Electric Safety - GYS Easymig 130 Manual De Instrucciones

Translation of the original instructions

ELECTRIC SAFETY

The machine must be connected to an earthed electrical supply. Use the recommended fuse
size.
An electrical discharge can directly or indirectly cause serious accidents, if not deadly.
Never touch live parts inside and outside of the device when it is powered on (Torches, clamps, cables, electrodes)
as they are connected to the welding circuit.
Before opening the device, it is imperative to disconnect it from the grid and wait 2 minutes. so that all the
capacitors is discharged.
Do not touch the torch or electrode holder and earth clamp at the same time.
Be sure to change the cables and torches if they are damaged, to be performed by qualified and authorized
personnel.
The dimensioning of these accessories should be sufficient.
Always wear dry clothes in good condition, in order to be insulated from the electrical circuit. Wear insulating
shoes, regardless of the environment in which you work in.
EMC CLASSIFIED MATERIAL
These Class A devices are not intended to be used on a residential site where the electric
current is supplied by the public network, with a low voltage power supply. There may be
potential difficulties in ensuring electromagnetic compatibility on these sites, because of the
interferences, as well as radio frequencies.
This equipment does not comply with IEC 61000-3-12 and is intended to be connected to
private low-voltage systems interfacing with the public supply only at the medium- or high-
voltage level. On a public low-voltage power grid, it is the responsibility of the installer or
user of the device to ensure, by checking with the operator of the distribution network, which
device can be connected.
ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCES
The electric currents flowing through a conductor cause electrical and magnetic fields
(EMF).
All welders should use the following guidelines to minimize exposure to electromagnetic
fields from the welding circuit
- Regroup the electrode cables and earth clamp. If possible, attach them with tape
- Do not roll the electrode cable, torch or the earth clamp around the body.
- Do not stand between the cables. If the electrode cable or torch is on the right, the work cable should also be
on the right.
- Connect the earth cable to the workpiece, as close as possible to the welding area.
- Do not work next to the welding power source.
People wearing pacemakers are advised to consult their doctor before using this device.
Exposure to electromagnetic fields while welding may have other health effects which are
not yet known.
