POWER SUPPLY
The MULTIWELD 160M is supplied with a 16A plug type CEE7/7 and must be connected to a 230V single phase power supply (50-
60 Hz) with three earthed wires.
The absorbed effective current (I1eff) is displayed on the machine, for optimal use. Check that the power supply and its protection
(fuse and/or circuit breaker) are compatible with the current needed by the machine. In some countries, it may be necessary to
change the plug to allow the use at maximum settings.
While under intensive use (superior to the duty cycle) the thermal protection can activate, in that case, the arc switches off and the
thermal protection indicator switches on.
CONNECTION ON A GENERATOR
The machine can work with generators as long as the auxiliary power matches these requirements :
- The voltage must be AC, always set as specified, and the peak voltage below 400V,
- The frequency must be between 50 and 60 Hz.
It is imperative to check these requirements as several generators generate high voltage peaks that can damage these machines.
USE WITH EXTENSION CABLES
All extension cables must have an adequate size and section, relative to the machine’s voltage.
Use an extension that complies with national safety regulations.

SWITCHING ON
The ON/OFF switch is located at the back of the machine. Press the switch on the «I» position to start the generator. This switch
must not be turned off (to «O») while welding. When the machine is powered, the ON LED lights up (FIG VI - 4).
