WELDING SPARKS CAN CAUSE FIRE OR EXPLOSION:  Remove fire hazards from the welding area 
and have a fire extinguisher readily available.  Welding sparks and hot materials from the welding 
process can easily go through small cracks and openings to adjacent areas.  Do not weld on any tanks, 
drums, containers, or material until the proper steps have been taken to insure that no flammable or 
toxic vapors will be present.  Never operate this equipment when flammable gases, vapors or liquid 
combustibles are present. 

 

WELDED MATERIALS CAN BURN:  Welding generates a large amount of heat.  Hot surfaces and 
materials in work area can cause serious burns.  Use gloves and pliers when touching or moving 
materials in the work area. 

 

EQUIPMENT WEIGHT OVER 30kg:  Move this equipment with care and with the help of another 
person. Lifting may be dangerous for your physical health. 

 

CYLINDER MAY EXPLODE IF DAMAGED:  Use only compressed gas cylinders containing the correct 
shielding gas for the process used and properly operating regulators designed for the gas and pressure 
used. Always keep cylinders in an upright position securely chained to a fixed support.  Do not move or 
transport gas cylinders with the protection cap removed.  Do not allow the electrode, electrode holder, 
work clamp or any other electrically live part to touch a gas cylinder.  Gas cylinders must be located 
away from areas where they may be subjected to physical damage or the welding process including 
sparks and heat sources. 

HF 

CAUTION: The high frequency used for contact-free ignition with TIG (GTAW) welding, can interfere 
with the operation of insufficiently shielded computer equipment, EDP centers and industrial robots, 
even causing complete system breakdown.  TIG (GTAW) welding may interfere with electronic 
telephone networks and with radio and TV reception. 

 

SAFETY MARK:  This equipment is suitable for supplying power for welding operations carried out in 
an environment with increased hazard of electric shock. 

 
The manufacturer reserves the Right to make changes and/or improvements in design without upgrade at the same time 
the operator’s manual.
