User manual
SETTING UP THE EQUIPMENT
• Place the welding power source on a floor with a maximum inclination of 10°.
• Provide sufficient space to ventilate the welding power source and access the controls.
• Do not use in an area with conductive metal dust.
• The welding power source should be protected from heavy rain and not exposed to direct sunlight.
• The equipment has an IP23 protection rating which means:
- the dangerous parts of the machine are protect against entry by objects greater than 12.5 mm and,
- it is protected against rain falling up to 60° from the vertical.
The equipment can be used outside in accordance with the IP23 protection certification.
The power cables, extensions and welding cables must be fully uncoiled to prevent overheating.
The manufacturer assumes no responsibility for damage to persons or objects caused by improper and dangerous use of this
equipment.
MAINTENANCE / RECOMMENDATIONS
• Maintenance should only be carried out by a qualified person. Annual maintenance is recommended.
• Switch off the power supply by pulling the plug and wait two minutes before working on the equipment.. Inside the macine, the
voltages and currents are high and dangerous.
• Regularly remove the cover and blow out any dust. Take advantage of the opportunity to have the electrical connections checked with an insulated
tool by a qualified professional.
• Regularly check the condition of the power cable. If the power cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, the after sales service
team or an equally qualified person to avoid any danger.
• Leave the welding power source vents free for air intake and outflow.
• Do not use this welding power source for thawing pipes, recharging batteries/storage batteries or starter motors.
INSTALLATION - USING THE PRODUCT
Only experienced personnel, authorised by the manufacturer, may carry out the machine's set-up. During set-up, ensure that the power source is
unplugged from the mains. Series or parallel power source connections are not allowed. It is recommended to use the welding cables supplied with
the unit in order to obtain the best possible product performance.

POWER SWITCH
This equipment is delivered with a single-phase 3-pole (P+N+PE) 230V 16A CEE17 socket. The machine is equipped with a «Flexible Voltage»
system and can be powered by an earthed electrical installation between 110V and 240V (50 - 60 Hz) For heavy use at 110V and 230V, replace the
original plug with a 32 A plug protected by a 32 A circuit breaker. The user has to make sure that the socket is accessible.
The actual absorbed current (I1eff) for optimal operating conditions is indicated on the equipment. Check that the power supply and its protection
(fuse and/or circuit breaker) are compatible with the current required to run the machine. In some countries, changing the plug may be necessary to
ensure the machine's optimum performance.
• This machine will enter a protection mode if the supply voltage is higher or lower than 15% of the specified voltage(s) (a fault code will appear on
the keypad display).
• Starting is done by pressing the START/STOP switch (On), and stopping is done by pressing the same switch (Off). Warning! Never switch off the
power supply while the unit is under load.
