switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
►
Disconnect the plug from the power
source and/or the battery pack from the
power tool before making any adjust-
ments ,changing accessories, or stor-
ing power tools.
Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the
power tool accidentally .
►
Store idle power tools out of the reach
of children and do not allow persons
unfamiliar with the power tool or these
instructions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of
untrained users.
►
Maintain power tools. Check for mis-
alignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts and any other con-
dition that may affect the power tool’s
operation. If damaged, have the power
tool repaired before use.
Many accidents
are caused by poorly maintained power
tools.
►
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools with
sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind
and are easier to control.
►
Use the power tool, accessories and
tool bits etc. in accordance with these
instructions, taking into account the
working conditions and the work to be
performed.
Use of the power tool for oper-
ations different from those intended could
result in a hazardous situation.
►
Keep handles and grasping surfaces
dry, clean and free from oil and grease.
Slippery handles and grasping surfaces do
not allow for safe handling and control of
the tool in unexpected situations.
Safety precautions when working
with an argon arc welding ma-
chine
►
Do not use the welding machine for any
purpose other than those speci
fi ed in this
manual.
►
Do not allow minors or unskilled persons
to use the welding machine.
►
In case of transferring the welding ma-
chine to other persons, tell in detail about
the rules of its operation and give them
this manual.
►
Avoid the presence of children, animals
and bystanders in the vicinity of the weld-
ing machine.
►
Do not immerse the welding machine in
water or other liquids, and also do not ex-
pose to rain or other atmospheric precipi-
tation.
►
It is forbidden to operate the welding ma-
chine near flammable liquids or gases.
It is forbidden to weld gas cylinders and
containers containing
fl ammable liquids or
their vapors, as well as containers under
pressure.
►
It is strongly discouraged to weld materials
cleaned with chlorine-based solvents.
►
Damaged or defective electrodes are not
recommended.
►
Make sure your network settings match
those speci
fi ed in this manual.
►
Before work, check the integrity of the ca-
bles and the welding machine, the normal
functioning of the current regulator and the
switch without load.
►
Before connecting to the mains, make sure
that the switch is in the off position.
►
Before turning on the device, make sure
that the electrode is correctly installed and
fi xed in the clamp, that the working surface
is securely fi xed, that the cable plugs are
installed and fixed in the connectors cor-
rectly in accordance with their functional
purpose.
►
Remove all fl ammable materials from the
work area before starting work.
►
During work, it is recommended to wear
clothing suitable for working with the weld-
ing machine (special canvas suit, welding
gloves to ensure safety when splashing
molten metal).
►
A welding mask must also be used to pro-
tect the eyes.
