DANGER: Noise generated from welding can be damaging
to eardrums and contribute to hearing loss.
• Always wear proper personal hearing
protection that conforms to ANSI S12.6
(S3.19) during use. Under some conditions
and duration of use, noise from this product
may contribute to hearing loss.
DANGER: Welding comes with the risk of electricution
from the mains connection and/or welding current.
• NEVER touch live parts inside or outside of the
the unit.
• Keep all panels and covers securely in place and
disconnect power before servicing.
• ALWAYS wear suitable gloves (electrically
insulated and providing protection against heat).
• ALWAYS ensure operator and others nearby are
adequately protected and insulate from the work
and ground.
• All cables and leads must be secure and insulated.
Loose, scorched, or otherwise damaged cables
must be repaired/replaced immediately.
• The electrode must never be immersed in liquid
for cooling or touched when the power source is
switched on.
DANGER: Electric shock can kill; significant DC voltage
exists after the removal of input power.
• ALWAYS wait 60 seconds after power is turned
off before working on the unit.
• Check input capacitor voltage and be sure it is
near 0 before touching any part of the welder.

DANGER: Flying sparks and hot pieces of metal may burn
operator, cause clothing to catch fire or cause explosions.
• ALWAYS wear protective equipment and proper
clothing. Do not wear clothing with cuffs or turn-
ups that sparks could get into.
• Never weld near flammable materials. Flammable
materials must be at least 36 feet away from the
arc or properly protected by an approved cover.
• NEVER perform welding on containers that
were used to store combustible materials (e.g.
gases, propellants, oils). Material residues pose
an exploding hazard.
• NEVER perform welding near areas subject to
fire or near sealed tanks, vessels or pipes.
• A suitable, tested fire extinguisher must be nearby
and ready for use when welding.
DANGER: Failed or damaged parts can explode or cause
other parts to explode when power is applied.
• Never expose the device to naked flames or
permanent heat source. Excessive heat can
cause the battery to explode or burst.
• ALWAYS wear welding helmet and long sleeves
when servicing the unit.
DANGER: Electric current flowing through any conductor
causes localized Electric and Magnetic Fields (EMF).
Electromagnetic fields may pose as yet unknown risks to health.
• Wearers of pacemakers must seek medical advice
before coming near the device or any welding
operation in progress.
• For safety reasons, keep distances between the
welding cables and the welder's head/torso as
large as possible.
• Do not carry welder cables and hoses over the
shoulders or wrap around any part of the body.
