FLYING SPARKS can cause injury.
Wear a face shield to protect eyes and face.
Shape tungsten electrode only on grinder with
proper guards in a safe location wearing proper
face, hand, and body protection.
Sparks can cause fires — keep flammables away.
OVERUSE can cause OVERHEATING.
Allow cooling period; follow rated duty cycle.
Reduce current or reduce duty cycle before
starting to weld again.
Do not block or filter airflow to unit.
STATIC (ESD) can damage PC boards.
Put on grounded wrist strap BEFORE handling
boards or parts.
Use proper static-proof bags and boxes to
store, move, or ship PC boards.
TILTING OF TRAILER can cause injury.
Use tongue jack or blocks to support weight.
Properly install welding generator onto trailer
according to instructions supplied with trailer.
READ INSTRUCTIONS.
Use only genuine MILLER/Hobart replacement
parts.
Perform engine and air compressor (if applica-
ble) maintenance and service according to this
manual and the engine/air compressor (if appli-
cable) manuals.
H.F. RADIATION can cause interference.
High-frequency (H.F.) can interfere with radio
navigation, safety services, computers, and
communications equipment.
Have only qualified persons familiar with
electronic equipment perform this installation.
The user is responsible for having a qualified electrician
promptly correct any interference problem resulting from the
installation.
If notified by the FCC about interference, stop using the
equipment at once.
Have the installation regularly checked and maintained.
Keep high-frequency source doors and panels tightly shut, keep
spark gaps at correct setting, and use grounding and shielding to
minimize the possibility of interference.
ARC WELDING can cause interference.
Electromagnetic energy can interfere with
sensitive electronic equipment such as micro-
processors, computers, and computer-driven
equipment such as robots.
Be sure all equipment in the welding area is
electromagnetically compatible.
To reduce possible interference, keep weld cables as short as
possible, close together, and down low, such as on the floor.
Locate welding operation 100 meters from any sensitive elec-
tronic equipment.
Be sure this welding machine is installed and grounded
according to this manual.
If interference still occurs, the user must take extra measures
such as moving the welding machine, using shielded cables,
using line filters, or shielding the work area.

Considerations About Welding And The Effects Of Low Frequency
Electric And Magnetic Fields
Welding current, as it flows through welding cables, will cause electro-
magnetic fields. There has been and still is some concern about such
fields. However, after examining more than 500 studies spanning 17
years of research, a special blue ribbon committee of the National
Research Council concluded that: “The body of evidence, in the
committee’s judgment, has not demonstrated that exposure to power-
frequency electric and magnetic fields is a human-health hazard.”
However, studies are still going forth and evidence continues to be
examined. Until the final conclusions of the research are reached, you
may wish to minimize your exposure to electromagnetic fields when
welding or cutting.
To reduce magnetic fields in the workplace, use the following
procedures:
1.
Keep cables close together by twisting or taping them.
2.
Arrange cables to one side and away from the operator.
3.
Do not coil or drape cables around your body.
4.
Keep welding power source and cables as far away from
operator as practical.
5.
Connect work clamp to workpiece as close to the weld as
possible.
About Pacemakers:
Pacemaker wearers consult your doctor first. If cleared by your doctor,
then following the above procedures is recommended.
