Persons with life support devices such as pacemakers
should consult their doctor before approaching this
apparatus, to ensure that magnetic fields and high
electrical currents will not interfere with such devices.
Operation is only allowed with a safety
switch against stray current (RCD max. stray
current of 30mA).
Insert the plug of the electrical cable in a socket of
suitable shape, voltage and frequency complying
with current regulations.
Incorrect electrical installation, a supply voltage
which is too high or incorrect handling may lead to
an electric shock. Any electric shock may be fatal.
Use extension cables with a maximum length of 5
meters and with a cable cross-section of not less than
1.5 mm2. Use of extension cables of different length
and cross-section and also of adapters and multiple
sockets should be avoided.
Caution! Danger due to electric shock!
If the arc is not burning, the no-load voltage
between the earth terminal and the contact tip is
U0. This voltage may be fatal if the welder touches
the contact tip, burner nozzle, welding wire and
the workpiece with bare hands.
• It is essential to take into account that the pro-
tective conductor in electrical systems or devices
may be destroyed by the welding voltage in the
event of negligence:
e.g. the earth terminal is placed on the welding
device housing, which is connected with the
protective conductor of the electrical system. The
welding work is carried out using a machine with
a protective conductor connection. It is therefore
possible to use the machine for welding work
without having affixed the earth terminal on the
machine.In this case, the welding voltages moves
from the earth terminal to the machine via the
protective conductor. The high welding voltage
may lead to the protective conductor melting.
• The fuses on the supply lines to the power
sockets must comply with the regulations (VDE
0100). Therefore, according to these regulations,
only fuse and/or automatic circuit breakers which
correspond to the wire cross-section may be used
(16 ampere circuit breakers).
A fuse which does not correspond to the system
may lead to a cable fire and/or building fire
damage.
Overloaded supply networks and circuits may lead
to faults for other users during the welding process.
In case of doubt, the electricity company must be
consulted.
Only connect the flux cored electrode welding device
to a socket which is easily accessible so that you can
quickly disconnect it from the power grid in the event
of a fault.
Check the cable and/or socket for damages before
the appliance putting into operation.
Cables must always be fully unwound in order to
prevent the hazard posed by increased electroma-
gnetic fields.
Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of
electric shock. Lay the power cable so that it does not
become a trip hazard.
Do not operate the flux cored electrode welding
device if it has any visible damage or the power cable
and/or mains plug is defective.
Do not bend the power cable.
Protect all cables against oil, sharp edges and high
temperatures.
Defective cable or plug may cause electric shock.
Do not pull the service cable to pull the plug out of
socket.
The power supply cable is a high-quality cable which
must not be damaged. When carrying out your work,
ensure that you do not contact the cable with hot
objects. If the connection cable is damaged, this
must be replaced with a special connection cable
which can be obtained from the manufacturer or its
customer service department.
The connection cable may only be replaced by the
manufacturer or its customer service department or
individuals with similar qualifications.
Safety instructions for welding devices
WARNING! Risk of fire! Improper handling
may lead to serious fires or injuries!
IP21S protection degree of the welder. The welder
must not be exposed to rain and moisture when
being operated or stored.
Check the voltage. Technical data given on the type
label must correspond with electric network voltage.
Ensure the welding cable, tip, burner and earth
terminal are in excellent condition. Any wear to the
insulation and the live parts may create a dangerous
situation and reduce the quality of the welding work.
The use of this device may lead to wear on certain
parts. Therefore, it is important to check the device for
any damage and defects on a regular basis.
Protect the flux cored electrode welding device
against moisture and only use it inside in dry condi-
tions.
Never immerse the flux cored electrode welding
device, the power cable or mains plug in water or any
other liquids.
Never touch the flux cored electrode welding device
or the mains plug with damp hands.
Ensure that you do not come into direct contact with
the welding circuit.
