Symbol Usage DANGER! − Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury. The possible hazards are shown in the adjoining symbols or explained in the text. Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury. The possible hazards are shown in the adjoining symbols or explained in the text. NOTICE − Indicates statements not related to personal injury. Indicates special instructions. This group of symbols means Warning! Watch Out! ELECTRIC SHOCK, MOVING PARTS, and HOT PARTS hazards. Consult symbols and related instructions below for necessary actions to avoid the hazards. 1-2. Arc Welding Hazards The symbols shown below are used throughout this manual to call attention to and identify possible hazards. When you see the symbol, watch out, and follow the related instructions to avoid the hazard. The safety information given below is only a summary of the more complete safety information found in the Safety Standards listed in Section 1-5. Read and follow all Safety Standards. Only qualified persons should install, operate, maintain, and repair this unit. During operation, keep everybody, especially children, away. Always verify the supply ground − check and be sure that input power cord ground wire is properly connected to ground terminal in disconnect box or that cord plug is connected to a properly grounded receptacle outlet. When making input connections, attach proper grounding conductor first − double-check connections. Keep cords dry, free of oil and grease, and protected from hot metal and sparks. Frequently inspect input power cord for damage or bare wiring − replace cord immediately if damaged − bare wiring can kill. Turn off all equipment when not in use. Do not use worn, damaged, undersized, or poorly spliced cables. ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill. Touching live electrical parts can cause fatal shocks or severe burns. The electrode and work circuit is electrically live whenever the output is on. The input power circuit and machine internal circuits are also live when power is on. In semiautomatic or automatic wire welding, the wire, wire reel, drive roll housing, and all metal parts touching the welding wire are electrically live. Incorrectly installed or improperly grounded equipment is a hazard. Do not touch live electrical parts. Wear dry, hole-free insulating gloves and body protection. Insulate yourself from work and ground using dry insulating mats or covers big enough to prevent any physical contact with the work or ground. Do not use AC output in damp areas, if movement is confined, or if there is a danger of falling. Use AC output ONLY if required for the welding process. If AC output is required, use remote output control if present on unit. Additional safety precautions are required when any of the following electrically hazardous conditions are present: in damp locations or while wearing wet clothing; on metal structures such as floors, gratings, or scaffolds; when in cramped positions such as sitting, kneeling, or lying; or when there is a high risk of unavoidable or accidental contact with the workpiece or ground. For these conditions, use the following equipment in order presented: 1) a semiautomatic DC constant voltage (wire) welder, 2) a DC manual (stick) welder, or 3) an AC welder with reduced open-circuit voltage. In most situations, use of a DC, constant voltage wire welder is recommended. And, do not work alone! Disconnect input power or stop engine before installing or servicing this equipment. Lockout/tagout input power according to OSHA 29 CFR 1910.147 (see Safety Standards). Properly install, ground, and operate this equipment according to its Owner’s Manual and national, state, and local codes. Do not drape cables over your body. If earth grounding of the workpiece is required, ground it directly with a separate cable. Do not touch electrode if you are in contact with the work, ground, or another electrode from a different machine. Do not touch electrode holders connected to two welding machines at the same time since double open-circuit voltage will be present. Use only well-maintained equipment. Repair or replace damaged parts at once. Maintain unit according to manual. Wear a safety harness if working above floor level. Keep all panels and covers securely in place. Clamp work cable with good metal-to-metal contact to workpiece or worktable as near the weld as practical. Insulate work clamp when not connected to workpiece to prevent contact with any metal object. Do not connect more than one electrode or work cable to any single weld output terminal. Disconnect