Loosen starknob screws and open gear brackets. The feed rollers are factory installed for use with 1.2/1.6 mm Ø wire
(for 0.6/0.8 mm Ø wire the feed rollers must be reversed on the shaft). Insert deburred wire into spiral guide tube,
place over first feed roller into guide tube of bracket, then across second feed roller into the Euro-connector. Close
gear brackets and tighten starknob screws, setting just slightly more pressure to the feed roller feeding into the Euro-
connector, to ensure a smooth wire feed. Failure to observe will not give a smooth wire feed.
Remove gas shroud by turning clockwise, and contact tip by turning counter-clockwise. Set mains switch (6) to ON
and activate the touch control switch (12) to run the wire through the torch lead until it protrudes approximately 2 cms
from the swan neck. Reinstall contact tip and gas shroud.
Please note that the welding machine is factory set for use with 1.2 mm Ø wire. If a different wire diameter is used the
steel liner and contact tip have to be changed to match the wire diameter.

Power Supply
This welding power source is suitable for operation on the supply voltage shown on the name plate. A power supply
cable is fitted to the machine, the phase-sequence does not matter and has no influence on the direction of rotation of
the cooling fan and, if present, a coolant plump.
Caution: on water-cooled units the refrigerating unit must be filled with coolant (mixture of water and antifreeze) prior
to commissioning.
3.4
Earth Cable
Connect earth cable plug to Earth Cable Socket (6) on the machine's front panel. Use only genuine Elektra parts with
recommended cross sections. Structural components, beams, pipes or rails should not be used for earth conduction,
if they are not the actual workpiece. When using welding tables or jigs ensure proper conducting.
3.5
Shielding Gas Supply
Ensure the gas cylinder's valve cap is always securely in place before transportation. Risk of personal injury if the gas
cylinder valve is damaged!
Place gas cylinder onto the cylinder rack and secure with chain. Open valve briefly to clear any foreign matter from it
before installing the pressure regulator.
3.5.1 Gas Flow Setting
The correct amount of shielding gas, and a steady gas flow at the welding seam, are essential to provide sufficient
shielding of the weld pool. Insufficient shielding causes porous welding seams.
Caution: Risk of personal injury by the pressurized gas.
