Insulate work clamp when not connected to work piece to prevent contact with any metal object. ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill. Touching live electrical parts can cause fatal shocks or severe burns. The electrode and work circuit is electrically live whenever the output is on. The input power circuit and machine internal circuits are also live when power is on. In semiautomatic or automatic wire welding, the wire, wire reel, drive roll housing, and all metal parts touching the welding wire are electrically live. Incorrectly installed or improperly grounded equipment is a hazard. FUMES AND GASES can be hazardous. Do not touch live electrical parts. Keep your head out of the fumes. Do not breathe the fumes. If inside, ventilate the area and/or use local forced ventilation at the arc to remove welding fumes and gases. Wear dry, sound insulating gloves and body protection. If ventilation is poor, wear an approved respirator. Insulate yourself from work and ground using dry insulating mats or covers big enough to prevent any physical contact with the work ground. Read and understand the Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS’s) and the manufacturer’s instructions for metals, consumable, coatings, cleaners, and de-greasers. Additional safety precautions are required when any of the following electrically hazardous conditions are present: in damp locations or while wearing wet clothing; on metal structures such as floors, gratings, or scaffolds; when in cramped positions such as sitting, kneeling, or lying; or when there is a high risk of unavoidable or accidental contact with the work piece or ground. For these conditions, use the following equipment in order presented: 1) a semiautomatic DC constant voltage (wire) welder, 2) a DC manual (stick) welder, And, do not work alone! Disconnect input power before installing or servicing this equipment. Lockout/tagout input power according to Safety Standards. Properly install and ground this equipment according to national and local standards. Always verify the supply ground - check and ensure that input power cable ground wire is properly connected to ground terminal in the receptacle outlet. When making input connections, attach proper grounding conductor first - double-check connections. Frequently inspect input power cable for damage or bare wiring replace cable immediately if damaged - bare wiring can kill. Turn off all equipment when not in use. Do not use worn, damaged, under sized, or poorly spliced cables. Do not drape cables over your body. If earth grounding of the work piece is required, ground it directly with a separate cable. Do not touch electrode if you are in contact with the work, ground, or another electrode from a different machine. Use only well-maintained equipment. Repair or replace damaged parts at once. Maintain unit according to manual. Wear a safety harness if working above floor level. Keep all panels and covers securely in place. 4 Welding produces fumes and gases. Breathing these fumes and gases can be hazardous to your health. Clamp work cable with good metal-to-metal contact to work piece or www.parweld.com Work in a confined space only if it is well ventilated, or while wearing an air-supplied respirator. Always have a trained watch person nearby. Welding fumes and gases can displace air and lower the oxygen level causing injury or death. Be sure the breathing air is safe. Do not weld in locations near de-greasing, cleaning, or spraying operations. The heat and rays of the arc can react with vapours to form highly toxic and irritating gases. Do not weld on coated metals, such as galvanized, lead, or cadmium plated steel, unless the coating is removed from the weld area, the area is well ventilated, and while wearing an air-supplied respirator. The coatings and any metals containing these elements can give off toxic fumes if welded. ARC RAYS can burn eyes and skin. Arc rays from the welding process produce intense, visible and invisible (ultraviolet and infrared) rays that can burn eyes and skin. Sparks fly off from the weld. Wear an approved welding helmet fitted with a proper shade of filter lenses to protect your face and eyes when welding or watching Wear approved safety glasses with side shields under your helmet. Use protective screens or barriers to protect others from flash, glare and sparks; warn others not to watch the arc. Wear protective clothing made from durable, flame resistant material (leather, heavy cotton, or wool) and foot protection. Welding on closed containers, such as tanks, drums, or pipes, can cause them to blow up. Sparks can fly off from the welding arc. The flying sparks, hot work piece, and hot equipment can cause fires and burns. Accidental contact of electrode to metal objects can cause