cable for process not in use. SIGNIFICANT DC VOLTAGE exists in inverter welding power sources AFTER removal of input power. Turn Off inverter, disconnect input power, and discharge input capacitors according to instructions in Maintenance Section before touching any parts. HOT PARTS can burn. Do not touch hot parts bare handed. Allow cooling period before working on equipment. To handle hot parts, use proper tools and/or wear heavy, insulated welding gloves and clothing to prevent burns. OM-2242 Page 1 FUMES AND GASES can be hazardous. Welding produces fumes and gases. Breathing these fumes and gases can be hazardous to your health. Keep your head out of the fumes. Do not breathe the fumes. If inside, ventilate the area and/or use local forced ventilation at the arc to remove welding fumes and gases. If ventilation is poor, wear an approved air-supplied respirator. Read and understand the Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDSs) and the manufacturer’s instructions for metals, consumables, coatings, cleaners, and degreasers. Work in a confined space only if it is well ventilated, or while wearing an air-supplied respirator. Always have a trained watchperson nearby. Welding fumes and gases can displace air and lower the oxygen level causing injury or death. Be sure the breathing air is safe. Do not weld in locations near degreasing, cleaning, or spraying operations. The heat and rays of the arc can react with vapors to form highly toxic and irritating gases. Do not weld on coated metals, such as galvanized, lead, or cadmium plated steel, unless the coating is removed from the weld area, the area is well ventilated, and while wearing an air-supplied respirator. The coatings and any metals containing these elements can give off toxic fumes if welded. ARC RAYS can burn eyes and skin. Arc rays from the welding process produce intense visible and invisible (ultraviolet and infrared) rays that can burn eyes and skin. Sparks fly off from the weld. Wear an approved welding helmet fitted with a proper shade of filter lenses to protect your face and eyes from arc rays and sparks when welding or watching (see ANSI Z49.1 and Z87.1 listed in Safety Standards). Wear approved safety glasses with side shields under your helmet. Use protective screens or barriers to protect others from flash, glare and sparks; warn others not to watch the arc. Wear protective clothing made from durable, flame-resistant material (leather, heavy cotton, or wool) and foot protection. WELDING can cause fire or explosion. Welding on closed containers, such as tanks, drums, or pipes, can cause them to blow up. Sparks can fly off from the welding arc. The flying sparks, hot workpiece, and hot equipment can cause fires and burns. Accidental contact of electrode to metal objects can cause sparks, explosion, overheating, or fire. Check and be sure the area is safe before doing any welding. Remove all flammables within 35 ft (10.7 m) of the welding arc. If this is not possible, tightly cover them with approved covers. Do not weld where flying sparks can strike flammable material. Protect yourself and others from flying sparks and hot metal. Be alert that welding sparks and hot materials from welding can easily go through small cracks and openings to adjacent areas. Watch for fire, and keep a fire extinguisher nearby. Be aware that welding on a ceiling, floor, bulkhead, or partition can cause fire on the hidden side. Do not weld on containers that have held combustibles, or on closed containers such as tanks, drums, or pipes unless they are properly prepared according to AWS F4.1 and AWS A6.0 (see Safety Standards). Do not weld where the atmosphere may contain flammable dust, gas, or liquid vapors (such as gasoline). Connect work cable to the work as close to the welding area as practical to prevent welding current from traveling long, possibly unknown paths and causing electric shock, sparks, and fire hazards. Do not use welder to thaw frozen pipes. OM-2242 Page 2 Remove stick electrode from holder or cut off welding wire at contact tip when not in use. Wear oil-free protective garments such as leather gloves, heavy shirt, cuffless trousers, high shoes, and a cap. Remove any combustibles, such as a butane lighter or matches, from your person before doing any welding. After completion of work, inspect area to ensure it is free of sparks, glowing embers, and flames. Use only correct fuses or circuit breakers. Do not oversize or bypass them. Follow requirements in OSHA 1910.252 (a) (2) (iv) and NFPA 51B for hot work and have a fire watcher and