SAFETY Precautions for installation Beware of electric shock! Install grounding device according to application standard. Do not touch live parts with naked skin, wet gloves or wet clothes. Be sure you are insulated from ground and workpiece. Cover the cover plate of the machine before power on to avoid an electric shock.
When trouble strikes in installation and operation, please inspect according to related contents in this manual. If you still cannot understand fully, or you still cannot solve the problem, please contact the dealer or the service center of JASIC to obtain professional support. Precautions for discard Pay attention to the following when discarding the welding machine: Burning the electrolytic capacitors in the main circuit or on the PCBs may cause an explosion.
