WARNINGS - SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
These instructions must be read and fully understood before use.
Do not carry out any alterations or maintenance work that is not directly specified in this manual.
The manufacturer shall not be liable for any damage to persons or property resulting from use not in accordance with the instructions in this manual.
In the event of problems or uncertainties, please consult a qualified person to handle the installation properly.
Read the welding machine's instruction manual before using the wire feeder.
ENVIRONMENT
This equipment should only be used for welding operations performed within the limits indicated on the information panel and/or in this manual. These
safety guidelines must be observed. The manufacturer cannot be held responsible in the event of improper or dangerous use.
The equipment must be operated and stored in a location that is free of dust, acid, flammable gases or any other corrosive substances. Operate the
machine in an open, or well-ventilated area.
Temperature range:
Use between -10 and +40°C (+14 and +104°F).
Store between -20 and +55°C (-4 and 131°F).
Air humidity:
Lower than or equal to 50% at 40°C (104°F).
Lower than or equal to 90% at 20°C (68°F).
Altitude:
Up to 1,000 m above sea level (3280 feet).
PROTECTING YOURSELF AND OTHERS
Arc welding can be dangerous and cause serious injury or death.
Welding exposes people to a dangerous source of heat, light radiation from the arc, electromagnetic fields (caution to those using pacemakers) and
risk of electrocution, as well as noise and fumes.
To protect yourself and others, please observe the following safety instructions:
To protect yourself from burns and radiation, wear insulating, dry and fireproof clothing without lapels. Ensure the clothing is in good
condition and that covers the whole body.
Wear protective gloves which provide electrical and thermal insulation.
Use welding protection and/or a welding helmet with a sufficient level of protection (depending on the specific use). Protect your
eyes during cleaning procedures. Contact lenses are specifically forbidden.
It may be necessary to section off the welding area with fireproof curtains to protect the area from arc radiation and hot spatter.
Inform people in the welding area not to stare at the arc rays or molten parts and to wear appropriate clothing for protection.
Wear noise protection headphones if the welding process becomes louder than the permissible limit (this is also applicable to
anyone else in the welding area).
Keep hands, hair and clothing away from moving parts (the ventilation fan, for example).
Never remove the cooling unit housing protections when the welding power source is live, the manufacturer cannot be held
responsible inthe event of an accident.
Newly welded parts are hot and can cause burns when handled. When maintenance work is carried out on the torch or electrode
holder, ensure that it is sufficiently cold by waiting at least 10 minutes before carrying out any work. The cooling unit must be
switched on when using a water-cooled torch to ensure that the liquid cannot cause burns.
It is important to secure the working area before leaving it, in order to protect people and property.
WELDING FUMES AND GAS
The fumes, gases and dusts emitted by welding are harmful to health. Sufficient ventilation must be provided and an additional air
supply may be required. An air-fed mask could be a solution in situations where there is inadequate ventilation.
Check the extraction system's performance against the relevant safety standards.
Caution: Welding in confined spaces requires safety monitoring from a safe distance. In addition, welding certain materials containing lead, cadmium,
zinc or mercury, or even beryllium, can be particularly harmful, so degrease the parts before welding them.
Cylinders should be stored in open or well-ventilated areas. They should be stored in an upright position and kept on a stand or trolley. Welding should
not be carried out near grease or paint.
