3) SAFETY SUGGESTIONS
It is forbi en for people with PACEMAKERS to use or come near the machine. When
wel ing near sensitive electronics, for example in hospitals or assiste living homes or aroun
computers or computer control mo ules in vehicles, we STRONGLY recommen turning off
HF (high-frequency arc start). Even an AC arc on a mo ern inverter can be ignite in lift-arc
mo e! HF travels long istances, 10 to 20 feet are very common in some instances, an HF can
interfere with electronics in neighboring buil ings if they are on the same transformer! Unlike
regular wel ing currents, that travel the path of least resistance, HF is unpre ictable.
Electric arc wel ing pro uces ultra-violet rays, which are harmful to skin an eyes.
Ultra-violet ra iation can penetrate lightweight clothing, reflect from light-colore surfaces, an
burn the skin an eyes.
- Wear a heavy, pocket-less, long-sleeve shirt, cuff-less trousers, an high-toppe work shoes.
- Wear a full-face wel ing helmet with a number ten or arker lens an a cap.
Electric arc wel ing pro uces flying sparks an hot material, which can cause fire.
- To avoi fire, o not wel on woo , plastic tile, or carpete floors. Concrete or masonry floors are
safest.
- Do not wel on pressurize containers.
- Do not wel on rums, barrels, tanks, or other containers until they have been cleare an cleane
as escribe in AWS Stan ar A6.01.
- Do not wear flammable materials.
- Wear non-oily/non-greasy, flameproof wel ing gloves; the oil or grease on the gloves may ignite.
- Avoi having any type of fuel, such as cigarette lighters or matches, on your person as you wel .
- Ensure that there is a fire extinguisher in the wel ing area.
Electric arc wel ing pro uces toxic fumes.
- Provi e a equate ventilation in the wel ing area at all times.
- Do not wel on galvanize zinc, ca mium, or lea beryllium materials unless you are POSITIVE
that sufficient ventilation is provi e . These materials pro uce toxic fumes.
- Do no wel in areas close to egreasing or spraying operations. Chlorinate hy rocarbon vapors
may react with the ultra-violet rays an form highly toxic phosphate gas.

- If you evelop eye, nose, or throat irritation uring wel ing, stop wel ing imme iately. This is an
in ication that ventilation is not a equate. Do not continue to wel until ventilation is improve .
ELECTRIC SHOCK CAN KILL.
Expose , electrically hot con uctors, other bare metal in the wel ing circuit, or ungroun e ,
electrically hot equipment can fatally shock a person whose bo y becomes a con uctor. Do not
stan , sit, lie, lean on, or touch a wet surface when wel ing.
- Disconnect the power supply before working on the wel ing machine.
- Do not work with eteriorate or amage cables.
- Frequently inspect cables for wear, cracks, an amage. Replace those with excessively worn
insulation to avoi a possible lethal shock from bare cable.
- Do not touch bare electrical parts.
- Ensure that all of the panels covering the wel ing machine are firmly secure in place when the
machine is connecte to the power supply.
- Insulate yourself from the workbench an from the floor (groun ); use insulating footwear an
gloves.
- Keep gloves, footwear, clothes, the work area, an the wel ing equipment clean an ry.
- Check the machine power cable frequently; the power cable must be free from amage to the
insulation. BARE CABLES ARE DANGEROUS. Do not use the machine if the power cable is
amage ; a amage power cable must be replace imme iately.
- If it is necessary to open the machine, first isconnect the power supply an then wait Five (5)
Minutes to allow the capacitors to ischarge. Failure to take this precaution may expose you to the
angerous risk of electric shock.
Noise can amage your hearing. Protect yourself suitably to avoi hearing amage.
