2. Refer grounding of the welding machine to a certified electrician or other qualified person in
accordance with the regulations (Electrical Equipment Technical Standard).
3. When replacing a circuit board, fuse, or other parts or in cases where accidental contact with other
high-voltage parts is probable, be sure to turn off the main circuit breaker and make sure that a lit
charge lamp begins to dim and finally goes out.
Make sure that the charge lamp remains unlit. Using a tester, also make sure that the unit is free of
high voltage. Do not start installation or maintenance until it is certain that the unit is not charged with
power.
4. Do not use damaged cables or those which have insufficient capacity or exposed conductors.
5. Ensure that cable connections are tightened and properly insulated.
6. Do not operate the welding machine with its casing or cover removed.
7. Avoid using a torn or wet pair of gloves. Always use dry, insulated gloves.
8. Perform inspection and maintenance periodically. Do not re-use the equipment until damaged
portions, if any, have been properly repaired.
9. Cooling water to be used should have an electric resistance of not less than 5000Ω-CM and be free
of sediments.
10. Electric cables and air and water hoses to be used should be sturdy enough to withstand the
specified load and pressure.
11. When the tip changer is put out of use, the related equipment should be powered off.
12. Do not leave the doors of all units open unless they must be opened for inspection or maintenance
service. Keep the doors locked during operation. Ask the responsible person for strict storage of keys.
CAUTION Use protective gears to protect you and your co-workers from splashes or
spatters that are generated during welding job.
1. Keep the job site clean of combustibles which easily ignite when brought into contact with spatters.
If they cannot be removed, cover them with a sheet of nonflammable material.
2. Do not use the tip changer near the area where there are combustible gases.
3. Keep hot base metal away from combustibles.
4. Ensure that the cable connections are tightened and properly insulated.
5. Provide an extinguisher near the welding site in case of an emergency.

! CAUTION
Monitor display of the set current
The indicated value of set current is the value calculated under the welding
conditions including Activation Series, Gun Series, and Step Up Rate. After
conduction, changes made to the associated current value and weld time or
execution of Step Reset or Step Change will induce a disagreement in the
relationship between the indicated value of set current and the indicated value of

Current Detection Signal output function: Parameter “Pr CurDetect” Select (Note 1)
Current Detection Signal sequence (top)………”Pr CurDect ON (Enabled)
With “Pr CurDetect” ON, the Current Detection signal is outputted.
Output conditions: Except for Welding Alarm or No Weld and when the welding current is
Detected.
The Last Step signal from TB1 is not outputted. TP Indication only.
Current Detection Signal sequence (bottom)……”Pr CurDetect” OFF (Disabled)
With “Pr CurDetect” OFF, there is not conduction Detection Signal output.
At this time, when “P8 Step Types” 1 and 2 have been selected (Step Up Enabled), the Last
Step signal is outputted from TB1.
Note 1: With Remote I/O Enabled, terminal block TB1 is used as the remote I/O terminal block.
Therefore, the Current Detection signal is not reaching the terminal block TB1.
Note 2: The Current Detection signal detects the welding current and is outputted based on normal
operation. When Current Alarm or No Weld is detected, the signal is not outputted.
The output timing is approx. 1cyc the HOLD time process starts.
! CAUTION
Step Up Finish process: “Last Step signal” is outputted from B6 on TB1 at a
switch to the last step order and “Step Up Finish signal”
is outputted from B5 on TB1 at the end of last step.
Notes 1): With the parameter “Pr CurDetect” Enabled, Conduction Detection signal is
outputted from B6 on TB1 and therefore Last Step signal is not outputted.
2): With the parameter “Ps StepF2out” Enabled, Step2’s Step
Completion signal is outputted from B6 on TB1 and therefore Last Step
signal is not outputted.
3): With the parameter “Ps StepF2out” Enabled, Step1’s Step Completion
signal is outputted from B5 on TB1 and Other Series’ Step Completion
signals are not outputted.
4): The parameters “Pr CurDetect” and “Ps StepF2out” cannot be used when
both are “ON”. Take care of their settings.
Caution
- When the Linear UP control is selected, the step up order can be raised up to Step 15.
- The up rate should be set for Step 0 when making linear up from Step 1.
Typicalsettings :
The Variable Pressure is set in two ways: direct setting with “N” when inputting the data on welding
conditions and “%” input with the equipment air pressure taken as 100%.
CAUTION
1. Please confirm the range of the control voltage of the model used, and set the
parameter of the variable pressure function selection. An incorrect setting can damage
the unit.
2. If the plant air pressure does not meet the required pressure for the gun, the maximum
pressure cannot be attained.
When data has been set up, use the “No Weld” mode to verify the welding operations.
- No Weld (NOW)
Use this mode when verifying the welding sequence upon completion of installation or when changing the tip.
The welding sequence will be controlled according to your settings but no conduction will be provided.
- Conti. Press. (NOW2)
The gun will hold the pressurization state while START SW is set to ON. This mode can be
used to check for gun engagement and to measure the welding pressure. However, this mode is enabled
when the solenoid valve power is connected to the timer side. No conduction will be provided.