extinguisher nearby. FLYING METAL or DIRT can injure eyes. Welding, chipping, wire brushing, and grinding cause sparks and flying metal. As welds cool, they can throw off slag. Wear approved safety glasses with side shields even under your welding helmet. BUILDUP OF GAS can injure or kill. Shut off compressed gas supply when not in use. Always ventilate confined spaces or use approved air-supplied respirator. ELECTRIC AND MAGNETIC FIELDS (EMF) can affect Implanted Medical Devices. Wearers of Pacemakers and other Implanted Medical Devices should keep away. Implanted Medical Device wearers should consult their doctor and the device manufacturer before going near arc welding, spot welding, gouging, plasma arc cutting, or induction heating operations. NOISE can damage hearing. Noise from some processes or equipment can damage hearing. Wear approved ear protection if noise level is high. CYLINDERS can explode if damaged. Compressed gas cylinders contain gas under high pressure. If damaged, a cylinder can explode. Since gas cylinders are normally part of the welding process, be sure to treat them carefully. Protect compressed gas cylinders from excessive heat, mechanical shocks, physical damage, slag, open flames, sparks, and arcs. Install cylinders in an upright position by securing to a stationary support or cylinder rack to prevent falling or tipping. Keep cylinders away from any welding or other electrical circuits. Never drape a welding torch over a gas cylinder. Never allow a welding electrode to touch any cylinder. Never weld on a pressurized cylinder − explosion will result. Use only correct compressed gas cylinders, regulators, hoses, and fittings designed for the specific application; maintain them and associated parts in good condition. Turn face away from valve outlet when opening cylinder valve. Keep protective cap in place over valve except when cylinder is in use or connected for use. Use the right equipment, correct procedures, and sufficient number of persons to lift and move cylinders. Read and follow instructions on compressed gas cylinders, associated equipment, and Compressed Gas Association (CGA) publication P-1 listed in Safety Standards. 1-3. Additional Symbols For Installation, Operation, And Maintenance FIRE OR EXPLOSION hazard. BATTERY EXPLOSION can injure. Do not install or place unit on, over, or near combustible surfaces. Do not install unit near flammables. Do not overload building wiring − be sure power supply system is properly sized, rated, and protected to handle this unit. Do not use welder to charge batteries or jump start vehicles unless it has a battery charging feature designed for this purpose. MOVING PARTS can injure. Keep away from moving parts such as fans. Keep all doors, panels, covers, and guards closed and securely in place. FALLING EQUIPMENT can injure. Use lifting eye to lift unit only, NOT running gear, gas cylinders, or any other accessories. Use equipment of adequate capacity to lift and support unit. If using lift forks to move unit, be sure forks are long enough to extend beyond opposite side of unit. Keep equipment (cables and cords) away from moving vehicles when working from an aerial location. Follow the guidelines in the Applications Manual for the Revised NIOSH Lifting Equation (Publication No. 94−110) when manually lifting heavy parts or equipment. OVERUSE can cause OVERHEATING Allow cooling period; follow rated duty cycle. Reduce current or reduce duty cycle before starting to weld again. Do not block or filter airflow to unit. Have only qualified persons remove doors, panels, covers, or guards for maintenance and troubleshooting as necessary. Reinstall doors, panels, covers, or guards when maintenance is finished and before reconnecting input power. READ INSTRUCTIONS. Read and follow all labels and the Owner’s Manual carefully before installing, operating, or servicing unit. Read the safety information at the beginning of the manual and in each section. Use only genuine replacement parts from the manufacturer. Perform maintenance and service according to the Owner’s Manuals, industry standards, and national, state, and local codes. H.F. RADIATION can cause interference. FLYING SPARKS can injure. Wear a face shield to protect eyes and face. Shape tungsten electrode only on grinder with proper guards in a safe location wearing proper face, hand, and body protection. Sparks can cause fires — keep flammables away. STATIC (ESD) can damage PC boards. Put on grounded wrist strap BEFORE handling boards or parts. Use proper static-proof bags and boxes to store, move, or ship PC