5.2
Connection of welding and return cable
The power source has two outputs; a positive terminal (+) and a negative terminal
(-), for connecting welding and return cables. The output to which the welding cable
is connected depends on the welding method or type of electrode used.
Connect the return cable to the output on the power source. Secure the return cable
contact clamp to the work piece and ensure that there is good contact between the
work piece and the output for the return cable on the power source.
For SMAW welding, the welding cable can be connected to the positive terminal (+)
or negative terminal (-) depending on the type of electrode used. The connecting po
larity is stated on the electrode packaging.
5.3
Turning on/off the mains power source
Turn on the mains power by turning the switch to the "I" position; see 1 on the
picture in chapter 5.1.
Turn off the mains power by turning the switch to the "O" position.
Whether the mains power supply is interrupted or the power source is switched off in
the normal manner, welding data will be stored so that it is available next time the
unit is started.
5.4
Fan control
The power source has a time control that means the fans continue to run for 6.5
minutes after welding has stopped, and the power source switches to energy-saving
mode. The fans start again when welding restarts.
