resistant material (leather, heavy cotton, or wool) 

and foot protection. Welding on closed containers, 

such as tanks, drums, or pipes, can cause them to 

blow up. Sparks can fly off from the welding arc. The 

flying sparks, hot work piece, and hot equipment can 

cause fires and burns. Accidental contact of electrode 

to metal objects can cause sparks, explosion, 

overheating, or fire. Check and be sure the area is safe 

before doing any welding.

WELDING can cause fire or explosion.

Remove all flammables within 10m of the welding 

arc. If this is not possible, tightly cover them with 

approved covers.
Do not weld where flying sparks can strike flammable 

material.
Protect yourself and others from flying sparks and hot 

metal.
Be alert that welding sparks and hot materials from 

welding can easily go through small cracks and 

openings to adjacent areas.
Watch for fire, and keep a fire extinguisher nearby. Be 

aware that welding on a ceiling, floor, bulkhead, or 

partition can cause fire on the hidden side.
Do not weld on closed containers such as tanks, 

drums, or pipes, unless they are properly prepared 

according to local regulations
Connect work cable to the work as close to the 

welding area as practical to prevent welding current 

from travelling along, possibly unknown paths and 

causing electric shock, sparks, and fire hazards.
Wear oil-free protective garments such as leather 

gloves, heavy shirt, cuffless trousers, high shoes, and 

a cap. Remove any combustibles, such as a butane 

lighter or matches, from your person before doing any 

welding.

FLYING METAL can injure eyes.

Welding, chipping, wire brushing, and grinding cause 

sparks and flying metal. As welds cool they can throw 

off slag. Wear approved safety glasses with side 

shields even under your welding helmet.

BUILDUP OF GAS can injure or kill.

Shut off shielding gas supply when not in use. Always 

ventilate confined spaces or use approved air-supplied 

respirator.

HOT PARTS can cause severe burns.

Do not touch hot parts with bare hands.
Allow cooling period before working on gun or torch.
To handle hot parts, use proper tools and/or wear 

heavy, insulated welding gloves and clothing to 

prevent burns.

MAGNETIC FIELDS can affect pacemakers.

Pacemaker wearers keep away.
Wearers should consult their doctor before going near 

arc welding, gouging, or spot welding operations.

NOISE can damage hearing.

Noise from some processes or equipment can damage 

hearing.
Wear approved ear protection if noise level is high.
Shielding gas cylinders contain gas under high 

pressure.

CYLINDERS can explode if damaged.

Protect compressed gas cylinders from excessive 

heat, mechanical shocks, physical damage, slag, open 

flames, sparks, and arcs. Install cylinders in an upright 

position by securing to a stationary support or cylinder 

rack to prevent falling or tipping. Keep cylinders away 

from any welding or other electrical circuits. Never 

drape a welding torch over a gas cylinder. Never allow 

a welding electrode to touch any cylinder. Never weld 

on a pressurized cylinder - explosion will result. Use 

only correct shielding gas cylinders, regulators, hoses, 

and fittings designed for the specific application; 

maintain them and associated parts in good condition.
Turn face away from valve outlet when opening 

cylinder valve.
Use the right equipment, correct procedures, 

and sufficient number of persons to lift and move 

cylinders.
Read and follow instructions on compressed gas 

cylinders, associated equipment, and Compressed Gas 

Association (CGA) recommendations.

2.0 Product Description

This welding machine is manufactured using advanced 

inverter technology.   The input voltage is rectified to 

DC and then inverted to high frequency AC voltage. 

before being converted back to DC for the output .This 

allows the use of a much smaller transformer and so 

allowing weight saving and improved power efficiency. 

The inverter design also allows the characteristics of 

the machine to be changed to suit MIG, TIG and MMA 

welding from the same machine.
