Welding SMAW (MMA) Process
PRESTOMIG 185MP and PRESTOMIG 210MP does not
include the electrode holder with lead necessary for
SMAW welding, but the one can be purchased separately.
Procedure of begin welding of SMAW process:

First turn the machine off.

Determine the electrode polarity for the electrode to
be used. Consult the electrode data for this
information.

Depending on the polarity of using electrode,
connect the work lead [19] and the electrode holder
with lead to output socket [8] or [9] and lock them.
See the Table 3.


Connect the work lead to the welding piece with the
work clamp.

Install the proper electrode in the electrode holder.

Turn the welding machine on.

Set the welding parameters.

The welding machine is now ready to weld.

By applying the principle of occupational health and
safety at welding, welding can be begun.

Welding GTAW Process (PRESTOMIG
210MP only )
PRESTOMIG 210MP can be used to GTAW process
with DC (-). Arc ignition can be achieved only by lift TIG
method (contact ignition and lift ignition).
PRESTOMIG 210MP does not include the torch to
GTAW welding, but the one can be purchased
separately. See "Accessories" chapter.
Procedure of begin welding of GTAW process:

First turn the machine off.

Connect GTAW torch to [9] output socket.

Connect the work lead to [8] output socket.

Connect the work lead to the welding piece with the
work clamp.

Install the proper tungsten electrode in the GTAW
torch.

Turn the machine on.

Set the welding parameters.

The welding machine is now ready to weld.

By applying the principle of occupational health and
safety at welding, welding can be begun.
During welding GTAW process, the user can set

Memory – Save, Recall, Delete
(PRESTOMIG 210MP only )
PRESTOMIG 210MP enables saving, recalling and
deleting the parameter's settings. 9 memories can be used
by user.
Saving, recalling and deleting process settings is accessible
in advanced menu of PRESTOMIG 210MP.
Error's Message (PRESTOMIG 210MP
only )
Contact with the Technical Service Center or Lincoln
Electric, when a machine's display of PRESTOMIG 210MP
will show a message of the Figure 7 or similar.
