1.2. Other precautions
Warning!
Location
The machine should be located in a suitable position and environment. Care
should be taken to avoid moisture, dust, steam, oil or corrosive gases. Place
on a secure level surface and ensure that there is adequate clearance
around the machine to ensure natural airflow.
Warning!
The handle or strap on the welder is only suitable for manual lifting
of the welder. If mechanical equipment such as crane is used to lift the
welder, please ensure the welder is secured with suitable lifting equipment.
Warning!
Input connection
Before connecting the machine, you should ensure that the correct supply is
available. Details of the machine requirements can be found on the data
plate of the machine or in the technical parameters shown in the manual. The
equipment should be connected by a suitably qualified competent person.
Always ensure the equipment has a proper grounding.
Never connect the machine to the mains supply with the panels removed.
1) When the operator's movement is limited by the surroundings (for example, the operator
can only bend his knees, barefoot, or lie down during operation), the operator shall practice
proper insulation and avoid direct contact with conductive parts on the equipment.
2) Do not use the welder in closed containers in narrow spaces where conductive
components cannot be removed.
3) Do not use the welder in humid environments where the operator is prone to the risk of
electric shock.
4) Do not weld in sunlight or rain, and no water or rainwater shall seep into the welder.
5) Do not perform gas shielded welding in an environment with strong air flow.
6) Avoid welding in dusty area or environment with corrosive chemical gas.
7) The ambient temperature must be between-10° C and 40°C during operation and
between-25°C and 50°C during storage.
8) Welding shall be carried out in a relatively dry environment, and the air humidity shall not
exceed 90%.
9) The inclination of the welder shall not exceed 10°.
10) Ensure that the input power supply voltage does not exceed 15% of the rated voltage of
the machine.
11) Beware of falling when welding at heights.
