4. MAINTENANCE OPERATIONS. RECOMMENDATIONS.
In order for the equipment to have a long life we must follow some essential rules for maintenance and
use. Abide by these recommendations.
CORRECT MAINTENANCE OF THE EQUIPMENT WILL AVOID A GREAT PERCENTAGE OF FAULTS.
4.1 MACHINE MAINTENANCE. GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS.
Before carrying out any operation on the machine or gun, we must place switch J of the equipment in "O"
position of machine disconnected.
Specialized personnel must handle the machine to carry out maintenance and repair operations
.
)
BLOW THE INSIDE OF THE MACHINE WITH COMPRESSED AIR FROM TIME TO TIME.
The accumulation of metal dust on the inside is one of the main causes of breakdowns in this type of
equipment as they are subject to a great amount of pollution. As an essential measure, the equipment must be
kept separate from the welding place, not placing it a short distance away. Keeping the machine clean and
dry is essential. The inside must be blown as required. We must avoid any anomaly or deterioration due to the
accumulation of dust. Blow the inside of the equipment with clean dry compressed air.
)
LOCATE THE EQUIPMENT IN A PLACE WHERE CLEAN AIR IS CONSTANTLY REPLACED.
The machine ventilations must be kept free. It must be located in a place where clean air is renewed.
)
KEEP THE MACHINE PANELS CLOSED.
)
DO NOT DISCONNECT THE MACHINE IF IT IS HOT.
If you have finished the work do not disconnect the machine immediately, wait until the inner cooling
system has totally cooled it.
)
KEEP THE WELDING GUN IN GOOD CONDITIONS FOR USE.
A damaged or worn gun can cause inefficient welding.
)
WHEN FINISHING THE WELDING OPERATION MAKE SURE THAT THE TORCH CATCH IS
UNLOCKED.
(If mechanical lock guns are used)
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR REDUCING ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY (CEM) PROBLEMS.
The user is responsible for the installation and use of the welding material according to the instructions in this manual and the following
recommendations.
Before installing the welding material, the presence of the following in the surrounding area must be kept in mind:
•
Wiring for power, control, signalling, and telephones.
•
Radio and television receivers and transmitters.
•
Computers and other control equipment.
•
Critical security equipment.
•
People with pace makers or hearing aids.
•
Measurement and calibration equipment.
In order to reduce EMC problems, keep in mind the time of day when welding or other activities will be carried out. Move possible
interference victims away from the welding installation.
ALWAYS CONNECT THE MACHINE TO POWER USING AN EFFICIENT EARTH TAP.
IF PROTECTIVE DEVICES OR SUPPLEMENTARY ELECTRICAL SYSTEM FILTERS ARE NEEDED, CONSULT OUR TECHNICAL SERVICE.
PERFORM THE MAINTENANCE OPERATIONS DESCRIBED IN THIS MANUAL.
USE THE SHORTEST WELDING WIRES POSSIBLE AND KEEP THEM PLACED NEXT TO EACH OTHER NEAR THE FLOOR.
IF THE WELDING PIECE IS GROUNDED, KEEP IN MIND OPERATOR SAFETY AND NATIONAL REGULATIONS
