IMPORTANT:
BEFORE
EQUIPMENT, READ THE CONTENTS OF
THIS MANUAL, WHICH MUST BE STORED
IN A PLACE FAMILIAR TO ALL USERS FOR
THE ENTIRE OPERATIVE LIFE-SPAN OF THE
MACHINE. THIS EQUIPMENT MUST BE
USED SOLELY FOR WELDING OPERATIONS.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS.
WELDING AND ARC CUTTING CAN BE
HARMFUL TO YOURSELF
AND OTHERS.
The user must therefore be
educated against the hazards, summarized below,
deriving from welding operations. For more
detailed information, order the manual code
3.300.758.
NOISE.
This machine does not directly produce
noise exceeding 80dB. The plasma
cutting/welding procedure may produce
noise levels beyond said limit; users must therefore
implement all precautions required by law.
ELECTRIC AND MAGNETIC FIELDS.
May be dangerous.
Electric current following through
any
conductor
Electric and Magnetic Fields (EMF).
Welding/cutting current creates EMF fields around
cables and power sources.
The magnetic fields created by high currents may
affect the operation of pacemakers. Wearers of
vital electronic equipment (pacemakers) shall
consult their physician before beginning any arc
welding, cutting, gouging or spot welding
operations.
Exposure to EMF fields in welding/cutting may
have other health effects which are now not
known.
All operators should use the following procedures
in order to minimize exposure to EMF fields from
the welding/cutting circuit:
- Route the electrode and work cables together –
Secure them with tape when possible.
- Never coil the electrode/torch lead around your
body.

STARTING
THE
causes
localized
−
Do
not
place
your body
electrode/torch lead and work cables. If the
electrode/torch lead cable is on your right side,
the work cable should also be on your right
side.
- Connect the work cable to the workpiece as
close as possible to the area being welded/cut.
- Do not work next to welding/cutting power
source.
EXPLOSIONS.
Do not weld in the vicinity of containers
under pressure, or in the presence of
explosive dust, gases or fumes.
All cylinders and pressure regulators used in
welding operations should be handled with care.
ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY.
This machine is manufactured in compliance with
the instructions contained in the harmonized
standard IEC 60974-10 (CL.A), and must be used
solely for professional purposes in an industrial
environment. There may be potential difficulties
in ensuring electromagnetic compatibility in
non-industrial environments.
DISPOSAL
OF
ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT.
Do not dispose of electrical equipment
together with normal waste!
In observance of European Directive
2002/96/EC on Waste Electrical and
Electronic Equipment and its implementation in
accordance with national law, electrical equipment
that has reached the end of its life must be
collected
separately
environmentally compatible recycling facility. As
the owner of the equipment, you should get
information on approved collection systems from
our local representative. By applying this European
Directive you will improve the environment and
human health!
