During operation, keep everybody, especially children, away.
| | |---| | |
############### 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. In semiautomatic or automatic wire welding, the wire, wire reel, drive roll housing, and all metal parts touching the welding wire are electrically live. Incorrectly installed or improperly grounded equipment is a hazard.
Do not touch live electrical parts. Wear dry, hole-free 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 or ground.
Do not use AC output in damp areas, if movement is confined, or if there is a danger of falling. Use AC output ONLY if required for the welding process. If AC output is required, use remote output control if present on unit.
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 workpiece or ground. For these conditions, use the following equipment in order presented: 1) a semiautomatic DC constant voltage (wire) welder, 2) a DC manual (stick) welder, or 3) an AC welder with reduced open-circuit voltage. In most situations, use of a DC, constant voltage wire welder is recommended. And, do not work alone!
Disconnect input power or stop engine before installing or servicing this equipment. Lockout/tagout input power according to OSHA 29 CFR 1910.147 (see Safety Standards).
Properly install and ground this equipment according to its Owner’s Manual and national, state, and local codes.
Always verify the supply ground − check and be sure that input power cord ground wire is properly connected to ground terminal in
disconnect box or that cord plug is connected to a properly grounded receptacle outlet. When making input connections, attach proper grounding conductor first − double-check connections. Keep cords dry, free of oil and grease, and protected from hot metal and sparks. Frequently inspect input power cord for damage or bare wiring − replace cord immediately if damaged − bare wiring can kill. Turn off all equipment when not in use. Do not use worn, damaged, undersized, or poorly spliced cables. Do not drape cables over your body. If earth grounding of the workpiece 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.
Do not touch electrode holders connected to two welding machines at the same time since double open-circuit voltage will be present.
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 workpiece or worktable as near the weld as practical. Insulate work clamp when not connected to workpiece to prevent contact with any metal object. Do not connect more than one electrode or work cable to any single weld output terminal.
############### SIGNIFICANT DC VOLTAGE exists in inverter welding power sources AFTER removal of inputpower.
Turn Off inverter, disconnect input power, and discharge input capacitors according to instructions in Maintenance Section before touching any parts.
| | |---|
############### HOT PARTS can burn.
Do not touch hot parts bare handed. Allow cooling period before working on equipment.
To handle hot parts, use proper tools and/or wear heavy, insulated welding gloves and clothing to prevent burns.
| | |---|
################## FUMES AND GASES can be hazardous.
Welding produces fumes and gases. Breathing these fumes and gases can be hazardous to your health.
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 air-supplied respirator.
Read and understand the Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDSs) and the manufacturer’s instructions for metals, consumables, coatings, cleaners, and degreasers.
Work in a confined space only if it is well ventilated, or while wearing an air-supplied respirator. Always have a trained watchperson 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 degreasing, cleaning, or spraying operations. The heat and rays of the arc can react with vapors 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 from arc rays and sparks when welding or watching (see ANSI Z49.1 and Z87.1 listed in Safety Standards).
