IMPORTANT
: BEFORE STARTING THE
EQUIPMENT, READ THE CONTENTS OF THIS
MANUAL, WHICH MUST BE STORED IN A PLACE
FAMILIAR TO ALL USERS FOR THE ENTIRE
OPERATIVE LIFE-SPAN OF THE MACHINE. THIS
EQUIPMENT MUST BE USED SOLELY FOR
WELDING OPERATIONS.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS.
WELDING AND ARC CUTTING CAN BE
HARMFUL TO YOURSELF
AND OTHERS.
•
The user must therefore be
educated against the hazards, summarized below,
deriving from welding operations. For more detailed
information, order the manual code 3.300.758.
ELECTRIC SHOCK - May be fatal.
•
Install and earth the welding machine
according to the applicable regulations.
•
Do not touch live electrical parts or
electrodes with bare skin, gloves or wet
clothing.
•
Isolate yourselves from both the earth and the
workpiece.
•
Make sure your working position is safe.
FUMES AND GASES - May be hazardous to your
health.
•
Keep your head away from fumes.
•
Work in the presence of adequate
ventilation, and use ventilators around the arc
to prevent gases from forming in the work area.
ARC RAYS - May injure the eyes and burn the skin.
•
Protect your eyes with welding masks fitted
with filtered lenses, and protect your body
with appropriate safety garments.
•
Protect others by installing adequate shields or
curtains.
RISK OF FIRE AND BURNS.
•
Sparks (splatters) may cause fires and burn
the skin; you should therefore make sure
there are no flammable materials in the area,
and wear appropriate protective garments.
NOISE.
•
This machine does not directly produce
noise exceeding 80dB. The plasma
cutting/welding procedure may produce
noise levels beyond said limit; users must therefore
implement all precautions required by law.
ELECTRIC AND MAGNETIC FIELDS - May be
dangerous.
•
Electric current following through any
conductor causes localized Electric and
Magnetic Fields (EMF). Welding/cutting
current creates EMF fields around cables
and power sources.
•
The magnetic fields created by high currents may
affect the operation of pacemakers. Wearers of vital
electronic equipment (pacemakers) shall consult their
physician before beginning any arc welding, cutting,
gouging or spot welding operations.
•
Exposure to EMF fields in welding/cutting may have
other health effects which are now not known.
•
All operators should use the followingprocedures in
order to minimize exposure to EMF fields from the
welding/cutting circuit:
- Route the electrode and work cables together –
Secure them with tape when possible.
- Never coil the electrode/torch lead around your
body.
- Do not place your body between the
electrode/torch lead and work cables. If the
electrode/torch lead cable is on your right side, the
work cable should also be on your right side.
- Connect the work cable to the workpiece as close
as possible to the area being welded/cut.
- Do not work next to welding/cutting power source.
EXPLOSIONS.
•
Do not weld in the vicinity of containers
under pressure, or in the presence of
explosive dust, gases or fumes.
• All cylinders and pressure regulators used
in welding operations should be handled with care.
ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY.
This machine is manufactured in compliance with the
instructions contained in the harmonized standard IEC
60974-10 (CL.A),
and must be used solely for
professional purposes in an industrial environment.
There may be potential difficulties in ensuring
electromagnetic compatibility in non-industrial
environments.
DISPOSAL OF ELECTRICAL AND ELECTRONIC
EQUIPMENT.
•
Do not dispose of electrical equipment
together with normal waste!
•
In observance of European Directive
2002/96/EC on Waste Electrical and
Electronic Equipment and its implementation
in accordance with national law, electrical equipment
that has reached the end of its life must be collected
separately and returned to an environmentally
compatible recycling facility. As the owner of the
equipment, you should get information on approved
collection systems from our local representative. By
applying this European Directive you will improve the
environment and human health!
IN CASE OF MALFUNCTIONS, REQUEST
ASSISTANCE FROM QUALIFIED PERSONNEL
