NOTE! Mount the lower feed roll, ensuring that the pin on the shaft ts in the cut on the feed roll.
2.8 Installation of welding gun
Make sure the gun wire conduit and the contact tip match the manufacturer’s
recommendations for the type and diameter of wire you use. Too small a conduit may
overload the wire feed device and impede the wire feeding. Tighten the gun’s quick connector
to eliminate voltage loss. A loose joint will heat up the gun and wire heater.
NOTE! Never use defected gun.
2.9 Mounting and locking of wire reel
LOCKED OPEN
• Release locking nails of wire reel hub by turning locking knob a quarter round.
• Mount the reel at its place. Note rotating direction of reel!
• Lock the reel with locking knob, locking nails of hub remain to outside position and will
lock the reel.

EN
2.10 Automatic wire feed to gun
Automatic wire feed makes change of wire reel more rapid. In reel change the pressure of feed
rolls need not to be released and ller wire goes automatically to correct wire line.
• Make sure that groove of feed roll matches the diameter of welding wire used.
• Release the wire end from reel and cut o the bent length. Be careful that the wire does
not spill from the reel to sides!
• Straighten about 20 cm of the wire and see that the end of it has no sharp edges (le
o if necessary). A sharp edge may damage the wire guide tube and contact tip of the
welding gun.
• Draw a bit of loose wire from wire reel. Feed wire through back liner to feed rolls. Do not
release pressure of feed rolls!
• Press the gun switch and feed a bit wire until wire goes through feed rolls to gun. See
that wire is in grooves of both feed roll pairs!
• Press still the gun switch until wire has come through contact tip.
Automatic feed may sometimes fail with thin wires (Fe, Fc, Ss: 0,6...0,8 mm, Al: 0,8...1,0 mm). In
that case you might have to open feed rolls and feed wire manually through feed rolls.
NOTE! Check that the wire or wire reel does not touch the equipment body, there is a danger of
short circuit
2.11 Adjustment of pressure
Adjust the pressure of the feed rolls with the control screw so that the wire is fed into the wire
guide tube evenly and allows a little braking when emerging from the contact tip, without
slipping on the feed rolls.
NOTE! Excessive pressure will cause the ller wire to atten and damage its coating, as well as
undue wear and tear of the feed rolls and friction damage.
2.12 Adjustment of tightness of spool brake
Brake force can be adjusted through the hole in the spool hub’s locking device of spool hub by
screwing the control screw with a screwdriver. Adjust the braking force so that it is sucient
to prevent the wire from becoming too loose on the spool and spilling when the spool stops
rotating. The greater the wire feed speed, the greater the braking force required. Do not keep
the brake unnecessarily tight, since this will impose a strain on the motor.

2.13 Shielding gas
The MIG shielding gas consists of carbon dioxide, mixed gases and argon. Shielding gas
ow rate is determined by the amount of welding current. The typical ow rate of gas in the
welding steel is 8–15 l /min.

The following installation instructions are valid for most gas ow regulator types:
1. Step aside and open the bottle valve (A) for a while to blow out possible impurities.
2. Turn the press regulation screw (B) of the regulator until no spring pressure can be felt.
3. Close the needle valve if there is one in the regulator.
4. Install the regulator onto bottle valve and tighten the connecting nut (C) with a wrench.
5. Install the hose spindle (D) and jacket nut (E) into the gas hose and tighten with a hose
clamp.
6. Connect the hose with the regulator and the other end with the wire feed unit. Tighten
jacket nut.
7. Open the bottle valve slowly. The gas bottle pressure meter (F) shows bottle pressure.
Note! Do not use the whole contents of the bottle. The bottle pressure should be lled
when bottle pressure is 2 bar.
8. Open the needle valve if there is one in the regulator.
9. Turn the regulation screw (B) until the hose pressure meter (G) displays the required ow
(or pressure). When regulating the ow amount, the power source should be switched
on and the "GAS PURGE" -switch pressed simultanously.
Close the bottle valve after welding is nished. If the machine will not be in use for a long
time, unscrew the pressure regulation screw.
NOTE! Always fasten the gas cylinder securely in an upright position on a wall rack intended for the
purpose or on a cylinder cart. Always close the cylinder valve after you have nished welding.