boards. ARC WELDING can cause interference. MOVING PARTS can injure. Keep away from moving parts. Keep away from pinch points such as drive rolls. WELDING WIRE can injure. Do not press gun trigger until instructed to do so. Do not point gun toward any part of the body, other people, or any metal when threading welding wire. High-frequency (H.F.) can interfere with radio navigation, safety services, computers, and communications equipment. Have only qualified persons familiar with electronic equipment perform this installation. The user is responsible for having a qualified electrician promptly correct any interference problem resulting from the installation. If notified by the FCC about interference, stop using the equipment at once. Have the installation regularly checked and maintained. Keep high-frequency source doors and panels tightly shut, keep spark gaps at correct setting, and use grounding and shielding to minimize the possibility of interference. Electromagnetic energy can interfere with sensitive electronic equipment such as computers and computer-driven equipment such as robots. Be sure all equipment in the welding area is electromagnetically compatible. To reduce possible interference, keep weld cables as short as possible, close together, and down low, such as on the floor. Locate welding operation 100 meters from any sensitive electronic equipment. Be sure this welding machine is installed and grounded according to this manual. If interference still occurs, the user must take extra measures such as moving the welding machine, using shielded cables, using line filters, or shielding the work area. OM-2242 Page 3 1-4.

EMF Information Electric current flowing through any conductor causes localized electric and magnetic fields (EMF). Welding current creates an EMF field around the welding circuit and welding equipment. EMF fields may interfere with some medical implants, e.g. pacemakers. Protective measures for persons wearing medical implants have to be taken. For example, restrict access for passers−by or conduct individual risk assessment for welders. All welders should use the following procedures in order to minimize exposure to EMF fields from the welding circuit: 1. Keep cables close together by twisting or taping them, or using a cable cover. 2. Do not place your body between welding cables. Arrange cables to one side and away from the operator. 3.

Dangers relatifs au soudage à l’arc Les symboles représentés ci-dessous sont utilisés dans ce manuel pour attirer l’attention et identifier les dangers possibles. En présence de l’un de ces symboles, prendre garde et suivre les instructions afférentes pour éviter tout risque. Les instructions en matière de sécurité indiquées ci-dessous ne constituent qu’un sommaire des instructions de sécurité plus complètes fournies dans les normes de sécurité énumérées dans la Section 2-5. Lire et observer toutes les normes de sécurité. Seul un personnel qualifié est autorisé à installer, faire fonctionner, entretenir et réparer cet appareil. Pendant le fonctionnement, maintenir à distance toutes les personnes, notamment les enfants de l’appareil. UNE DÉCHARGE ÉLECTRIQUE peut entraîner la mort. Le contact d’organes électriques sous tension peut provoquer des accidents mortels ou des brûlures graves. Le circuit de l’électrode et de la pièce est sous tension lorsque le courant est délivré à la sortie. Le circuit d’alimentation et les circuits internes de la machine sont également sous tension lorsque l’alimentation est sur Marche. Dans le mode de soudage avec du fil, le fil, le dérouleur, le bloc de commande du rouleau et toutes les parties métalliques en contact avec le fil sont sous tension électrique. Un équipement installé ou mis à la terre de manière incorrecte ou impropre constitue un danger. Ne pas toucher aux pièces électriques sous tension. Porter des gants isolants et des vêtements de protection secs et sans trous. S’isoler de la pièce à couper et du sol en utilisant des housses ou des tapis assez grands afin d’éviter tout contact physique avec la pièce à couper ou le sol. Ne pas se servir de source électrique à courant électrique dans les zones humides, dans les endroits confinés ou là où on risque de tomber. Se servir d’une source électrique à courant électrique UNIQUEMENT si le procédé de soudage le demande. Si l’utilisation d’une source électrique à courant électrique s’avère nécessaire, se servir de la fonction de télécommande si l’appareil en est équipé. D’autres consignes de sécurité sont nécessaires dans les conditions suivantes : risques électriques dans un