Introduction
Congratulations!
You have purchased
one of our high-quality
devices. Please familiarise yourself with the

Intended use
The device is suitable for self-shielded
flux-core welding using an appropriate wire.
No additional gas is required. The protective
gas is contained in powder form in the wire
itself, thus it is fed directly into the arc.
This means the device is not susceptible to
wind and can be used outside. Only suitable
wire electrodes may be used for the device.
Intended use also involves compliance
with the safety instructions and assembly
instructions and the operating notes in the
operating instructions.
The applicable accident prevention
provisions must be strictly observed.
The device must not be used:
– in rooms with insufficient ventilation,
– in damp or wet environments,
– in explosive atmospheres,
– for the purpose of thawing pipes,
– in the vicinity of people with cardiac
pacemakers and
– in the vicinity of easily inflammable
materials. Use the product only as
described and only for the specific appli-
cations as stated. Keep these instructions
in a safe place. Ensure you hand over all
documentation when passing the product
on to anyone else. Any use that differs
to the intended use as stated above is
prohibited and potentially dangerous.
Damage or injury caused by misuse or
disregarding the above warning is not
covered by the warranty or any liability
on the part of the manufacturer.
Residual risk
Even if you operate the device as intended,
there will be residual risks. The following risk
can occur in the context of the design and
construction of this flux-core welding device:
– eye injuries caused by glare,
– touching hot parts of the device or the
workpiece (burn injuries),
– in the case of insufficient protection, risk of
accidents and burns due to flying sparks
or slag,
– harmful emissions of smoke and gases
caused by lack of air or insufficient
extraction in closed rooms.
Reduce the residual risk by carefully using
the device as intended and observing all
instruction.
