ELECTRODE WELDING (FIG. III) SMARTMIG 3P
Connect the electrode holder and earth clamp as indicated on the electrode packaging.
• Respect the basic rules of welding.
Compatible electrodes :
Electrode Ø mm (Rutile) Metal sheet thickness (mm) Welding current (A)
1.6 1.5 40
2.0 1.5 > 3 55
2.5 2.5 > 6 80
3.2 5 > 8 115
PROCESS OF REELS AND TORCHES ASSEMBLY (FIG-V)
Remove the Nozzle (g V-E) from the torch by turning clockwise and then remove the contact tip, leaving the support
and the spring on the torch (g V-D).
• Open the door of the machine
FIG V-A : Position the reel on to the support.
• In case of 100mm (3P, 142, 152, 162) wire reel use, do not install the adapter (1).
• Adjust the reel break (2) to avoid reel movement tangling the wire when welding stops. Be careful not to tighten
too much - the reel must rotate without straining the motor.
• Tighten the plastic screw (3).
FIG V-B : Installing the drive roller.
• Choose the correct diameter reel for the type of wire. The visible diameter indicated on the roller when tted in
place is the diameter currently in use (ie. 0.8mm is visible for use with 0.8mm wire).
FIG V-C : To select the adjustment of the drive rollers, proceed as follows :
• Loosen the drive roller knob as far as possible.
• Insert the wire until it exits the other side by about 2cm, tighten the knob again slightly.
• Start the motor by pressing the trigger of the torch.
• Tighten the knob (g V-C) whilst pressing the trigger until the wire starts to move.
Nb : When welding with Aluminium, use the minimum possible pressure to avoid crushing the wire
• Pull the wire out of the end of the torch by approximately 5cm, then attach the contact tip suitable for the wire used
and then the nozzle (g V-E).
The SMARTMIG 142, 152, 162, 3P machines can accommodate coils of 100 or 200mm diameter.
The SMARTMIG 182 machines can accommodate coils of 200 or 300mm diameter. To place a 200mm wire reel, rst
install the adapter (ref. 042889) on the support.
The SMARTMIG 3P can also weld with rutile electrodes of 2.0/ 2.5/ 3.2 mm diameter.
Below are the different combinations possible :
Smartmig 142/152 162 3P 182 183 gaz
steel/stainless
steel
0,6/0,8 0,6/0,8/1,0 Argon +
CO2
Alu* - 0,8/1,0 Pure Argon
No Gas 0,9 0,9/1,2 -
Electrodes - - 2/2,5/3,2 - - -
* We recommend a teon sheath (ref. 041578) and special Aluminium contact tip (Ø 0.8 ref. 041059 - Ø 1.0 ref.
041066)
To help you select the diameter of wire suitable for the job you want to perform, refer to the table on page 4 (FIG IV).
GAS COUPLING
- Connect a pressure regulator to the gas bottle. Connect the welding machine using the pipes supplied, and place
the two clamps to avoid leakages.
- Set the gas ow by adjusting the dial located on the pressure regulator.
NB : to help facilitate the adjustment of the gas ow, operate the drive rollers by pressing the trigger of the torch
(ensure that the drive roller is completely loose so the wire is not fed through).
This procedure does not apply to «Gasless» welding mode.
