INTRODUCTION
General

By way of the conversion kit an A2 SFE welding head or an A2 TFE tractor can be converted from SAW to MIG/MAG welding. All parts necessary for the conversion of the welding head are included in the kit. Before using the system for MIG/MAG welding, cooling water and shielding gas must be connected to the welding head, and some adjustments must be made in the control system as well. Instructions regarding these adjustments can be found in the instruction manual for the A2--A6 Process Controller.