environnement humide ou si l’on porte des vêtements mouillés ; sur des structures métalliques telles que sols, grilles ou échafaudages ; en position coincée comme assise, à genoux ou couchée ; ou s’il y a un risque élevé de contact inévitable ou accidentel avec la pièce à souder ou le sol. Dans ces conditions, utiliser les équipements suivants, dans l’ordre indiqué : 1) un poste à souder DC à tension constante (à fil), 2) un poste à souder DC manuel (électrode) ou 3) un poste à souder AC à tension à vide réduite. Dans la plupart des situations, l’utilisation d’un poste à souder DC à fil à tension constante est recommandée. En outre, ne pas travailler seul ! Couper l’alimentation ou arrêter le moteur avant de procéder à l’installation, à la réparation ou à l’entretien de l’appareil. Déverrouiller l’alimentation selon la norme OSHA 29 CFR 1910.147 (voir normes de sécurité). Installez, mettez à la terre et utilisez correctement cet équipement conformément à son Manuel d’Utilisation et aux réglementations nationales, gouvernementales et locales. Toujours vérifier la terre du cordon d’alimentation. Vérifier et s’assurer que le fil de terre du cordon d’alimentation est bien raccordé à la borne de terre du sectionneur ou que la fiche du cordon est raccordée à une prise correctement mise à la terre. En effectuant les raccordements d’entrée, fixer d’abord le conducteur de mise à la terre approprié et contre-vérifier les connexions. Les câbles doivent être exempts d’humidité, d’huile et de graisse; protégez−les contre les étincelles et les pièces métalliques chaudes. Vérifier fréquemment le cordon d’alimentation afin de s’assurer qu’il n’est pas altéré ou à nu, le remplacer immédiatement s’il l’est. Un fil à nu peut entraîner la mort. L’équipement doit être hors tension lorsqu’il n’est pas utilisé. Ne pas utiliser des câbles usés, endommagés, de grosseur insuffisante ou mal épissés. Ne pas enrouler les câbles autour du corps. Si la pièce soudée doit être mise à la terre, le faire directement avec un câble distinct. Ne pas toucher l’électrode quand on est en contact avec la pièce, la terre ou une électrode provenant d’une autre machine. Ne pas toucher des porte électrodes connectés à deux machines en même temps à cause de la présence d’une tension à vide doublée. N’utiliser qu’un matériel en bon état. Réparer ou remplacer sur-lechamp les pièces endommagées. Entretenir l’appareil conformément à ce manuel. Porter un harnais de sécurité si l’on doit travailler au-dessus du sol. S’assurer que tous les panneaux et couvercles sont correctement en place. Fixer le câble de retour de façon à obtenir un bon contact métalmétal avec la pièce à souder ou la table de travail, le plus près possible de la soudure. Isoler la pince de masse quand pas mis à la pièce pour éviter le contact avec tout objet métallique. Ne pas raccorder plus d’une électrode ou plus d’un câble de masse à une même borne de sortie de soudage. Débrancher le câble pour le procédé non utilisé. OM-2242 Page 5 Il reste une TENSION DC NON NÉGLIGEABLE dans les sources de soudage onduleur UNE FOIS l’alimentation coupée. Arrêter les convertisseurs, débrancher le courant électrique et décharger les condensateurs d’alimentation selon les instructions indiquées dans la partie Entretien avant de toucher les pièces. LES PIÈCES CHAUDES peuvent provoquer des brûlures. Ne pas toucher à mains nues les parties chaudes. Prévoir une période de refroidissement avant de travailler à l’équipement. Ne pas toucher aux pièces chaudes, utiliser les outils recommandés et porter des gants de soudage et des vêtements épais pour éviter les brûlures. LE SOUDAGE peut provoquer un incendie ou une explosion. Le soudage effectué sur des conteneurs fermés tels que des réservoirs, tambours ou des conduites peut provoquer leur éclatement. Des étincelles peuvent être projetées de l’arc de soudure. La projection d’étincelles, des pièces chaudes et des équipements chauds peut provoquer des incendies et des brûlures. Le contact accidentel de l’électrode avec des objets métalliques peut provoquer des étincelles, une explosion, un surchauffement ou un incendie. Avant de commencer le soudage, vérifier et s’assurer que l’endroit ne présente pas de danger. Déplacer toutes les substances inflammables à une distance de 10,7 m de l’arc de soudage. En cas d’impossibilité les recouvrir soigneusement avec des protections homologués. Ne pas souder dans un endroit là où des étincelles peuvent tomber sur des substances inflammables. LES FUMÉES ET LES GAZ peuvent être dangereux. Se protéger et d’autres personnes de la projection