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 can cause fire or explosion.
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 workpiece, 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.
Remove all flammables within 35 ft (10.7 m) 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 AWS F4.1 (see Safety Standards).
Do not weld where the atmosphere may contain flammable dust, gas, or liquid vapors (such as gasoline).
Connect work cable to the work as close to the welding area as practical to prevent welding current from traveling long, possibly unknown paths and causing electric shock, sparks, and fire hazards.
Do not use welder to thaw frozen pipes. Remove stick electrode from holder or cut off welding wire at contact tip when not in use.
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.
After completion of work, inspect area to ensure it is free of sparks, glowing embers, and flames.
Use only correct fuses or circuit breakers. Do not oversize or bypass them.
Follow requirements in OSHA 1910.252 (a) (2) (iv) and NFPA 51B for hot work and have a fire watcher and extinguisher nearby.
################## FLYING METAL or DIRT 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.
############### BUILDUP 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.
##################### ELECTRIC AND MAGNETIC FIELDS (EMF) can affect ImplantedMedical Devices.
Wearers of Pacemakers and other Implanted Medical Devices should keep away.
Implanted Medical Device wearers should consult their doctor and the device manufacturer before going near arc welding, spot welding, gouging, plasma arc cutting, or induction heating operations.
| | |---|
############### NOISE can damage hearing.
Noise from some processes or equipment can damage hearing.
Wear approved ear protection if noise level is high.
|| |---|
############### CYLINDERS can explode if damaged.
Shielding gas cylinders contain gas under high pressure. If damaged, a cylinder can explode. Since gas cylinders are normally part of the welding process, be sure to treat them carefully.
Protect compressed gas cylinders from excessive heat, mechanical shocks, physical damage, slag, open flames, sparks, and arcs. Install cylinders in an upright position by securing to a stationary support or cylinder rack to prevent falling or tipping. Keep cylinders away from any welding or other electrical circuits. Never drape a welding torch over a gas cylinder. Never allow a welding electrode to touch any cylinder. Never weld on a pressurized cylinder − explosion will result.
Use only correct shielding gas cylinders, regulators, hoses, and fittings designed for the specific application; maintain them and associated parts in good condition.
Turn face away from valve outlet when opening cylinder valve. Keep protective cap in place over valve except when cylinder is in use or connected for use. Use the right equipment, correct procedures, and sufficient number of persons to lift and move cylinders.
Read and follow instructions on compressed gas cylinders, associated equipment, and Compressed Gas Association (CGA) publication P-1 listed in Safety Standards.
############ 1-3. Additional Symbols For Installation, Operation, And Maintenance
############### FIRE OR EXPLOSION hazard.
Do not install or place unit on, over, or near combustible surfaces. Do not install unit near flammables.
Do not overload building wiring − be sure power supply system is properly sized, rated, and protected to handle this unit.
############### FALLING EQUIPMENT can injure.
Use lifting eye to lift unit only, NOT running gear, gas cylinders, or any other accessories. Use equipment of adequate capacity to lift and support unit.
If using lift forks to move unit, be sure forks are long enough to extend beyond opposite side of unit.

