9. MAINTENANCE
WARNING!
Before maintenance, switch off the welding unit and
disconnect the power cable from the outlet of the power supply
system. Wait for about 5 minutes until static charges in the unit
circuits disappear, and then perform the maintenance operations.
After completion of works with the welding unit, apply to the unit a
plate with a warning text prohibiting switching on the unit.
For ensuring the operability of the welding unit for a long-term service life, it is necessary
to perform the following procedures:
•
Periodically, at specified time intervals, check that the safety requirements in
operation of the welding unit are fulfilled (see Section 15, "Safety instructions").
•
At half-yearly intervals, purge the welding unit with dry compressed air.
•
When working in environment with excessive dust content, manually clean the
passages for cooling air.
WARNING!
Purging the unit with compressed air at short distance can
result in damage of the electronic elements of the unit.
