5.3 Transport and installation
CAUTION
Risk of accidents due to supply lines!
During transport, attached supply lines (mains leads, control cables, etc.) can cause
risks, e.g. by causing connected machines to tip over and injure persons!
• Disconnect all supply lines before transport!
5.3.1 Ambient conditions
Equipment damage due to contamination!
Unusually high amounts of dust, acids, corrosive gases or substances can damage the machine
(observe maintenance intervals > see 6.2 chapter).
• Avoid large amounts of smoke, steam, oily fumes, grinding dust and corrosive ambient air!
In operation
Temperature range of the ambient air:
• -10 °C to +40 °C (-13 F to 104 F)
[1]
Relative humidity:
• up to 50 % at 40 °C (104 F)
• up to 90 % at 20 °C (68 F)
Transport and storage
Storage in a closed area, temperature range of the ambient air:
• -25 °C to +55 °C (-13 F to 131 F)
[1]
Relative humidity
• up to 90 % at 20 °C (68 F)

Ambient temperature dependent on coolant! Observe the coolant temperature range of the torch coo-
ling
5.3.2 Welding torch cooling system
Material damage due to unsuitable coolants!
Unsuitable coolant, coolants mixed with other types / liquids or use in an unsuitable tempera-
ture range will result in material damage and loss of the manufacturer's warranty!
• Operation without coolant is not permitted! Dry running will destroy the cooling components
such as the coolant pump, welding torch and hose packages.
• Only use the coolants described in these instructions for the specified ambient conditions
(temperature range) > see 5.3.2.1 chapter.
• Do not mix coolants of different types (including those described in these instructions).
• When changing the coolant, all liquid must be replaced and the cooling system flushed.
Dispose of the coolant in accordance with local regulations and the material safety data sheets.
