INSTRUCTION MANUAL FOR PLASMA CUTTING SYSTEM
IMPORTANT: BEFORE STARTING THE EQUIPMENT, READ THE CONTENTS OF THIS MANUAL, WHICH MUST BE
STORED IN A PLACE FAMILIAR TO ALL USERS FOR THE ENTIRE OPERATIVE LIFE-SPAN OF THE MACHINE.
THIS EQUIPMENT MUST BE USED SOLELY FOR WELDING OPERATIONS.
1 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WELDING AND ARC CUTTING CAN BE HARMFUL TO YOURSELF AND OTHERS. THE USER MUST THE-
REFORE BE EDUCATED AGAINST THE HAZARDS, SUMMARIZED BELOW, DERIVING FROM WELDING
OPERATIONS. FOR MORE DETAILED INFORMATION, ORDER THE MANUAL CODE 3.300.758.
NOISE.
This machine does not directly produce noise exceeding 80dB. The plasma cutting/welding procedure may
produce noise levels beyond said limit; users must therefore implement all precautions required by law.
MAGNETIC FIELDS - May be dangerous.
· Electric current following through any conductor causes localized Electric and Magnetic Fields (EMF).
Welding/cutting current creates EMF fields around cables and power sources.
· The magnetic fields created by high currents may affect the operation of pacemakers. Wearers of vital
electronic equipment (pacemakers) shall consult their physician before beginning any arc welding, cut-
ting, gouging or spot welding operations.
· Exposure to EMF fields in welding/cutting may have other health effects which are now not known.
· All operators should use the followingprocedures in order to minimize exposure to EMF fields from the welding/cut-
ting circuit:
- Route the electrode and work cables together - Secure them with tape when possible.
- Never coil the electrode/torch lead around your body.
- Do not place your body between the electrode/torch lead and work cables. If the electrode/torch lead cable is on
your right side, the work cable should also be on your right side.
- Connect the work cable to the workpiece as close as possible to the area being welded/cut.
- Do not work next to welding/cutting power source.
EXPLOSIONS.
· Do not weld in the vicinity of containers under pressure, or in the presence of explosive dust, gases or fumes.
· All cylinders and pressure regulators used in welding operations should be handled with care.
ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY
This machine is manufactured in compliance with the instructions contained in the standard IEC 60974-10 (CL. A), and
must be used solely for professional purposes in an industrial environment. There may be potential difficul-
ties in ensuring electromagnetic compatibility in non-industrial environments.
DISPOSAL OF ELECTRICAL AND ELECTRONIC
EQUIPMENT
Do not dispose of electrical equipment together with normal waste!In observance of European Directive
2002/96/EC on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment and its implementation in accordance with national
law, electrical equipment that has reached the end of its life must be collected separately and returned to an
environmentally compatible recycling facility. As the owner of the equipment, you should get information on approved
collection systems from our local representative. By applying this European Directive you will improve the environment
and human health!
IN CASE OF MALFUNCTIONS, REQUEST ASSISTANCE FROM QUALIFIED PERSONNEL.
