Everlast is dedicated to providing you with the best possible equipment and service to meet
the demanding jobs that you have. We want to go beyond delivering a satisfactory product to
you. That is the reason we offer technical support to assist you with your needs should an oc-
casion occur. With proper use and care your product should deliver years of trouble free ser-
vice.
Safe operation and proper maintenance is your responsibility.
We have compiled this operator
’
s manual to instruct you in basic safety, operation and
maintenance of your Everlast product to give you the best possible experience. Much of
welding and cutting is based upon experience and common sense. As thorough as this welding
manual may be, it is no substitute for either. Exercise extreme caution and care in all activities
related to welding or cutting. Your safety, health and even life depends upon it. While acci-
dents are never planned, preventing an accident requires careful planning.
Please carefully
read this manual before you operate your Everlast unit.
This manual is not only for the use
of the machine, but to assist in obtaining the best performance out of your unit. Do not op-
erate the unit until you have read this manual and you are thoroughly familiar with the safe
operation of the unit. If you feel you need more information please contact Everlast Support.
The warranty does not cover improper use, maintenance or consumables.
Do not attempt to
alter or defeat any piece or part of your unit, particularly any safety device.
Keep all shields
and covers in place during unit operation should an unlikely failure of internal components
result in the possible presence of sparks and explosions. If a failure occurs, discontinue fur-
ther use until malfunctioning parts or accessories have been repaired or replaced by qualified
personnel.
Note on High Frequency electromagnetic disturbances:
Certain welding and cutting processes generate High Frequency (HF) waves. These waves may
disturb sensitive electronic equipment such as televisions, radios, computers, cell phones, and
related equipment. High Frequency may also interfere with fluorescent lights. Consult with a
licensed
electrician if disturbance is noted. Sometimes, improper wire routing or poor shield-
ing may be the cause.
HF can interfere with pacemakers. See EMF warnings in following safety section for further
information. Always consult your physician before entering an area known to have welding or
cutting equipment if you have a pacemaker.
