2. Sigurnosna uputstva
Uvijek dajte prioritet sigurnosti prilikom rukovanja opremom za zavarivanje. Nepoštivanje sigurnosnih mjera opreza može dovesti do ozbiljnih povreda ili smrti.
- Električni udar može ubiti: Osigurajte pravilno uzemljenje. Ne dodirujte električne dijelove pod naponom. Nosite suhe rukavice za zavarivanje i zaštitnu odjeću.
- Isparenja i plinovi mogu biti opasni: Work in a well-ventilated area. Use local exhaust ventilation or a respirator if necessary.
- Lukovi mogu opeći oči i kožu: Wear a welding helmet with appropriate shade filter. Protect exposed skin with flame-resistant clothing.
- Opasnost od požara i eksplozije: Držite zapaljive materijale dalje od područja zavarivanja. Imajte aparat za gašenje požara pri ruci.
- Vrući dijelovi mogu uzrokovati teške opekotine: Ostavite zavarene materijale i opremu da se ohlade prije rukovanja.
- Pročitajte priručnik: Prije upotrebe mašine upoznajte se sa svim uputama i upozorenjima.
- Održavanje: Only qualified personnel should perform maintenance and repairs.

4. Podešavanje
Follow these steps to set up your CaddyTig 2200i TA34 AC/DC welding machine:
- Priključak za napajanje: Connect the machine to a single-phase power supply. Ensure the power source meets the machine's requirements. The integrated PFC circuit allows for use with extra-long mains cables (over 100m) and portable generators.
- Plinski priključak: Connect the appropriate shielding gas cylinder (e.g., Argon for TIG welding) to the gas inlet on the machine. Ensure all connections are secure and leak-free.
- Priključak plamenika: Connect the TIG torch to the designated connector on the machine. The CaddyTig 2200i AC/DC features robust, shock-resistant cable connectors with OKC 50.
- Rad Clamp veza: Priložiti rad clamp cable to the machine and securely fasten the clamp na radni komad ili sto za zavarivanje, osiguravajući dobar električni kontakt.
- Instalacija elektrode: Install the correct tungsten electrode into the TIG torch collet, ensuring proper stick-out for your application.
- ventilacija: Ensure adequate ventilation in the welding area to disperse fumes and gases.
5. Operativni
The CaddyTig 2200i TA34 AC/DC offers advanced controls for precise welding.
- Uključeno: Uključite glavni prekidač. Kontrolna ploča će se osvijetliti.
- Parameter Setting (TA34): The TA34 version is designed to support and enhance the welder's skills. It allows for excellent welding results across a wide range of materials and thicknesses.
- Izbor AC/DC načina rada: Select either AC (for aluminum and magnesium) or DC (for steel, stainless steel, copper, etc.) welding mode based on the material.
- Trenutna prilagodba: Podesite struju zavarivanja (amperage) according to the material thickness and type.
- AC Frequency and Balance (AC Mode): Fine-tune AC frequency and balance to optimize arc stability and cleaning action on aluminum.
- Pulsed TIG (DC Mode): Activate and adjust pulse parameters (peak current, base current, pulse frequency) for better heat input control, especially on thin materials. The Micro Pulse function further minimizes the heat-affected zone.
- Upslope/Downslope (TA34): The TA34 version comes with adjustable upslope and downslope, allowing for controlled start and end of the weld bead, preventing crater defects.
- 2-Program Function (TA34): Utilize the 2-program function to pre-set and quickly switch between different welding parameters for varying tasks or material thicknesses during a single welding session.
- Initiating Arc: Use the torch trigger to initiate the arc. Maintain proper arc length and torch angle for optimal results.
- Post-Flow: Allow the gas post-flow to protect the cooling weld and electrode from atmospheric contamination.
6. Održavanje
Redovno održavanje osigurava dugotrajnost i optimalne performanse vašeg aparata za zavarivanje.
- čišćenje: Periodically clean the machine's exterior with a dry cloth. Use compressed air to blow out dust and debris from inside the machine, especially from cooling vents. Ensure the machine is disconnected from power before cleaning.
- Inspekcija kablova i konektora: Regularly inspect all cables (power, torch, work clamp) for damage, cuts, or frayed insulation. Check connectors for tightness and corrosion. Replace damaged components immediately.
- Održavanje plamenika: Inspect the TIG torch consumables (collet, collet body, ceramic cup, tungsten electrode) regularly. Replace worn or damaged parts to ensure consistent arc quality.
- Provjera plinskog sistema: Verify that gas hoses are not kinked or leaking. Ensure the gas regulator is functioning correctly.
