Note : the overheating tests have been made at room temperature and the duty cycles at 40°C have been determined by
simulation.
MAINTENANCE
• Refer all servicing to qualified personnel.
• Disconnect the generator and wait until the ventilator stopped before working on the unit. Inside the device, voltages
and current are dangerous.
• Two or three times a year, remove the steel cover and blow off the dust with compressed air. Let check the electrical
connections (with an insulated tool) and the insulations by qualified personnel.
• Regularly control the state of the cord. If this supply cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its
after sales service or a similarly qualified technician to avoid any danger.
ADVICE
• Respect welding polarities and currents indicated on the electrode packaging
• Remove the electrode from the electrode holder when you do not use it.
• Leave the inlets free to allow in/out air circulation.
SECURITY
The arc w elding can be dangerous and leads serious injury, m ay fatal. P rotect yourself and protect the others.
Respect the follow ing w arnings:
Arc rays
Protect yourself thanks to a welding helmet in compliance with EN175 equiped with filters in
compliance with EN 169 or EN 379. Inform and protect by the same means any people in the
welding environment.
Rain, steam,
The working environment must be clean (degree of pollution ≤ 3) and protected against rain. Put
humidity
the appliance on an even place and at least at one meter from the parts to be welded. Do not use
them under rain or snow.
Electric shocks
This appliance may only be used in accordance with the power supply requirements listed before. It
must be earthed.
Moving
Do not underestimate the weight of the apparatus. Do not carry it over people or things. Do not
drop it. Do not set it brutally
Burns
Wear protective or fire-proof clothing (overalls, jeans).
Use some welder gloves and a fire-proof apron.
Protect the others by installing non flammable protection wall , or prevent the others to not look at
the arc and to keep a sufficient distance
Fire risks
Suppress all flammable products from the working area. Do not works near flammable gas.
Smokes
Do not inhale gas or welding smokes. If indoors ventilate the area well and/or use local extraction
ventilation equipment to remove fumes and gases.
Extraprecautions
Any welding operation :
- in environments with increased risk of electric shock,
- in confined spaces,
- in the presence of flammable or explosive materials must be evaluated in advance by an "Expert
supervisor" and must always be carried out in the presence of other people trained to intervene in
case of emergency.
Technical protection measures MUST BE taken as described in the TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION "IEC
62081".
Welding in raised positions is forbidden unless safety platforms are used.
The persons carrying pacemaker have to consult a doctor before using these machines
In TIG welding, manipulate the gas bottle carefully. Indeed, there are risks if the bottle or the bottle valve are
