blends of ARGON with a maximum of 2% HYDROGEN for
welding stainless steel, and HELIUM or ARGON-HELIUM
blends for welding copper. These blends increase the heat
of the arc while welding, but are much more expensive.
If you are using HELIUM gas, increase the liters per minute
to 10 times the diameter of the electrode (Ex. diameter 1.6
x10= 16 lt./min of Helium).
Use D.I.N. 10 protective glasses for up to 75A, and D.I.N. 11
from 75A up.

SAVING
You may save parameters only after welding.
Pressing the push-button Q briefly makes a selection;
held down for more than 3 seconds, it saves the data.
Each time it is turned on, the machine always shows the
last welding condition used.
3.6.1.
Saving data from the PL program
Using the machine for the first time
When the machine is turned on, the display shows the sym-
bol PL; this disappears after 5 seconds, and a working cur-
rent is displayed. Follow the instructions in paragraphs 3.2
and 3.5, then proceed as follows to save the data in the pro-
gram P01:
· Briefly press the push-button Q (mem+mem-) the message
P01 will appear flashing.
· Press push-button Q for more than 3 seconds, until the sym-
bol P01 stops flashing: at this point, the data have been
saved.
· Obviously, if you wish to save in a program other than P01,
you should briefly press the push-button Q as many times as
necessary to display the desired program. P01 will be dis-
played the next time the machine is turned on.
PRESSING THE Q PUSH-BUTTON BRIEFLY MAKES A
SELECTION, WHILE HOLDING IT DOWN FOR MORE
THAN 3 SECONDS SAVES THE DATA.
3.6.2.
Save from a free program
The operator may edit and save a selected program by pro-
ceeding as follows:
· Press the push-button Q briefly and select the desired pro-
gram number.
· The symbol of free programs is flashing.
· Press the button AL and choose the welding procedure,
press the torch trigger A to select the mode (paragraph 3.1).·
Turn the knob O and set the welding current.
· If the TIG procedure has been selected, activate the LED V
(post gas) by means of the push-button R, and set the
desired value via the knob O (paragraph 3.1.)
· If you wish to adjust the "slope" times or other parameters,
after making these adjustments which are necessary in
order to weld, follow the steps described in paragraph 3.1.
· Weld, even briefly, and decide where to save
· To save in the previously selected program, press the but-
ton Q for more than 3 seconds, until the number stops flash-
ing.
· To save in a different program, make your selection by
briefly pressing the push-button Q, then hold down the
push-button Q for more than 3 seconds.
3.6.3
Save from a saved program
Beginning with a previously saved program, the operator
All manuals and user guides at all-guides.com
may edit the data in memory to update the program itself, or
to find new parameters to save in another program.
3.6.3.1 Update
· After turning on the machine, select the parameters to be
edited and edit them.
· Weld, even briefly.
· Hold down the Q button for more than 3 seconds, until the
save is confirmed (program symbol changes from flashing to
steady).
3.6.3.2 Save in a new program
· After turning on the machine, select the parameters to be
edited and edit them.
· Weld, even briefly.
· Briefly press the selector Q until the desired program is dis-
played.
· Hold down the Q button until the save is confirmed (pro-
gram symbol changes from flashing to steady).
4 REMOTE CONTROLS
The following remote controls may be connected to adjust
the welding current for this welding machine:
Art. 1270 TIG torch button only.(air-cooling)
Art. 1273 TIG torch button only.(water-cooling)
Art. 1266 TIG torch UP/DOWN.(air-cooling)
Art. 1274 TIG torch UP/DOWN.(water-cooling)
ART. 193 may be used in any TIG welding mode with this
accessory.
Remote controls that include a potentiometer regulate
the welding current from the minimum to the maximum
current set via the knob O.
Remote controls with UP/DOWN logic regulate the
welding current from the minimum to the maximum.
The remote control settings are always active in the PL pro-
gram, while they are not active in a saved program.
