Safety instructions
device. Cleaning and
day-to-day maintenance must
not be performed by children
without supervision.
„
Only allow qualified electricians
to carry out repairs and/or
maintenance work.
„
Only use the welding cables
(PFDS 33 B4
H01N2-D1x10 mm²) included
in the scope of delivery.
„
During operation, the device
should not be right against
the wall, covered or wedged
between other devices so that
sufficient air can always be
absorbed from the ventilation
slots. Please ensure that the
device is correctly connected
to the mains voltage. Avoid
any tensile strength on the
power cable. Pull the mains
plug out of the socket prior
to setting the device up in
another location.
„
If the device is not in
operation, always switch it
off using the ON/OFF switch.
Place the electrode holders on
an insulated surface and only
remove the electrodes from the
holder after 15 minutes
of cooling down.
„
Pay attention to the condition
of the welding cable, electrode
holder and the earth
terminal. Wear and tear of the
insulation and the live parts
can lead to hazards and
reduce the quality of the
welding work.
„
Arc welding creates sparks,
molten metal parts and
smoke. Therefore ensure that:
All flammable substances
and/or materials are removed
from the work station and its
immediate surrounding.
„
Ensure the work station is
ventilated.
„
Do not weld on containers,
vessels or tubes that contain or
contained flammable liquids or
gases.
Avoid any
form of direct contact with the
welding current circuit. The
open circuit voltage between
the electrode holder and earth
terminal can be dangerous,
there is a risk of electric shock.
„
Do not store or use the device
in a damp or wet environment
or in the rain. Protection
rating IP21S is applicable in
this case.
„
Protect your eyes using the
appropriate protective glasses
(EN level 9-10), which are fas-
tened to the supplied
welding mask.