Stick (SMAW) - This method can be used with either AC or DC Stick welding. Make connections according to Section 4-22.| |---|
############ 5-8. Lift-Arc And HF TIG Start Procedures
|Lift-Arc Start
When Lift-Arc button light is On, start arc as follows:
1 TIG Electrode
2 Workpiece
Touch tungsten electrode to workpiece at weld start point, enable output and shielding gas with torch trigger, foot control, or hand control. Hold electrode to workpiece for 1-2 seconds, and slowly lift electrode. Arc is formed when electrode is lifted.
Normal open-circuit voltage is not present before tungsten electrode touches workpiece; only a low sensing voltage is present between electrode and workpiece. The solid-state output contactor does not energize until after electrode is touching workpiece. This allows a properly prepared electrode (see Section 11-2) to touch workpiece without overheating, sticking, or getting contaminated.
Application:
Lift-Arc is used for the DCEN or AC GTAW process when HF Start method is not permitted, or to replace the scratch method.
HF Start
When HF Start button light is On, start arc as follows:
High frequency turns on to start arc when output is enabled. High frequency turns off when arc is started, and turns on whenever arc is broken to help restart arc.
Application:
HF start is used for the DCEN GTAW, or the AC GTAW process when a non-contact arc starting method is required.

2 Encoder Control (Set Value)
3 Ammeter (Displays Value) See Section 5-15 for all Pulser parameter ranges.
PPS - Pulse frequency or pulses per second, is the number of pulse cycles per second. Pulse frequency helps reduce heat input, part warpage, and helps weld bead cosmetics. The higher the PPS setting, the smoother the ripple effect, the narrower the weld bead, and the more cooling you get. By setting PPS on the lower end, the pulse is slower, and the weld bead wider. This slow pulsing helps agitate the weld puddle to help release gas trapped in the weldment, and help reduce porosity (very useful in aluminum welding). Some beginners use a slower pulse rate (2-4 pps) to help them with their timing on adding filler material. An experienced welder may have the PPS setting much higher, depending on their personal preferences, and on what they are trying to accomplish.
PEAK t - (PEAK t) is the percentage of time in each cycle, spent at peak amperage (main amperage). Peak amperage is set with the Amperage control (see Section 5-3). If one pulse per second is being used, and peak time is set at 50%, one-half second is spent at peak amperage, and the other 50%, or one-half second, is spent at the background amperage. Increasing peak time increases time spent at peak amperage, which increases heat input into the part. A good starting point for peak time is about 50-60%. To find a good ratio, you will have to experiment a bit, but the idea is to decrease heat input into the part, and increase the cosmetics of the weld.
BKGND A - (Background amps) is set as a percentage of the peak amps setting. If peak amps is set at 200, and background amps at 50%, your background amps is 100 amps when the machine pulses on the background side of the cycle. The lower background amperage helps reduce heat input. Increasing or decreasing background amps increases or decreases the overall average amperage, which helps determine how fluid your puddle is on the background side of the pulse cycle. Overall, you want your puddle to shrink to about one-half the size, but still remain fluid. To start with, set background amps at about 20-30% for stainless/carbon steel, or at about 35-50% for aluminum alloys.
4 Pulsed Output Waveforms
Example shows affect changing the Peak Time control has on the pulsed output waveform.
Application:
Pulsing refers to the alternating raising and lowering of the weld output at a specific rate. The raised portions of the weld output are controlled in width, height, and frequency, forming pulses of weld output. These pulses and the lower amperage level between them (called the background amperage) alternately heat and cool the molten weld puddle. The combined effect gives the operator better control of penetration, bead width, crowning, undercutting, and heat input. Controls can be adjusted while welding.
Pulsing can also be used for filler material addition technique training.

PREFLOW[PRE] -If the TIG HF process is active (see Section 5-7) and Preflow is shown on the control panel, use control to set length of time gas flows before arc initiation.
Application: Preflow is used to purge the weld area and aids in arc starts.
POST FLOW [POST]- If the TIG process is active (see Section 5-7), use control to set length of time gas flows after welding stops.
AUTO POST FLOW - Creates a post flow time scaled at 1 second per 10 amps of the peak weld amperage for a given weld cycle. Auto post flow is limited to a 8 second minimum, or to the maximum preset post flow time.
Application:
Postflow is required to cool tungsten and weld, and to prevent contamination of tungsten and weld. Increase postflow time if tungsten or weld are dark in appearance.
DIG - If Stick process is active (see Section 5-7), use control to set amount of DIG. When set at 0, short-circuit amperage at low arc voltage is the same as normal welding amperage.
When setting is increased, short-circuit amperage at low arc voltage increases.
Application:
Control helps arc starting or making vertical or overhead welds by increasing amperage at low arc voltage, and reduces electrode sticking while welding.
PURGE [PURG] - To activate the gas valve and start the purge function, push and hold the Gas/DIG switch pad for the desired amount of time. To set from 1 to 50 seconds of purge time, hold the Gas/ DIG switch pad while turning the encoder control. Default is 0.
While Purge is active, [PURG] is shown in the left display, and purge time is shown in the right display.
Pressing any switch pad will end the purge display, but gas will continue to flow until the preset time has timed out.
Application: Purge is used to clear the gas lines.

