POWER TOOL PRECAUTIONS
This equipment requires a dedicated 115/230 volt, 30 amp single-phase alternating current
circuit equipped with a similarly rated circuit breaker or slow blow fuse. Do not run other
appliances, lights, tools or equipment on the circuit while operating this welding unit.
1.
Do not drape or carry coiled welding cables on your body when the cables are plugged into
the welding unit.
2.
Do not start the tool when the electrode is touching the workpiece.
3.
Hold the tool by the insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where it
may contact hidden wiring or its own cord and cables. Contact with a 'live' wire will
electrify exposed metal parts and shock the operator.
4. Take work breaks to prevent the tool's motor from overheating and/or overloading. Refer to
the welding unit's duty cycle in Specifications.
5.
Keep hands away from the electrode and the area it is being applied to when the tool is in
operation.
6.
Do not connect the welding unit ground clamp to an electrical conduit. Do not weld on an
electrical conduit.
7.
Do not touch the electrode or welded surface immediately after use. The surface will be hot
and may cause an injury.
8.
Never use a tool with a cracked or worn electrode. Change the electrode before using and
discard the damaged one.
9.
Remove the electrode from the holder when not in use.
POWER CORD
Insert the power cord plug directly to the power supply whenever possible. Extension cords are
not recommended for use with this welding unit.
ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELDS
WARNING! Stop welding immediately and move away from the welding unit if you feel faint,
dizzy, nausea or shocks. Seek medical attention.
Electromagnetic Fields (EMF) can interfere with electronic devices such as pacemakers.
Anyone with a pacemaker should consult with their doctor before working with or near an arc
welding unit. The following steps can minimize the effects of electromagnetic fields.
1.
Twist or tape cables together and prevent coils.
2.
Do not drape cables on your body.
3.
Keep the welding power source and cables as far away from the user as practical. A
minimum of 24 in. is recommended.
4. Connect the workpiece clamp as close to the weld as possible, but lay the electrode and
workpiece cables away from the user.
5.
Use the lowest current setting possible during welding.
6.
Avoid long and regular bursts of energy while welding. Apply the electrode in short strokes
and intermittently. This will prevent the pacemaker from interpreting the signal as a rapid
heartbeat.
7.
Do not allow the electrode to touch the metal while welding.
8.
Wrap the Arc lead cable and ground cable together whenever possible.
9.
Keep the Arc lead cable and ground cables on the same side of your body.
