2.1. PROPER USE
The welding unit is designed for manual covered-electrode arc welding, argon arc
welding, and gas-shielded semiautomatic arc welding. Any other use of the welding unit
is considered as improper. The manufacturer of the welding unit is not responsible for
damages caused by any improper use of the unit.
The use of the welding unit is proper if all the requirements of this Operation Manual are
satisfied.
WARNING!!! Do not use the welding unit to unfreeze pipes.
2.2. REQUIREMENTS FOR INSTALLATION
The welding unit is protected against ingress of foreign particles more than 2.5 mm in
size. The welding unit is allowed for outdoor operation. The internal electrical and
electronic elements of the welding unit are protected against moisture but are not
protected against atmospheric condensate drops.
WARNING! After completing welding works in hot weather, or
completing intensive welding works in any weather, switch off the
welding unit only after at least 5 minutes of time required for the
electronic elements of the unit to be cooled.
WARNING! When operating the welding unit in cold season, after the
unit was switched off and cooled, condensate can be formed inside of the
unit, so switch on the welding unit only 3 … 4 hours after the switching
off.
For this reason, do not switch off the welding unit if it is anticipated that the unit is to be
switched on not later than 4 hours after the switching off.
Install the welding unit so as not to block or cover the ventilation slots on the front and
rear panels of the unit. Prevent ingress of metallic particles (for example, when grinding
the weld) sucked into the welding unit by the unit ventilator.
WARNING! After fall from a height, the welding unit might be a source
of electrical shock. Install the unit on a firm stable surface.