sparks, explosion, overheating, or fire. Check and be sure the area is safe before doing any welding. WELDING can cause fire or explosion. Remove all flammables within 10m of the welding arc. If this is not possible, tightly cover them with approved covers. Do not weld where flying sparks can strike flammable material. Protect yourself and others from flying sparks and hot metal. Be alert that welding sparks and hot materials from welding can easily go through small cracks and openings to adjacent areas. Watch for fire, and keep a fire extinguisher nearby. Be aware that welding on a ceiling, floor, bulkhead, or partition can cause fire on the hidden side. Do not weld on closed containers such as tanks, drums, or pipes, unless they are properly prepared according to local regulations Connect work cable to the work as close to the welding area as practical to prevent welding current from travelling along, possibly unknown paths and causing electric shock, sparks, and fire hazards. Cut off welding wire at contact tip when not in use. Wear oil-free protective garments such as leather gloves, heavy shirt, cuffless trousers, high shoes, and a cap. Remove any combustibles, such as a butane lighter or matches, from your person before doing any welding. FLYING METAL can injure eyes. Welding, chipping, wire brushing, and grinding cause sparks and flying metal. As welds cool they can throw off slag. Wear approved safety glasses with side shields even under your welding helmet. BUILDUP OF GAS can injure or kill. Shut off shielding gas supply when not in use. Always ventilate confined spaces or use approved air-supplied respirator. CYLINDERS can explode if damaged. Protect compressed gas cylinders from excessive heat, mechanical shocks, physical damage, slag, open flames, sparks, and arcs. Install cylinders in an upright position by securing to a stationary support or cylinder rack to prevent falling or tipping. Keep cylinders away from any welding or other electrical circuits. Never drape a welding torch over a gas cylinder. Never allow a welding electrode to touch any cylinder. Never weld on a pressurized cylinder - explosion will result. Use only correct shielding gas cylinders, regulators, hoses, and fittings designed for the specific application; maintain them and associated parts in good condition. Turn face away from valve outlet when opening cylinder valve. Use the right equipment, correct procedures, and sufficient number of persons to lift and move cylinders. Read and follow instructions on compressed gas cylinders, associated equipment, and Compressed Gas Association (CGA) 2.0 Product Description The XTM 404S is complete semiautomatic constant voltage DC arc welding machines built to meet CE specifications. They combine a constant voltage power source and a constant speed wire feeder with a microcomputer-based controller to form a reliable high-performance welding system.

Digital meters display the actual welding voltage and amperage and the machine has additional controls for adjustment of burn back and soft starting. HOT PARTS can cause severe burns. Do not touch hot parts with bare handed. Allow cooling period before working on gun or torch. To handle hot parts, use proper tools and/or wear heavy, insulated welding gloves and clothing to prevent burns. MAGNETIC FIELDS can affect pacemakers. Pacemaker wearers keep away. Wearers should consult their doctor before going near arc welding, gouging, or spot welding operations. NOISE can damage hearing. Noise from some processes or equipment can damage hearing. Wear approved ear protection if noise level is high. Shielding gas cylinders contain gas under high pressure. 5 www.parweld.com 3.0 Technical Specifications 11. 2T 4T, when in the 2T position the torch trigger will have a momentary operation ie the welding operation will start when the rigger is depressed and stop when it is released. In the 4T position a short press and release of the trigger will start the welding operation and a short press and release with stop the operation. The 4T mode is ideal for long welds as it reduces operator fatigue. Gas purge. Allows gas to flow through the welding torch and so allow checking of the gas flow before starting the welding process. 12. Wire feed speed adjustment, controls the speed of wire feeding from 0.8 to 24 m/min. Increasing the wire feed speed also has the effect of increasing the welding current. 13. Burn back control affects the wire feed motor over run when the trigger is released and can be adjusted to ensure that the wire does not burn back onto the contact tip at the end of the weld. (Increase to reduce wire stickout). 14. Soft start adjustment which controls the acceleration of the wire feed motor when the arc starts to reduce spatter and give a cleaner arc initiation. 15.

