5.1

Operational controls on the handle, Fig. 3

The button's two-step operating mode is available for the standard welding
torch. Additional operating modes and handle modules depend on the
power source and must be purchased separately.
5.2

Carrying out the welding process

1 Open the shielding gas cylinder.
2 Switch on the power source.
3 Set the welding parameters.
4 Press and hold the trigger on the handle (1) = start welding and activate
fume extraction.
5.3

Regulating the extraction volume, Fig. 3

► Observe the operating instructions for the fume extraction system.
► Push air slide to the front (3) = close, max. extraction volume at the
suction nozzle.

Decommissioning

NOTICE
Material damage due to overheating
Liquid-cooled cable assemblies can leak if overheated.
► Allow the cooling unit to continue running for approx. 5 min. after the welding process.
1 Stop the welding process.
2 Wait until the shielding gas post-flow time has passed and switch off the
power supply.

Maintenance and cleaning

WARNING
Risk of burns from hot surface
Welding torches become very hot during welding. This may result in serious burns.
► Allow welding torches to cool down after welding.
► Wear the correct protective gloves.
CAUTION
Risk of injury due to unexpected start
If power is supplied during maintenance, cleaning or disassembly, parts can start running unexpectedly and lead to injuries.
► Switch off the device.
► Close all supply lines.
► Disconnect the electrical power supply.

Replacing wear parts, Fig. 6

NOTICE
Material damage through the use of unsuitable wear parts and mounting tools
The use of wear parts made by other manufacturers and the improper installation of wear parts can cause material damage to the welding torch and impair
work results.
► Use only original ABICOR BINZEL wear parts.
► Use the ABICOR BINZEL wrench for assembling and disassembling wear parts.
► Ensure that wear parts specific to the welding torch are correctly assigned.
► Ensure that the parts are installed in the correct order.
► Order data and part numbers for the equipment parts and wear parts
can be found in the current order documents.
The torch neck can be fitted with various wear parts depending on the
welding task at hand.
7.2

Selecting and attaching the wire guide

1 Select the welding materials appropriate for the welding task at hand.
2 Attach the wire guide appropriate for the welding materials you are
using.
7.2.1

Shortening and mounting the spiral liner, Fig. 5

1 Lay out the cable assembly straight.
EN - 34
The extraction volume can be regulated during the welding process at the air
regulator.
5 Move the welding torch uniformly over the entire seam length.
6 Release the trigger on the handle (2) = end welding and deactivate fume
extraction.
► Push air regulator to the rear (4) = open, reduced extraction volume at
the suction nozzle.
3 Close the shielding gas cylinder valve.
The gas nozzle and retaining spring are inserted. All other wear parts are
screwed on.
