SECURITY
The arc welding can be dangerous and leads serious injury, may fatal. Protect yourself and protect the
others.
Respect the following warnings:
Arc rays :
Rain, steam,
humidity :
Electric shocks :
Moving :
Burns :
Fire risks :
Smokes :
Extraprecautions :
The persons carrying pacemaker have to consult a doctor before using these machines
In TIG welding, manipulate the gas bottle carefully. Indeed, there are risks if the bottle or the bottle
TROUBLESHOOTING
Anomalies
The welding unit do not supply
current.
The
two
visual
indicators
switched on.
The green indicator is on but you
cannot weld.
If, when the unit is on and you put
your hand on the welding unit's
body, you feel tingling sensation.
Your unit does not weld correctly.
Protect yourself thanks to a welding helmet in compliance with EN175 equiped with filters
in compliance with EN 169 or EN 379. Inform and protect by the same means any people
in the welding environment.
The working environment must be clean (degree of pollution ≤ 3) and protected
against rain. Put the appliance on an even place and at least at one meter from the parts
to be welded. Do not use them under rain or snow.
This appliance may only be use with a 230V monophase supply and must be earthed.
Do not underestimate the weight of the apparatus. Do not carry it over people or things.
Do not drop it. Do not set it brutally
Wear protective or fire-proof clothing (overalls, jeans).
Use some welder gloves and a fire-proof apron.
Protect the others by installing non flammable protection wall, or prevent the
others to not look at the arc and to keep a sufficient distance
Suppress all flammable products from the working area. Do not works near flammable gas.
Do not inhale gas or welding smokes. If indoors ventilate the area well and/or use local
extraction ventilation equipment to remove fumes and gases.
Any welding operation :
- in environments with increased risk of electric shock,
- in confined spaces,
- in the presence of flammable or explosive materials
must be evaluated in advance by an "Expert supervisor" and must always be carried out in
the presence of other people trained to intervene in case of emergency.
Technical protection measures MUST BE taken as described in the TECHNICAL
SPECIFICATION "IEC 62081".
Welding in raised positions is forbidden unless safety platforms are used.
Do not use the unit to thaw tubing.