3. OPERATION
3.1 Main switch and signal lights
With the switch in the‘I’ position, the primary and control circuits of the machine become
live and the‘ON’signal light on the panel lights up. The welding circuit receives voltage when
the gun switch is operated or when the wire feed test switch is pressed. Always use the main
switch to turn the machine on and o with the main switch; do not use the power plug for this
purpose.
3.2 To select polarity for welding
Solid wire is usually welded in the +pole and gasfree ller wires in the - pole gun. When
welding with other ller wires, check for the recommended polarity on the package or consult
the supplier of the product. The welding of very thin steelplates (0.5 to 0.7 mm) a - polarity
might also work best for solid wire.
3.2.1 Changing the polarity

3.3.1 Choosing start switch function
MIG welding by 4-function start switch, MIG 4T
MIG welding by 2 function start switch, MIG 2T
3.3.2 Choosing the welding method
Normal MIG/MAG welding:
With a separate wire feed and voltage regulation can be chosen in the 1-MIG position. Curve
number“00” provides a free wire feed range between 1-18 m/min. The voltage can be set
between special pre-programmed limits depending on the wire feed. Curve number“01” wire
feed speed and voltage are not depended on each other. When curve“01” is selected, the wire
feed speed and voltage will be independent of one another.
Synergic MIG/MAG welding (1-MIG)
Synergic MIG/MAG welding (1-MIG): MIG welding in which the wire feed speed determines all
the other welding parameter values, allowing the adjustment of welding power with a single
knob. Choose the appropriate synergy curve for the ller wire and shielding gas to determine
how the wire feed speed aects the pulse parametres.

EN
Synergic Pulse MIG welding:
through this welding method, based on pulsing the welding current, the ller metal on the
workpiece is kept spatter-free. The power source pulse parameters change automatically
(synergy) enabling welding power regulation using a single knob. Choose the appropriate
synergy curve for the ller wire and shielding gas to determine how the wire feed speed
aects the pulse parametres.
Double pulse:
The wire feed will become higher or lower according to the wire feed range. While the
synergic welding parameters change to correspond to the momentary wire speed. The
purpose is to get a goodlooking weld and a proper penetration while improving the
controllability of the weld pool during position welding.
3.3.3 Selecting 1-MIG/Pulse MIG synergy curves
The program number of the synergy curve is selected using the plus-minus buttons and is
displayed on "SYNERGIC PRG".
The middle display is actual material group display (eg. SS, AL, CUS, FE, GEN). Wire diameter
(mm) can be seen on the right side. This information will only be displayed for a while.
The“PRG INFO” button gives more curve information:
One press will revert to the material group and diameter display, a second will display the type
number of the material and a third run through the gas consistency components one by one.

Changing parameters
By pressing the 2T/4T (SETUP) selection switch a little longer the machine will enter the SETUP
state. The display will show the set parameter’s runnning number (blinking), its abbreviation
and value. Select the parameter number using the“SYNERGIC PRG”+ and - buttons or the
“SETUP” button (which will jump by tens). Change the value using the control button (in some
cases, the value can be found from the synergy curve).“Syn”and the curve value will blink by
turns on the right of the display. Set the value by turning the button anticlockwise.
Exit for SETUP using a long press.
Frequency and amplitude of double pulse can be set in the separate‘SET’ mode, obtained
by rst pressing the 2T/4T (SETUP) and, without releasing it, the method button.“dFr”and
the frequency in Hz will be displayed.“Syn”will appear if the frequency is based on synergy
curves. Change this value by turning the control button anticlockwise. Press it twice to display
“dA” i.e. the amplitude (m/min). Adjust this accordingly and exit SETUP by pressing any button
other than SETUP.
3.3.13Error codes
Error codes are among others the following:
Err 3: Overvoltages in the mains supply. Also the pilot light of overvoltage is lighting.
Err 4: The thermal protection of power suorce has stopped welding. Also the pilot light of
thermal protection is lighting.
Err 5: The cooling device has stopped welding.
Err 6: The terminal voltage has rised. Take the device to service.
Err 153: Liquid cooled PMT- or WS-gun is overheated. Or torch-PTC or RMT10 has beeb
installed, but the jumber inside the torch is in FU-position, look also instruction of torch.
Err 154: Overloading of the wire feed motor
Error code is eliminated when the reason is aborted, except Err 6, which demands to turn
down the machine.
3.4 Cooling unit operation (KempactCool 10)
The operation of cooling units KempactCool 10 is controlled by the power source. The cooling
unit pump starts automatically when welding starts. Proceed as follows:
• Start power source.
• Check water level and input ow of the reservoir, add liquid if needed.
• If you use a water-cooled gun you can ll it with cooling liquid by pressing TEST-button
(on cooling unit).
The pump operates for 5 another minutes after welding has been nished to cool the liquid to
the same temperature as in the machine surrounds. This reduces the need of service.
