Warnings and Safety 

Welding and plasma cutting may be dangerous to the operator and to bystanders, if the 

equipment is not operated properly. Welding or cutting must be performed in accordance with 

all relevant safety regulations. Carefully read and understand this instruction manual before 

installing and operating this equipment. 

Changing function modes during welding may damage 

equipment. 

Before welding, disconnect the electrode-holder cable from the 

equipment. 

A circuit breaker is required to prevent electrical overload of the 

equipment. 

Only high quality welding tools should be used. 

 

Electric Shock can be fatal. 

Ensure that ground cable is connected in accordance with 

applicable safety codes. 

Never touch electrodes, wires, or circuit components with bare 

hands. Wear dry welding gloves when welding. 

The operator must be insulated from the work piece. 

 

Smoke and gas can be harmful to health. 

Ensure that the working area is well ventilated. 

Avoid breathing smoke and gas generated during the welding 

process. Cutting and welding can cause cancer because of the 

smoke that comes from the welds and cuts.
