- Asopọ agbara: Connect the welder to a 230V, 50Hz power supply with a 16A circuit breaker. Ensure the power switch on the welder is in the "OFF" position before plugging it in.
- Fifi sori ẹrọ waya:
- Open the wire compartment.
- Mount the flux-cored wire spool (up to 0.9 mm diameter) onto the spindle.
- Feed the wire through the guide tube and into the drive rollers.
- Adjust the drive roller tension to prevent slipping or crushing the wire.
- Pa kompaktimenti.
- Torch and Ground Clamp Asopọmọra:
- Ensure the welding torch is securely connected to the front panel of the welder.
- So ilẹ clamp cable to the designated terminal on the welder.
- Igbaradi Iṣẹ-iṣẹ: Clean the workpiece thoroughly to remove rust, paint, oil, or other contaminants that could affect weld quality.

- Agbara Tan: Switch the welder to the "ON" position.
- So Ilẹ Clamp: Ni ifipamo so ilẹ clamp si awọn workpiece, aridaju ti o dara itanna olubasọrọ.
- Yan Ipele Agbara: The SG 120 A offers two power levels: 60A and 90A. Select the appropriate level based on the material thickness.
- For thinner materials (e.g., 1.5 mm), use the lower setting (60A).
- For thicker materials (up to 5 mm), use the higher setting (90A).
- Adjust Wire Feed Speed: Use the control knob to adjust the wire feed speed. Start with a moderate setting and adjust as needed to achieve a stable arc and good weld penetration.
- Alurinmorin:
- Position the welding torch approximately 10-15 mm from the workpiece.
- Press the trigger on the torch to initiate the arc and wire feed.
- Maintain a consistent travel speed and torch angle to create a uniform weld bead.
- Flux-cored welding produces slag, which will need to be removed after welding.
- Idaabobo Alapapo: If the welder overheats, the thermal protection will activate, and the unit will temporarily shut down. Allow it to cool down before resuming operation.
- Agbara Pa: After welding, release the torch trigger, switch the welder to "OFF," and disconnect it from the power supply.
6. Itọju
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and safe operation of your welder.
- Ninu: Regularly clean the welding unit, especially the ventilation openings, to prevent dust and debris buildup. Use compressed air if available.
- Ìtọ́jú Ìtọ́sọ́nà:
- Inspect the contact tip for wear and replace if necessary.
- Ensure the nozzle is clean and free of spatter.
- Check the torch cable for damage.
- Wire Drive System: Periodically check the wire drive rollers for wear and ensure they are clean.
- Ilẹ Clamp: Rii daju ilẹ clamp is clean and provides a secure connection.