d’étincelles et de métal chaud. Le soudage génère des fumées et des gaz. Leur inhalation peut être dangereux pour votre santé. Des étincelles et des matériaux chauds du soudage peuvent facilement passer dans d’autres zones en traversant de petites fissures et des ouvertures. Eloigner votre tête des fumées. Ne pas respirer les fumées. Surveiller tout déclenchement d’incendie et tenir un extincteur à proximité. À l’intérieur, ventiler la zone et/ou utiliser une ventilation forcée au niveau de l’arc pour l’évacuation des fumées et des gaz de soudage. Le soudage effectué sur un plafond, plancher, paroi ou séparation peut déclencher un incendie de l’autre côté. Si la ventilation est médiocre, porter un respirateur anti-vapeurs approuvé. Lire et comprendre les spécifications de sécurité des matériaux (MSDS) et les instructions du fabricant concernant les métaux, les consommables, les revêtements, les nettoyants et les dégraisseurs. Travailler dans un espace fermé seulement s’il est bien ventilé ou en portant un respirateur à alimentation d’air. Demander toujours à un surveillant dûment formé de se tenir à proximité. Des fumées et des gaz de soudage peuvent déplacer l’air et abaisser le niveau d’oxygène provoquant des blessures ou des accidents mortels. S’assurer que l’air de respiration ne présente aucun danger. Ne pas souder dans des endroits situés à proximité d’opérations de dégraissage, de nettoyage ou de pulvérisation. La chaleur et les rayons de l’arc peuvent réagir en présence de vapeurs et former des gaz hautement toxiques et irritants. Ne pas souder des métaux munis d’un revêtement, tels que l’acier galvanisé, plaqué en plomb ou au cadmium à moins que le revêtement n’ait été enlevé dans la zone de soudure, que l’endroit soit bien ventilé, et en portant un respirateur à alimentation d’air. Les revêtements et tous les métaux renfermant ces éléments peuvent dégager des fumées toxiques en cas de soudage. LES RAYONS DE L’ARC peuvent provoquer des brûlures dans les yeux et sur la peau. Le rayonnement de l’arc du procédé de soudage génère des rayons visibles et invisibles intense (ultraviolets et infrarouges) susceptibles de provoquer des brûlure dans les yeux et sur la peau. Des étincelles sont projetées pendant le soudage. Porter un casque de soudage approuvé muni de verres filtrants approprié pour protéger visage et yeux pour protéger votre visage et vos yeux pendant le soudage ou pour regarder (voir ANSI Z49.1 et Z87.1 énuméré dans les normes de sécurité). Porter des lunettes de sécurité avec écrans latéraux même sous votre casque. Avoir recours à des écrans protecteurs ou à des rideaux pour protéger les autres contre les rayonnements les éblouissements et les étincelles ; prévenir toute personne sur les lieux de ne pas regarder l’arc. Porter des vêtements confectionnés avec des matières résistantes et ignifuges (cuir, coton lourd ou laine) et des bottes de protection. OM-2242 Page 6 Ne pas effectuer le soudage sur des conteneurs fermés tels que des réservoirs, tambours, ou conduites, à moins qu’ils n’aient été préparés correctement conformément à AWS F4.1 et AWS A6.0 (voir les Normes de Sécurité). Ne soudez pas si l’air ambiant est chargé de particules, gaz, ou vapeurs inflammables (vapeur d’essence, par exemple). Brancher le câble de masse sur la pièce le plus près possible de la zone de soudage pour éviter le transport du courant sur une longue distance par des chemins inconnus éventuels en provoquant des risques d’électrocution, d’étincelles et d’incendie. Ne pas utiliser le poste de soudage pour dégeler des conduites gelées. En cas de non utilisation, enlever la baguette d’électrode du porteélectrode ou couper le fil à la pointe de contact. Porter des vêtements de protection dépourvus d’huile tels que des gants en cuir, une chemise en matériau lourd, des pantalons sans revers, des chaussures hautes et un couvre chef. Avant de souder, retirer toute substance combustible de vos poches telles qu’un allumeur au butane ou des allumettes. Une fois le travail achevé, assurez−vous qu’il ne reste aucune trace d’étincelles incandescentes ni de flammes. Utiliser exclusivement des fusibles ou coupe−circuits appropriés. Ne pas augmenter leur puissance; ne pas les ponter. Une fois le travail achevé, assurez−vous qu’il ne reste aucune trace d’étincelles incandescentes ni de flammes. Utiliser exclusivement des fusibles ou coupe−circuits appropriés. Ne pas augmenter leur puissance; ne pas les ponter. Suivre les recommandations dans OSHA 1910.252(a)(2)(iv) et NFPA 51B pour les travaux à chaud et avoir de la surveillance et un extincteur à