Any modification or update that is not specified in the instructions manual should not be undertaken.
The manufacturer is not liable for any injury or damage due to non-compliance with the instructions featured in this manual.
In the event of problems or uncertainties, please consult a qualified person to handle the installation properly.
ENVIRONMENT
This equipment must only be used for welding operations in accordance with the limits indicated on the descriptive panel and/or in the user manual.
Safety instructions must be followed. In case of improper or unsafe use, the manufacturer cannot be held liable.
This equipment must be used and stored in a room free from dust, acid, flammable gas or any other corrosive agent. Operate the machine in an
open, or well-ventilated area.
Operating temperature:
Use between -10 and +40°C (+14 and +104°F).
Storage between -20 and +55°C (-4 and 131°F).
Air humidity:
Lower or equal to 50% at 40°C (104°F).
Lower or equal to 90% at 20°C (68°F).
Altitude:
Up to 1000 meters above sea level (3280 feet).
INDIVIDUAL PROTECTION & OTHERS
Arc welding can be dangerous and can cause serious injury or even death.
Welding exposes the user to dangerous heat, arc rays, electromagnetic fields, risk of electric shock, noise and gas fumes. People wearing pacemakers
are advised to consult a doctor before using the welding machine.
To protect oneself as well as others, ensure the following safety precautions are taken:
In order to protect you from burns and radiations, wear clothing without turn-up or cuffs. These clothes must be insulating, dry,
fireproof, in good condition and cover the whole body.
Wear protective gloves which guarantee electrical and thermal insulation.
Use sufficient welding protective gear for the whole body: hood, gloves, jacket, trousers... (varies depending on the application/
operation). Protect the eyes during cleaning operations. Contact lenses are prohibited during use.
It may be necessary to install fireproof welding curtains to protect the area against arc rays, weld spatter and sparks.
Advise people around the working area to never look at the arc nor the molten metal, and to wear protective clothes.
Ensure ear protection is worn by the operator if the welding process exceeds the authorised noise limit (the same applies to any
person in the welding area).
Keep hands, hair and clothes away from moving parts such as fans, and engines.
Never remove the safety covers from the cooling unit when the machine is plugged in. The manufacturer is not liable for any injury
or damage caused due to non-compliance with the safety precautions.
Parts that have just been welded are hot and can cause burns when handled. When servicing the torch or electrode holder, make
sure that it is cold enough by waiting at least 10 minutes before doing so. 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 to ensure protection of the goods and the safety of people.
WELDING FUMES AND GASES
Fumes, gas and dust produced during welding are hazardous to health. It is mandatory to ensure adequate ventilation and/
or extraction to keep fumes and gas away from the work area. Using an air fed welding helmet is recommended in case of
insufficient ventilation in the workplace.
Check that the air supply is effective by referring to the recommended safety regulations.
Precautions must be taken when welding in small areas, and the operator will need supervision from a safe distance. In addition, the welding of certain
materials containing lead, cadmium, zinc, mercury or beryllium may be particularly harmful.
Also remove any grease on the metal pieces before welding.
Gas cylinders must be stored in an open or ventilated area. They must be stored vertically and held by a support or trolley to limit the risk of fall.
Do not weld in areas where grease or paint are stored.
