4. Opsætning

4.1 Udpakning og inspektion

Carefully unpack the welding machine and all accessories. Inspect for any damage that may have occurred during transit. If any damage is found, contact your supplier immediately.

4.2 Strømtilslutning

Connect the power input cable (9) to a suitable 220V power supply. Ensure the power source meets the machine's requirements and is properly grounded. This model is equipped with a UK Plug.

4.3 Svejsekablets tilslutninger

Proper connection of welding cables is crucial for safe and effective operation. Refer to the diagrams below for specific connections based on the welding mode.

4.3.1 Stick (MMA) Welding Connection

Figure 5: Stick (MMA) Welding Connection Diagram

• Tilslut jord Clamp to the "-" Output Connector (8).
• Connect the Electrode Holder to the "+" Output Connector (7).
• Fastgør jorden clamp sikkert fastgjort til emnet.
• Sæt svejseelektroden i elektrodeholderen.

4.3.2 Lift TIG Welding Connection

Note: A TIG gun (WP17V torch) needs to be purchased separately for Lift TIG operation.

• Tilslut jord Clamp to the "+" Output Connector (7).
• Connect the TIG Torch to the "-" Output Connector (8).
• Fastgør jorden clamp sikkert fastgjort til emnet.

5. Betjeningsvejledning

5.1 Tænd/sluk

Flip the Power ON/OFF Switch (10) to turn the machine on or off. The Power & Abnormal Indicator (4) will illuminate when the machine is powered on.

5.2 Valg af tilstand

Press the Mode Switching Button (5) to toggle between MMA (Stick) welding mode and Lift TIG welding mode. The corresponding indicator (2 for MMA, 3 for Lift TIG) will light up on the digital display (1).

5.3 Nuværende regulering

Rotate the Current Regulation Knob (6) to adjust the welding current. The current value will be shown on the Current Display (1). Press the knob to set additional functions if available (e.g., Arc Force, Hot Start, Anti-stick, VRD).

5.4 Welding Features

• Hot Start: Provides an initial boost of current to make arc striking easier, especially with difficult-to-start electrodes.
• Arc Force: Prevents the electrode from sticking to the workpiece by increasing the current when the arc length becomes too short.
• Anti-stick: Automatically reduces the current if the electrode sticks to the workpiece, allowing for easy removal without damaging the electrode or workpiece.
• VRD (bindtage Reduktionsenhed): Reducerer det åbne kredsløb voltage to a safe level when the machine is idle, enhancing user safety.
• IGBT-teknologi: Ensures stable arc, high efficiency, and reliable performance.

5.5 Suitable Welding Materials

The HITBOX ARC200 mini3 is suitable for welding a variety of materials:

Figur 8: Eksamples of materials suitable for welding with this machine.

• Blødt stål
• Metalplade
• Firkantet rør
• Støbejern
• Metalbur
• Rustfrit stål

6. Vedligeholdelse

• Rensning: Regularly clean the machine, especially the cooling fan (11) and ventilation openings, to prevent dust and debris buildup. Use the provided cleaning brush or compressed air.
• Kabelinspektion: Periodically check welding cables, electrode holder, and ground clamp for wear, damage, or loose connections. Replace damaged components immediately.
• Opbevaring: Opbevar svejsemaskinen et tørt og rent sted, når den ikke er i brug.
• Professionel service: Ved eventuelle interne reparationer eller komplekse problemer skal du kontakte kvalificeret servicepersonale.

7. Fejlfinding

• Ingen strøm: Check the power input cable (9) connection, the Power ON/OFF Switch (10), and the main power supply.
• "ERR" Indicator (on display): If the "ERR" indicator illuminates, it typically signifies an internal fault or an overload condition. Turn off the machine, disconnect from power, wait a few minutes, and then restart. If the error persists, contact support.
• Poor Arc/Sticking Electrode: Ensure proper current settings for the electrode size and material. Check for clean connections and a good ground clamp contact. The Anti-stick and Arc Force features should help mitigate these issues.
• Overophedning: If the machine stops during operation, it might be due to overheating. Allow the machine to cool down. Ensure the cooling fan (11) is unobstructed and functioning correctly.

9. Brugertips

• Øvelse gør mester: If new to welding, start with scrap materials to get a feel for the machine and different settings.
• Valg af elektrode: Choose the correct electrode type and diameter for your material thickness and desired weld properties.
• Renhed: Always ensure the workpiece is clean and free of rust, paint, or oil for optimal weld quality.
• Jordforbindelse: A strong, clean ground connection is vital for stable arc performance.
• TIG-brænder: Remember that a TIG torch is a separate purchase for Lift TIG welding. Ensure it is compatible with the machine.
