2. Sikkerhedsinstruktioner

Svejsearbejde indebærer betydelige risici. Overhold altid følgende sikkerhedsforanstaltninger for at forhindre personskade eller beskadigelse.

• Elektrisk stød: Welding current can cause fatal electric shock. Ensure proper grounding. Do not touch live electrical parts. Wear dry, insulated gloves and protective clothing.
• Røg og gasser: Welding fumes and gases can be hazardous to your health. Work in a well-ventilated area. Use an exhaust system to remove fumes.
• Bue stråler: Arc rays can burn eyes and skin. Wear a welding helmet with appropriate filter lenses and protective clothing. Protect bystanders with welding screens.
• Brand og eksplosion: Svejsegnister og varmt metal kan forårsage brand eller eksplosioner. Hold brandfarlige materialer væk fra svejseområdet. Hav en brandslukker let tilgængelig.
• Forbrændinger: Varmt metal og slagge kan forårsage alvorlige forbrændinger. Brug beskyttelseshandsker og -tøj.
• Støj: Overdreven støj kan skade hørelsen. Brug høreværn.
• Pacemakere: Electromagnetic fields from welding can interfere with pacemakers. Consult your doctor before operating welding equipment.
• Opretholdelse: Afbryd strømmen, før du udfører vedligeholdelse eller service.

ADVARSEL: This equipment generates high frequency (HF) energy. Improper use or maintenance can cause interference with other electronic devices. Ensure all connections are secure and the machine is properly grounded.

4. Opsætning

Follow these steps to set up your Stayer PRO MAX 185 HF welding machine for operation.

1. Placering: Placer svejsemaskinen på en stabil, plan overflade i et godt ventileret område, væk fra brandfarlige materialer.
2. Strømtilslutning: Connect the power cable to a suitable power outlet. Ensure the power supply matches the machine's requirements (230V). The machine is designed for safe use with stabilized generators.
3. Jord Clamp Forbindelse: Tilslut jorden clamp cable to the appropriate terminal on the welding machine (usually marked with a negative (-) symbol for MMA or TIG DC). Securely attach the ground clamp til emnet eller svejsebordet, og sørg for god elektrisk kontakt.
4. Elektrodeholdertilslutning: For MMA welding, connect the electrode holder cable to the positive (+) terminal on the welding machine. For TIG welding, connect the TIG torch (not included, but compatible) to the negative (-) terminal and the ground clamp to the positive (+) terminal for DC TIG.
5. Gastilslutning (til TIG): If performing TIG welding, connect the inert gas cylinder (e.g., Argon) to the TIG torch and the machine's gas inlet (if applicable for external gas control). Ensure the gas regulator is properly installed and adjusted.
6. Electrode/Tungsten Installation:
   • MMA: Insert the desired coated electrode into the electrode holder.
   • TIG: Install a sharpened tungsten electrode into the TIG torch collet.
7. Tænd: Tænd for hovedafbryderen på svejsemaskinen. Det digitale display lyser.

5. Betjeningsvejledning

The Stayer PRO MAX 185 HF offers multiple welding modes for versatility.

Figur 5.1: The Stayer PRO MAX 185 HF in use, demonstrating its capability for various welding tasks. Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) when welding.

5.1. Valg af tilstand

Use the control panel buttons to select the desired welding mode:

• MMA (Manual Metal Arc / Stick Welding): Til svejsning med belagte elektroder.
• MMA Pulsed: For MMA welding with a pulsed current, suitable for thinner materials (starting from 40 Amperes).
• MMA Synergic: Automatically adjusts welding parameters based on electrode type and diameter.
• TIG (wolfram-inertgas): For precise welding with a non-consumable tungsten electrode and inert gas.
• TIG Pulsed: For TIG welding with a pulsed current, ideal for thin sheets (starting from 15 Amperes).

All modes can be operated with High Frequency (HF) ignition, eliminating the need to scratch the electrode to start the arc.

5.2. Amperage justering

Juster svejsestrømmen (amperage) using the control knob on the machine's front panel or directly on the electrode holder for fine-tuning. The digital display shows the selected ampslette.

5.3. 2T / 4T Modes (for TIG and HF-enabled MMA)

• 2T (To-berøringsfunktion): Press and hold the torch trigger to start the arc and weld. Release the trigger to stop.
• 4T (fire-berøringsfunktion): Press and release the trigger to start the arc. Press and release again to stop. This mode is useful for longer welds as it reduces hand fatigue.

5.4. Welding with Coated Electrodes (MMA)

The PRO MAX 185 HF is optimized for various electrode types, including rutile, basic, cellulosic, stainless steel, cast iron, and high-performance electrodes.

1. Vælg MMA-tilstand.
2. Tilpasse amperage according to electrode diameter and material thickness.
3. Use the HF start feature to initiate the arc without scratching.
4. Oprethold en ensartet buelængde og bevægelseshastighed.

5.5. TIG-svejsning

For TIG welding, ensure you have a compatible TIG torch and inert gas supply.

1. Vælg TIG-tilstand.
2. Adjust gas flow rate and ampslette.
3. Use the HF start to initiate the arc without contaminating the tungsten.
4. Maintain proper torch angle and tungsten-to-workpiece distance.

6. Vedligeholdelse

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your welding machine. Always disconnect the machine from the power supply before performing any maintenance.

• Rensning: Periodically clean the exterior of the machine with a dry, soft cloth. Use compressed air to blow out dust and debris from the ventilation openings. Do not use solvents.
• Kabelinspektion: Regularly inspect all cables (power, electrode, ground) for cuts, cracks, or damaged insulation. Replace damaged cables immediately.
• Forbindelser: Sørg for, at alle elektriske forbindelser er tætte og fri for korrosion.
• Ventilator: Ensure the cooling fan is free from obstructions and operating correctly. The intelligent fan system adjusts speed based on temperature.
• Opbevaring: Opbevar maskinen et tørt og rent sted, når den ikke er i brug.
