TIG “AC” welding
1) Start the welding machine by turning the power supply switch
to position I.
2) Push the WELDING PROCESS SELECTION key (T7) to se-
lect the TIG “HF AC” welding processes for TIG welding in
alternating current with high frequency (HF) ignition.
3) ELECTRODE DIAMETER SELECTION
Select the diameter of the electrode to achieve the best control
of ignition in a synergic manner. Selection is done by pushing
the ELECTRODE DIAMETER Key (T4) (ELECTRODE DIAM-
ETER LED flashing) and using the ENCODER Knob (E) to
regulate the value indicated on the DISPLAY (D).

4) SELECTING THE WAVE SHAPE
By pushing the WAVE (T3) button the operator can choose
the best wave shape for their welding needs, from the 4 wave
shapes included:

L22 DYNAMIC TIG
Square wave: highly dynamic arc for all applications.
WARNING:
LED L22 switched on and steady.
The display shows the peak current for pre-setting and
welding.

L23 SPEED TIG
Mixed wave: excellent penetration with high welding speed
and low electrode consumption. Ideal for average / thick thick-
nesses and vertical welds. Increases penetration, thermal con-
trol of the arc, and lifespan of the electrode.
WARNING:
LED L23 switched on and steady.
The display shows the peak current for pre-setting and
welding.

L23 COLD TIG
Triangular wave: low heat generation with reduced distortion,
ideal for minor thicknesses.

Sinusoidal wave: ensures a gentle, soft arc with limited noise,
ideal for average thicknesses and butt welding.
WARNING:

5A) BALANCING of the TIME (t) (-35÷+10)
It allows you to adjust the time (t) the positive or negative elec-
trode stays in place independently, guaranteeing perfect con-
trol of penetration and cleanliness, drastically reducing side
incisions.
