 WARNING 

 

Hazards due to improper usage! 

The machine has been constructed to the state of the art and any regulations and stand-

ards applicable for use in industry and trade. It may only be used for the welding proce-

dures indicated at the rating plate. Hazards may arise for persons, animals and material 

objects if the equipment is not used correctly. No liability is accepted for any damages 

arising from improper usage! 

•  The equipment must only be used in line with its designated purpose and by trained or 

expert personnel! 

•  Do not improperly modify or convert the equipment! 

 

3.1  Applications 

Arc welding machine for MMA DC welding with TIG DC welding with lift arc (touch starting) as secondary 

process. 

3.1.1  Demagnetize function (degaussing) 

The degaussing of ferromagnetic workpieces in welding technology is intended to reduce arc deflection, 

arc instability, uneven droplet detachment, spatter and irregular flank connections. 

3.2  Documents which also apply 

3.2.1  Warranty 

For more information refer to the "Warranty registration" brochure supplied and our information regarding 

warranty, maintenance and testing at 

www.ewm-group.com

! 

3.2.2  Declaration of Conformity 

 

 

This product corresponds in its design and construction to the EU directives listed in the decla-

ration. The product comes with a relevant declaration of conformity in the original. 

The manufacturer recommends carrying out the safety inspection according to national and in-

ternational standards and guidelines every 12 months. 

 

 

3.2.3  Welding in environments with increased electrical hazards 

 

 

 

Power sources with this marking can be used for welding in an environment with increased 

electrical hazard (e.g. boilers). For this purpose, appropriate national or international regulations 

must be followed. The power source must not be placed in the danger zone! 

 

3.2.4  Calibration/Validation 

An original certificate is enclosed with the product. The manufacturer recommends calibration / validation 

at intervals of 12 months.
