WARNING!
The welding set may produce voltage surges in the mains supply which can damage other sensitive equipment
(e.g. computers). To prevent this happening, it is recommended that the welding set is connected to a power supply that
does not feed any sensitive equipment.
1.2.
GENERAL SAFETY
▲
DANGER! Unplug the welding set from the mains power supply before performing maintenance or service.
9
Keep the welding set and cables in good working order and condition. Take immediate action to repair or replace damaged parts.
9
Use genuine parts and accessories only. Unapproved parts may be dangerous and will invalidate the warranty.
9
Use an air hose to regularly blow out any dirt from the liner and keep the welding set clean for best and safest performance.
9
Check and spray the gas cup and contact tip regularly with anti-spatter spray, available from your Sealey stockist.
9
Locate the welding set in a suitable work area. Ensure that the area has adequate ventilation as welding fumes are harmful.
9
Keep work area clean, tidy and free from unrelated materials. Also ensure the working area has adequate lighting and that a fire
extinguisher is at hand.
WARNING! Use welding head shield to protect eyes and avoid exposing skin to the ultraviolet rays given off by electric arc.
Wear safety welding gauntlets
.
9
Remove ill fitting clothing, remove ties, watches, rings and other loose jewellery and contain long hair.
9
Ensure the workpiece is correctly secured before welding.
9
Avoid unintentional contact with the workpiece. Accidental or uncontrolled use of the torch may be dangerous and will wear the
nozzle.
9
Keep unauthorised persons away from the work area. Any persons working within the area must wear a protective head shield and gloves.
9
Operators must receive adequate training before using the welding set.
9
Stand correctly keeping a good footing and balance, ensure the floor is not slippery and wear non-slip shoes.
8
DO NOT
operate the welding set if it or the cables are damaged and
DO NOT
attempt to fit any unapproved torches or other
components to the welding set.
8
DO NOT
get the welding set wet or use in damp or wet locations or areas where there is condensation.
▲
DANGER! DO NOT weld near flammable solids, liquids or gases and
DO NOT weld containers or pipes which have held
flammable materials. Avoid welding materials which have been cleaned with chlorinated solvents or welding near such solvents.
8
DO NOT
stand the welding set on a metal workbench, car bodywork or similar.
8
DO NOT
touch any live metal parts of the torch or electrode while the welding set is switched on.
8
DO NOT
pull the welding set by the cable, or the torch. Protect cables from sharp or abrasive items.
DO NOT
bend, strain or stand on
cables or leads.
9
Protect from heat. Long lengths of slack must be gathered and neatly coiled.
DO NOT
place cables where they endanger others.
8
DO NOT
touch the torch or workpiece immediately after welding as they will be very hot. Allow to cool.
8
DO NOT
operate the welding set while under the influence of drugs, alcohol or intoxicating medication, or if tired.
9
When not in use store the welding set in a safe, dry, childproof area.
1.3.
VOLTAGE BETWEEN ELECTRODE HOLDERS OR TORCHES
Working with more than one welding machine on a single piece or on pieces that are connected electrically may generate a
dangerous amount of no-load voltage between the two electrode holders or torches, the value of which may reach double the
allowed limit. Measuring instruments should be used to determine the existence of a risk and suitable precautions taken.
1.4.
ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE
The electromagnetic fields generated by the welding process may interfere with the operation of electrical and electronic equipment.
Users of vital electronic and electrical devices such as pacemakers and respirators are advised not to remain in the vicinity of an
operating welding set. If in doubt seek medical advice before entering a welding area. Users of such devices should not operate
the welding set. This welding set complies with the requirements of the technical standard for the use of this type of product, only and
exclusively in industrial environments and for professional purposes. It is not guaranteed to meet electronic compatibility requirements
in the home.
