II. IMPORTANT SAFETY WARNINGS & REFERENCES
A.
Danger of Personal Injury
Serious injury or death may result if your welding equipment is not properly installed, used,
and maintained.
Welding is an inherently dangerous activity, and ALL welding equipment can be very
dangerous if used improperly. Welding is often performed in dangerous environments such
as high places, around water, in close quarters, etc., and it is critically important that the
operator be aware of the dangers associated with these conditions. Operators must be
aware of these dangers, trained in safe operating practices, and properly supervised and/or
assisted.
The ZENA welding system incorporates within its design safety features and special
controls that enhance operator safety. These features and controls should never be
disabled.
Welding equipment, including the ZENA mobile welding system, should only be used by an
experienced welder using proper eye protection devices equipped with a #12 to #14 shade
filter lens and proper protective clothing. If used improperly or carelessly severe eye
damage and/or severe burns can occur.
Welding equipment can damage and/or interfere with the operation of delicate electronic
equipment. Use of the ZENA welding system (or other welding equipment) should not be
attempted by individuals who use pace-makers and/or other life-sustaining electronic
medical implants and/or devices.
B.
Danger of Electrical Shock
When properly installed, the ZENA system converts your vehicle into a fully functional
mobile welder capable of producing very high direct current (DC) welding energy
(depending on the model, from 150 to over 800 amps). As such, it should be always be used
with extreme caution. In some cases, even though the system, when operating, produces
low voltage DC, life threatening electrical shock is possible.
C.
Fire & Explosion
When welding out of doors, particular attention should be given to the prevention of fires.
Sources of combustion are the welding arc, flame, flying sparks, hot slag, hot metal, and
other heated materials.
Do not attempt to weld in remote areas without a suitable fire extinguisher and/or sufficient
water and tools to extinguish any inadvertent fires which may be caused by the welding
process.
Do not weld or cut containers which have held combustible materials. Arcing against
compressed gas cylinders can cause explosion or damage to cylinder rendering it unsafe.
Do not weld near any source of oxygen.
