Stray welding currents/voltages may destroy earth conductors, damage electrical equipment or cause
components to warm up which may cause a fire.
• All welding connections must be firmly secured, check regularly !
• Check that the metal piece fixation is strong and without any electrical problems !
• Attach or hang all the electrically conductive elements, such as the trolley and slinging equipment, in order to insulate them
• Do not place any electrical equipment, such as drills or grinders, on top of the welding machine without insulating them !
• Always place welding torches or electrodes holders on an insulated surface when they're not in use !
EQUIPMENT INSTALLATION
• Put the machine on the floor (maximum incline of 10°).
• Ensure the work area has sufficient ventillation for welding, and that there is easy access to the control panel.
• The machine must not be used in an area with conductive metal dusts.
• The machine must be placed in a sheltered area away from rain or direct sunlight.
• The machine protection level is IP21, which means :
- Protection against acess to dangerous parts from solid bodies of a ≥12.5mm diameter and,
- Protection against vertically falling drops.
The power cables, extensions and welding cables must be fully uncoiled to prevent overheating.
The manufacturer does not incur any responsability regarding damages to both objects and persons that
result from an incorrect and/or dangerous use of the machine .
MAINTENANCE / RECOMMENDATIONS

INSTALLATION – PRODUCT OPERATION
DESCRIPTION
Thank you for chosing this machine. To get the best use from your machine, please read the following carefully :
The GOLDMULTI range are semi-automatic MIG/MAG, MMA and flux cored wire welding stations. They are manual settings ma-
chine, with the help of the table printed on the product. They are recommended for welding steel, stainless steel and aluminium.
ELECTRICITY SUPPLY
This machine is fitted with a 16A socket type CEE7/7 which must be connected to a single-phase 230V (50 - 60 Hz) power sup-
ply fitted with three wires and one earthed neutral. The absorbed current (I1eff) is indicated on the device at maximum usage.
Check that the power supply and its protection (fuse and/or circuit breaker) are compatible with the current needed for use. In
some countries, it might be necessary to change the plug to allow maximum performance. The device must be installed so that
the mains socket is accessible.
Do not use an extension cable with a diameter of less than 1.5mm².
