SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS AND WARNINGS

!

  WARNING

PROTECT YOURSELF AND OTHERS FROM POSSIBLE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. KEEP CHILDREN 

AWAY. PACEMAKER WEARERS KEEP AWAY UNTIL CONSULTING YOUR DOCTOR. DO NOT LOSE THESE 

INSTRUCTIONS. READ OPERATING/INSTRUCTION MANUAL BEFORE INSTALLING, OPERATING OR 

SERVICING THIS EQUIPMENT.

Welding products and welding processes can cause serious injury or death, or damage to other equipment or 

property, if the operator does not strictly observe all safety rules and take precautionary actions.
Safe practices have developed from past experience in the use of welding and cutting. These practices must be 

learned through study and training before using this equipment.  Some of these practices apply to equipment 

connected to power lines; other practices apply to engine driven equipment.  Anyone not having extensive 

training in welding and cutting practices should not attempt to weld. 
Safe practices are outlined in the Australian Standard AS1674.2-2007 entitled: Safety in welding and allied 

processes Part 2: Electrical. This publication and other guides to what you should learn before operating 

this equipment are listed at the end of these safety precautions. 

HAVE ALL INSTALLATION, OPERATION, 

MAINTENANCE, AND REPAIR WORK PERFORMED ONLY BY QUALIFIED PEOPLE.

  WARNING 

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. 

1.  Do not touch live electrical parts.
2.  Wear dry, hole-free insulating gloves and body protection.
3.  Insulate yourself from work and ground using dry insulating mats or covers.
4.  Disconnect input power or stop engine before installing or servicing this equipment. Lock input power 

disconnect switch open, or remove line fuses so power cannot be turned on accidentally.

5.  Properly install and ground this equipment according to its Owner’s Manual and national, state, and local 

codes.

6.  Turn off all equipment when not in use. Disconnect power to equipment if it will be left unattended or out of 

service.

7.  Use fully insulated electrode holders. Never dip holder in water to cool it or lay it down on the ground or the 

work surface. Do not touch holders connected to two welding machines at the same time or touch other 

people with the holder or electrode.

8.  Do not use worn, damaged, undersized, or poorly spliced cables.
9.  Do not wrap cables around your body.
