5. Asennus
Follow these steps to set up your DEKO 140A Inverter Welder:
- Valmistele työalue: Ensure the welding area is clean, dry, and well-ventilated. Remove all flammable materials.
- Liitä maadoitusliitin Clamp: Kiinnitä maaamp cable to the negative terminal (-) on the welder. Securely attach the ground clamp to the workpiece or a sturdy metal workbench that is electrically connected to the workpiece. Ensure good electrical contact.
- Kytke elektrodinpidin: Attach the electrode holder cable to the positive terminal (+) on the welder. Insert the welding electrode into the electrode holder.
- Liitä virta: Plug the power cable into a suitable 220V power outlet. Ensure the power switch on the welder is in the OFF position before plugging it in.
- Turn On the Welder: Flip the power switch to the ON position. The Power Light should illuminate, and the digital display will show the current setting.

6. Käyttöohjeet
6.1. Basic Welding Procedure
- Käytä suojavarusteita: Always wear a welding helmet, gloves, and appropriate protective clothing.
- Valmistele työkappale: Clean the welding area on the workpiece to remove rust, paint, or grease.
- Tee kaari: Gently tap or scratch the electrode against the workpiece to initiate the arc. The Hot Start feature assists in easier arc ignition.
- Maintain Arc Length: Keep a consistent arc length, typically equal to the electrode's diameter.
- Move the Electrode: Move the electrode steadily along the joint, maintaining a consistent travel speed and angle. The Arc Force feature helps maintain a stable arc.
- Estä tarttuminen: If the electrode sticks, the Anti-Stick function will reduce the current to help free it.
- Viimeistelyhitsaus: Lift the electrode away from the workpiece to break the arc. Allow the weld to cool before cleaning.
6.2. Tärkeimmät ominaisuudet
- Kuuma alku: Provides an initial surge of current to make arc striking easier, especially with difficult-to-start electrodes.

- Tarttumaton: Automatically reduces the welding current if the electrode sticks to the workpiece, preventing overheating and making it easier to detach the electrode.
- Arc Force: Increases the current when the arc length becomes too short, preventing the arc from extinguishing and ensuring a stable weld.
