If the supply cable is damaged it
must be replaced by the manufacturer,
their service agent or a similarly
qualified person.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: Warranty may
be voided if equipment is powered
from an unsuitable engine driven
generator.
Generators used to power this equipment
must have a minimum capacity of 10 kW
continuous and incorporate output
voltage regulation.
Due to variation between generators by
different manufacturers, it is impossible
for WIA to validate operation from all
generators. Therefore, we recommend
that operation of equipment on
the generator is received from the
manufacturer before purchasing the
generator.
2 Receiving

3 Operation
VRD Function - Only active during
MMA
Whenever the welding output of the Weldarc
inverter is open circuit (ie not arcing), the
voltage across the welding leads is reduced
to a safe level. This provides an increased
level of safety to the welding operator during
operations such as changing the electrode.
The “VRD SAFE” indicator on the front
panel is on to confirm the output is in the
safe condition.
The term VRD refers to a “Voltage Reducing
Device”which complies with AS1674.2 for
Category “C” conditions.
