Your new product Thank you for selecting this Jasic Technology, Wilkinson Star product. This product manual has been designed to ensure that you get the most from your new product. Please ensure that you are fully conversant with the information provided paying particular attention to the safety precautions. The information will help protect yourself and others against the potential hazards that you may come across.
1 Safety Precautions These general safety norms cover both arc welding machines and plasma cutting machines unless otherwise noted. The equipment must only be used for the purpose it was Insulate yourself from work and ground using dry insulating mats or covers big enough to prevent any physical contact with the work ground. Never touch the electrode if you are in contact with the work ground, or another electrode from a different machine. designed for.
Do not weld on coated metals, unless the coating is removed from the weld area, the area is well ventilated, and while wearing an air-supplied respirator. The coatings on many metals can give off toxic fumes if welded. Prevention against burns and radiation Arc rays from the welding process produce intense, visible and invisible (ultraviolet and infrared) rays that can burn eyes and skin.
RF Declaration Equipment that complies with directive 2004/108/EC concerning electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) and the technical requirements of EN60974-10 is designed for use in industrial buildings and not those for domestic use where electricity is provided via the low voltage public distribution system. Difficulties may arise in assuring class A electromagnetic compatibility for systems installed in domestic locations due to conducted and radiated emissions.
2 Product Overview The unique electronic structure and air channel design in this series of machines provides efficient cooling of the power devices as well as improving the duty cycles of the machines. The design of the forced air-cooling system channel can effectively prevent the power devices and control circuits from being damaged by the dust introduced into the machine by the fan. The reliability of the machine is greatly improved as a result.

4 Controls Front view 1. Overheating LED: Overheating LED on indicates that the temperature inside the machine is too high and the machine is under overheating protection status. 2. Power LED: Power LED on indicates that the power switch of the machine is on. 3. MMA/TIG switch: To toggle between MMA and TIG. 4. "+" Output terminal: To connect the electrode holder. 5. "-" Output terminal: To connect the work clamp. 6. Trademark 7. Welding current knob: To adjust the output current. 8.
5 Installation Unpacking MMA welding Check the packaging for any signs of damage. Insert the cable plug with electrode holder into the “+” socket on the front panel of the welding machine, and tighten it clockwise. Carefully remove the machine and retain the packaging until the installation is complete.
Operation Before starting any welding activity ensure that you have suitable eye protection and protective clothing. Also take the necessary steps to protect any persons within the area.
6 Maintenance and troubleshooting The following operation requires sufficient professional knowledge on electric aspects and comprehensive safety knowledge. Make sure the input cable of the machine is disconnected from the electricity supply and Troubleshooting Before arc welding machines are dispatched from the factory, they have already been checked thoroughly. The machine should not be tampered with or altered. wait for 5 minutes before removing the machine covers.
