Burns
Wear protective (fire-proof) clothing (cotton, overalls or jeans).
Wear protective gloves and a fire-proof apron.
Ensure other people keep a safe distance from the work area and do not look directly at
the welding arc.
Protect others by installing fire-proof protection walls.
Fire risks
Remove all flammable products from the work area. Do not work in presence of
flammable gases.
Fumes
Do not inhale welding gases and fumes. Use the device in a well ventilated environment,
with artificial extraction if welding indoors.
Additional
Any welding operation undertaken in.....
Precautions
- rooms where there is an increased risk of electric shocks,
- Poorly ventilated rooms,
- In the presence of flammable or explosive material,
......should always be approved by a "responsible expert", and made in presence of
people trained to intervene in case of emergency.
Technical protection as described in the Technical Specification CEI/IEC 62081 must be
implemented.
Welding in raised positions is forbidden, except in case of safety platforms use.
People wearing Pacemakers are advised to see their doctor before using this device.
Do not use the welding unit to unfreeze pipes.
Handle gas bottles with care - there is increased danger if the bottle or its valve are damaged.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Symptom
Causes
Remedies
The device does not deliver any
current and the yellow thermal
default light is on.
Thermal protection is on.
Wait for the end of the cooling
period, approx. 2mn. The light
turns off.
The display is on but the device does
not deliver any current.
The earth clamp or electrode holder
is not properly connected to the unit.
Check the connections
When starting up, the display
indicates
for one second and
turns off.
The voltage is not within range
TIG 131/161 = 230V +/- 15%.
TIG 200 = 85V - 265V
Check the electrical installation.
Ensure the correct size of Electrode is
being used.
Failure of the tungsten electrode
Use a well prepared tungsten
electrode
Unstable arc
Gas flow is too high
With weak currents, increase the
frequency
Unprotected welding zone
Protect welding zone against air flow
(Post-gas) whilst cooling.
Increase post-gas duration
The tungsten electrode oxidizes and
tarnishes the end of the weld.
Fault from post-gas
Check and tighten all gas connections
The electrode melts
Polarity error
Check that the earth clamp is
properly connected to +ve