proximité. DES PIECES DE METAL ou DES SALETES peuvent provoquer des blessures dans les yeux. Le soudage, l’écaillement, le passage de la pièce à la brosse en fil de fer, et le meulage génèrent des étincelles et des particules métalliques volantes. Pendant la période de refroidissement des soudures, elles risquent de projeter du laitier. Porter des lunettes de sécurité avec écrans latéraux ou un écran facial. LES ACCUMULATIONS DE GAZ risquent de provoquer des blessures ou même la mort. Fermer l’alimentation du gaz comprimé en cas de non utilisation. Veiller toujours à bien aérer les espaces confinés ou se servir d’un respirateur d’adduction d’air homologué. Les CHAMPS ÉLECTROMAGNÉTIQUES (CEM) peuvent affecter les implants médicaux. Les porteurs de stimulateurs cardiaques et autres implants médicaux doivent rester à distance. Les porteurs d’implants médicaux doivent consulter leur médecin et le fabricant du dispositif avant de s’approcher de la zone où se déroule du soudage à l’arc, du soudage par points, du gougeage, de la découpe plasma ou une opération de chauffage par induction. LE BRUIT peut endommager l’ouïe. Le bruit des processus et des équipements peut affecter l’ouïe. Porter des protections approuvées pour les oreilles si le niveau sonore est trop élevé. LES BOUTEILLES peuvent exploser si elles sont endommagées. Les bouteilles de gaz comprimé contiennent du gaz sous haute pression. Si une bouteille est endommagée, elle peut exploser. Du fait que les bouteilles de gaz font normalement partie du procédé de soudage, les manipuler avec précaution. Protéger les bouteilles de gaz comprimé d’une chaleur excessive, des chocs mécaniques, des dommages physiques, du laitier, des flammes ouvertes, des étincelles et des arcs. Placer les bouteilles debout en les fixant dans un support stationnaire ou dans un porte-bouteilles pour les empêcher de tomber ou de se renverser. Tenir les bouteilles éloignées des circuits de soudage ou autres circuits électriques. Ne jamais placer une torche de soudage sur une bouteille à gaz. Une électrode de soudage ne doit jamais entrer en contact avec une bouteille. Ne jamais souder une bouteille pressurisée − risque d’explosion. Utiliser seulement des bouteilles de gaz comprimé, régulateurs, tuyaux et raccords convenables pour cette application spécifique; les maintenir ainsi que les éléments associés en bon état. Détourner votre visage du détendeur-régulateur lorsque vous ouvrez la soupape de la bouteille. Le couvercle du détendeur doit toujours être en place, sauf lorsque la bouteille est utilisée ou qu’elle est reliée pour usage ultérieur. Utiliser les équipements corrects, les bonnes procédures et suffisamment de personnes pour soulever et déplacer les bouteilles. Lire et suivre les instructions sur les bouteilles de gaz comprimé, l’équipement connexe et le dépliant P-1 de la CGA (Compressed Gas Association) mentionné dans les principales normes de sécurité. 2-3. Dangers supplémentaires en relation avec l’installation, le fonctionnement et la maintenance Risque D’INCENDIE OU D’EXPLOSION. Ne pas placer l’appareil sur, au-dessus ou à proximité de surfaces inflammables. Ne pas installer l’appareil à proximité de produits inflammables. Ne pas surcharger l’installation électrique − s’assurer que l’alimentation est correctement dimensionnée et protégée avant de mettre l’appareil en service. LA CHUTE DE L’ÉQUIPEMENT peut provoquer des blessures. Utiliser l’anneau de levage uniquement pour soulever l’appareil, NON PAS les chariots, les bouteilles de gaz ou tout autre accessoire. Utiliser un équipement de levage de capacité suffisante pour lever l’appareil. En utilisant des fourches de levage pour déplacer l’unité, s’assurer que les fourches sont suffisamment longues pour dépasser du côté opposé de l’appareil. Tenir l’équipement (câbles et cordons) à distance des véhicules mobiles lors de toute opération en hauteur. Suivre les consignes du Manuel des applications pour l’équation de levage NIOSH révisée (Publication Nº94–110) lors du levage manuelle de pièces ou équipements lourds. L’EMPLOI EXCESSIF peut SURCHAUFFER L’ÉQUIPEMENT. Prévoir une période de refroidissement ; respecter le cycle opératoire nominal. Réduire le courant ou le facteur de marche avant de poursuivre le soudage. Ne pas obstruer les passages d’air du poste. LES ÉTINCELLES PROJETÉES peuvent provoquer des blessures. Porter un écran facial pour protéger le visage et les yeux. Affûter l’électrode au tungstène uniquement à la meuleuse dotée de protecteurs. Cette manœuvre est à exécuter dans un endroit sûr lorsque l’on porte l’équipement