The wel ing arc can cause burns. Keep the tip of the wel ing gun/torch far from your bo y an
from other persons.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
Your REVOLUTION 2500 operates to its full capacity on single-phase, 230V power (208V-240V). IT can
be run on 110/120 volt with re uce output. The machine raws 30 amps (230 volts) from of the wall when
operating at maximum output. We recommen a 30 Amp breaker for maximum performance. If you operate
the machine on a generator, it nee s to be a clean power generator with a minimum of 7500 watts. 7500
watts must be the “continuous” rating or “running watts” rating of the generator, NOT the “peak” rating or
“starting watts” rating of the generator. If you operate the machine on an extension cor , the wire size of the
cor nee s to be at least 10AWG an shoul not excee a length of 100’ regar less if you operate the
machine on 110/120 or 220/240 volt.
The machine is from the factory equippe with a NEMA6-50 plug an will plug into a matching receptacle
an is “rea y to be powere on”. For the first few secon s you will see the message PF0 flashing in the
isplay, the machine is now evaluating which voltage is supplie to the machine an will make internal
a justments. After this PF0 message flashes a few times it will go away, an the machine will go to the
regular operating screen. The machine is rea y to wel now.
To operate the machine on 110/120 volt please use a apter plug (HTP part number 5 5P650R 8) to a apt
to 110/120 volt. To operate the machine on 110/120 Volt simply plug machine into the wall outlet, wait for
the PF0 message to clear an the machine is rea y to be use now. There are no switches to switch, no
mo ifications nee e the machine will automatically i entify the input voltage an work properly.
When operating this machine on 110/120volt please use a e icate circuit (no other lights or grin ers or any
other appliances shall share the circuit with the wel ing machine). The REVOLUTION 2500 can be operate
on a 15amp 110/120volt circuit but with even more limitations in regar on maximum output an uty cycle,
for best results wel ing on 110/120 volt a e icate 20amp circuit is recommen e . On a 120volt 20amp
circuit the maximum output of the machine is 120A MIG, 110A Stick an 150A Tig. For more etaile specs
please refer to the ata plate on your machine.

WAVE FORMS
SQUARE WAVE: The stan ar wave form for all mo ern inverter TIG wel ing machines. The
square wave offers excellent power, arc control, an bea appearance. A goo choice, all aroun ,
for aluminum wel ing. When in use, some operators may perceive the square wave soun as lou
an unpleasant. However, many operators prefer to use a square wave ue to its superior
performance an features, such as the ability to run pulse.
Triangular Wave: The triangular wave form allows you to reach maximum peak current while
ramatically re ucing the overall heat input. When using a triangular wave form, the machine can
be configure to show either the maximum (peak) amperage or the overall (actual) amperage
wel ing output on the LCD. The Amperage isplay (re numeric; above LCD) always shows the
max (nominal/peak) amperage. Rapi formation of melting points re uces the overall wel ing time,
which, in turn, alleviates istortion—especially when wel ing thin material. The triangular wave
creates a fast freezing pu le, which results in superior control an heat input management. Pulse
functions are unavailable in Triangular AC.
AC Balance
Balance refers to the time the arc spen s above or, in the case of HTP machines, below the zero
line. What oes that mean? Imagine you wel AC an you set your frequency not to 100Hz but to
1Hz (1Hz use for the purpose of easy emonstration; the frequency of the Revolution 2500 cannot
be set any lower than 20Hz). Set at 50% balance, your current woul come out of the material an
go into the torch (your electro e positive (EP) part) for 0.5 secon s. For the next 0.5 secon s, your
current woul come out of the torch an go into the material. Let’s say you wel at 100 amps. For
0.5 secon s, you will see 100 amps come out of the material an go into the torch, an for the
following 0.5 secon s, you will see 100 amps come out of the torch an go into the material. Do
you nee 0.5 secon s of electro e positive (EP)/cleaning/breaking open of the oxi e layer? No,
most likely not—that is why you typically on’t wel with a 50% balance. Do you want more
electro e negative (EN)/penetration an to put heat into the material you are wel ing (rather than
the torch)? Yes, absolutely. Most people consi er an EN balance between 60 an 80% the sweet
spot. With balance set too low, the tungsten balls, an with the balance set too high, the wel bea
turns gray, flat, an ull. You may even see some peppering in the wel along with insufficient
cleaning of the oxi e layer. On the Revolution 2500, you can a just the balance from 10 to 90%.
