FABRICATOR 211i INSTALLATION/SETUP 3.13 Wire Reel Brake The wire reel hub incorporates a friction brake which is adjusted during manufacture for optimum braking. If it is considered necessary, adjustment can be made by turning the Thumb Screw inside the open end of the hub clockwise to tighten the brake. Correct adjustment will result in the wire reel circumference continuing no further than 10-20mm after release of the trigger. The electrode wire should be slack without becoming dislodged from wire spool. CAUTION Overtension of brake will cause rapid wear of mechanical WIREFEED parts, overheating of electrical componentry and possibly an increased incidence of electrode wire Burnback into contact tip. Art # A-10429 Figure 3-12: Wire Reel Brake Spool Hub Tension Thumb Screw 3.14 Setup for MIG (GMAW) Welding with Gas Shielded MIG Wire A. Select MIG mode with the process selection control. (refer to Section 3.06.13 for further information) B. Connect the MIG polarity lead to the positive welding terminal (+). If in doubt, consult the electrode wire manufacturer. Welding current flows from the Power Source via heavy duty bayonet type terminals. It is essential, however, that the male plug is inserted and turned securely to achieve a sound electrical connection. C. Fit the MIG gun to the power source. (Refer to section 3.07 Attaching MIG gun). D. Connect the work lead to the negative welding terminal (-). If in doubt, consult the electrode wire manufacturer. Welding current flows from the Power Source via heavy duty bayonet type terminals. It is essential, however, that the male plug is inserted and turned securely to achieve a sound electrical connection. E. Fit the welding grade shielding gas regulator/flowmeter to the shielding gas cylinder, then connect the shielding gas hose from the rear of the power source to the regulator/flowmeter outlet. F. Refer to the Weld Guide located on the inside of the wirefeed compartment door for further information. ! WARNING Before connecting the work clamp to the work make sure the mains power supply is switched off. Secure the welding grade shielding gas cylinder in an upright position by chaining it to a suitable stationary support to prevent falling or tipping. INSTALLATION/SETUP 3-14 Manual 0-5225
INSTALLATION/SETUP FABRICATOR 211i CAUTION Loose welding terminal connections can cause overheating and result in the male plug being fused in the terminal. Remove any packaging material prior to use. Do not block the air vents at the front or rear of the Welding Power Source.
