EQUIPMENT INSTALLATION
• Put the machine on the floor (maximum incline of 10°.)
• Ensure the work area has sufficient ventillation for welding, and that there is easy access to the control panel.
• The machine must be placed in a sheltered area away from rain or direct sunlight.
• The machine must not be used in an area with conductive metal dusts.
• The machine protection level is IP21, which means :
- Protection against acess to dangerous parts from solid bodies of a ≥12.5mm diameter and,
- Protection against vertically falling drops.
• The power cables, extensions and welding cables must be fully uncoiled to prevent overheating.
The manufacturer does not incur any responsability regarding damages to both objects and persons that result from an incorrect
and/or dangerous use of the machine .
MAINTENANCE / RECOMMENDATIONS
• Maintenance should only be carried out by a qualified person. Annual maintenance is recommended.
• Ensure the machine is unplugged from the mains, and wait for two minutes before carrying out maintenance work. DANGER
High Voltage and Currents inside the machine.
• Remove the casing 2 or 3 times a year to remove any excess dust. Take this opportunity to have the electrical connections checked by a qualified
person, with an insulated tool.
• Regularly check the condition of the power supply cable. If the power cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its after sales
service or an equally qualified person.
• Ensure the ventilation holes of the device are not blocked to allow adequate air circulation.
• Do not use this equipment to thaw pipes, to charge batteries, or to start any engine.
RISK OF INJURY DUE TO MOVING PARTS!
The wire feeders contain moving parts that may catch hand, hair, clothes or tools which can lead to injuries! Take extra care.
• Do not place your hand on mobile/pivoting/wire feeding parts of the machine!
• Make sure that all panels remain closed when in use !
• Do not wear gloves when feeding the wire through or changing reel.
Minimum and maximum filler metal diameter : Ø 0,6 – Ø 1,0 mm
Maximum gas pressure : 0,5 MPa (5 bars).
INSTALLATION – PRODUCT OPERATION
PRESENTATION
The CARMIG is a traditional machine for welding semi-automatic MIG/MAG (DC current). This machine can weld all
types of wire : Steel, Stainless Steel and Aluminium.
ELECTRICITY SUPPLY
The welders are fitted with a 16 A socket type EN 60309-1 which must be connected to a three-phase 400V (50 - 60
Hz) power supply fitted with four wires and one earthed neutral.
The absorbed effective current (I1eff) is displayed on the machine, for optimal use. Check that the power supply and
its protection (fuse and/or circuit breaker) are compatible with the current needed by the machine. In some countries,
it may be necessary to change the plug to allow the use at maximum settings.
The Carmig has to be plugged on a 400 V (50Hz) power socket WITH earth and protected by a circuit breaker 10A and
a differential 30mA. This device should only be used with a three-phase power supply system with four wires and an
earthed neutral one.
