Non-Synergic Weld Modes (Mode 5)

Voltage is adjustable at the power source. The right control knob on the power source will adjust the voltage that is displayed in the meter directly above it.

The left Display (WFS / AMPS) on the POWER MIG 300 will have 4 dashes (----) to indicate that the left control knob on the power source is inactive. Wire Feed Speed is set at the Spool Gun.

The following procedure settings for Aluminum 4043 can be used as initial settings for making test welds to determine final settings:

Wire Dia.

WFS Setting

4. Synergic Weld Modes

The POWER MIG 300 is designed to enable synergic weld modes and synergic pulse processes with the spool gun. The actual wire feed speed (WFS) of the spool gun must be measured and manually set on the POWER MIG 300 as a work point for the POWER MIG 300 (SPD).

In synergic modes when the spool gun trigger is pulled, an adjustable value for the SPD work point is displayed in the left meter. The letters SPD are displayed in the right meter.

The left control knob adjusts the SPD value. The right control knob is inactive.

Measure the actual WFS, in inches per minute, at the spool gun and set the SPD at the POWER MIG 300 to match this value. WFS can be measured by pulling the trigger of the spool gun and feeding wire for 6 seconds. Measure the length of wire (in inches) that was fed and multiply by 10.

The POWER MIG 300 is now configured and ready to weld in the synergic mode.

Adjustment of the SPD value from the set value has the affect of adjusting trim or arc length.

To increase the arc length; increase the SPD value at the POWER MIG 300 to a value higher than the actual WFS.

Remember; do not change the WFS at the spool gun.

To decrease the arc length; decrease the SPD value at the POWER MIG 300 to a value lower than the actual WFS.

Remember: The dialed in SPD value at the POWER MIG 300 does not control the WFS at the spool gun. Rather, it is adjusting the POWER MIG 300 synergic work point. Therefore, adjusting the SPD value will not change your actual WFS at the spool gun. WFS can only be changed at the spool gun.

WARNING

Refer to the Owner’s Manual of the Torch for Amperage and Duty Cycle rating information. The torch rating may not match the rating of the power source.

MAKING A WELD WITH THE PRINCE XL OR COBRA GOLD TORCH INSTALLED

Set the idle roll pressure on the wire drive between an indicator reading of 0-2. A recommended start point is 1.5.

Set the Gun Selection toggle switch located inside the wire drive compartment directly above the push- pull control cable connector to "PUSH-PULL GUN."

Depending on the weld mode, set the Voltage or Trim at the POWER MIG 300 using the right control knob located on the upper case front panel.

The Wire Feed Speed (WFS) is set using the control knob on the Torch. The left control knob on the POWER MIG 300 is inactive. The actual WFS being set at the torch is displayed on the POWER MIG 300.

All weld parameters normally available for the active weld mode are available during push-pull operation. Refer to the Operation Section of this manual.
