Part 3: Simple test for powering on the machine
MIG200 Welding machines will be subjected to strict various tests when they leave the factory to ensure that
each welding machine that reaches the user is of high quality, because our machine has to go through tens of
thousands of kilometers of long-distance transportation from the factory to the delivery to you. It’s inevitable that some
uncontrollable factors will cause some internal components of the machine to become loose or even damaged in the
process. We recommend that you check the external device as soon as you get the welder, and turn on the power to
check to ensure that you receive It is a qualified product.
Precautions for power-on inspection:
1、Please make sure that the output voltage of your power supply is 110V+-15% or 220+-15%. MIG200D supports
110V and 220V input voltage in North America and Japan, and only supports 220V input voltage in other places;
if you are powered by a generator, Please make sure that the generator is not less than 5000w.
2、It is recommended to choose 30A circuit breaker protection when input voltage is AC 220V. It is recommended
to choose 50A circuit breaker protection when input voltage is AC 110V.
3、Please choose the power plug that suits your local electrical law requirements.
4、Extension cord: #12 AWG or larger; 25’ (8m) or shorter.
Turn on the power switch of the machine and the fan on the back of the machine rotates, and the digital
display on the panel indicates that the power is normal.
Note:
1) The digital display shows irregular changes at the beginning, and then returns to the digital display after 3
seconds, which is normal.
2) In order to reduce the working temperature of the machine, it is normal for the fan to continue to rotate for a

Version Number: MIG200-20210914A1
4
few seconds after the power is turned off.
3) During high-strength continuous welding, machine protection may occur. After continuous heat dissipation,
the machine will return to normal, which is normal.
Attached table: Self-examination of abnormal conditions without response when turning on the machine:
1. The machine's power switch is not turned on.
2. The power input voltage is wrong.
3. The power plug is loose.
4. The internal circuit is loose (due to long-distance transportation, bumps), you need to open the cover and check
the internal connection line.

Note:
1) The welding rod specification supported by MIG200 is below 4.0(5/32in), usually 2.5(3/32in) and
3.2(1/8in). European style generally uses E6013, American style generally uses E7018, and stainless
steel generally uses ER308.
2) It supports welding of 1-8mm(1/64-5/64in) carbon steel and 1-5mm(1/64-7/32in) stainless steel.
Aluminum can not be welded. For carbon steel, please use carbon steel electrode. For stainless steel,
please use stainless steel electrode.
3) Connect the ground clamp to clean bare metal. No rust, paint or other coatings, and ensure good
electrical conductivity.
4) The ideal distance between the welding rod and the welding object is 1-2mm(1/64-5/64in), to ensure that
the welding rod and the workpiece are in continuous and stable contact. The welding rod should not
be too high or pressed too low to avoid arc breaking and adhesion.
5) It is normal for novices to have adhesion during the welding process, and you can try to friction arc to
avoid adhesion.
6) Suitable for ordinary welding rods, such as 7018, 6013, etc., but not suitable for special welding rods,
such as 7010, 7011.
Possible problems
1) There is no arc, check the ground wire to connect the workpiece to ensure that there is no rust, paint or
other coatings on the workpiece.
2) There is no arc, check the direct distance between the welding rod and the welding object, the ideal
distance is 1-2 mm; check whether the welding object has rust or oil stains, it is recommended to
polish with sandpaper or a grinder.
3) When welding, the spatter is very big, and it feels very difficult to weld. Please try to change the polarity
connection of the ground wire clamp and the welding clamp with the machine.
4) During the welding process, if the time exceeds 3 minutes, overcurrent protection may occur. You need
to stop working for a few minutes, let the machine cool down for a period of time, and automatically
recover. If the air cools for more than 10 minutes, the machine does not automatically recover, please
shut down and restart.
5) If you have any problems that cannot be solved, please contact us .
