Welding torch and workpiece line connection
CAUTION
Equipment damage due to improperly connected coolant lines!
If the coolant lines are not connected or a gas-cooled welding torch is used, the coolant
circuit is interrupted and equipment damage can occur.
• Connect all coolant lines correctly!
• When using a gas-cooled welding torch, add a tube bridge to the coolant circuit (see
chapter “Accessories”).
NOTE
Prepare welding torch according to the welding task in hand (see operating instructions
for the torch).
