symbol (-) (Fig. B-8).
5.4 LOADING THE WIRE SPOOL (Fig. G, G1, G )
ATTENTION! BEFORE LOADING THE WIRE, MAKE SURE THE WELDING
MACHINE IS OFF AND DISCONNECTED FROM THE MAINS.
MAKE SURE THE WIRE FEEDERS, THE WIRE GUIDE HOSE AND THE TORCH CONTACT PIPE
CORRESPOND WITH THE DIAMETER AND NATURE OF THE WIRE TO BE USED AND THAT THEY
ARE CORRECTLY MOUNTED. DO NOT WEAR PROTECTIVE GLOVES WHEN THREADING THE
WIRE.
- Open the reel area door.
- Unscrew the spool lock nut.
- Position the wire spool on the reel; make sure the reel pulling pin is correctly housed in its
hole (1a).
- Tighten the spool lock nut, using spacers as and where necessary (1a).
- Free the pressure counter-roller/s and distance it/them from the lower roller/s ( a);
- Make sure the pulling feeder/s is/are suitable for the wire being used ( b).
- Free the wire end, cut off the misshaped end by cutting it cleanly and without leaving
a burr; rotate the spool counter-clockwise and position the wire end into the wire feed
input, pushing it by 50-100 mm into the torch connecting wire feed ( c).
- Reposition the counter-roller/s, adjusting the pressure at an intermediate value, make
sure the wire is positioned correctly in the hollow of the lower feeder/s (3).
- Remove the nozzle and contact tube (4a).
- Insert the welding machine plug into the mains socket, switch on the welding machine,
press the torch push-button or the wire forward push-button (Fig. C-2) and wait for the
end of the wire which is running along the whole wire feed casing, to exit by 10-15 cm
from the front of the torch, then release the push-button.
ATTENTION! During these operations the wire is being powered and is
subject to mechanical force; if suitable precautions are not taken there is a
danger of electric shock and wounds, and electric arcs striking:
- Do not direct the torch mouth against parts of the body.
- Do not approach the torch gas cylinder.
- Remount the contact tube and the nozzle onto the torch (4b).
- Make sure the wire exits regularly; set the roller pressure and reel braking (1b) to the
lowest values possible, making sure the wire does not slide in the hollow and that when
the drive stops the wire turns do not become loose because of too much spool inertia.
- Cut the end of the wire that exits from the nozzle by 10-15 mm.
- Close the reel area door.
5.5 REPLACING THE TORCH WIRE GUIDE SHEATH (FIG. H)
Before replacing the sheath, straighten out the torch cable to make sure there are no loops.
5.5.1 Spiral sheath for steel wire
1- Remove the nozzle and contact tube from the torch head.
2- Unscrew the sheath lock nut on the central connector and slide out the existing sheath.
3- Slide the new sheath into the torch cable and gently push it until it comes out of the
torch head.
4- Hand tighten the sheath lock nut back in place.
5- Cut the wire flush with the sheath and gently squeeze them together; remove it from
the torch cable.
6- Bevel the sheath cutting zone and reposition it in the torch-cable duct.
7- Use a key to tighten the lock nut back in place.
8- Remount the contact tube and the nozzle.
5.5. Synthetic sheath for aluminium wire
Perform operations 1, 2 and 3 foreseen for steel sheaths (do not consider operations 4, 5,
6, 7 and 8).
9- Screw the aluminium contact tube back in place checking that it comes into contact
with the sheath.
10- Insert the brass nipple, the OR ring onto the opposite end of the sheath (torch coupling
side), maintain a light pressure on the sheath and tighten the sheath lock nut. The
excess section of the sheath shall be removed later on (see (13)). Slide out the capillary
tube for steel sheaths from the wire feeder torch coupling.
11- NO CAPILLARY TUBE IS FORESEEN for aluminium sheaths with diameters of 1.6-2.4 mm
(yellow colour); the sheath will be inserted in the torch coupling without it.
Cut the capillary tube for aluminium sheaths measuring 1-1.2 mm (red colour) to a
length of 2 mm less than the one used for the steel tube and insert it on the free end of
the sheath.
12- Insert and block the torch in the wire feeder coupling, mark the sheath at 1-2 mm from
the rollers, now extract the torch again.
13- Cut the sheath to the foreseen measurement without deforming the inlet hole.
Remount the torch in the wire feeder coupling and mount the gas nozzle.
5.6 LOADING OF THE WIRE COIL ON SPOOL GUN (single torch version only) (Fig. I)
ATTENTION! BEFORE LOADING THE WIRE, MAKE SURE THE WELDING
MACHINE IS OFF AND DISCONNECTED FROM THE MAINS. OR THAT THE
SPOOL GUN IS DISCONNECTED FROM THE WELDING MACHINE.
