2.10 shield gas
NOTE!
Handle gas bottle with care. There is a risk for injury if gas bottle or bottle valve is damaged!
Use inert gases such as argon, helium or argon-helium mixture as shield gas for TIG welding.
Make sure that the gas flow regulator is suitable for the gas type used. The flow rate is set according to the welding current, joint form and the size of the electrode. A suitable flow rate is normally 8 – 10 l/min. If the gas flow is not suitable the welded joint will be porous. Spark ignition becomes more difficult if the gas flow is too high. Contact your local Kemppi dealer for choosing gas and equipment.

3.2.7 foot pedal control r11f
First read under ”3.2.2.4. TIG welding panel MTL” point ”6. Remote control” for installing the remote control ready for operation. Foot pedal R11F is used in TIG welding, and its control range is adjustable. The minimum value of control range is set with the panel potentiometer when the pedal is not pressed, display shows ”LO”. Control range maximum is set similarly by pressing first the PEDAL LO/HI button on the panel, display shows ”HI”. Welding is started with a light press on the pedal, the arc ignites to the set minimum current. Welding current goes to maximum when the pedal is pressed to the bottom. The arc is broken when the pedal is released. Adjust again if necessary.
3.3 Cooling unit operation masterCool 10
The operation of cooling unit MasterCool 10 is controlled by the power source. The cooling unit pump starts automatically when welding starts. Proceed as follows:
1. Start power source.
2. Check water level and input flow of the reservoir, add liquid if needed.
3. If you use a water-cooled torch you can fill it with water by pressing WATER FILL
(HF CONTACT) button for more than 2 seconds.
The pump operates for 5 another minutes after welding has been finished to cool the water to the same temperature as in the machine surrounds. This reduces the need of service.
thermal overload
The thermal overload light is lit, the machine stops and display shows COOLER when temperature control of the machine has detected cooling water overheating. The cooling unit fan cools down the water, and when the light goes out welding can be started again.
Water flow signal
Display shows COOLER when there is no pressure enough for water to flow.
3.4 storage
The machine must be stored in a clean and dry room. Protect the machine from rain and direct sunshine in places where temperature exceeds +25 °C.

4. maintenanCe
NOTE!
Watch out for mains voltage when handling electric cables!
Degree and circumstances of machine utilisation should be taken into consideration when planning product maintenance. Careful use and preventive maintenance help to avoid unnecessary production disturbances and breaks. Check the condition of the welding and connection cables daily. Do not use damaged cables.
4.1 regular maintenance
4.1.1 every sixth months
NOTE!
Disconnect the plug of the machine from the mains socket and wait for ca. 2 minutes
(capacitor charge) before removing the casing plate.
the following maintenance operations should be carried out at least every sixth months:
• Electric connections of the machine – clean any oxidised parts and tighten any loose ones. NOTE! You must know the correct tension torques before you start repairing the connections.
• Clean the inner parts of the machine from dust and dirt e.g. with a soft brush and a vacuum cleaner. Do not use compressed air because there is the danger that the dirt is packed even more tightly in the gaps of the cooling profiles. Do not use a pressure washer.
NOTE!
Only an authorised electrician may repair the machine.
