WARNING

ARC WELDING AND CUTTING CAN BE INJURIOUS TO YOURSELF AND

OTHERS. TAKE PRECAUTIONS WHEN WELDING. ASK FOR YOUR

EMPLOYER’S SAFETY PRACTICES WHICH SHOULD BE BASED ON MANU--

FACTURER’S 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 keep fumes and gases 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 ear defenders or other hearing protection.

S Warn bystanders of the risk.

MALFUNCTION

S Call for expert assistance in the event of malfunction.

READ AND UNDERSTAND THE OPERATING MANUAL

BEFORE INSTALLING OR OPERATING.

PROTECT YOURSELF AND OTHERS!

SAFETY

Users o f ESAB automatic welding machines have ultimate responsibility for ensuring

that anyone who works on or near the equipment observes all the relevant safety

precautions.

The following recommendations should be observed in addition to the standard re-

gulations that apply to the work place.

All work must be carried out according to the specified instructions by personnel who

are thoroughly familiar with t he operation of the welding machine.

Incorrect or unintentional operation of the equipment may lead to a hazardous situ-

ation which can result in injury to the operator and damage to the equipment.

1. Anyone who uses the automatic welding machine must be familiar with:

S its operation

S the location of emergency stops

S its function

S relevant safety precautions

To make this easier each switch, pushbutton or potentiometer is marked with a

symbol or text that indicates its function when activated.

2. The operator must ensure that:

S no unauthorized person is stationed within the working area of the machine

when it is started up.

S that no--one is in a hazardous position when the carriage or slide mechan-

isms are operated.

3. The work place must:

S be clear of mechanical components, tools, or other obstructions that could

prevent the operator from moving freely within the working area.

S be organized so that there is free access to the emergency stop.

4. Personal safety equipment

S Always wear recommended personal safety equipment, such as safety

glasses, flame--proof clothing, safety gloves.

S Do not wear loose--fitting items, such as scarves, bracelets, etc., which could

become trapped.

5. General precautions

Live electrical components are normally shielded from accidental contact.

S Make sure the return cable is connected securely.

S Work on high voltage components may only be carried out by a qualified

electrician.

S Appropriate fire extinguishing equipment must be clearly marked and close

at hand.

S Lubrication and maintenance must not be carried out on the equipment dur-

ing its operation.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

The A6 BFD1/BGD1 automatic beam welding machine consists of the automatic

welding machine A6 SFD1 or A6 SGD1, mounted on a beam--travelling carriage (I--

beam, IPE 300).

S A6 SFD1 is designed for submerged arc welding (SAW) of butt and fillet joints

using continuous or alternating current.

S A6 SGD1 is designed for gas metal arc welding (MIG/MAG) of butt and fillet

joints using continuous current.

These two automatic welding machines are the only ones approved for use in com-

bination with the carriage.

The machine is controlled over the PEG1 control box, joint tracking device A6 GMD

and slide control device PAK that is mounted on the carriage in a way that permits

turning.

The beam--travelling carriage is available in four execution:

1. With additional gear for beams with machined running surfaces.

2. With additional gear för beams with unmachined running surfaces.

The executions 1 and 2 have the following three setting facilities over the addi-

tional gear:

S Setting with welding speed.

S Setting with inching speed.

S Setting with disengagement.

The gear is operated by way of the release lever.

3. With the A6 VEC gear for beams with machined running surfaces.

4. With the A6 VEC gear for beams with unmachined running surfaces.

The executions 3 and 4 have a fixed ratio and are not releasable.

INSTALLATION

1. Dimension drawing, see on page 33

2. Automatic welding machine A6 SFD1, see instruction manual 443 398.

3. Automatic welding machine A6 SGD1, see instruction manual 443 400.

4. Motor with A6 VEC gear, see instruction manual 443 393.

5. Control box PEG1, see instruction manual 443 392.

6. Mount the welding machine by fitting the horizontal slide against the carriage.

S Place the four isolators between the slide and the carriage in a way that pre-

vents galvanic contact.

S Connect a 5--conductor cable between the drive motor of the carriage and

the PEG1 control box.

Warning! Make sure the automatic welding machine and the carriage are

galvanically separated.

7. Adjust the wheels of the carriage.

The horizontal drive roller fitted on A6 VEC or on the outgoing shaft journal of the

additional gear runs along the top flange of the I--beam.

The grooves of the two runners (one vertical and one horizontal runner a pair)

run along the bottom flange of the I--beam. The runners are excentrically lodged.

Each pair of runners has a common bearing bracket for vertical and horizontal

adjustment.

Adjustment

S Loosen the three fixing Allen screws (M10) of the bearing bracket.

Vertical adjustment

S Adjust the two vertical runners so that the treads of the horizontal runners

and of the drive roller comes just opposite the respective back flange.

Lateral adjustment

S Adjust the two horizontal runners.

8. Lifting or removal of the automatic welding machine is to be done by way of a

lifting strap and a traverse approved for a t least 500 kg. Check that the strap is

properly fitted so that the machine cannot come loose and get damaged.
