5. Подешавање

5.1 Прикључак за напајање

The FLARING FM155 operates on 110V AC power. Ensure your power source meets the voltage requirements and is properly grounded. Use a dedicated circuit if possible to avoid overloading.

5.2 Wire Installation (Gasless MIG)

For Gasless MIG welding, install the flux-cored wire spool. The machine supports 0.030" (0.8mm), 0.035" (0.9mm), and 0.040" (1.0mm) flux core wire sizes. The included wire is 0.8mm (0.5kg).

  1. Отворите одељак за довод жице.
  2. Place the wire spool onto the spool retainer. Ensure it rotates freely.
  3. Feed the wire through the wire guide and into the drive roller mechanism.
  4. Secure the wire with the wire pressing wheel, ensuring proper tension.
  5. Затворите одељак.
  6. Connect the MIG welding torch to the appropriate port on the front panel.

5.3 Electrode Holder and Ground Clamp Connection (Stick/Lift TIG)

For Stick welding or Lift TIG (requires an additional TIG torch), connect the electrode holder and ground clamp:

  1. Повежите уземљење цлamp cable to the negative (-) terminal on the welder.
  2. Спојите кабл држача електроде на позитивни (+) терминал на апарату за заваривање.
  3. Причврстите подлогу цлamp securely to the workpiece or welding table, ensuring good electrical contact.

6. Упутство за употребу

The FLARING FM155 offers three welding modes: Gasless MIG, Stick, and Lift TIG. Select the appropriate mode using the controls on the front panel.

6.1 Gasless MIG Welding

Gasless MIG welding uses flux-cored wire, eliminating the need for external shielding gas. This is ideal for outdoor use or when portability is key.

  1. Ensure flux-cored wire is correctly installed (refer to Section 5.2).
  2. Select "MIG Gasless" mode on the control panel.
  3. Adjust current (Amperage) and voltage settings based on the material thickness and wire diameter. The LED display will guide you.
  4. Position the MIG torch at the desired angle (typically 10-15 degrees from vertical) and maintain a consistent stick-out.
  5. Press the trigger to initiate the arc and begin welding.