MAKE SURE THE WIRE FEEDERS, THE WIRE GUIDE HOSE AND THE SPOOL GUN CONTACT PIPE
CORRESPOND WITH THE DIAMETER AND NATURE OF THE WIRE TO BE USED AND THAT THEY
ARE CORRECTLY MOUNTED. DO NOT WEAR PROTECTIVE GLOVES WHEN THREADING THE
WIRE.
- Remove the cover by unscrewing the relative screw (1).
- Position the wire coil onto the reel.
- Release the pressure counter-roller and distance it from the lower roller (2).
- Free the wire end, cut off the misshaped end by cutting it cleanly and without leaving a
burr; rotate the reel counter-clockwise and position the wire end into the wire feed input,
pushing it by 50-100 mm into the torch swan neck (2).
- Reposition the counter-roller, adjusting the pressure at an intermediate value, make sure
the wire is positioned correctly in the hollow of the lower roller (3).
- Gently stop the reel, using the relative adjustment screw.
- With the SPOOL GUN connected, insert the welding machine plug into the mains socket,
switch on the welding machine, press the spool gun push-button and wait for the end of
the wire which is running along the whole wire feed casing, to exit by 100-150 mm from
the front of the torch, then release the torch push-button.
6. MIG-MAG WELDING PROCESS DESCRIPTION
6.1 SHORT ARC
The wire melts and the weld bead detaches because the wire tip in the weld pool short-
circuits (up to 200 times per second). The free length of the wire (stick-out) is normally
between 5 and 12 mm.
Carbon, low-alloy steel
- Usable wire diameter:
- Usable gas:
Stainless steel
- Usable wire diameter:
- Usable gas:
Aluminium and CuSi/CuAl
- Usable wire diameter:

6. TRANSFERRING TO AB PULSE OR PULSE MODE (PULSE ARC)
This is a "controlled" transfer located in the "spray-arc" (modified spray-arc) function zone
and therefore has the advantages of fast welding and no seams with remarkably low current
values, which can satisfy the requirements of many typical "short-arc" applications.
Each current pulse corresponds to the detachment of a single drop of the electrode wire; this
takes place at a frequency which is proportionate to the wire feeder speed, with variations
related to the type and diameter of the wire itself (typical frequency values: 20-300Hz).
Aluminium:
- Usable wire diameter: 0.8-1.0 mm (1.2 mm version 270A, 400A and 3 torches only)
- Usable gas:
CuSi/CuAl:
- Usable wire diameter:
- Usable gas:
Stainless steel (version 70A, 400A and 3 torches only):
- Usable wire diameter:
- Usable gas:
Carbon, low-alloy steel
- Usable wire diameter:
- Usable gas:
Typically the contact tube must be inside the nozzle by 5-10 mm, the further it is in, the
higher the arc voltage will be; the stick-out of the wire will normally measure from 10 to
12 mm.
Application: welding in "position" on medium-small thicknesses and on thermally
susceptible materials, particularly suitable for light alloys (aluminium or al alloys) even
on thicknesses under 3mm.
PROTECTION GAS
See TAB. 8.
6.3 TRANSFERRING TO ROOT MIG MODE
ROOT MIG is a particular type of Short Arc MIG welding designed to maintain the welding
bath even colder than the Short Arc itself. Thanks to the very low level of heat, it is possible
to deposit welding material with minimal deformation of the surface of the piece being
processed. ROOT MIG is therefore ideal for manual filling of gaps and cracks. Furthermore,
compared to the TIG welding mode, the filling operation does not require filling material
and is easier and quicker to perform. The ROOT MIG programs are specific for working
carbon steel and low-alloy steels.
7. MIG-MAG OPERATION MODE
7.1 Operating in manual mode
Manual mode settings (Fig. L-1)
The user can customise the following welding parameters (Fig. L-2):
- : Welding voltage;
- : Wire feed speed;
- : Pre-gas. Allows adaptation of the protective gas outflow before starting
welding.
- : Post-gas. Use to adapt the protective gas outflow starting from when welding is
stopped.
- : Burn-back. Use to adjust the wire burn-back time when welding is stopped;
- : Soft-start. Use to adjust wire feed rate as welding starts, in order to optimise arc
strike.
- : Electronic reactance. A higher value determines a hotter welding bath;
The actual welding settings (wire speed, welding current and voltage) are shown in the top
section of the display.
7.1.1 Parameters setting with spool gun (single torch version only)
In manual mode, the wire feeding speed and the welding voltage are adjusted separately.
The spool gun knob (Fig. L-5) adjusts the wire speed, whilst the welding voltage is adjusted
via the display.
