Safety Precautions
These general safety norms cover both arc welding machines and plasma cutting machines unless otherwise noted.
The equipment must only be used for the purpose it was designed for. Using it in any other way could result in damage or injury and in breach of the safety rules.
Only suitably trained and competent persons should use the equipment. Operators should respect the safety of other persons.
Prevention against electric shock
The equipment should be installed by a qualified person and in accordance with current standards in operation.It is the users responsibility to ensure that the equipment is connected to a suitable power supply. Consult with your utility supplier if required
If earth grounding of the work piece is required, ground it directly with a separate cable.
Do not use the equipment with the covers removed.
Do not touch live electrical parts or parts which are electrically charged.
Turn o ff all equipment when not in use.
Cables (both primary supply and welding) should be regularly checked for damage and overheating. Do not use worn, damaged, under sized, or poorly jointed cables.
Ensure that you wear the correct protective clothing, gloves, head and eye protection.
Insulate yourself from work and ground using dry insulating mats or covers big enough to prevent any physical contact with the work ground.
Never touch the electrode if you are in contact with the work ground, or another electrode from a di ff erent machine.
Do not wrap cables over your body.
Ensure that you take additional safety precautions when you are welding in electrically hazardous conditions such as damp environments, wearing wet clothing, and metal structures. Try to avoid welding in cramped or restricted positions.
Ensure that the equipment is well maintained. Repair or replace damaged or defective parts immediately. Carry out any regular maintenance in accordance with the manufacturers instructions.
Safety against fumes and welding gases
Locate the equipment in a well-ventilated position.
Keep your head out of the fumes. Do not breathe the fumes.
Ensure the welding zone is in a well-ventilated area. If this is not possible provision should be made for suitable fume extraction.
If ventilation is poor, wear an approved respirator.
Read and understand the Material Safety Data Sheets
(MSDS’s) and the manufacturer’s instructions for metals, consumable, coatings, cleaners, and de-greasers.
Do not weld in locations near any de-greasing, cleaning, or spraying operations. Be aware that heat and rays of the arc can react with vapours to form highly toxic and irritating gases.
2
Do not weld on coated metals, unless the coating is removed from the weld area, the area is well ventilated, and while wearing an air-supplied respirator. The coatings on many metals can give o ff toxic fumes if welded.
Prevention against burns and radiation
Arc rays from the welding process produce intense, visible and invisible (ultraviolet and infrared) rays that can burn eyes and skin.
Wear an approved welding helmet fitted with a proper shade of filter lens to protect your face and eyes when welding or watching
Wear approved safety glasses with side shields under your helmet.
Never use broken or faulty welding helmets.
Always ensure there are adequate protective screens or barriers to protect others from flash, glare and sparks from the welding area. Ensure that there are adequate warnings that welding or cutting is taking place.
Wear suitable protective flame resistant clothing.
The sparks and spatter from welding, hot work pieces, and hot equipment can cause fires and burns
Welding on closed containers, such as tanks, drums, or pipes, can cause them to explode.
Accidental contact of electrode to metal objects can cause arcs, explosion, overheating, or fire.
Check and be sure the area is safe and clear of inflammable material before carrying out any welding.
Protection against noise
Some welding and cutting operations may produce noise.
Wear safety ear protection to protect your hearing.
Protection from moving parts
When the machine is in operation keep away from moving parts such as motors and fans. Moving parts, such as the fan, may cut fingers and hands and snag garments.
Protections and coverings may be removed for maintenance and controls only by qualified personnel, after first disconnecting the power supply cable.
Replace the coverings and protections and close all doors when the intervention is finished, and before starting the equipment.
Take care to avoid getting fingers trapped when loading and feeding wire during set up and operation.
When feeding wire be careful to avoid pointing it at other people or toward your body.
Always ensure machine covers and protective devices are in operation.
Precautions against fire and explosion
Avoid causing fires due to sparks and hot waste or molten metal
Ensure that appropriate fire safety devices are available near the cutting / welding area.
Remove all flammable and combustible materials from the cutting / welding zone and surrounding areas
Do not cut/weld fuel and lubricant containers, even if empty.
These must be carefully cleaned before they can be cut/ welded.
Always allow the cut/welded material to cool before touching it or placing it in contact with combustible or flammable material.
Do not work in atmospheres with high concentrations of combustible fumes, flammable gases and dust.
Always check the work area half an hour after cutting to make sure that no fires have begun.
Risks due to magnetic fields
The magnetic fields created by high currents may a ff ect the operation of pacemakers or electronically controlled medical equipment.
Wearers of vital electronic equipment should consult their physician before beginning any arc welding, cutting, gouging or spot welding operations.
Do not go near welding equipment with any sensitive electronic equipment as the magnetic fields may cause damage.

RF Declaration
Equipment that complies with directive 2004/108/EC concerning electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) and the technical requirements of EN60974-10 is designed for use in industrial buildings and not those for domestic use where electricity is provided via the low voltage public distribution system. Di ffi culties may arise in assuring class A electromagnetic compatibility for systems installed in domestic locations due to conducted and radiated emissions.
In the case of electromagnetic problems, it is the responsibility of the user to resolve the situation. It may be necessary to shield the equipment and fit suitable filters on the mains supply.
LF Declaration
Consult the data plate on the equipment for the power supply requirements.
Due to the elevated absorbance of the primary current from the power supply network, high power systems a ff ect the quality of power provided by the network. Consequently, connection restrictions or maximum impedance requirements permitted by the network at the public network connection point must be applied to these systems.
In this case the installer or the user is responsible for ensuring the equipment can be connected, consulting the electricity provider if necessary.
Materials and their disposal
Never allow the electrode, electrode holder or any other electrically “hot” parts to touch a cylinder.
Keep your head and face away from the cylinder valve outlet when opening the cylinder valve.
Always secure the cylinder safely
Never deface or alter any cylinder
The equipment is manufactured with materials, which do not contain any toxic or poisonous materials dangerous to the operator.
When the equipment is scrapped, it should be dismantled separating components according to the type of materials.
Do not dispose of the equipment with normal waste. The
European Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste Electrical and
Electronic Equipment states the electrical equipment that has reached its end of life must be collected separately and returned to an environmentally compatible recycling facility.
Handling of Compressed gas cylinders and regulators
All cylinders and pressure regulators used in welding operations should be handled with care.

Product Overview
The unique electronic structure and air channel design in this series of machines provides e ffi cient cooling of the power devices as well as improving the duty cycles of the machines. The design of the forced air-cooling system channel can e ff ectively prevent the power devices and control circuits from being damaged by the dust introduced into the machine by the fan. The reliability of the machine is greatly improved as a result. The streamline design means front and rear panels are naturally integrated via largeradian transition. The front and rear panels of the machine and the handle are coated with rubber oil*, giving the machine a very tactile and comfortable grip with an excellent appearance.
