Inspection and cleaning

Check regularly that the control unit is not clogged with dirt.
How often and which cleaning methods apply depend on:
• welding process
• arc time
• location of the unit
• surrounding environment
Usually it will be sufficient to blow the unit clean once a year, using dry compressed air
(reduced pressure).
