Design and function
WARNING
Risk of injury from electrical voltage!
Contact with live parts, e.g. power connections, can be fatal!
• Observe the safety information on the first pages of the operating instructions!
• Commissioning must be carried out by persons who are specifically trained in handling
power sources!
• Connect connection or power cables while the machine is switched off!
CAUTION
Risk from electrical current!
If welding is carried out alternately using different methods and if a welding torch and
an electrode holder remain connected to the machine, the open-circuit/welding voltage
is applied simultaneously on all cables.
• The torch and the electrode holder should therefore always be placed on an insulated
surface before starting work and during breaks.
Read and observe the documentation to all system and accessory components!

Lifting by crane
WARNING
Risk of injury during lifting by crane
!
When lifting the machine by crane, persons may be severely injured by falling machines
or mount-on components.
• Simultaneous lifting
of system components such as power source
,
wire
feeder or cooling unit without suitable crane components is not
allowed. Each system component has to be lifted separately!
• Remove any supply leads and accessories before lifting by crane
(e.g.
hose package
,
wire spool
,
shielding gas cylinder
,
toolbox, wire feeder
,
remote control,etc.)!)
• Properly close and lock all casing covers and protective caps
before
lifting by crane!
• Use the correct number of hoisting equipment of the right size in the
correct position! Observe craning principle (see figure)!
• For machines with lifting eyes: always lift all lifting eyes simultaneously
!
• When using retrofitted craning frames etc.: always use at least two
lifting points positioned as far apart as possible
– observe option
description.
• Avoid any jerky movements!
• Ensure that the load is
distributed evenly! • Use chain hoists and
chain slings of the same length only!
• Stay outside the danger zone underneath the machine!
• Observe the regulations regarding occupational safety and accident
prevention for the respective country.
