Argon and 20-25% Carbon dioxide. Some applications, however, may require a mix of three
gases: Argon, Carbon dioxide (CO2), and dioxide (O2). These gas mixtures generate heat during
welding and as a result the weld bead will be well lleted and neat in appearance. The penetration,
however, will not be deep.
The use of Carbon dioxide as the shield gas results in a narrow weld bead with deep penetration but
the ionization of the gas will have an influence on arc stability.
2. The use of a ller wire of the same quality as the steel to be welded. It is recommended that high
quality wires be used and that welding with rusted wires be avoided because they can give rise to
defects in the weld bead. Generally, the current range within which a wire can be used is calculated in
the following manner:
Ø of wire x 100= minimum number of Amperes.
Ø of wire x 200= maximum number of Amperes.
Practical example: 1.20 Ø wire= 120 Amps minimum and 240 Amps maximum. These amperages are
based on the use of an Argon/CO2mixture as the shield gas and welding in the Short Arc transfer mode.
3. Avoid welding on rusted work pieces or work having spots of oil and grease present on the surface.
4. The use of a welding torch suitable to the welding currents that are going to be used.
5. Periodically check that the two handles making up the ground clamp are not damaged and that the
welding cables (torch cable and the work return lead) do not have any cuts or burn marks that would
reduce their efciency.
4.4 WELDING STAINLESS STEEL:
Welding stainless steels in the 300 series (the austenitic series) must be done using a shield gas mixture
of predominantly Argon with a small percentage of O2 added to stabilize the arc. The recommended
mixture is AR/O2 in the ratio of 98/2. Do not use CO2 or AR/CO2 mixtures as the shield gas.
Do not touch the welding wire with your bare hands.
The ller metal (the wire) must be of a higher quality than the work to be welded and the weld area must
be clean.
4.5 WELDING ALUMINIUM:
The following is required for aluminum welding:
1. 100% Argon as welding protection gas.
2. A torch wire of composition suitable for the basic material to be welded.
For ALUMAN welding wire 3.5% silicon.
For ANTICORODAL welding wire 3.5% silicon.
For PERALUMAN welding wire 5% magnesium.
For ERGAL welding wire 5% magnesium.
3. A torch prepared for aluminum welding.
If you only have a torch for steel wires, the same shall be modied in the following way:
Make sure that length of torch cable does not exceed 118 inches (it is advisable not to use longer torches).
Remove the brass sheath-holding nut, the gas and the current nozzles, then slip the sheath off.
Insert the teflon sheath for aluminum and ensure it protrudes from both ends.
Screw the current nozzle so that the sheath adheres to it.
Insert the sheath holding nipple, the O-Ring in the free end of the sheath and secure with the nut
without tightening too much.

www.celette.com Page No: 13
5. WELDING DEFECTS:
Slip the brass tube on the sheath and insert both into the adapter (after removing the iron tube which
was tted inside the adaptor).
Cut the sheath diagonally so that it stays as close as possible to the wire slide roller.
4. Use drive rolls that are suitable for aluminum wire. The drive rolls, when being installed, must be
tightened as tight as possible.
5. Use contact tips that are suitable for aluminum wire and make sure that the diameter of the contact tip
hole corresponds to the wire diameter that is going to be used.
6. Use abrasive grinders and tool brushes specically designed for aluminum. Never use these tools on
other materials. REMEMBER that cleanliness equals quality.
The wire spools must be stored in plastic bags with a dehumidier.
DEFECT 1: Porosity (In, or on the surface of the weld bead)
CAUSES: Bad wire (rust on the surface)
Insufcient gas shielding due to:
Inadequate gas flow due to a block in gas line
Defective flow meter
Gas regulator covered with frost because a gas heater was not used to heat the CO2
shielding gas
Failure of gas valve solenoid
Gas nozzle plugged up with splatter
Gas flow holes plugged up
Air drafts in the welding area
DEFECT 2: Shrinkage Cracks
CAUSES: Welding wire or work to be welded dirty or rusty
Weld bead too smal
Weld bead too concave
Too much weld bead penetration
DEFECT 3: Lateral Cracking
CAUSES: Welding speed too fast
Low current and high arc voltages
DEFECT 4: Too much Spatter
CAUSES: Voltage too high
Insufcient impedance
No gas heater used for CO2 shielding gas

www.celette.com Page No: 14
6. MACHINE MAINTENANCE:
GAS NOZZLE: Periodically clean the nozzle of all weld spatter that may have accumulated during
welding operations If the nozzle should become distorted or oval in shape then it
must be replaced.
CONTACT TIP: A good contact between the contact tip and the wire ensures a stable arc and optimal
current output. Therefore, following steps must be followed:
1. The contact tip hole must be kept free of dirt or oxidation.
2. After lengthy welds, spatter can easily accumulate on the contact tip and prevent the
wire from being fed. The contact tip must be cleaned regularly and if necessary it
must be replaced.
3. The contact tip must always be screwed tightly on to the body of the torch. The
thermal cycles which the torch undergoes during operation may loosen the contact
tip which, in turn, may cause the torch body and nozzle to overheat or cause
unsteady wire feed.
THE WIRE LINER: It is an important part that must often be checked since, during normal operations,
the wire can deposit copper dust or tiny metal shavings in the lining. Periodically clean
the liner and the gas line with a jet of dry, compressed air. Wire liners are exposed to
continual wear and therefore they must be replaced after a certain period of time.
WIRE FEED MOTOR: Periodically clean the wire feed assembly and the drive rolls from any rust or metal
shavings due to the feeding of the wire. A periodic check of all the components of
the wire feed assembly, spool holder, drive rolls, wire liner and the contact tip is
recommended.

NOTE: All repair work must be done by qualied personnel.
Disconnect the power input cable from the mains supply before replacing cables or before removing the
unit covers. The machine is equipped with a thermostat that shuts the machine down when the power
source overheats. After the thermostat intervenes, let the power source cool down for several minutes
before resuming welding operations.
The troubleshooting table lists troubles, causes and remedies for those troubles that occur most
commonly.

8. WELDING MACHINE SERVICING:
Experience has shown that many fatal accidents originated from servicing improperly executed. For this
reason, a careful and thorough inspection on a serviced welding machine is just as important as one
carried out on a new welding machine.
Furthermore, in this way producers can be protected from being held responsible for defects stemming
from repairs not carried out by the manufacturer.
8.1 Prescriptions to follow for servicing:
After rewinding the transformer or the inductance, the welding machine must pass the applied-voltage
test in accordance with indications of the international standard.
If the servicing is not done by the manufacturers, the repaired welding machines which underwent
replacements or modications of any component shall be marked in a way such that the identity of the
person having serviced it is clear.
After making repairs, take care to re-order the cables so that there is sure to be insulation between the
primary and secondary sides of the machine. Make sure that the wires cannot come into contact with
moving parts or parts that heat during operation. Replace all clamps in their original positions on the
machine, to prevent a connection between the primary and secondary circuits if a conductor accidentally
breaks or disconnects.
