Electrode Welding - GYS Easymig 130 Manual Del Usuario

SEMI-AUTOMATIC WELDING FOR ALUMINIUM (MIG MODE)
Set the voltage output and the wire speed according to the thickness of the weld piece, following the instructions/
recommendations printed on the side of the machine.
The Easymig 140 and 150 can be equipped to weld with aluminium wire Ø 0,8 or 1,0 (fig II-B / p.74).
The Easy Mig 130 is delivered equipped for welding Aluminium of Ø 0.8mm (Occasional and non-intensive).
In this case the wire used should be stiff to facilitate wire feeding.
For use with aluminium, the gas requirement is pure argon (Ar). For the specific gas requirements please contact
your distributor. The gas flow in Aluminium is between 20 and 30 Litres/minute depending on the environment,
and the experience of the welder.
Below are the differences between welding with Steel and Aluminium :
- Specific rollers are needed for welding with Aluminium.
- Adjust the pressure of the drive rolls to prevent the wire being crushed.
- Only use a capilliary tube for welding with Steel or Stainless Steel.
- Use a special Aluminium Torch with a teflon sheath to reduce friction.
DO NOT cut the sheath close to the joint, it is used to guide the wire from the the rollers.
- Contact Tube : Use a special aluminium contact tube specific to the diameter of wire being used.
GASLESS WIRE WELDING
Set the voltage output and the wire speed according to the thickness of the weld piece, following the instructions/
recommendations printed on the side of the machine.
The Easymig can weld gasless wire up to 0.9mm, if the polarity is reversed (fig III / p.75) respecting a maximum
pressure of 5Nm. For parameters of use, please refer to the instructions indicated on page 74. Welding gasless
wire with a standard nozzle can lead to overheating and deterioration of the torch. It is recommended to use a
"No Gas" nozzle (ref. 041868), or remove the genuine nozzle (Fig. III / p.75).

ELECTRODE WELDING

• The reverse polarity cable must be disconnected in MMA (stick welding) mode in order to connect the electrode
holder and earth clamp. Connect the electrode holder and earth clamp as indicated on the electrode packaging.
• Respect the basic rules of welding.
• This device has 1 feature specific to Inverter machines :
- Anti-Sticking: Enables easy removal of the electrode from the metal. The anti-sticking feature, after its start,
requires approximately a 3 seconds delay before resuming normal welding operations.
SETTINGS PANEL (FIG V / P.75)
• Green light «ON»: when the machine is switched on the light
turns on.
1
• In case of power failure, the green light goes off but the device
remains powered while the power cable is unplugged.
• Orange light :
• Over-temperature: in such a case you shall wait a few minutes,
2
the light will turn off and the machine will start again.
• Over-current on primary circuit: in such a case you shall switch
off the machine (with the main switch) and switch on.
• Left button:
- MIG / MAG Welding : Adjust the wire feeder speed up to
maximum speed.
3
- MMA welding : Adjust the welding current.
