WARNING! indicates a potentially dangerous situation. Death or serious injury may result if appropriate precautions are not taken. CAUTION! indicates a situation where damage or injury could occur. -
Page 10: Intended Purpose
Intended purpose The device is to be used exclusively for its intended purpose. The device is intended for the welding process described on the rating plate only. Any use above and beyond this purpose is deemed improper. The manufac- turer shall not be liable for any damage resulting from such improper use. Utilisation in accordance with the "intended purpose"... -
Page 11: Obligations Of Personnel
Obligations of Before using the device, all persons instructed to do so undertake: personnel to observe the basic instructions regarding safety at work and accident prevention to read these operating instructions, especially the "Safety rules" section and sign to confirm that they have understood them and will follow them. Before leaving the work area, ensure that people or property cannot come to any harm in your absence. -

protect eyes and face from UV rays, heat and sparks using a protective visor and regulation filter. wear regulation protective goggles with side protection behind the safety visor. wear stout footwear that provides insulation even in wet conditions. protect the hands with suitable gloves (electrically insulated and providing protection against heat). -
Page 13: Danger From Flying Sparks
Danger from fly- Flying sparks may cause fires or explosions. ing sparks Never weld close to flammable materials. Flammable materials must be at least 11 metres (35 ft) away from the arc, or alternatively covered with an approved cover. A suitable, tested fire extinguisher must be available and ready for use. Sparks and pieces of hot metal may also get into adjacent areas through small gaps or openings. -
Page 14: Meandering Welding Currents
Arrange for the mains and device supply to be checked regularly by a qualified electrician to ensure the PE conductor is functioning properly. The device must only be operated on a mains supply with a PE conductor and a socket with an earth contact. If the device is operated on a mains without a PE conductor and in a socket without an earth contact, this will be deemed gross negligence. -
