Safety Precautions

ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.

• Touching live electrical parts can cause fatal shocks or severe burns. The electrode and work circuit is electrically live whenever the output is on. The input power circuit and machine internal circuits are also live when power is on.
• Do not touch live electrical parts.
• Wear dry, sound insulating gloves and body protection.
• Insulate yourself from work and ground using dry insulating mats or covers big enough to prevent any physical contact with the work ground.
• Additional safety precautions are required when any of the following electrically hazardous conditions are present: in damp locations or while wearing wet clothing; on metal structures such as floors, gratings, or scaffolds; when in cramped positions such as sitting, kneeling, or lying; or when there is a high risk of unavoidable or accidental contact with the work piece or ground.
• Disconnect input power before installing or servicing this equipment. Lockout/tagout input power according to Safety Standards.
• Properly install and ground this equipment according to national and local standards.
• Always verify the supply ground – check and ensure that input power cable ground wire is properly connected to ground terminal in the  receptacle outlet.
• When making input connections, attach proper grounding conductor first – double-check connections.
• Frequently inspect input power cable for damage or bare wiring – replace cable immediately if damaged – bare wiring can kill.
• Turn off all equipment when not in use.
• Do not use worn, damaged, under sized, or poorly spliced cables.
• Do not drape cables over your body.
• If earth grounding of the work piece is required, ground it directly with a separate cable.
• Do not touch electrode if you are in contact with the work, ground, or another electrode from a different machine.
• Use only well-maintained equipment. Repair or replace damaged parts at once. Maintain unit according to manual.
• Wear a safety harness if working above floor level.
• Keep all panels and covers securely in place.
• Clamp work cable with good metal-to-metal contact to work piece or worktable as near the weld as practical.
  Insulate work clamp when not connected to work piece to prevent contact with any metal object.

Welding produces fumes and gases. Breathing these fumes and gases can be hazardous to your health.

FUMES AND GASES can be hazardous.

• Keep your head out of the fumes. Do not breathe the fumes.
• If inside, ventilate the area and/or use local forced ventilation at the arc to remove welding fumes and gases.
• If ventilation is poor, wear an approved respirator.
• Read and understand the Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS’s) and the manufacturer’s instructions for metals, consumable, coatings, cleaners, and de-greasers.
• Work in a confined space only if it is well ventilated, or while wearing an air-supplied respirator. Always have a trained watch person nearby.
• Welding fumes and gases can displace air and lower the oxygen level causing injury or death. Be sure the breathing air is safe.
• Do not weld in locations near de-greasing, cleaning, or spraying operations. The heat and rays of the arc can react with vapours to form highly toxic and irritating gases.
• Do not weld on coated metals, such as galvanized, lead, or cadmium plated steel, unless the coating is removed from the weld area, the area is well ventilated, and while wearing an air-supplied respirator. The coatings and any metals containing these elements can give off toxic fumes if welded.

ARC RAYS can burn eyes and skin.
Arc rays from the welding process produce intense, visible and invisible (ultraviolet and infrared) rays that can burn eyes and skin. Sparks fly off from the weld.
Wear an approved welding helmet fitted with a proper shade of filter lenses to protect your face and eyes when welding or watching
Wear approved safety glasses with side shields under your helmet.
Use protective screens or barriers to protect others from flash, glare and sparks; warn others not to watch the arc.
Wear protective clothing made from durable, flame resistant material (leather, heavy cotton, or wool) and foot protection. Welding on closed containers, such as tanks, drums, or pipes, can cause them to blow up. Sparks can fly off from the welding arc. The flying sparks, hot work piece, and hot equipment can cause fires and burns. Accidental contact of electrode to metal objects can cause sparks, explosion, overheating, or fire. Check and be sure the area is safe before doing any welding.

WELDING can cause fire or explosion.
Remove all flammables within 10m of the welding arc. If this is not possible, tightly cover them with approved covers.
Do not weld where flying sparks can strike flammable material.
Protect yourself and others from flying sparks and hot metal.
Be alert that welding sparks and hot materials from welding can easily go through small cracks and openings to adjacent areas.

Watch for fire, and keep a fire extinguisher nearby. Be aware that welding on a ceiling, floor, bulkhead, or partition can cause fire on the hidden side.
Do not weld on closed containers such as tanks, drums, or pipes, unless they are properly prepared according to local regulations
Connect work cable to the work as close to the welding area as practical to prevent welding current from travelling along possibly unknown paths and causing electric shock, sparks, and fire hazards.
Wear oil-free protective garments such as leather gloves, heavy shirt, cuffless trousers, high shoes, and a cap. Remove any combustibles, such as a butane lighter or matches from your person before doing any welding.

