The manufacturer's warranty becomes void if non-genuine parts are used!
• Only use system components and options (power sources, welding torches, electrode hold-
ers, remote controls, spare parts and replacement parts, etc.) from our range of products!
• Only insert and lock accessory components into the relevant connection socket when the ma-
chine is switched off.
Requirements for connection to the public mains network
High-performance machines can influence the mains quality by taking current from the mains
network. For some types of machines, connection restrictions or requirements relating to the
maximum possible line impedance or the necessary minimum supply capacity at the interface
with the public network (Point of Common Coupling, PCC) can therefore apply. In this respect,
attention is also drawn to the machines' technical data. In this case, it is the responsibility of the
operator, where necessary in consultation with the mains network operator, to ensure that the
machine can be connected.
2.5 Transport and installation
WARNING
Risk of injury due to improper handling of shielding gas cylinders!
Improper handling and insufficient securing of shielding gas cylinders can cause seri-
ous injuries!
• Observe the instructions from the gas manufacturer and any relevant regulations concern-
ing the use of compressed air!
• Do not attach any element to the shielding gas cylinder valve!
• Prevent the shielding gas cylinder from heating up.
CAUTION
Risk of accidents due to supply lines!
During transport, attached supply lines (mains leads, control cables, etc.) can cause
risks, e.g. by causing connected machines to tip over and injure persons!
• Disconnect all supply lines before transport!
Risk of tipping!
There is a risk of the machine tipping over and injuring persons or being damaged itself
during movement and set up. Tilt resistance is guaranteed up to an angle of 10° (ac-
cording to IEC 60974-1).
• Set up and transport the machine on level, solid ground.
• Secure add-on parts using suitable equipment.
Risk of accidents due to incorrectly installed leads!
Incorrectly installed leads (mains, control and welding leads or intermediate hose pack-
ages ) can present a tripping hazard.
• Lay the supply lines flat on the floor (avoid loops).
• Avoid laying the leads on passage ways.
Risk of injury from heated coolant and its connections!
The coolant used and its connection or connection points can heat up significantly
during operation (water-cooled version). When opening the coolant circuit, escaping
coolant may cause scalding.
• Open the coolant circuit only when the power source or cooling unit is switched off!
• Wear proper protective equipment (protective gloves)!
• Seal open connections of the hose leads with suitable plugs.
