READ INSTRUCTIONS.

Use only genuine MILLER/Hobart replacement

parts.

Perform engine and air compressor (if applicable)

maintenance and service according to this manual

and the engine/air compressor (if applicable) manu-

als.

H.F. RADIATION can cause interference.

High-frequency (H.F.) can interfere with radio naviga-

tion, safety services, computers, and communica-

tions 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 microprocessors,

computers, and computer-driven equipment such as

robots.

Be sure all equipment in the welding area is electro-

magnetically 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 electronic

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.

1-6. California Proposition 65 Warnings

Welding or cutting equipment produces fumes or gases which

contain chemicals known to the State of California to cause

birth defects and, in some cases, cancer. (California Health &

Safety Code Section 25249.5 et seq.)

Battery posts, terminals and related accessories contain lead

and lead compounds, chemicals known to the State of

California to cause cancer and birth defects or other

reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling.

For Gasoline Engines:

Engine exhaust contains chemicals known to the State of

California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive

harm.

For Diesel Engines:

Diesel engine exhaust and some of its constituents are known

to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, and

other reproductive harm.

1-8. EMF Information

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 before welding or going near

welding operations. If cleared by your doctor, then following the above

procedures is recommended.
