Using a single-sided gun
♦
Connect the copper plate onto the generator's earth cable.
♦
Firmly fix the earth plate as near as possible to the welding area.
In case of spot welding with the single sided gun, always fix the earth plate to the sheet that will not come into contact with
the welding electrode (so that the welding current will flow through the 2 sheets to be welded).
♦
Select the GUN tool using the
key, or by pressing the gun trigger.
♦
The standard mode with 'star welding' is launched by default.
♦
The gun can be used in both standard and manual modes.
-
Never leave the inertia hammer on the gun when it is hung from the balancer as
this may damage the welding cables.
♦
In standard mode, the gun can weld a maximum of 1.5mm thick
sheets.
When using the gun, the operator can choose between several tools
(single spot, carbon shrinking, star welding, studs, rivets, washers,
stitches).
The tool selection is made with + and – keys.
♦
In manual mode, the maximum permitted welding current is 9 kA
during a period that will not exceed 600 ms, it is therefore impossible to
select higher values for these parameters.
Set the generator by selecting the thickness of the sheet metal with the
key + and -. It is possible to modify the parameters time and current in
manual mode.
Press
for 2 seconds to revert back to standard mode.
When highlighted, a parameter can be adjusted using the + and – keys. The
and
keys allow movement from one
parameter to the next.
ATTENTION :
The clamps and gun are connected to the same power supply, therefore when one is in use, current will be
delivered to all tools. For safety, ensure sure that the clamps and gun are always placed on the trolley when
not in use (clamp stand on either side of the trolley, and the gun stand on the arm). Failure to follow this
precaution may result in serious damage to the user, the generator and its tools, and there is a high risk of
sparks and metal spatter.
