Switching on the welding system
To switch on the power source and wire feeder, turn the power source main switch to ON (I) position. When
the power source is on, the power indicator LED in the indicator panel is green.
Figure 26: Switching on the welding system
The wire feeder starts to the same operation state where it was before the last shutdown. Turn the main
switch to start and shut down the welder. Do not use the mains plug as a switch.
Note:
If the welder is left unused for a longer period, detach the mains plug to disconnect it from the
mains.
Switching on Control Pad
To switch on Control Pad, press and hold the power button for a few seconds.
Preparing cooler
Fill the coolant container inside the cooler with Kemppi coolant liquid. To weld, you must pump the coolant
through the system. Press the coolant circulation button in the front panel of the power source. It activates
the motor, which pumps the coolant to the hoses and to the welding gun.
When you press and hold the coolant circulation button, the pump begins to circulate the coolant. The line
continues to fill up automatically even if you release the button. Press the coolant circulation button again
during the automatic filling to interrupt the fill-up, for example, if any coupling is loose. If the line does not
fill up during 1 minute after the button has been released, the automatic filling stops and the indicator LED
blinks green and red in turns.
