WARNING
READ AND UNDERSTAND THE INSTRUCTION MANUAL BEFORE INSTALLING OR OPERATING.
ARC WELDING AND CUTTING CAN BE INJURIOUS TO YOURSELF AND OTHERS. TAKE PRECAU-
TIONS WHEN WELDING. ASK FOR YOUR EMPLOYER’S SAFETY PRACTICES WHICH SHOULD BE
BASED ON MANUFACTURERS’ HAZARD DATA.
ELECTRIC SHOCK -- Can kill
S Install and earth the welding unit in accordance with applicable standards.
S Do not touch live electrical parts or electrodes with bare skin, wet gloves or wet clothing.
S Insulate yourself from earth and the workpiece.
S Ensure your working stance is safe.
FUMES AND GASES -- Can be dangerous to health
S Keep your head out of the fumes.
S Use ventilation, extraction at the arc, or both, to take fumes and gases away from your breathing zone
and the general area.
ARC RAYS -- Can injure eyes and burn skin.
S Protect your eyes and body. Use the correct welding screen and filter lens and wear protective
clothing.
S Protect bystanders with suitable screens or curtains.
FIRE HAZARD
S Sparks (spatter) can cause fire. Make sure therefore that there are no inflammable materials nearby.
NOISE -- Excessive noise can damage hearing
S Protect your ears. Use earmuffs or other hearing protection.
S Warn bystanders of the risk.
MALFUNCTION -- Call for expert assistance in the event of malfunction.
PROTECT YOURSELF AND OTHERS!
WARNING!

4 INSTALLATION
1. Choose a site for the power source where the flow of cooling a ir is unobstructed,
where excessive dust, damp air or corrosive fumes cannot be drawn in, and
where expelled air will not impair the gas shield.
2. Check that the terminal block for the main transformer is configured for the
correct voltage and that a correctly rated fuse is fitted. See wiring instructions
(drawing).
The recommended fuse and cable r atings comply with Swedish standards.
Follow the relevant standards for the country of use.
3. Connect the power source to a three phase electrical supply. The power source
must be earthed in accordance with relevant standards.
4. Connect the control cable between the power source and the wire feed unit.
5. Connect the welding cable from the wire feed unit to the socket marked +.
Connect the welding cable from the work piece (return cable) to either of the
sockets marked -- .
NOTE! It may be necessary to reverse the polarity depending on the type of
electrode.
Socket A Used for short arc welding (thin material or root runs, and for
aluminium).
Socket B Used for short arc welding, but gives slightly higher heat input
than socket A.
Socket C Used for spray arc welding in thicker material. Check that the
welding cables are tightened securely in their sockets.
6. Connect the cooling unit, if used.
There is a risk of tipping while transporting and storing if the welding
equipment leans more than 10°. Note that the stabiliser must be fitted to
increase the stability, i.e. when Feed Selector, Puls--Aid or counter balance are
used. Fitting is carried out according to the enclosed fitting instructions.
NOTE
The power supply should be lifted by means of its lifting
eye. The handle is only intended for pulling it along the
ground.

5 OPERATION
Semi--automatic welding
1. Use the recommended shielding gas.
2. Set the switch (1) to the semi--automatic welding position (5). T he fan will start
and the indicator lamp (2) will light.
3. Press the trigger on the welding gun. The power source relay will close at the
same time as the wire feed unit starts and the gas valve opens. The gas flow can
be adjusted; recommended rate (10--18 l/min depending on application.) When
adjusting the gas flow you should release the feed roller pressure arm to prevent
wire being fed through unnecessarily.
4. Set the required welding voltage using the potentiometer (3) on the front panel of
the power source and set the required wire feed speed using the potentiometer
on the front of the wire feed unit.

LAR 630 Magma
Manual welding (MMA)
1. Set the switch (1) to the manual welding position (6). The control transformer will
be energised. The fan will start and the indicator lamp (2) will light. The welding
current is continuously variable (4).
2. Connect the welding cable to + or -- C , depending on the type of electrode, and
the return cable to -- C or +.
3. Insert and electrode in the electrode holder. You can now start welding.
Arc--air gouging
1. Set the switch (1) to the arc--air gouging position (7). The control transformer will
be energised. The fan will start, the relay will close and indicator lamp (2) will
light. The welding current is continuously variable (4).
2. Connect the gouge to + and the r eturn cable to -- A
3. Fit a carbon rod to the gouge. You can now start gouging.
