Gas errors
Gas errors are caused by too low or too
high pressure on the gas flow or too high back-
pressure from the hose.
Check that the pressure on the gas flow is higher
than 2 bar or 5 l/min. and lower than 6 bar or
27 l/min.
The gas error function can be deactivated by
setting the manual gas flow at 27 l/min.
Cancel gas errors by pressing the

menu").
Fault symbols
The indicator next to the icon blinks when
other types of errors occur. At the same time a
fault symbol is shown in the display.
Selected error codes:
(The error code can be reset by pressing the
MMA-key pad.)
Torch cooling fault
Cooling fault is shown in case of no
circulation of the cooling liquid due to faulty
connection or choking.
Check that the cooling hoses are correctly
connected, top up the water tank and check
welding hose and branches.
Mains supply fault
The icon will be shown, when the
mains voltage is too high. E04-01 will be shown,
when the mains voltage is to low.
Connect the welding machine to 400V AC,
+/-15% 50-60Hz.
OTHER TYPES OF FAULTS
If other fault symbols are shown in the display,
the machine shall be switched off and then on to
dispose of the symbol.
If the fault symbol is shown repeatedly, repair of
the power source is required. Contact your
distributor with information of the fault
