INSTRUCTION MANUAL FOR WIRE WELDING MACHINE
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.
1 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WELDING AND ARC CUTTING CAN BE HARM-
FUL TO YOURSELF AND OTHERS. The user
must therefore be educated against the hazards, summarized
below, deriving from welding operations. For more detailed in-
formation, order the manual code 3.300.758
ELECTRIC AND MAGNETIC FIELDS - May be dangerous.
· Electric current following through any conduc-
tor causes localized Electric and Magnetic
Fields (EMF). Welding/cutting current creates
EMF fi elds around cables and power sources.
· The magnetic fi elds created by high currents
may affect the operation of pacemakers. Wearers of vital elec-
tronic equipment (pacemakers) shall consult their physician
before beginning any arc welding, cutting, gouging or spot
welding operations.
· Exposure to EMF fi elds 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 fi elds from the welding/cutting cir-
cuit:
- 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 pres-
sure, 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 instruc-
tions contained in the standard IEC 60974-10 (CL. A), and must
be used solely for professional purposes in an industrial envi-
ronment. There may be potential diffi culties in ensuring elec-
tromagnetic compatibility in non-industrial environments.
H.F FREQUENCY
• High frequency (H.F.) can interfere with radio
navigation, safety services, computers, and
communications equipment
• Have only qualifi ed persons familiar with
electronic equipment perform this installation.
• The user is responsible for having a qualifi ed electrician
promptly correct any interference problem resulting from
the installation.
• If notifi ed 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 ground-
ing and shielding to minimize the possibility of interference.
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 Electron-
ic 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 representa-
tive. By applying this European Directive you will improve
the environment and human health!
IN CASE OF MALFUNCTIONS, REQUEST ASSISTANCE
FROM QUALIFIED PERSONNEL.
