SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

WARNING

ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.

•Only qualified personnel should perform this installation.

•Only personnel that have read and under- stood the POWER MIG 200 Operating Manual should install and operate this equipment.

•Machine must be grounded per any nation- al, local or other applicable electrical codes.

•The POWER MIG power switch is to be in the OFF position when installing work cable and gun and when connecting other equipment.

UNCRATING THE POWER MIG 200

Cut banding and lift off cardboard carton. Cut banding holding the machine to the skid. Remove foam and corrugated packing material. Untape accessories from Gas Bottle Platform. Unscrew the two wood screws (at the Gas Bottle Platform) holding the machine to the skid. Roll the machine off the skid assembly.

LOCATION

Locate the welder in a dry location where there is free circulation of clean air into the louvers in the back and out the front. A location that minimizes the amount of smoke and dirt drawn into the rear louvers reduces the chance of dirt accumulation that can block air pas- sages and cause overheating.

INPUT POWER, GROUNDING AND CONNECTION DIAGRAMS

WARNING

ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.

•Do not touch electrically live parts such as output terminals or internal wiring.

•All input power must be electrically dis- connected before proceeding.

1.Before starting the installation, check with the local power company if there is any question about whether your power supply is adequate for the volt- age, amperes, phase, and frequency specified on the welder nameplate. Also be sure the planned installation will meet the U.S. National Electrical Code and local code requirements. This welder may be operated from a single phase line or from one phase of a two or three phase line.

2.Models that have multiple input voltages specified on the nameplate (e.g. 208/230) are shipped con- nected for the highest voltage. If the welder is to be operated on lower voltage, it must be reconnected according to the instructions in Figure A.1 for dual voltage machines and Figure A.2 for triple voltage machines.

WARNING

Make certain that the input power is electrically disconnected before removing the screw on the reconnect panel access cover.

IM693 specifications

Lincoln Electric IM693 is a cutting-edge multiprocess welding machine designed to cater to the needs of both industrial and commercial applications. Renowned for its versatility, this machine can perform MIG, TIG, and stick welding, making it an ideal choice for fabricators and manufacturers looking for a single solution for varied welding processes.

One of the standout features of the IM693 is its advanced inverter technology. This technology significantly enhances the efficiency of the welding process by reducing energy consumption while maximizing output. The inverter design allows for a more compact and lightweight unit compared to traditional transformers, making it easier to transport and maneuver in work environments.

The machine’s user-friendly interface is another compelling characteristic. It is equipped with a large, intuitive digital display that allows operators to quickly adjust settings for specific applications. The system is designed to provide real-time feedback on welding parameters, ensuring consistent and high-quality welds. This feature is particularly beneficial for both novice and experienced welders, facilitating a smoother workflow.

Additionally, Lincoln Electric IM693 incorporates advanced arc control technologies such as Soft Start and Auto Set features. Soft Start allows for a gradual ramp-up of the welding current, which minimizes spatter and leads to cleaner welds. The Auto Set feature intelligently adjusts the welder's settings based on the material type and thickness, taking the guesswork out of the welding process and improving overall efficiency.

The IM693 supports a wide range of input voltages, allowing for operation in various regions without the need for additional equipment. This flexibility makes it suitable for numerous applications, ranging from automotive repair to heavy machinery fabrication.

Safety is paramount in industrial settings, and the Lincoln Electric IM693 does not compromise on this front. It is equipped with several safety features such as thermal overload protection, which prevents machine damage from overheating, and a sturdy casing that protects vital components from dust and debris.

In summary, Lincoln Electric IM693 is a robust, versatile, and technologically advanced welding machine that meets the demands of modern welding applications. Its combination of inverter technology, user-friendly features, and safety measures makes it an excellent choice for professionals looking to achieve high-quality results with maximum efficiency.
