SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 

 
 
The 

CIR-KIT WELD 450

 is an extremely safe machine to use.  However, some precautions 

must be adhered to when working or repairing it: 
 

 

Never connect the 

CIR-KIT WELD 450

 to any voltage or frequency other than that 

stated on the label at the back of the machine. 

 

 

Never fit a higher current rated fuse than 5 amp 

 

 

Never remove the 

top

 cover with the mains plug still connected. 

 

 

Only a qualified electrician should carry out repair work on the circuitry, etc. 

 

 

Use only SEETRAX replacement parts to repair the 

CIR-KIT WELD 450

 

 

Never put your face nearer than 6" (152mm) to the Electrodes when a weld is being 
made.  Splatter from tin/lead deposits, may cause burning or eye damage.  

 

 

Do not operate with wet hands. 

 

 

Do not leave the machine switched on when not in use other than to charge batteries.
