Configure welding torch
WARNING
Electric shock!
When cleaning or when replacing worn parts on the welding torch, there is a risk of
coming into contact with fatal levels of live current or hot components.
• Switch off the power source!
• Allow the welding torch to cool down before carrying out any maintenance work!
CAUTION
Risk of injuries due to hot coolant water!
Removing the coolant sleeve opens the coolant circuit so that hot coolant water can
escape from the welding torch.
• While removing replacement parts, make sure the coolant sleeve doesn't become loose.
• If the coolant circuit is opened, keep the welding torch level to prevent coolant from
escaping.
• When replacing the torch neck make sure the torch level is above the cooling unit level.
• Flush the welding torch with gas following any maintenance works.

damage to the torch.
• Check and if necessary replace all O-rings when converting the torch!
