3. HEALTH AND SAFETY
INFORMATION
3.1 General Safety Instructions
Warning! Read all safety warnings and all
instructions. When using electric tools basic safety
precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk
of fire, electric shock, and personal injury including the
following.
Read all these instructions before attempting to operate
this product and save these instructions.
Electric shock can kill:
– Remove the plug from the socket before carrying out
adjustment, servicing, or maintenance.
– Allow 5 minutes waiting time for the capacitors to
discharge before removing the panels for any
maintenance operations
– Do not touch live electrical parts.
– Never use electrode holders or cables with damaged
or deteriorated insulation.
– Keep the working environment, equipment, cables,
and clothing free from grease, oil, moisture, and dirt.
– Ensure the welding machine has been correctly
earthed and all panels are fitted securely.
– The operator must be insulated from the floor and
workbench using a dry insulation mat.
– Wear isolating footwear and gloves that are in good
condition, i.e. without holes.
– In hazardous conditions of increased electric shock
always ensure a second person is present in case of
an accident.
– Never change electrodes with bare hands or damp
gloves (for ARC/MMA welders).
– Keep welding cables away from power cables.
– Regularly inspect the condition of the welding, earth,
and power cables for signs of damage.
– Do not leave the machine unattended and remove
the plug from the socket when not in use.
– Do not use welding cables unsuitable for the
amperage.
– Ensure the earth clamp is adjacent to the weld seam,
secured to bare metal and when not in use is
insulated for safety.
– Keep all equipment well maintained.
– The operator shall prevent gas cylinders in the
vicinity of the workpiece from becoming part of the
welding circuit.
Fumes & Gases can be harmful:
– The welding process generates hazardous fumes as
a by-product. Inhalation of these fumes is hazardous
to health.
