ACCESSORIES

Non-Synergic Weld Modes (Mode 5)

• Voltage is adjustable at the power source. The

right control knob on the power source will
adjust the voltage that is displayed in the meter
directly above it.

• The left Display (WFS / AMPS) on the POWER

MIG

®

350MP will have 4 dashes (----) to indi-

cate that the left control knob on the power
source is inactive. Wire Feed Speed is set at
the Spool Gun.

• The following procedure settings for Aluminum

4043 can be used as initial settings for making
test welds to determine final settings:

4. Synergic Weld Modes

The

POWER MIG

®

350MP

is designed to enable syner-

gic weld modes and synergic pulse processes with the
spool gun. The actual wire feed speed (WFS) of the
spool gun must be measured and manually set on the
POWER MIG

®

350MP as a work point for the

POWER MIG

®

350MP (SPD).

In synergic modes when the spool gun trigger is
pulled, an adjustable value for the SPD work
point is displayed in the left meter. The letters
SPD are displayed in the right meter.

• The left control knob adjusts the SPD value.

The right control knob is inactive.

• Measure the actual WFS, in inches per minute,

at the spool gun and set the SPD at the
POWER MIG

®

350MP to match this value.

WFS can be measured by pulling the trigger of
the spool gun and feeding wire for 6 seconds.
Measure the length of wire (in inches) that was
fed and multiply by 10.

• The POWER MIG

®

350MP is now configured

and ready to weld in the synergic mode.

• Adjustment of the SPD value from the set value

has the affect of adjusting trim or arc length.

• To increase the arc length; increase the SPD

value at the POWER MIG

®

350MP to a value

higher than the actual WFS.

Remember; do not change the WFS at the spool
gun.

• To decrease the arc length; decrease the SPD

value at the POWER MIG

®

350MP to a value

lower than the actual WFS.

Remember: The dialed in SPD value at the

POWER

MIG

®

350MP

does not control the WFS at the spool

gun. Rather, it is adjusting the

POWER MIG

®

350MP

synergic work point. Therefore, adjusting the SPD
value will not change your actual WFS at the spool
gun. WFS can only be changed at the spool gun.

PUSH-PULL TORCHES

Remove all input power to the POWER MIG

®

350MP before installing the Connection Adapter
Kit.

-----------------------------------------------------------

Refer to the Ownerʼs Manual of the Torch for
Amperage and Duty Cycle rating information. The
torch rating may not match the rating of the power
source.

MAKING A WELD WITH THE PUSH PULL
TORCH INSTALLED

• Set the idle roll pressure on the wire drive between

an indicator reading of 0-2. A recommended start
point is 1.5.

• Set the Gun Selection toggle switch located inside

the wire drive compartment directly above the push-
pull control cable connector to "PUSH-PULL GUN."

• Depending on the weld mode, set the Voltage or

Trim at the

POWER MIG

®

350MP

using the right control

knob located on the upper case front panel.

• The Wire Feed Speed (WFS) is set using the control

knob on the Torch. The left control knob on the

POWER MIG

®

350MP

is inactive. The actual WFS

being set at the torch is displayed on the

POWER

MIG

®

350MP

.

• All weld parameters normally available for the active

weld mode are available during push-pull operation.
Refer to the Operation Section of this manual.