homologué de protection du visage, des mains et du corps. Les étincelles risquent de causer un incendie − éloigner toute substance inflammable. LES CHARGES ÉLECTROSTATIQUES peuvent endommager les circuits imprimés. Établir la connexion avec la barrette de terre avant de manipuler des cartes ou des pièces. Utiliser des pochettes et des boîtes antistatiques pour stocker, déplacer ou expédier des cartes de circuits imprimes. OM-2242 Page 7 Les PIÈCES MOBILES peuvent causer des blessures. LE RAYONNEMENT HAUTE FRÉQUENCE (H.F.) risque de provoquer des interférences. Ne pas s’approcher des organes mobiles. Ne pas s’approcher des points de coincement tels que des rouleaux de commande. Le rayonnement haute fréquence (H.F.) peut provoquer des interférences avec les équipements de radio−navigation et de communication, les services de sécurité et les ordinateurs. LES FILS DE SOUDAGE peuvent provoquer des blessures. Ne pas appuyer sur la gâchette avant d’en avoir reçu l’instruction. Ne pas diriger le pistolet vers soi, d’autres personnes ou toute pièce mécanique en engageant le fil de soudage. L’EXPLOSION DE LA BATTERIE peut provoquer des blessures. Ne pas utiliser l’appareil de soudage pour charger des batteries ou faire démarrer des véhicules à l’aide de câbles de démarrage, sauf si l’appareil dispose d’une fonctionnalité de charge de batterie destinée à cet usage. Demander seulement à des personnes qualifiées familiarisées avec des équipements électroniques de faire fonctionner l’installation. L’utilisateur est tenu de faire corriger rapidement par un électricien qualifié les interférences résultant de l’installation. Si le FCC signale des interférences, arrêter immédiatement l’appareil. Effectuer régulièrement le contrôle et l’entretien de l’installation. Maintenir soigneusement fermés les portes et les panneaux des sources de haute fréquence, maintenir les éclateurs à une distance correcte et utiliser une terre et un blindage pour réduire les interférences éventuelles. Les PIÈCES MOBILES peuvent causer des blessures. S’abstenir de toucher des organes mobiles tels que des ventilateurs. Maintenir fermés et verrouillés les portes, panneaux, recouvrements et dispositifs de protection. Lorsque cela est nécessaire pour des travaux d’entretien et de dépannage, faire retirer les portes, panneaux, recouvrements ou dispositifs de protection uniquement par du personnel qualifié. Remettre les portes, panneaux, recouvrements ou dispositifs de protection quand l’entretien est terminé et avant de rebrancher l’alimentation électrique. LIRE LES INSTRUCTIONS.

Electrical Service Guide For 230 VAC The Auto-Line circuitry in this unit automatically adapts the power source to the primary voltage being applied. Check input voltage available at site. This unit can be connected to any input power between 120−230 VAC without removing the cover to relink the power source. Actual input voltage should not exceed 10% of indicated required input voltage. If actual input voltage is outside of this range, output may not be available. Failure to follow these electrical service guide recommendations could create an electric shock or fire hazard. These recommendations are for a dedicated circuit sized for the rated output and duty cycle of the welding power source. In dedicated circuit installations, the National Electrical Code (NEC) allows the receptacle or conductor rating to be less than the rating of the circuit protection device. All components of the circuit must be physically compatible. See NEC articles 210.21, 630.11, and 630.12. 50/60 Hz Single Phase 230 Input Voltage (V) 13.1 Input Amperes (A) At Rated Output Max Recommended Standard Fuse Rating In Amperes Time-Delay Fuses 2 15 3 20 Normal Operating Fuses Min Input Conductor Size In AWG 1 4 14 91 (28) Max Recommended Input Conductor Length In Feet (Meters) Min Grounding Conductor Size In AWG 4 14 Reference: 2011 National Electrical Code (NEC) (including article 630) 1 If a circuit breaker is used in place of a fuse, choose a circuit breaker with time-current curves comparable to the recommended fuse. 2 “Time-Delay” fuses are UL class “RK5” . See UL 248. 3 “Normal Operating” (general purpose - no intentional delay) fuses are UL class “K5” (up to and including 60 amps), and UL class “H” ( 65 amps and above). 4 Conductor data in this section specifies conductor size (excluding flexible cord or cable) between the panelboard and the equipment per NEC Table 310.15(B)(16). If a flexible cord or cable is used, minimum conductor size may increase. See NEC Table 400.5(A) for flexible cord and cable requirements. 4-8.
