Duty cycle
The duty cycle refers to the time as a percentage of a ten--minute period that you can weld at a cer-
tain load without overloading.
Enclosure class
The IP code indicates the enclosure class, i. e. the degree of protection against penetration by solid
objects or water. Equipment marked IP23 is designed for indoor and outdoor use.
Application class
The symbol indicates that the power source is designed for use in areas with increased
electrical hazard.
5 INSTALLATION
The installation must be executed by a professional.
Note!
Connect the power source to the electricity mains with a network impedance of 0.268
Ω
or lower. If the
network impedance is higher, there is a risk of flicker in the illuminators.
WARNING!
This product is intended for industrial use. In a domestic environment this product may cause radio
interference. It is the user’s responsibility to take adequate precautions.
The power supply should be lifted by means of its lifting
eye. The handle is only intended for pulling it along the
ground.
Lifting instructions
5.1 Placing
Position the welding power source so that its cooling air inlets and outlets are not
obstructed.

5.4.1 Setup: Input Voltage Reconnect Diagrams
The Origo
TM
Mig C420 PRO is factory connected for 575Vac input. To re--connect for
an alternate input voltage, refer to the directions and diagrams below.
1. Remove the top panel (9) screws. (4) top, (3) left side, (2) right side. Lift the rear
of the top panel until the top just clears the lifting lugs. Pull toward the rear of the
machine. The top will slide out from the grooves in the front handle. Remove the
right side panel by removing the remaining (5) screws.
2. Locate control transformer TC--1 in the upper tray. View from the rear of the
machine and re--position lead #48 to the appropriate terminal.
2=(208)230Vac, 3=400Vac, 4=460Vac, 5=500Vac, 6=575Vac. See diagrams
below. Lead #47 must always be on terminal #1.
3. Reposition wire jumpers and leads #200. #210, and #220 on the main terminal
panel to the appropriate positions. When re--connecting for 230Vac input, extra
jumpers are located in a plastic bag secured to the wiring harness in the upper
tray, just above the terminal panel. Install as shown.
4. Confirm and verify all lead and jumper positions are correct for the desired input
voltage. Replace the right side panel and then top cover. Tighten all screws.

6 OPERATION
General safety regulations for the handling of the equipment can be found on
page 3. Read through before you start using the equipment!
WARNING!
Rotating parts can cause injury, take great care.
To prevent the reel sliding off the hub: Lock the reel in place by turning
the red knob as shown on the warning label attached next to the hub.
WARNING!
WARNING -- TIPPING RISK!
There is a risk of tipping while transportation and operation, if the welding machine leans
more than 10
o
. In that case appropriate securing has to be provided !

6.3 Wire feed pressure
Start by making sure that the wire moves smoothly through the wire guide. Then
set the pressure of the wire feeder’s pressure rollers. It is important that the
pressure is not too great.
Fig 1 Fig 2
To check that the feed pressure is set correctly, you can feed out the wire against
an insolated object, e.g. a piece of wood.
When you hold the gun approx. 5 mm from the piece of wood (fig. 1) the feed
rollers should slip.
If you hold the gun approx. 50 mm from the piece of wood, the wire should be
fed out and bend (fig. 2).
6.4 Replacing and inserting wire
S Open the side panel.
S Disconnect the pressure sensor by folding it backwards, the pressure rollers
slide up.
S Straighten out the new wire 10--20 cm. File away burrs and sharp edges from the
end of the wire before inserting it into the wire feed unit.
S Make sure that the wire goes properly into the feed roller track and into the outlet
nozzle and the wire guide.
S Secure the pressure sensor.
S Close the side panel.

6.5 Start
When machine is switched on by the mains switch [1], indicating lamps [4,5] are
checked for 2 seconds. Normally, if the machine is not overheated, it should start to
work in idle mode, which is indicated by blinking of the supply--ON lamp [4]. The fan
is stopped and starts from the first start of welding.
6.6 Overheating protection
The power source has 2--step control of fan speed and overheating protection.
If temperature crosses the threshold point, the fan starts to run with increased
speed. If the internal temperature becomes too high, the welding is interrupted and
disabled. This state is indicated by permanent lighting of the orange indicating lamp
on the front of the unit. It resets automatically when the temperature falls down.
6.7 Idle mode
The machine can run in the idle mode. The fan is switched off 5 min after the end of
the last welding, or after 5 min of run with decreased speed without welding, then
the power supply lamp [4] on the front panel is blinking.
6.8 Functions explanation
The Origo
TM
Mig C420 PRO is equipped with standard control unit. Welder can
manually select and adjust all welding parameters.
S Wire speed 75 -- 1000 ipm (1,9 -- 25m/min) is set with knob [12].
S The stroke control (2/4 stroke) is selected with switch [13].
S Creep start i.e. start with 50% wire speed is toggled ON/OFF with switch [14].
S Burn back time is set with knob (0 -- 0,5 sec) [15].
Digital instrument displays continously the actual welding current and voltage, when
welding process is stopped -- the last values are memorised (HOLD -- function).

7 MAINTENANCE
Regular maintenance is important for safe, reliable operation.
Maintenance must be executed by a professional.
Only those persons who have appropriate electrical knowledge (authorised
personnel) may remove the safety plates.
Note!
All guarantee undertakings from the supplier cease to apply if the customer himself
attempts any work in the product during the guarantee period in order to rectify any
faults.
7.1 Inspection and cleaning
Check regularly that the power source is free from dirt.
The power source should be regularly blown clean using dry compressed air at reduced
pressure. More frequently in dirty environments.
Otherwise the air inlet/outlet may become blocked and cause overheating. To avoid
this you can use an airfilter.
The airfilter is an accessory. Ordering number can be found on page 26.
Welding gun
S Cleaning and replacement of the welding gun’s wear parts should take place at
regular intervals in order to achieve trouble--free wire feed. Blow the wire guide
clean regularly and clean the contact tip.

The brake hub
The hub is adjusted when delivered, if
readjustment is required, follow the instructions
below. Adjust the brake hub so that wire is slightly
slack when wire feed stops.
S Adjusting the braking torque:
S Turn the red handle to the locked position.
S Insert a screwdriver into the springs in the hub.
Turn the springs clockwise to reduce the braking torque
Turn the springs anticlockwise to increase the braking torque. NB: Turn both
springs through the same amount.
8 FAULT TRACING
Try these recommended checks and inspections before sending for an authorised service technican.
Type of fault Actions
No arc S Check that the mains power supply switch is turned on.
S Check that the welding current supply and return cables are
correctly connected.
S Check that correct current value is set.
Welding current is interrupted
during welding
S Check whether the thermal overload trip has operated
(indicated by the orange lamp on the front).
S Check the main power supply fuses.
Thermal overload trips
operate frequently
S Check to see whether the air filters are clogged.
S Make sure that you are not exceeding the rated data for the
power source (i.e. that the unit is not being overloaded).
Poor welding performance S Check that the welding current supply and return cables are
correctly connected.
S Check that the correct current value is set.
S Check that the correct welding wires are being used.
S Check the main power supply fuses.
S Check the wire feed unit -- if proper rolls are applied and
properly set the pressure of the wire feeder’s pressure rollers