1 AC Waveshape Control
Press switch pad until desired function LED is illuminated.
2 Encoder Control (Set Value)
3 Ammeter (Displays Value)
See Section 5-15 for all AC Waveshape parameter ranges.
EN Amperage [EN] - Use with AC TIG only to select electrode negative amperage value.
EP Amperage [EP] - Use with AC TIG only to select electrode positive amperage value. Note: See Section 6-1 to set same Amplitude control [ENEP].
EN Amperage and EP Amperage allow the operator the ability to control the amount of amperage in the negative and positive half cycles independently. A 1.5 to 1 ratio of EN to EP is a good starting point. This provides cleaning action, but directs more energy into the workpiece and provides faster travel speeds and deeper penetration.
4 Amperage Control
Average Amperage Control: Setting EN Amperage, EP Amperage, Balance, and Frequency values creates an average amperage. The operator can change the average amperage value while maintaining the same EN amperage to EP amperage ratio at the existing balance and frequency. To change the average amperage value, press the Amperage switch pad and turn the Encoder control. The changing average value is displayed on the ammeter. Example: If EN Amperage is 300, EP Amperage is 150, Balance is 60%, and Frequency is 120, the average amperage is 240 amps. If you press the Amperage switch pad and turn the Encoder control until 480 amps is displayed, the EN amperage is now 600 and EP amperage is now 300. The balance remains 60%, and the frequency is still 120, and the 2 to 1 EN amperage to EP amperage is maintained.
Balance[BAL] - AC Balance control is enabled only in AC TIG to set percentage of time polarity is electrode negative. Set control at about 75%, and fine tune from there.
5 Voltmeter
Displays word abbreviations of selected parameters.
Application:
When welding on oxide forming materials such as aluminum or magnesium, excess cleaning is not necessary. To produce a good weld, only 0.10 in (2.5mm) of etched zone along the weld toes is required.
Use AC Balance to control the etch zone width. Joint configuration, set-up, process variables, and oxide thickness may affect setting.
AC Frequency [FREQ] - Use control to set AC frequency (cycles per second).
Application:
AC Frequency controls arc width and directional control. As AC frequency decreases, the arc becomes wider and less focused, limiting directional control. As AC frequency increases, the arc becomes narrower and more focused, increasing directional control. Travel speed can increase as AC frequency increases.

=3T
Current (A)
Remote Trigger Operation
3T requires a specific type of remote control with two independent momentarycontact switches. One will be designated initial switch, and it must be connected between Remote 14 receptacle pins A and B. The second will be designated as the final switch, and it must be connected between Remote 14 receptacle pins D and E.
Initial slope rate is the rate of amperage change determined by the initial amperage, initial slope time, and main amperage.
Final slope rate is the rate of amperage change determined by the main amperage, final slope time, and final amperage.
###################### Operation:
If an initial switch closure is not made again before preflow time ends, gas flow stops, the timer resets, and an initial switch press and release is necessary to start the weld sequence again.
C. When main amperage level is reached,
initial switch can be released.
###################### Application:
With the use of two remote switches instead of potentiometers, 3T gives the operator the ability to infinitely increase, decrease, or pause and hold amperage within the range determined by the initial, main, and final amperages.
############### D. 4T Specific Trigger Method

2 Encoder Control To select 4T, turn Encoder control. Torch trigger operation is as shown.
4T allows the operator to toggle between weld current and final current.
When a remote switch is connected to the welding power source, use the remote switch to control the weld cycle. Amperage is controlled by the welding power source.
Application:
Use 4T trigger method when the functions of a remote current control are desired, but only a remote on/off control is available.

############ 6-4. AC Waveshape Selection (Dynasty Models Only)
|1 Memory Switch Pad
Each memory location can select any of four wave shapes.
2 Encoder
Use the Encoder, at any of the nine memory locations, to select between advanced squarewave [ADVS], soft squarewave [SOFT] (default), sine wave [Sine], or
triangle wave [TRI].
During normal operation, when EN or EP Amperage is selected, the left parameter screen will display the active waveshape [ADVS],, [Soft], [Sine], or [TRI] and the independent amplitude selection (see Section 6-5) as a reminder.
Application: Use advance squarewave when a more focused arc is required for better directional control. Use soft squarewave when a softer arc with a more fluid puddle is desired. Use sine wave to simulate a conventional power source. Use triangular waveshape when the effects of peak amperage with reduced overall heat input is required to help control distortion on thin materials.

Application: For most Stick applications, use Stick Stuck Check off. With Stick Stuck Check on and the welding electrode (rod) stuck, output is turned off in an attempt to save the rod for reuse. This allows the operator time to un-stick the rod, or disconnect the rod holder from the rod without arc occurring. Turn Stick Stuck Check on
when this function is desired.
Some applications may require Stick Stuck Check to be turned off. For example: Large stick electrodes operating at high amperages would require Stick Stuck Check to be turned off.

