WARNING
Read and understand the instruction manual before installing or operating.
Arc welding and cutting can be injurious to yourself and others. Take precausions when welding.
Ask for your employer’s safety practices which should be based on manufacturers’ hazard data.
ELECTRIC SHOCK - Can kill
SInstall and earth the welding unit in accordance with applicable standards.
SDo not touch live electrical parts or electrodes with bare skin, wet gloves or wet clothing.
SInsulate yourself from earth and the workpiece.
SEnsure your working stance is safe.
FUMES AND GASES - Can be dangerous to health
SKeep your head out of the fumes.
SUse ventilation, extraction at the arc, or both, to take fumes and gases away from your breathing zone
and the general area.
ARC RAYS - Can injure eyes and burn skin.
SProtect your eyes and body. Use the correct welding screen and filter lens and wear protective
clothing.
SProtect bystanders with suitable screens or curtains.
FIRE HAZARD
SSparks (spatter) can cause fire. Make sure therefore that there are no inflammable materials nearby.
NOISE - Excessive noise can damage hearing
SProtect your ears. Use earmuffs or other hearing protection.
SWarn bystanders of the risk.
MALFUNCTION - Call for expert assistance in the event of malfunction.
PROTECT YOURSELF AND OTHERS!
WARNING!
Do not use the power source for thawing frozen pipes.
CAUTION!
Class A equipment is not intended for use in residential locations where
the electrical power is provided by the public low--voltage supply
system. There may be potential difficulties in ensuring electromagnic
compatibility of class A equipment in those locations, due to conducted
as well as radiated disturbances.

5.2 Location
Position the welding power source such that its cooling air inlets and outlets are not
obstructed.
5.3 Mains supply
Note!
Mains supply requirements
High power equipment may, due to the primary current drawn from the mains supply, influence the
power quality of the grid. Therefore connection restrictions or requirements regarding the
maximum permissible mains impedance or the required minimum supply capacity at the interface
point to the public grid may apply for some types of equipment (see technical data). In this case it
is the responsibility of the installer or user of the equipment to ensure, by consultation with the
distrubution network operator if necessary, that the equipment may be connected.
Make sure that the welding power source is connected to the correct supply voltage
and that it is protected by the correct fuse rating. A protective earth connection must
be made in accordance with regulations.
Rating plate with supply connection data
NOTE! The welding power source is designed for connection to a 400 volt
system with four conductors.
If the power source is to be used in countries with a higher or lower supply
voltage, the power source must be connected via a safety transformer.

6 OPERATION
General safety regulations for the handling of the equipment can be found on
page 3. Read through before you start using the equipment!
6.1 Connections and control devices
1Connection for wire feed unit or remote
control unit
4Mains voltage switch 1 / 0
2Connection (--) MIG/MAG: Return cable
TIG: Welding torch
MMA: Return cable or welding cable
5Fuse for supply voltage for feeder unit,
42 V
3Connection (+) MIG/MAG: Welding cable
TIG: Return cable
MMA: Welding cable or return cable
6.2 Connection of welding and return cable
The power source has two outputs, a positive terminal (+) and a negative terminal
(--), for connecting welding and return cables. The output to which the welding cable
is connected depends on the welding method or type of electrode used.
Connect the return cable to the other output on the power source. Secure the return
cable’s contact clamp to the work piece and ensure that there is good contact be-
tween the work piece and the output for the return cable on the power source.
For MMA welding, the welding cable can be connected to the positive terminal (+) or
negative terminal (--) depending on the type of electrode used. The connecting polar-
ity is stated on the electrode packaging.
GB

ba41d1ea
6.3 Fan control
The power source has a time control that means that the fans continue to run for 6.5
minutes after welding has stopped, and the unit switches to energy--saving mode.
The fans start again when welding restarts.
The fans run at reduced speed for welding currents up to 110 A, and at full speed for
higher currents.
6.4 Overheating protection
The welding power source has overheating protection that operates if the
temperature becomes too high. When this occurs the welding current is interrupted
and a fault code is displayed on the control panel.
The overheating protection resets automatically when the temperature has fallen.
6.5 MIG/MAG and FCAW--S welding
An arc melts a continuously supplied wire. The weld pool is protected by shielding
gas.
For MIG/MAG and FCAW--S welding, the power source is supplemented with:
Swire feed unit
Swelding torch
Sconnection cable between power source and wire feed unit
Sgas bottle
To ensure problem--free operation, the installation height from the cooling unit to the
welding gun must be max. 7 m. Heights in excess of this can cause problems, such
as long starting times, air bubbles, vacuums, etc.
If an installation height in excess of 7 m is required, we recommend an installation kit
comprising a non--return valve and a solenoid valve, refer to accessories on page
17. Once these valves have been installed, the hose package must be horizontal
during the initial startup so that everything fills with water. Then raise the wire feed
unit and hose package to the high height. Continued safe operation at installation
heights of up to 12 m can now commence.
6.6 TIG welding
TIG welding melts the metal of the workpiece, using an arc struck from a tungsten
electrode, which does not itself melt. The weld pool and the electrode are protected
by shielding gas.
For TIG welding, the welding power source is supplemented with:
Sa TIG torch with gas valve
San argon gas cylinder
San argon gas regulator
Stungsten electrode
GB

-- 1 1 --
ba41d1ea
”Live TIG--start”
At a ”Live TIG--start” the tungsten electrode is placed against the workpiece. When
the electrode is then lifted away from workpiece, the arc is struck at a limited current
level (12 -- 15 A).
6.7 MMA welding
For welding with coated electrodes, the power source is supplemented with:
Swelding cable with electrode clamp
7 MAINTENANCE
Regular maintenance is important for safe, reliable operation.
Only personnel with the appropriate electrical skills (authorised staff) may remove
safety plates.
CAUTION!
All guarantee undertakings from the supplier cease to apply if the customer himself
attempts any work in the product during the guarantee period in order to rectify any faults.
7.1 Power source
Check regularly that the welding power source is not clogged with dirt.
How often and which cleaning methods apply depend on: the welding process, arc
times, placement and the surrounding environment. It is normally sufficient to blow
the power source clean with dry compressed air (reduced pressure) once a year.
Clogged or blocked air inlets and outlets otherwise result in overheating.
7.2 Welding torch
Wear parts should be cleaned and replaced at regular intervals in order to achieve
trouble--free welding.
GB

ba41d1ea
8 FAULT--TRACING
Try these recommended checks and inspections before sending for an authorized
service technician.
Type of fault Corrective action
No arc SCheck that the mains power supply switch is
turned on.
SCheck that the welding and return cables
are correctly connected.
SCheck that the correct current value is set.
SCheck the mains power supply fuses.
The welding current is interrupted during welding. SCheck whether the overloading protection
has tripped (indicated in the control panel).
SCheck the mains power supply fuses.
The overloading protection trips frequently. SCheck to see whether the dust filter is
clogged.
SMake sure that you are not exceeding the
rated data for the power source (i.e. that the
unit is not being overloaded).
Poor welding performance SCheck that the welding and return cables
are correctly connected.
SCheck that the correct current value is set.
SCheck that the correct wire or electrode is
used.
SCheck the mains power supply fuses.
9 ORDERING SPARE PARTS
Repair and electrical work should be performed by an authorized ESAB serviceman.
Use only ESAB original spare and wear parts.
Mig 3001i is designed and tested in accordance with the international and European
standards EN 60974--1 and EN 60974--10. It is the obligation of the service unit which
has carried out the service or repair work to make sure that the product still conforms
to the said standard.
Spare parts may be ordered through your nearest ESAB dealer, see the last page of
this publication.
