3. Proper use
The electric welder can be used to weld various
metals using the appropriate coated electrodes.
The equipment is to be used only for its prescri-
bed purpose. Any other use is deemed to be a
case of misuse. The user / operator and not the
manufacturer will be liable for any damage or inju-
ries of any kind caused as a result of this.
Please note that our equipment has not been de-
signed for use in commercial, trade or industrial
applications. Our warranty will be voided if the
machine is used in commercial, trade or industrial
businesses or for equivalent purposes.

Welding times depend on the power which is
taken from the equipment. At high power the ON
period is shorter and the cooling time longer; at
low power the ON period is longer and the cooling
time shorter.
