MACHINE SET UP - MIG / MAG / MOG
Below are shown guidelines to set up the machine for a MIG/MAG and MOG welding.
1) Turn o the welding machine.
2) Connect the plug of the work clamp to the Negative socket “-” (Figure 1.A.5) and the
plug of the cable GAS I NO GAS (Figure 1.A.4) to the Positive socket “+” (Figure 1.A.3) on the
machine.
3) Insert the plug of the MIG torch in the EURO connector (Figure 3) on the front panel
(Figure 1.A.2).
4) Connect the tube of the gas cylinder on the rear panel of the machine, (Figure 1 B
3). The gas used is generally a mixture of Argon and C02 (MIX), otherwise only C02. It is
recommended to use the Argon for the welding of the aluminum.
5) Open the side mantle, place the wire spool on the paddle wheel (if it there isn’t) and insert
the wire in the wire feeder (Fig. 4).
WARNING: The roller has two grooves: changing the roller, you can choose the appropriate
groove according to the diameter of the wire that you want to use. When changing the
diameter of the wire is necessary to change both the roller and the contact tip (end part of
the torch from which one you can see the wire coming out). Unscrew the gas nozzle and the
contact tip to facilitate the passage of the wire.
6) Unroll the torch cable so as to prevent the thread from curling.
7) Stop the roller.
8) Connect the power supply plug to the power outlet and turn on the welding machine.
MIG WITHOUT GAS (MOG)
1) Turn o the welding machine.
2) Connect the plug of the work clamp to the Positive socket “+” (Figure 1.A.3), and the plug
of the cable GAS I NO GAS (Figure 1.A.4) to the Negative socket”-” (Figure 1.A.5).
3) Follow from the step 5 as in the “MIG I MAG” use but, mount the ux cored wire spool and
choose the roller for the ux cored wire.
