It is important to pay attention to the notes on welding shield maintenance, given
on page 25. When replacing the glass panels, use ONLY those parts supplied by
Clarke International. The dark panel is a certified, specific optical class, and should
not be exchanged for any other type.
The clear glass panel should be replaced when it becomes badly pitted.
WARNING:
NEVER look at an electric arc without eye protection as this can injure the
eyes permanently. ALWAYS use a protection mask or welding helmet.
All components are now correctly assembled, and the welder
may now be prepared for operation, as follows:
To assemble the welding shield, insert
the clear glass panel first, followed by
the dark glass panel into the recess in
the shield, i.e. the clear glass MUST be
on the outside of the shield. Securing
them with the plastic screws provided.
Slot the two pieces together as shown, and
enter the threaded end of the handle
through the holes provided. Thread on the
plastic nut and tighten.