FLYING METAL can injure eyes.
Welding, chipping, wire brushing, and grinding cause sparks and flying metal. As welds cool they can throw off slag. Wear approved safety glasses with side shields even under your welding helmet.

BUILD UP OF GAS can injure or kill.
Shut off shielding gas supply when not in use. Always ventilate confined spaces or use approved air-supplied respirator.

Read and follow instructions on compressed gas cylinders, associated equipment and Compressed Gas Association (CGA) recommendations.

• Machine must be grounded per any national, local or other applicable electrical regulations.
• The power switch is to be in the OFF position when installing work cable and electrode cable and when connecting other equipment.

Unpacking the Machine
Carefully remove the machine from the packaging, we recommend you retain the packaging until the machine has been fully installed and tested incase it has been damaged in transit and has to be returned to the reseller.

Location
Be sure to locate the welder according to the following guidelines:

• In areas, free from moisture and dust.
• Ambient temperature between 0-400C.
• In areas free from oil, steam and corrosive gases.
• In areas not subjected to abnormal vibration or shock.
• In areas not exposed to direct sunlight or rain.
• Place at a distance of 12” (300 mm) or more from walls or similar that could restrict natural airflow for cooling.

Input and grounding connection
WARNING
Before starting the installation, check that your power supply is adequate for the voltage, amperage, phase, and frequency specified on the Machine nameplate.
Operate the welding power source from a single-phase 50/60 Hz, AC power supply. The input voltage must match one of the electrical input voltages shown on the input data label on the unit nameplate. The XTS163 machine should only be used on 230v supply. Refer to the specifications table for voltage tolerances. The XTS 163 DV will automatically switch between 110 or 230V input without adjustment of the machine.
Have a qualified electrician connect the input plug. For long runs over 30m , larger copper wires should be used. The green/yellow wire in the input cable connects to the frame of the machine. This ensures proper grounding of the machine when the machine plug is inserted into the receptacle.

Output Polarity Connections

Electrode polarity
MMA electrodes are generally connected to the ‘+’ terminal and the work return lead to the ‘-‘terminal
But if in doubt consult the electrode manufacturer’s literature.
IF TIG welding the torch should always be connected to the ‘-’ terminal.

MMA Welding Guide
Effects of MMA welding various materials
High tensile and alloy steels
The two most prominent effects of welding these steels are the formation of a hardened zone in the weld area, and, if suitable precautions are not taken, the occurrence in this zone of under-bead cracks. Hardened zone and under-bead cracks in the weld area may be reduced by using the correct electrodes, preheating, using higher current settings, using larger electrodes sizes, short runs for larger electrode deposits or tempering in a furnace.

Manganese steels
The effect on manganese steel of slow cooling from high temperatures is embrittlement. For this reason it is absolutely essential to keep manganese steel cool during welding by quenching after each weld or skip welding to distribute the heat.

Cast iron
Most types of cast iron, except white iron, are weldable. White iron, because of its extreme brittleness, generally cracks when attempts are made to weld it. Trouble may also be experienced when welding white-heart malleable, due to the porosity caused by gas held in this type of iron.

Copper and alloys
The most important factor is the high rate of heat conductivity of copper, making preheating of heavy sections necessary to give proper fusion of weld and base metal.

Types of electrodes
Arc welding electrodes are classified into a number of groups depending on their applications. There are a great number of electrodes used for specialized industrial purposes which are not of particular interest for everyday general work. These include some low hydrogen types for high tensile steel, cellulose types for welding large diameter pipes, etc. The range of electrodes dealt with in this publication will cover the vast majority of applications likely to be encountered; all are easy to use and will all work on even the most basic of welding machines.
Metals being joined & electrode comments

Mild steel
6013 ideal electrodes for all general purpose work. Features include outstanding operator appeal, easy arc starting and low spatter.

Cast iron
99% nickel suitable for joining all cast irons except white cast iron

Stainless steel
316l-16 high corrosion resistance. Ideal for dairy work, etc. On stainless steels.

Basic TIG Welding guide
Tig welding cable connection
Connect the TIG torch to the – terminal and the work return lead to the + terminal for direct current straight polarity. Direct current straight polarity is the most widely used polarity for DC TIG welding. It allows limited wear of the electrode since 70% of the heat is concentrated at the work piece. Connect the gas hose on the TIG torch to the gas outlet on the gas regulator. Move the selector switch on the front panel of the machine to the LIFT-TIG position.

Torch starting in LIFT-TIG mode
Ensure the gas supply is switched on and gas is flowing from the front of the torch nozzle. Briefly contact the tip of the tungsten electrode down onto the work piece with the torch at around 700 from vertical, lift the torch up from the work piece to draw out an arc. To prevent melting of the end of the tungsten, do so in a smooth rapid movement.
