Safe operation and proper maintenance is your responsibility. We have compiled this operator’s manual, to instruct you in basic safety, op- eration and maintenance of your Everlast product to give you the best possible experience. Much of welding and cutting is based upon experience and com- mon sense.
Be careful to read and follow all cautions and warnings. Protect yourself and others. EVERLAST Welding and cutting processes produce high levels of ultraviolet (UV) radiation that can cause severe skin burn and damage. There are other potential hazards involved with welding such as severe burns and respiratory related illnesses.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS continued WARNING! EVERLAST Persons with pacemakers should not weld, cut or be in the welding area until they consult with their physician. Some pacemakers are sensitive to EMF radiation and could severely malfunction while welding or while being in the vicinity of someone welding.

Table 3.7.1 Recommended Note: Use only recommended sizes in Tig torches unless you purchase additional col- lets to fit the electrodes snugly. Loose fitting electrodes quickly ruin TIG torch parts.

This is helpful for preventing warpage and preventing the formation of Heat Affected Zones (HAZ) in the metal. 5.3 Simple and easy steps to cutting correctly with an Everlast PowerPlasma® Cutter. 1.
