4. Setup

1. Unpacking and Inspection: Carefully unpack all components. Inspect the machine and accessories for any signs of damage during transit. Report any damage to the supplier immediately.
2. Placement: Place the machine on a stable, level surface in a well-ventilated area.
3. Power Connection: Ensure the machine is connected to a power supply matching the specified voltage (220V or 110V, depending on your model). The machine requires a 16A fuse.
4. Connecting Welding Guns: Attach the desired welding gun to the machine's output port. Ensure a secure connection.
5. Grounding: Connect the ground clamp securely to a clean, bare metal part of the vehicle or workpiece, close to the repair area.

5. Operating Instructions

Before operating, ensure all safety precautions are observed.

5.1 Powering On and Mode Selection

1. Turn the Power Switch & Regulation knob (6) to the 'ON' position. The Power Indicator (9) should illuminate.
2. Select the desired welding mode using the Tool Select icons (1-5) on the control panel.
3. Choose between 'Manual' or 'Automatic' operation using the Manual/Automatic Switch (7).
4. Adjust the welding power using the Power Switch & Regulation knob (6) according to the thickness and type of metal being worked on.

5.2 Dent Pulling Operation

For dent pulling, attach the appropriate pulling accessory (e.g., triangular meson, round meson, OT meson, wavy line) to the welding gun. For larger dents, the slide hammer (dent puller) can be used in conjunction with these accessories.

1. Clean the dented area thoroughly.
2. Select the appropriate meson or wavy line for the dent size and shape.
3. Attach the chosen accessory to the welding gun.
4. Place the accessory firmly against the dented metal surface.
5. Initiate the weld (either manually or automatically, depending on the switch setting). The machine creates small, strong welding spots.
6. Once welded, attach the slide hammer or draw hook to the accessory.
7. Gently pull the dent outwards. Repeat as necessary, moving across the dented area.

5.3 Carbon Rod Heating Operation

For shrinking stretched metal or minor surface imperfections, use the carbon rod heating function.

1. Attach the carbon rod chuck and a carbon rod to the welding gun.
2. Select the 'Carbon Rod to Close the Fire' mode.
3. Lightly touch the carbon rod to the metal surface in the area to be shrunk.
4. Observe the metal for a slight glow. Do not overheat.
5. Allow the metal to cool naturally or use a damp cloth to cool it, which helps in shrinking.

5.4 General Usage Tips

• Always ensure the metal surface is clean and free of paint, rust, or grease for optimal welding results.
• Practice on scrap metal before working on the actual vehicle to get a feel for the machine's settings and operation.
• The single-side welding thickness range is 0.6 - 1.2 mm. Adjust power accordingly.
• For best results, work systematically across the dent, pulling in small increments.

6. Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your VEVOR PRO SPOT 2600.

• Cleaning: After each use, clean the machine and accessories. Wipe down the main unit with a dry cloth. Remove any welding spatter from the guns and chucks.
• Cable Inspection: Regularly inspect all cables, hoses, and connections for cuts, abrasions, or loose fittings. Replace damaged components immediately.
• Cooling System: The machine features an efficient cooling system with side vents. Ensure these vents are clear of obstructions to allow for proper heat dissipation.

• Storage: Store the machine and accessories in a dry, clean environment, preferably in the provided compact toolbox, when not in use.

7. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues, refer to the following common problems and solutions:

• Machine does not power on:
  • Check power cable connection.
  • Ensure the power switch is in the 'ON' position.
  • Verify the power supply voltage matches the machine's requirements (220V/110V).
  • Check the main fuse (16A).
• No welding output:
  • Ensure the ground clamp is securely attached to a clean metal surface.
  • Check for loose connections on the welding gun.
  • Verify the correct welding mode is selected.
  • Adjust welding power settings.
• Poor welding quality (weak or inconsistent welds):
  • Ensure the workpiece surface is clean and free of contaminants.
  • Adjust welding power.
  • Check the condition of the welding tips/accessories; replace if worn.
• Error Indicator (8) is illuminated:
  • This typically indicates an internal fault or overheating. Turn off the machine, disconnect power, and allow it to cool down. If the error persists, contact VEVOR support.
• Machine overheats:
  • Ensure cooling vents are clear.
  • Reduce continuous operating time.
  • Allow the machine to cool down before resuming operation.
