9.1 Keep your Welding Machine in Top Condition
The WF-205MST does not require any special maintenance, however the user should take care of the
machine as follows:
1. Regularly clean the ventilation slots
2. Keep the casing clean
3. Check all cables before use
4. Check electrode holders, work lead/clamps and welding torches before use
5. Replace worn electrode holders and earth clamps, which do not provide a good connection
6. Replace worn torch consumable parts in a timely manner
7. Replace worn wire drive components in a timely manner
8. Use a soft cloth or brush to clean electrical components. Do not use liquid cleaning products,
water or especially solvents
9. Do not use compressed air to clean electrical components as this can force dirt and dust further
into components, causing electrical short circuits
10. Check for damaged parts
WARNING! Before performing cleaning/maintenance, replacing cables/connections,
make sure the welding machine is switched off and disconnected from the power
supply.
If damaged, before further use, the welder must be carefully checked by a qualified person to determine
that it will operate properly. Check for breakage of parts, mountings and other conditions that may affect
its operation.
Have your welder repaired by an expert. An authorised service centre should properly repair a damaged
part.
This appliance is manufactured in accordance with relevant safety standards. Only experts must carry out
repairing of electrical appliances, otherwise considerable danger for the user may result.
