Hazard conditions may be caused by electricity as well as by welding current.
It is illegal for non-professional electricians to handle parts that are directly connected to
the mains power supply, except in cases of pulling the mains plug and/or operating the
main power switch.
The device must be disconnected from the mains as soon as repair or service works is
needed. When leaving the place of work even for a short time, make sure that the
electrical outlet is blocked clearly.
Open circuit voltage is the highest and most dangerous voltage for welding current. The
highest permitted open circuit voltages are contained in your national and international
regulations according to the type of welding current, type of electrical source and the high
or low hazard levels at the workplace.
If you believe that operating the device is not possible without creating hazardous
conditions, then shut off the device and secure it against unauthorised use.
It is clear that a hazardous conditions are present when:
the device shows visible damage, or
or when functional errors occur
if it no longer functions properly.
Please follow relevant safety measures when handling gas bottles
PUK 3 can be operated in series using a mains voltage of 115V~
Yellow/green electric conductor = grounded terminal (PE) Other conductors L1 and N
are connected to phase and neutral of plug.
The welding device is set for 115 V ex works!
This means that it also may be operated using 110 volts due to its tolerance of +/- 15%.
Devices set to a different voltage than 115 V will be marked with a special sticker.
AUTHORIZED SERVICE PERSONNEL ONLY MAY OPEN THE DEVICE!
otherwise the manufacturer`s warrantee is invalid.
IF THE DEVICE HAS BEEN MADE FOR A SPECIAL VOLTAGE, THEN SEE THE
TECHNICAL DATA INDICATED ON THE DEVICE! THE POWER SWITCH MUST
CORRESPOND WITH THE MAIN VOLTAGE AND THE POWER RECEPTACLE OF
THE WELDING DEVICE. (See the technical data!)
PLEASE ENSURE THAT THE MAIN POWER BOX CAN SUPPORT THE USE OF THIS
DEVICE WITHOUT BLOWING A FUSE
USE ONLY THE PROVIDED POWER CONNECTORS!
