D

Allow cooling period; follow rated duty cycle.

D

Reduce current or reduce duty cycle before
starting to weld again.

D

Do not block or filter airflow to unit.

STATIC (ESD) can damage PC  boards.

D

Put on grounded wrist strap BEFORE handling

MOVING PARTS can cause injury.

D

Keep away from moving parts.

D

Keep away from pinch points such as drive
rolls.

WELDING WIRE can cause injury.

D

welding wire.

MOVING PARTS can cause injury.

D

Keep away from moving parts such as fans.

D

Keep all doors, panels, covers, and guards

H.F. RADIATION can cause interference.

D

High-frequency (H.F.) can interfere with radio
navigation, safety services, computers, and
communications equipment.

D

Have only qualified persons familiar with
electronic equipment perform this installation.

D

The user is responsible for having a qualified electrician prompt-
ly correct any interference problem resulting from the installa-
tion.

D

If notified by the FCC about interference, stop using the
equipment at once.

D

Have the installation regularly checked and maintained.

D

Keep high-frequency source doors and panels tightly shut, keep
spark gaps at correct setting, and use grounding and shielding to
minimize the possibility of interference.

ARC WELDING can cause interference.

D

Electromagnetic energy can interfere with
sensitive electronic equipment such as
computers and computer-driven equipment
such as robots.

D

Be sure all equipment in the welding area is
electromagnetically compatible.

D

To reduce possible interference, keep weld cables as short as
possible, close together, and down low, such as on the floor.

D

Locate welding operation 100 meters from any sensitive elec-
tronic equipment.

D

Be sure this welding machine is installed and grounded
according to this manual.

D

If interference still occurs, the user must take extra measures
such as moving the welding machine, using shielded cables,
using line filters, or shielding the work area.
