The device must not be submerged in water.
In order to secure the fitting against slipping during the welding process, the respective clamping
fixtures should be used. The assembly instructions for the respective fitting manufacturer as well
as local or national regulations and installation instructions should always be observed.
The contact surfaces of the welding plug and the fitting must be clean. Dirty contacts can lead to
overheating damage to the plug. Check which plug type(s) are needed for the welding to be per-
formed. Before changing the plugs, always unplug the mains power plug beforehand!
All metallic surfaces must be covered.

Electrical connection
For construction site distribution boards observe the regulations about the FI protective switch
and only operate the welding device over an FI switch (Residual Current Device, RCD).
Ensure that the mains power network or power generator is fused using fuses of a maximum of
20 A (time-lag).
Only appropriately use approved and registered extensions cables with the following conductor
cross-sections.
up to 20 m:
more than 20 m:
The extension cable may only be used when unrolled completely and stretched to avoid over-
heating.
The required power generator nominal output is dependent on the highest power consumption of
the fittings used. Furthermore, the ambient conditions as well as the performance data of the
power generator itself should be taken into account when constructing the connecting conditions
on-site.
The nominal power output of a single-phase power generator is 220 – 240 V, 50/60 Hz:
d 20 - d 160 .............. 3,2 kW
d 160 - d 400 ............ 4 kW mechanically regulated
d > 400 ..................... 5 kW electronically regulated
The power generator must be switched on first before the welding equipment can be attached.
The open circuit voltage should be regulated at about 240 volts.
Note: No other consumer should be driven by the same power generator while
welding!
After finishing the welding work, first separate the device connector plug from the power genera-
tor, then switch this off.

In order to change the plug-in contacts, insert a pin or
a similar item (3 mm dia.) at the side into the bore on
the screw connector and hold fast. Unscrew using a
screwdriver with a Torx 15 adapter and remove.
Put in the new adapter by hand and screw on down to
the stop and tighten down firmly using a screwdriver
with a Torx 15 (15 Nm) and then remove the holding pin
again.