Release the pressure on the idle rolls by swinging the adjustable pressure arm (3) down. Lift the cast idle roll assembly and allow it to sit in an upright position. 3. Unscrew the screws retaining the lower grooved drive roll and side off the drive roller. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS • ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill. • Only qualified personnel should perform this installation. • Only personnel that have read and understood the Operating Manual should install and operate this equipment. 4. Ensure the wire size marked on the side of the feed roller matches the wire size to be used. • Machine must be grounded per any national, local or other applicable electrical regulations. 5. • The MIG power switch is to be in the OFF position when installing work cable and torch and when connecting other equipment. Replace the drive rolls in reverse of the above procedure ensuring the wire size to be used is marked on the outward facing side of the roller as it is refitted. NOTE: Be sure that the torch liner and contact tip are also sized to match the selected wire size. 6 5.1 Unpacking the Machine Cut banding and lift off cardboard carton. Cut banding holding the machine to the skid. Remove corrugated packing material. Remove accessories from Gas Bottle Platform. Roll the machine off the skid. 3 7 5.2 Location 2 Locate the welder in a dry location where there is free circulation of clean air into the louvres in the back and out the front. A location that minimizes the amount of smoke and dirt drawn into the rear louvres reduces the chance of dirt accumulation that can block air passages and cause overheating. 5.3 Input and Grounding Connection Check that there is a gap between the rollers and wire guide at torch installation (see 5.8) 4 WARNING Before starting the installation, check that your power supply is adequate for the voltage, amperage, phase, and frequency specified on the Machine nameplate. The 400 volt 50 Hz machine is supplied with a 4m input cable and without plug, ensure that you connect a plug that is suitably rated for the power draw of the machine and the environmental location. Have a qualified electrician connect the input plug. For long runs over 30m, larger copper wires should be used. The green/yellow wire in the input cable connects to the frame of the machine. This ensures proper grounding of the machine when the machine plug is inserted into the receptacle. 5.4 Assembly of Separate Wire Feeder Lift the wire feeder up onto the power source and locate the post into the tube on the underside of the wire feeder taking care to ensure it is fully located on the post. Connection of the interconnect cable. Working at the wire feeder end insert the Dinse power connector and twist it to lock it securely. Connect the gas hose to the inlet on the rear of the wire feeder followed by the control plug taking care to align the pins before inserting the plug. At the power source end connect the Dinse socket and twist to secure, connect the control socket taking care to align the pins before inserting the plug. The gas hose should be lead off to the outlet connection of the gas regulator. 5.5 Output Polarity Connections The welder, as shipped from the factory, is connected for electrode positive (+) polarity. This is the normal polarity for MIG welding. 8 www.parweld.com 1 1. 2. 3. 4. Feeding rolls Pressure roll Pressure adjustment Wire inlet 5 5. 6. 7. Plate Motor 42V, 50 W Pressure arm 5.7 Welding Wire Installation 6. Open the Wire drum cover by pulling down and out on the bottom of the cover 7. Unscrew the plastic retaining wheel from the end of the spool holder shaft. 8. Position the wire spool so that it will rotate in a direction when feeding so as to be de-reeled from the bottom of the coil. 9. Slide the wire spool all the way onto the shaft and refit the plastic retaining nut. Note:- There is a friction brake on the reel hub assembly to prevent the wire spool over running when welding stops ensure the this is slackened to the minimum setting. It can be adjusted by means of the nut visible when the plastic nut is removed. 10. Turn the Spool until the free end of the electrode is accessible. While securely holding the electrode, cut off the bent end and straighten the first six inches. (If the electrode is not properly straightened, it may not feed properly through the wire drive system Manually feed the wire from the wire reel and through the wire guide and then over the top of the wire feed rollers (ensure the pressure arms are in the raised position.) 11. Continue to feed the wire through the outlet guide until 20mm of wire is protruding from the front of the machine torch connector. 12. Reposition the adjustable pressure arms to there original position to apply pressure. Adjust pressure as necessary. Note the pressure arm should be adjusted in order to give the minimum amount of pressure on the wire to allow reliable feeding, 5.8 Torch Installation Your Parweld MIG/MAG Welding Torch has been supplied ready to weld. It has been supplied with the standard consumables denoted in the product brochure. To connect the torch to the power source:13. Remove the tip adaptor and contact tip 14. Inch the wire from the exit of the wire guide on the feed unit as Figure 1. Ensure that it does not short out on any machine panels. 