AC Frequency
AC frequency oes two things, mainly. First, AC frequency focuses the arc. Higher frequencies
feature a more focuse arc an a narrower frost line, which works really well on thin material. On
thick material, higher frequencies ten to make it har to join two pieces of material, as the focuse
arc wants to cling to only one piece an not join it to the other piece. Secon , AC frequency affects
heat input. As previously iscusse , higher frequencies result in a lower overall heat input. Lower
frequencies result in a higher overall heat input. In other wor s, thin material prefers higher
frequencies (this is why the Revolution 2500 offers an a justment range from 20 to 400Hz when
operating at an output un er 100 amps), an thicker material prefers lower frequencies. Although
the a justment above 100 amps lets you choose AC frequencies from 20 to 200Hz, at a material
thickness of 1/4”, 1/2”, or even higher, it is not uncommon to see frequencies of 50Hz or less be
use on a regular basis for best results.

Pulse in DC TIG
You typically use the DC pulse function to re uce the heat input when wel ing to prevent istortion
or excessive iscoloring of the base metal. The Amperage isplay shows the maximum amperage,
an you set the backgroun amperage an the peak time (pulse-on time or uty) base on that
maximum amperage. You set both the backgroun amperage an the peak time as a percentage of
the maximum amperage. Peak time refers to the peak pulse current number. The actual uration of
the peak time, in secon s or in fractions of a secon , epen s on the thir variable—the pulse
frequency. The pulse frequency etermines the spee , for lack of a better wor , of the time it takes
to switch between the higher an the lower amperage. There are two schools of thought:
• Use low-spee pulse frequencies between 0.5 an 2.0 PPS (pulses per secon or Hz) to create a
ripple effect in the wel bea . The pulsing can easily be seen by the human eye. When using low-
spee pulse frequencies, you typically will not experience any interference or other technical
ifficulties with either fixe sha e or auto- arkening wel ing helmets.
• Use high-spee pulse frequencies between 25 an 100 PPS to create a smooth wel bea , much
like DC TIG without pulse. The pulsing usually cannot be seen by the human eye. You typically use
high-spee pulse frequencies when wel ing stainless or mil steel out of position, when heat
affecte zones nee to be kept to a minimum, or when warpage or istortion of parts are a concern.
When using auto- arkening wel ing helmets, epen ing on the frequency of the cartri ge in the
wel ing helmet an the frequency you set the machine to, there may be a very narrow ban of
specific frequencies where interferences are possible. Whether interferences happen at all, or at
what frequency the interferences occur at, epen s on the wel ing helmet you use (make, mo el,
etc.); we cannot pre ict who will experience interferences. If, when wel ing, you notice flickering,
change your frequency by +/- 20 PPS an try again.
For most applications, we recommen setting the backgroun amperage to 25% an the peak time
(pulse-on time or uty) to 25%. Example: You set your max amperage to 100 amps, your
backgroun amperage to 25%, an your peak time to 25%. For 25% of the time, you wel at 100
amps, an for 75% of the time, you wel at 25 amps.
Using these settings uring a low-spee pulse application (with the right torch movement an either
no filler or while using a lay wire technique) allows you to pro uce nice ripples. Using these
settings uring a high-spee pulse application allows you to achieve penetration close to what 100
amps of straight DC gives, but with significantly lower heat input an a much more controllable
pu le. Even though you only reach 100 amps 25% of the time, an 25 amps 75% of the time, in a
high-spee pulse scenario it is NOT safe to assume that the first quarter at 100 amps an the secon
through fourth quarters at 25 amps equal 43.75 amps of overall heat input (100 + 25 + 25+ 25 =
175/4 = 43.75). While the math oes not hol true in high-spee pulse applications, the math comes
a lot closer in low-spee pulse applications. In a high-spee pulse application, at a 25 PPS pulse
frequency setting, you intro uce 100 amps into the base material 25 times per secon , an at a 50
PPS pulse frequency setting, you intro uce 100 amps into the base material 50 times per secon .
