Work procedure
Working with 
or without 
oscillation
Performing a test 
run
The welding carriage can work with and without oscillation. If the oscillation unit is not 
required, it should be removed according to the instructions in the "Preparing the welding 
carriage " section under "Replacing the oscillation unit with an adjustment unit". 
After the control box has been switched on, it automatically checks whether the oscilla-
tion unit is connected and the current status appears on the display.
Perform a test run to check that all system components are working together correctly.
The test run is carried out without an arc and allows you to check all the movements dur-
ing the program sequence.
TEST
Set the welding mode toggle switch to the 0 position.
Move the traversing direction toggle switch forwards.
The welding carriage moves according to the programmed para-
meters, but without welding. 
The welding carriage's current speed is then shown on the display. 
All parameters can be changed during operation.
When the welding carriage reaches the limit switch: 
If the change direction/stop toggle switch is forwards or in the cen-
tral position:
 ► The welding carriage stops when it triggers the limit switch.
If the toggle switch is in the change direction position:
 ► After triggering the limit switch, only the oscillation unit stops 
and the welding carriage starts to move back in the opposite 
direction. In this situation, the travel speed can be increased 
to the maximum for the return journey: press the travel speed 
knob and hold for 2 seconds.
NOTE! If the traversing direction toggle switch is in the central position and the 
welding mode toggle switch is in the "test" position, this position causes the 
arc to light up briey. To activate the welding function, move the welding mode 
toggle switch to the "I" position.