15. Carefully slide the electrode wire into the torch liner and slowly locate the torch gun plug body into the feed unit central connector and tighten the gun plug nut as Figure 2 Note;- To aid the initial location of a new torch and to prevent damage to the gas nipple O-ring a very light application of grease to the O Ring is beneficial. Fig 1 Fig 2 Parweld recommend the use of its XTS water recirculation system designed specifically for use with all water cooled MIG, TIG and Plasma welding torches. The Parweld XTS recirculation equipment can be fitted with a failsafe flow protection device to prevent overheating or meltdown. Note. Water flows into the torch through the blue hose. The blue hose delivers cold water directly to the prime source of heat, the swan neck and consumables. The re circulated water is then passed through the torch power cable to cool the power cable as it is returned to the cooler through the red water return lead. Ensure all air is removed from the water cooling circuit before welding. 5.9 Work Return Lead Connection Insert the work return lead connector into the receptacle on the front panel of the machine and twist it clockwise until tightly secured. Connect the earth clamp to the work piece as close as possible to the point to be welded and ensure that a good electrical connection is created to bare metal. Note the XTM404S has 2 work return lead sockets providing different inductance settings refer to the Operating Instructions for your perfered setting. 5.10 Shielding Gas Connection 1. Connect gas hose to the output connection of a gas regulator capable of supplying the correct gas flow for the welding operation. Note if the gas cylinder is to be stored on the back of the machine ensure it is secured using the retention chain provided 16. Keeping the torch as straight as possible, use the power source inch facility or torch trigger to feed the electrode wire 50mm from the end of the liner conduit. x 17. Once the electrode wire has stopped, refit the tip adaptor, diffuser, contact tip and gas nozzle. 18. Trim the electrode wire to within 5mm of the face of the nozzle, this will facilitate jolt free arc initiation. 19. Press the gas purge button and check the gas flow is adequate for your application. 20. An inexpensive flow meter is available from Parweld reference 806001. 21. If you are using a water-cooled torch ensure you have the recommended water flow rate. Note;- It is essential to ensure adequate flow of clean, cool water to prevent irreparable torch failure, a minimum of 1.2 l/ min is recommended. 6.0 Operation 1. Switch on the machine using the switch on the front panel. 2. Turn the “VOLTAGE SELECTOR” switches Set voltage midway between high/low voltages. NOTE: Check that drive rolls, and torch parts are correct for the wire size and type being used. 3. The optimum idle roll pressure varies with type of wire, wire diameter, surface conditions, lubrication, and hardness. As a general rule, hard wires may require greater pressure, and soft, or aluminium wire, may require less pressure than the factory setting. The optimum idle roll setting can be determined as follows: 4. Press end of gun against a solid object that is electrically isolated from the welder output and press the gun trigger for several seconds. 5. If the wire “bird nests”, jams or breaks at the drive roll, the idle roll pressure is too great. Back the adjustment knob out 1/2 turn, run new wire. If the only result was drive roll slippage, loosen the Hand nut on the central connector and pull the gun forward about 6” (15cm) away from the power source. There should be a slight waviness in the exposed wire. If there is no waviness, the pressure is too low. Tighten the adjustment knob 1/4 turn, reinstall the gun cable and repeat the above steps. 9 www.parweld.com 6.1 Feeding Wire Electrode 6.3 Additional Welding Controls Note when triggering, the electrode and drive mechanism are electrically “LIVE” relative to work and ground and remain “LIVE” several seconds after the gun trigger is released. Burn back adjustment. When welding at high amperages the wire can often burn back onto or close to the contact tip to prevent this happening you can increase the burn back control (18) located inside the wire spool cover. WARNING When using an open arc process, it is necessary to use correct eye, head, and body protection. 1. Position wire over joint. The end of the wire may be lightly touching the work. 2. Lower welding helmet, operate gun trigger, and begin welding. Hold the gun so the contact tip to work distance is about 3/8” (10 mm). 3. To stop welding, release the gun trigger and then pull the gun away from the work after the arc goes out. 4. When no more welding is to be done, close valve on gas cylinder (if used), momentarily operate gun trigger to release gas pressure and turn off the machine. 