4. Konfigurazioa

1. Despaketatzea: Kontu handiz atera osagai guztiak paketetik. Begiratu bidalketa-kalterik dagoen.
2. Potentzia-konexioa: Connect the welder to a 230V, 50Hz power supply with a 16A circuit breaker. Ensure the power switch on the welder is in the "OFF" position before plugging it in.
3. Kableen instalazioa:
   • Ireki kable-konpartimentua.
   • Mount the flux-cored wire spool (up to 0.9 mm diameter) onto the spindle.
   • Feed the wire through the guide tube and into the drive rollers.
   • Adjust the drive roller tension to prevent slipping or crushing the wire.
   • Itxi konpartimendua.
4. Zuzi eta lurzoruko Clamp Konexioa:
   • Ensure the welding torch is securely connected to the front panel of the welder.
   • Erantsi lurra clamp cable to the designated terminal on the welder.
5. Pieza prestatzea: Clean the workpiece thoroughly to remove rust, paint, oil, or other contaminants that could affect weld quality.

5. Funtzionamendua

1. Piztu: Switch the welder to the "ON" position.
2. Lurrerako Cl-a erantsiamp: Securely attach the ground clamp lan-piezari, kontaktu elektriko ona bermatuz.
3. Aukeratu potentzia maila: The SG 120 A offers two power levels: 60A and 90A. Select the appropriate level based on the material thickness.
   • For thinner materials (e.g., 1.5 mm), use the lower setting (60A).
   • For thicker materials (up to 5 mm), use the higher setting (90A).
4. Adjust Wire Feed Speed: Use the control knob to adjust the wire feed speed. Start with a moderate setting and adjust as needed to achieve a stable arc and good weld penetration.
5. Soldadura:
   • Position the welding torch approximately 10-15 mm from the workpiece.
   • Press the trigger on the torch to initiate the arc and wire feed.
   • Maintain a consistent travel speed and torch angle to create a uniform weld bead.
   • Flux-cored welding produces slag, which will need to be removed after welding.
6. Gainberotzearen babesa: If the welder overheats, the thermal protection will activate, and the unit will temporarily shut down. Allow it to cool down before resuming operation.
7. Itzali: After welding, release the torch trigger, switch the welder to "OFF," and disconnect it from the power supply.

6. Mantentzea

Mantentze-lan erregularrak zure soldadorearen iraupena eta funtzionamendu segurua bermatzen ditu.

• Garbiketa: Regularly clean the welding unit, especially the ventilation openings, to prevent dust and debris buildup. Use compressed air if available.
• Torch Maintenance:
  • Inspect the contact tip for wear and replace if necessary.
  • Ensure the nozzle is clean and free of spatter.
  • Check the torch cable for damage.
• Wire Drive System: Periodically check the wire drive rollers for wear and ensure they are clean.
• Beheko Clamp: Ziurtatu lurra clamp is clean and provides a secure connection.
• Biltegiratzea: Gorde soldagailua erabiltzen ez duzunean leku lehor eta garbi batean.
