GAS FLOW CONTROL
In the main screen, a long press on button N°1 allows you to adjust the gas ow on the manometer without unwinding the supply wire. Once started,
the proceedure is illustrated with an animation on the screen. The gas ow setting should be checked periodically to ensure optimal welding.
DEFECTS: CAUSES & SOLUTIONS
SYMPTOMS POSSIBLE CAUSES SOLUTIONS
The ow rate of the welding wire is not
constant.
Clogs blocking the opening.
Clean the contact tube or replace it with non-
stick material.
The wire is slipping on the rollers. Reapply the non-stick product.
One of the rollers is spinning. Check the tightness of the roller screw.
The torch cable is twisted.
The torch cable should be as straight as
possible.
The unwinding mechanism is not working. The spool’s brake or roller is too tight. Loosen the brake and rollers.
Incorrect unwinding of the wire.
Dirty or damaged wire guide. Clean or replace.
Roller pin key is missing. Reposition the pin in its slot.
Spool’s brake is too tight. Release the brake.
No current or wrong welding current.
Incorrect mains outlet connection.
Check the plug connection and verify that the
plug is connected to the power supply.
Poor earth connection.
Check the earthing cable (its connection and
the condition of the clamp).
No power. Check the torch trigger.
The wire jams after passing through the
rollers.
Crushed wire guide sheath.
Check the wire-guide sheath and body of the
torch..
Wire blockage in the torch. Replace or clean.
No capillary tube. Check that the capillary tube is present.
Wire speed too high. Reduce the wire speed.
The weld bead is porous.
The gas ow is insu󰀩cient.
Adjustment range from 15 to 20 L / min.
Clean the base metal.
Gas cylinder empty. Replace it.
Unsatisfactory gas quality. Replace it.
Air circulation or wind inuence. Avoid draughts and protect the welding area.
Gas nozzle is too clogged. Clean or replace the gas nozzle.
Bad wire quality. Use a wire suitable for MIG/MAG welding.
Condition of the welding surface is too poor
(rusted, etc.).
Clean the workpiece before welding.
The gas is not connected.
Check that the gas is connected to the power
source’s inlet.
Excessive sparks.
Arc voltage is too low or too high. See welding settings.
Poor earth connection.
Check and position the earth clamp as close
as possible to the area to be welded.
Insu󰀩cient gas protection. Adjust the gas ow.
No gas coming from the torch. Poor gas connection.
Check the connections of gas inlets.
Check that the solenoid valve is working.
