INSTRUCTION
Before using this product, please read this manual and use the instructions
in this manual. This instruction manual is a basic piece of equipment.
USER RESPONSIBILITIES:
The user agrees to allow only persons
who: have been acquainted with the basic safety rules, have been trained
in the use of welding equipment and have appropriate qualifications. They
are familiar with the chapter "Safety Regulations" and the precautionary
guidelines in this manual.
THREATS
ELECTRIC SHOCK CAN KILL:
Welding devices produce high voltage.
While the machine is connected to the power supply, it is not allowed to
touch the welding handle and the workpiece. All of these elements form a
welding current circuit and may cause electric shock, so avoid touching
them with bare hands and wet or damaged protective clothing. Protective
clothing should not restrain movements. If possible, it should not be made
of synthetic materials.
Electrocution can be fatal !!!
ARC RAYS CAN BURN:
It is not allowed to directly observe the welding
arc with uncovered eyes.
Arc and splinters may cause skin burns or flames, so always wear a
protective mask fitted with a darkened filter (glasses should be equipped
with glass filter grade DIN 9 10)
Any unauthorized persons near your site should protect your eyes with
special protective goggles or with non-flammable, radiation-absorbing
screens.
VAPOUR AND GASES MAY BE DANGEROUS:
The resulting smoke
and harmful gases should be removed from the work area by means of
specialized equipment, do not cover the ventilation openings. Welding
should be carried out in well ventilated areas and welding vapors are
harmful to health - especially when welding materials such as lead,
mercury, cadmium, zinc, beryllium, galvanized or stainless steel. Ensure
sufficient fresh air flow in the room. Do not allow solvent vapors to enter
the welding arc area.
ELECTROMAGNETIC POLE MAY BE DANGEROUS:
By inducing a high voltage current, the electromagnetic field flowing
through the welding wires may have a negative effect on the performance
of electrical devices such as the cardio-stimulator. Persons wearing such
equipment should consult a physician before entering the area where
welding work is performed. Welding hoses should be arranged in parallel,
as close as possible to each other.
