The specications and designs presented in this manual are subject to change without prior
notice.
In this document, for danger to life or injury the following symbol is used:
Read the warning texts carefully and follow the instructions. Please also study the Operation safety
instructions and respect them when installing, operating and servicing the machine.
1.2. PROdUCT INTROdUCTION
Fastcool 10 is a cooling unit designed for FastMig-welding equipment and to be used for cooling
welding gun. The operation of Fastcool is controlled by a microprocessor.
1.3. OPERATION SAFETy
Please study these Operation safety instructions and respect them when installing, operating and
servicing the machine.
Welding arc and spatters
Welding arc hurts unprotected eyes. Be careful also with reecting arc ash. Welding arc and
spatter burn unprotected skin. Use safety gloves and protective clothing.
Danger for re or explosion
Pay attention to re safety regulations. Remove ammable or explosive materials from welding
place. Always reserve sufcient re-ghting equipment on welding place. Be prepared for hazards
in special welding jobs, eg. for the danger of re or explosion when welding container type work
pieces. Note! Fire can break out from sparks even several hours after the welding work has been
nished!
Mains voltage
Never take welding machine inside a work piece (eg. container or truck). Do not place welding
machine on a wet surface. Always check cables before operating the machine. Change defect cables
without delay. Defect cables may cause an injury or set out a re. Connection cable must not be
compressed, it must not touch sharp edges or hot work pieces.
Welding power circuit
Isolate yourself by using proper protective clothing, do not wear wet clothing. Never work on a
wet surface or use defect cables. Do not put MIG-gun or welding cables on welding machine or
on other electric equipment. Do not press MIG-gun switch, if the gun is not directed towards a
work piece.
Welding fumes
Take care that there is sufcient ventilation during welding. Take special safety precautions when
welding metals which contain lead, cadmium, zinc, mercury or beryllium.

2. INSTALLATION
2.1. REMOvAL FROM PACkAGING
The equipment is packed in durable packages specially designed for them. Check the equipment
before taking it into use, to make sure that the equipment or a part of it have not got damaged
during the transportation. Also check that the delivery corresponds your order and that you have
received all the necessary instructions for installing and operating the equipment. The packaging
material can be recycled.
2.2. LOCATING ThE MAChINE
Place the machine on a horizontal, stable and clean ground. Protect the machine from heavy rain
and burning sunshine. Check that there is enough space for cooling air circulation in front of and
behind the machine.
2.3. SERIAL NUMbER
The serial number of the machine is marked on the machine CE-marking. Identicating the serial
number is the only proper means of maintaining and identifying parts for a specic product. It is
important to make correct reference to the serial number of the product when making repairs or
ordering spare parts.
2.4. INSTALLATION ANd MAIN PARTS
2.4.1. Assembling the equipment
The equipment is assembled in the following order:

2.5. PREPARING FOR OPERATION
Cooling liquid is injurious! Avoid also contact with skin or eyes. In case of injury,
seek for medical advice.
See also 2.4.2. Main parts of cooling unit.
1. Connect the mains voltage and control connectors of the cooler unit to the corresponding
connectors on the base of the power supply. The connection can be established through the
base of the power supply when the devices are separated or through the right side of the
FastMig 10 cooler by removing the right side plate.
2. Attach the power supply on the FastMig 10 cooler.
3. Connect the cooling water hoses with the wire feed unit, follow colour markings.
4. Fill the reservoir with a 40 - 20 % mixture of etanol and water, or with any other suitable
antifreeze agent. The capacity of the reservoir is 3 litres.
5. Switch on the power supply.
6. Press and hold down the test switch until the torch hoses are lled with liquid.
7. Device is ready to weld.
3. OPERATION
3.1. COOLER OPERATION
See also 2.4.2. Main parts of cooling unit
FastMig 10 Cooler operation is controlled by the microprocessor of the power supply. The cooler
pump starts to operate when the welding begins. After the welding has stopped, the pump will
operate 1 to 5 minutes longer depending on the welding time. During this time the liquid will cool
down to the surrounding temperature. If the pump is stopped, the need for maintenance of the
cooler will be reduced.
Check the tank liquid level regularly and ll in liquid, if necessary.
If the liquid ow is blocked, a hose is blocked or folded, or the container has ran out of liquid the
welding is stopped and error code, Err 5, appears on the FastMig panel.
3.2. OvERhEAT SIGNAL LAMP
The overheat signal lamp is lighting when temperature control of the machine has detected cooling
water overheat. The ventilator cools down the machine and when the lamp goes out welding can
be started again.
3.3. STORAGE
The machine must be stored in a clean and dry room. Protect the machine from rain and keep it
away from direct sunshine in places where temperature exceeds +25 °C. Check that there is free
space in front of and behind the machine for air circulation.
4. MAINTENANCE
Watch out for mains voltage when handling electric cables!
In planning product maintenance machine utilization degree and circumstances should be
considered. Careful use and preventive maintenance help to avoid unnecessary production
disturbances and breaks.

• Check water level and input ow, add liquid if needed.
• Check cables and connections. Tighten, if necessary and replace defect parts
4.2. EvERy SIXTh MONThS
The following maintenance opeations should be carried out at least every sixth months:
• Clean off dust and dirt. Change the cooling liquid and wash up the pipes and water reservoir
