2 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS AND WARNINGS
1. Once the packing has been opened, make sure that the machine is not
damaged. If in any doubt, call the service centre.
2. This equipment must only be used by qualified personnel.
3. During installation, any electric work must only be carried out by trained
personnel.
4. The machine must be used in a dry place with good ventilation.
5. Make sure that no metal dust can be drawn in by the fan inside the
machine, as this could cause damage to the electronic circuits.
6. It is prohibited to connect more than one INVERTER generator in series
or in parallel.
7. When installing the machine, follow the local regulations on safety.
8. The position of the machine must allow easy access by the operator to
the controls and connectors.
9. When the welding machine is operating, all its covers and doors must be
closed and well fixed.
10.
Do not expose the welding machine to direct sunlight or to heavy
rain. This equipment conforms to protection rating IP23S.
11.
During welding, the welding cables must be located near or at
ground level. They should be as short as possible.
12.
The operator must wear gloves, clothes, shoes, and a helmet or a
welder’s helmet, which protect and are fire-resistant in order to protect
him against electric shock, flashes and sparks from welding.
13.
The operator must protect his eyes with safety visor or mask
designed for welding, fitted with standard safety filters. He should also be
aware that during electrical welding ULTRAVIOLET RADIATION is
emitted. Therefore it is vital that his face is also protected from radiation.
Ultraviolet rays produce the same harmful effect as sun burning on
unprotected skin.
14.
The operator is obliged to warn anyone near the welding area of
the risks that welding involves and to arrange to provide adequate
protection equipment.
15.
It is very important to arrange for sufficient ventilation, especially
when welding in enclosed spaces. We suggest using suitable fume
extractors to prevent the risk of intoxication by fumes or gas generated
by the welding process.
16.
The operator must ensure all flammable materials are removed
from the work area to avoid any risk of fire.
17.
The operator must NEVER weld containers that have previously
contained petrol, lubricants, gas or similar flammable materials, even if
the container has been empty for a considerable time. THERE IS A
VERY HIGH RISK OF EXPLOSION.
18.
The operator must be aware of all the special regulations which he
needs to conform to when welding in enclosed spaces with a high risk of
