3.4 WELDING TORCH CONNECTION.
• Connect the welding torch to the central adapter F.
• Mount the wire coil.
• Make sure that the groove of the rollers matches the
wire diameter used. To replace, proceed as follows
(Fig. 8):
BN
CA
Open the door of the wire feeder compartment
Remove the cover CA of the wire feeder unit.
Release the wire press rollers by means of the pressure
adjusting knob BN.
Replace the rollers and put the cover CA back in place.
Insert the wire into the feeder and into the welding
torch sheath.
Block the wire press rollers with the knob BN and ad-
just the pressure.
Connect the earth cable (provided) to the socket G.
Connect the gas hose.
3.5 ASSEMBLY OF THE COOLING UNIT (ART. 1683 -
OPTIONAL FOR ART. 306-308-316 AND 316) (Fig 9)
If a cooling unit is used, proceed as follows:
• Remove the panel M
• Insert the cooling unit inside the compartment so that
the fl uid level inspecting slot can be seen from the front
of the unit.
• Fasten it to the welding machine trolley by means of
provided screws.

3.6 POSITIONING
Position the welding machine to allow for a free air circu-
lation inside the machine and make sure to prevent intro-
duction of metal powders or any other dust.
3.6.1 Sloping planes.
Since this welding machine is equipped with wheels with-
out brake, do not position it on sloping planes, to prevent
machine tilting or uncontrolled movement.
3.7 START-UP
• Only skilled personnel should install the machine.
• All connections must be carried out in compliance with
current standards (IEC/CEI EN 60974-9) and in full ob-
servance of current safety laws.
• Mount the plug on the power cord, being especially
carefully to connect the yellow/green conductor to the
earth pole.
• Make sure that the supply voltage corresponds to the
rated voltage of the welding machine. In "Multi Voltage"
models, the machine automatically adapts to the sup-
ply voltage of the unit it's connected to.
• Size the protective fuses based on the data listed on
the technical specifi cations plate.
