5.1 Powering On and Current Adjustment
- Tænd for afbryderen på bagsiden af enheden.
- Use the current adjustment knob on the front panel to set the desired amperage. The digital display will show the current setting.
- Refer to welding rod manufacturer specifications for recommended amperage ranges for different rod types and material thicknesses.
5.2 Svejseteknik
- Buestart: Initiate the arc by striking the electrode against the workpiece. The digital chip control facilitates immediate arcing.
- Maintaining Arc: Maintain a consistent and tight arc distance for stable and smooth welding. Inverter welders often require a tighter arc compared to traditional AC welders.
- Elektrodetyper: This welder is compatible with various electrode types, including 6013 and 7018 rods, which are commonly used for general-purpose and low-alloy steel welding, respectively.

7. Fejlfinding
| Problem | Mulig årsag | Løsning |
|---|---|---|
| Svejser tænder ikke. | No power from outlet; power switch off; internal fuse blown. | Check power outlet and circuit breaker; ensure power switch is ON; contact support if fuse is suspected. |
| Overophedningsbeskyttelsen aktiveres ofte. | Continuous high-load operation; insufficient ventilation; blocked cooling fan. | Allow welder to cool down; ensure adequate airflow around the unit; clean cooling fan and vents. |
| Circuit breaker trips during operation. | Insufficient circuit breaker amperage (especially on 110V); welder drawing too much current. | Ensure a dedicated 30 Amp breaker is used for 110V operation; reduce amperage setting if possible; consult an electrician for circuit upgrades. |
| Arc is unstable or difficult to start/maintain. | Improper arc length; poor electrode contact; worn electrode clamp; incorrect ampaldersindstilling. | Maintain a tight arc distance; ensure good contact between electrode and holder; consider upgrading electrode clamp; juster ampslette. |
| Poor weld quality (excessive spatter, weak penetration). | Ukorrekt amperage; improper welding technique; unsuitable electrode type. | Tilpasse amperage according to material and rod; refine welding technique; use appropriate electrodes. |