Even though this occurs for a short or a very short perio of time, the time between the 100 amp
bursts is not long enough to let the material really cool own to an average of 44 amps of heat input.
Nevertheless, a high-spee pulse application is significantly cooler than just DC TIG.
The strongest effects an the best results occur when you set the ifference between the peak
amperage an the backgroun amperage rather high. With the Revolution 2500, you can a just the
pulse frequency from 0.4 to 1000 PPS, the backgroun amps from 10 to 90%, an the peak time
(pulse-on time or uty) from 10 to 90%.

Pulse in Stick
A vantages of Pulse Wel ing
Pulse wel ing inclu es ALL of the following a vantages, but not all at the same time. At a later
point in the manual, we cover, in more etail, suggeste settings regar ing how, when, an where
certain situations apply.
- Visually spatter free (MIG & TIG only, though still re uce spatter when stick wel ing)
- Higher travel spee s
- Deeper penetration
- Less heat input, which equals less material istortion
- Ability to wel thinner material than you coul without pulse
- Superior control of the wel pu le, especially when wel ing out of position
- Easily join materials of iffering thicknesses
- Better gap bri ging when wel ing materials with poor fit up
- Ability to make leak-tight wel s
- Improve bea appearance
- Ability to use one size bigger wel ing ro than normal
- Wel on thinner material without burning through
- Easier for beginner wel ers
Disa vantages of Pulse Wel ing
- Pulse wel ing can interfere with sensitive electronics like pacemakers an auto- arkening wel ing
helmets
- Low pulse frequencies (less than 1.5Hz) can be perceive as unpleasant, soun -wise, by the
operator (TIG an Stick only)
Hot-Start for Stick
Hot-start when stick wel ing gives a short burst of current to light har to strike electro es.
Hot-Start for TIG
The hot-start for TIG function is available in AC an in DC. Hot-start provi es a short (in the range
of millisecon s) burst of current to ignite the arc. Many other wel ing manufacturers offer hot-start,
but they typically on’t give the operator the option to a just hot-start. Hot-start ensures arc starts
with tungsten electro es that are not fresh an pristinely groun , as well as material that is not
perfectly prepare . If your material an torch are in mint con ition, an you wel on very thin
material, you can turn hot-start off. This is very uncommon in the in ustry because most machines
have arc starting ifficulties at low or very low amperages. Some machines even inclu e a hi en,
non-a justable hot-start feature. The ability to turn hot-start off allows you to have a true 4 amp arc
start, which can be extremely important when wel ing thin an critical material.
HF-, LIFT-, & Scratch-Start
When wel ing near sensitive electronics, for example in hospitals or assiste living homes or
aroun computers or computer control mo ules in vehicles, we STRONGLY recommen turning
off HF (high frequency arc start). Even an AC arc on a mo ern inverter can be ignite in lift-arc
mo e! HF travels long istances; 10 to 20’ traveling istances are very common. In some instances,
HF interferes with electronics in neighboring buil ings if they are on the same transformer! Unlike
regular wel ing currents that travel the path of least resistance, HF is unpre ictable.

Lift start, not to be mistaken for scratch-start, can be use to ignite a DC or an AC wel ing arc with
the Revolution 2500. If you use a foot pe al, turn HF off in the menu, an then touch the clean an
col tungsten electro e to the clean material you plan to wel on. Depress the foot pe al a little bit,
at minimum, which activates the contact switch (the more you epress the foot pe al, the easier the
arc will ignite). At this point, NO wel ing current flows through the tungsten, you are not
shortening anything out, an only a very small control current flows through the torch, just sensing
the short circuit. The moment you lift the torch an break the short circuit, the machine applies the
wel ing current an ignites the arc. Typically, the tungsten electro e oes not get contaminate this
way, the arc starts smooth (not violent), an everything is very controllable using the foot pe al. To
choose between HF start an Lift start is more a matter of personal preference an what a person is
use to. When wel ing longer bea s, the ifference might appear negligible to some people, but
when making a bunch of spot or tack wel s, HF is efinitely more comfortable.
