6. Starting up
Connecting to the mains power supply
Before you connect the power cable (7) to the mains
power supply, make sure that the data on the rating
plate is the same as that for your mains supply.
Important! The mains plug may only be replaced by
a qualified electrician.
Connecting the welding cable (Fig. 5)
Important! Always make sure the device is
unplugged before carrying out any connection work
on the welding cable (8/9)! Connect the welding
cable as shown in Fig. 5. To do so, connect the two
connectors (12) on the electrode holder (8) and the
ground terminal (9) to the corresponding quick-lock
couplings (5/6) and lock the connectors (12) in place
by turning them in a clockwise direction.
The cable with the electrode holder (8) is normally
connected to the positive pole (5) and the cable with
the ground terminal (9) to the negative pole (6).
Switching ON/OFF (Fig. 2)
To switch on the device, turn the potentiometer (1) in
a clockwise direction from the zero position on the
welding current scale (2). The indicator lamp for
operation (3) then comes on. To switch off the
device, turn the potentiometer (1) in a counter-
clockwise direction back to the zero position on the
welding current scale (2). The indicator lamp for
operation (3) then goes out.

7. Welding preparations

Connect the earth terminal (9) direct to the part to be
welded or to the support on which the part is resting.
Ensure that the earth terminal is in direct contact with
the part to be welded. You should therefore avoid
coated surfaces and/or insulated materials. The
electrode holder cable has a special clamp at one
end, which is used to secure the electrode. The
welding safety shield must be used at all times for
welding. It protects your eyes from the radiation
emitted by the arc and nevertheless enables you to
watch the welding process.
8. Welding
Connect all the electrical connections for the power
supply and for the welding current circuit. Most
coated electrodes are connected to the positive pole.
However, some types of electrode have to be
