MAINTENANCE
1. Disconnect input plug or power before maintain or repair on machine.
2. Be sure input ground wire is properly connect to a
ground terminal
3. Check whether the inner gas-electricity connection is well (esp. the plugs),
and Tighten
the loose connection; If there is oxidization, remove it with sand paper and then
re-connect.
4. Keep hands, hands, hair, loose clothing, and tools away from moving parts such as
fans, wires.
5. Clear the dust at regular intervals with clean and dry compressed air; if the working
condition has heavy smoke and pollution, the welding machine should be cleaned once
a month.
6. The compressed air should be reduced to the required pressure lest the little parts in
the welding machine be damaged.
7. To avoid water and rain,
if there is, dry it in time, and check the insulation with
mega-meter (including that between the connection and that between the case and
the connection) only when there is no abnormal phenomena can the welding continue.
8. If the machine is not used for longtime, put it into the original packing in dry
condition.