! Weld current starts when electrode touches workpiece.
! Weld current can damage electronic parts in vehicles. Disconnect both battery cables before welding on a vehicle. Place work clamp as close to the weld as possible.
Always wear appropriate personal protective clothing.
Make sure workpiece is clean before welding.
A small diameter electrode requires less current than a large one. Follow electrode manufacturer’s instructions when setting weld amperage (see Section 14-2).
Arc length is the distance from the electrode to the workpiece. A short arc with correct amperage will give a sharp, crackling sound.
Use a chipping hammer and wire brush to remove slag. Remove slag and check weld bead before making another weld pass.

Effective January 1, 2010 (Equipment with a serial number preface of MA or newer)
This limited warranty supersedes all previous Miller warranties and is exclusive with no other guarantees or warranties expressed or implied.
LIMITED WARRANTY − Subject to the terms and conditions below, Miller Electric Mfg. Co., Appleton, Wisconsin, warrants to its original retail purchaser that new Miller equipment sold after the effective date of this limited warranty is free of defects in material and workmanship at the time it is shipped by Miller. THIS WARRANTY IS EXPRESSLY IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING THE WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS.
Within the warranty periods listed below, Miller will repair or replace any warranted parts or components that fail due to such defects in material or workmanship. Miller must be notified in writing within thirty (30) days of such defect or failure, at which time Miller will provide instructions on the warranty claim procedures to be followed.
Miller’s True Blue Limited Warranty shall not apply to:
Miller shall honor warranty claims on warranted equipment listed below in the event of such a failure within the warranty time periods. All warranty time periods start on the delivery date of the equipment to the original end-user purchaser, and not to exceed one year after the equipment is shipped to a North American distributor or eighteen months after the equipment is shipped to an International distributor.
MILLER PRODUCTS ARE INTENDED FOR PURCHASE AND USE BY COMMERCIAL/INDUSTRIAL USERS AND PERSONS TRAINED AND EXPERIENCED IN THE USE AND MAINTENANCE OF WELDING EQUIPMENT.
In the event of a warranty claim covered by this warranty, the exclusive remedies shall be, at Miller’s option: (1) repair; or (2) replacement; or, where authorized in writing by Miller in appropriate cases, (3) the reasonable cost of repair or replacement at an authorized Miller service station; or (4) payment of or credit for the purchase price (less reasonable depreciation based upon actual use) upon return of the goods at customer’s risk and expense. Miller’s option of repair or replacement will be F.O.B., Factory at Appleton, Wisconsin, or F.O.B. at a Miller authorized service facility as determined by Miller. Therefore no compensation or reimbursement for transportation costs of any kind will be allowed.
TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE REMEDIES PROVIDED HEREIN ARE THE SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDIES. IN NO EVENT SHALL MILLER BE LIABLE FOR DIRECT, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING LOSS OF PROFIT), WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY.
ANY EXPRESS WARRANTY NOT PROVIDED HEREIN AND ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY, GUARANTY OR REPRESENTATION AS TO PERFORMANCE, AND ANY REMEDY FOR BREACH OF CONTRACT TORT OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY WHICH, BUT FOR THIS PROVISION, MIGHT ARISE BY IMPLICATION, OPERATION OF LAW, CUSTOM OF TRADE OR COURSE OF DEALING, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR PARTICULAR PURPOSE, WITH RESPECT TO ANY AND ALL EQUIPMENT FURNISHED BY MILLER IS EXCLUDED AND DISCLAIMED BY MILLER.
Some states in the U.S.A. do not allow limitations of how long an implied warranty lasts, or the exclusion of incidental, indirect, special or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you. This warranty provides specific legal rights, and other rights may be available, but may vary from state to state.
In Canada, legislation in some provinces provides for certain additional warranties or remedies other than as stated herein, and to the extent that they may not be waived, the limitations and exclusions set out above may not apply. This Limited Warranty provides specific legal rights, and other rights may be available, but may vary from province to province.