6.2 Optimising Weld Parameters Soft Start. The soft start control slows the acceleration of the wire feed motor as the act starts and so reduces wire snubing and spatter at the weld start. This control should be adjusted to give a smoother start to the weld. (17). Inductance setting XTM404S. This allows 2 levels of inductance to give the desired arc characteristics typically for low amperage with dip transfer you should use the low inductance setting as this speeds the burn off of the wire in dip transfer mode. For higher amperages and spray transfer the higher inductance setting is preferable. 7.0 Fault Finding Problem Cause/Corrective Action Porosity - small cavities or holes Resulting from gas pockets in weld metal. Inadequate shielding gas coverage. Check for proper gas flow rate. Remove spatter from gun nozzle. NOTE These settings are guidelines only. Material and wire type, joint design, fit up, position, shielding gas, etc. affect settings. Produce test welds to be sure they comply to specifications. Check gas hoses for leaks. Eliminate drafts near welding arc. Material thickness determines weld parameters. 1. Convert Material Thickness to Amperage (A) (0.25mm= 1 Amp) 3.2mm = 125 A 2. Select Wire Size Amperage Range Wire Size 40 - 145 A 0.8 mm 50 - 180 A 1.0 mm 75 - 250 A 1.2 mm 3. Place nozzle 6-13 mm from work piece Hold gun near bead at end of weld until molten metal solidifies. Wrong gas. Use welding grade shielding gas; change to different gas. Dirty welding wire. Use clean, dry welding wire. Eliminate pickup of oil or lubricant on welding wire from feeder or liner. Select Wire Speed (Amperage) Wire Size Feed speed 0.8 mm 0.05m/min per Amp 1.0 mm 0.04m/min per Amp 1.2 mm 0.025m/min per Amp Work piece dirty. Remove all grease, oil, moisture, rust, paint, coatings, and dirt from work surface before welding. Use a more highly deoxidizing welding wire (contact supplier). Welding wire extends too far out of nozzle. So based on 3.2 mm material thickness amperage should be 125A if using 1.0mm wire then the wire feed speed should be Be sure welding wire extends not more than 13 mm beyond nozzle. 0.04 X 125= 5m/min Wire speed (amperage) controls weld penetration 4. Select Voltage. Voltage controls height and width of weld bead. Low Voltage: wire stubs into work High Voltage: arc is unstable (spatter) Set voltage midway between high/low voltages, and then fine tune accordingly 10 NOTE These settings are guidelines only. Material and wire type, joint design, fit up, position, shielding gas, etc. affect settings. Produce test welds to be sure they comply to specifications. www.parweld.com Incomplete fusion to base metal Work piece dirty. Remove all grease, oil, moisture, rust, paint, coatings, and dirt from work surface before welding. Insufficient heat input. Select higher voltage range and/or adjust wire feed speed. Improper welding technique. Place stringer bead in proper locations) at joint during welding. Adjust work angle or widen groove to access bottom during welding. Problem Cause/Corrective Action Problem Cause/Corrective Action Incomplete fusion to base metal Adjust work angle or widen groove to access bottom during welding. Momentarily hold arc on groove side walls when using weaving technique. Keep arc on leading edge of weld puddle. Use correct gun angle of 0 to 15 degrees. Wire feed unit operates, but does not feed Incorrect liner Excessive Penetration – weld metal melting through base metal and hanging underneath weld. Excessive heat input. Select lower voltage range and reduce wire feed speed. Increase travel speed. Lack Of Penetration - shallow Fusion between weld metal and Base metal. Improper joint preparation. Material too thick. Joint preparation and design must provide access to bottom of groove while maintaining Proper welding wire extension and arc characteristics. Improper weld technique. Maintain normal gun angle of 0 to 15 degrees to achieve maximum penetration. Keep arc on leading edge of weld puddle. Ensure welding wire extends not more than 13 mm beyond nozzle. Insufficient heat input. Select higher wire feed speed and/or select higher voltage range. Reduce travel speed. Burn-Through weld metal melting Completely through base metal Resulting in holes where no metal remains. Excessive heat input. Select lower voltage range and reduce wire feed speed. Increase and/or maintain steady travel speed. Excessive Spatter - scattering of Molten metal particles that cool to solid form near weld bead. Wire feed speed too high. Select lower wire feed speed. Voltage too high. Select lower voltage range. Electrode extension (stick out) too long. Use shorter electrode extension (sick out). Work piece dirty. Remove all grease, oil, moisture, rust, paint, undercoating, and dirt from work surface before welding. Insufficient shielding gas at welding arc. Increase flow of shielding gas at regulator/flow meter and/or prevent drafts near welding arc. Dirty welding wire. Use clean, dry welding wire. Eliminate pickup of oil or lubricant on welding wire from feeder or liner. Wire feed unit operates but no gas flow .
