Operating Instructions and Parts Manual
General Safety Information
(Continued)
Always
keep a
fire extinguisher accessible
while performing arc welding
operations.
• All installation, maintenance, repair
and operation of this equipment
should be performed by qualified
persons only in accordance with
national, state, and local codes.
Improper
use of
electric arc welders can cause
electric shock, injury, and
death! Take all precautions
described in this manual to reduce the
possibility of electric shock.
• Verify that all components of the
arc welder are clean and in good
condition prior to operating the
welder. Be sure that the insulation
on all cables, electrode holders,
and power cords is not damaged.
Always repair or replace damaged
components before operating
the welder. Always keep welder
panels, shields, etc. in place when
operating the welder.
• Always wear dry protective clothing
and welding gloves, and insulated
footwear.
• Always operate the welder in a
clean, dry, well ventilated area. Do
not operate the welder in humid,
wet, rainy, or poorly ventilated
areas.
• Be sure that the work piece is
properly supported and grounded
prior to beginning any electric arc
welding operation.
• Coiled welding cable should be
spread out before use to avoid
overheating and damage to
insulation.
Never immerse
the electrode
or electrode holder in water. If the
welder becomes wet for any reason, be
absolutely certain that it is completely
clean and dry prior to attempting use!
• Always shut the equipment off and
unplug the power prior to moving
the unit.
• Always attach the ground lead first.
• Verify that the work piece is
securely grounded.
• Always shut off electric arc welding
equipment when not in use and
remove the electrode from the
holder.
• Never allow any part of the body to
touch the electrode and ground or
grounded work piece at the same
time.
• Awkward welding conditions
and positions can be electrically
hazardous. When crouching,
kneeling or at elevations, be sure to
insulate all conductive parts, wear
appropriate protective clothing,
and take precautions to prevent
injury from falls.
• Never attempt to use this
equipment at current settings
or duty cycles higher than those
specified on the equipment labels.
• Never use an electric arc welder to
thaw frozen pipes.
Flying
sparks
and hot metal can cause
injury. As welds cool, slag
can be thrown off. Take all
precautions described in this manual
to reduce the possibility of injury from
flying sparks and hot metal.
• Wear ANSI approved face shield
or safety glasses with side shield
protection when chipping or
grinding metal parts.
• Wear ear plugs when welding
overhead to prevent spatter or slag
from falling into ears.
Electric
arc welding operations
produce intense light and
heat and ultraviolet (UV)
rays. This intense light and UV rays can
cause injury to eyes and skin. Take all
precautions described in this manual to
reduce the possibility of injury to eyes
and skin.
• All persons operating this
equipment or in the area while
equipment is in use must wear
protective welding gear including:
welding helmet or shield with
3
WS4369 and WS4469
proper shade as specified in the
following chart, flame resistant
clothing, leather welding gloves,
and full foot protection.
Current (Amps) filter Shade
Up to 160 Amps
160 to 250 Amps
Never look at arc
welding operations
without eye protection as described
above. Never use a shade filter lens
that is cracked, broken, or rated below
number 10. Warn others in the area not
to look at the arc.
Electric
arc
welding operations cause
sparks and heat metal to
temperatures that can cause
severe burns! Use protective gloves and
clothing when performing any metal
working operation. Take all precautions
described in this manual to reduce the
possibility of skin and clothing burns.
• Make sure that all persons in the
welding area are protected from
heat, sparks, and ultraviolet rays.
Use additional face shields and
flame resistant barriers as needed.
• Never touch work pieces until
completely cooled.
Heat and
sparks
produced during electric arc
welding and other metal
working operations can ignite
flammable and explosive materials! Take
all precautions described in this manual
to reduce the possibility of flames and
explosions.
• Remove all flammable materials
within 35 feet (10.7 meters) of
welding arc. If removal is not
possible, tightly cover flammable
materials with fire proof covers.
• Do not operate any electric arc
welder in areas where flammable
or explosive vapors may be present.
Take precautions to be sure that
flying sparks and heat do not cause
flames in hidden areas, cracks,
behind bulkheads, etc.
