SAFETY PRECAUTIONS: MMA & TIG WELDING
WARNING!
specifications provided with this machine. Failure to follow all
instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or
serious injury. Only qualified persons should install, operate,
maintain, and repair this unit.
These Welding machines functions both as Tungsten Inert Gas
(TIG) welding and MMA (Manual Metal Arc) Machine.
ELECTRIC SHOCK
Touching live electrical parts can cause fatal shocks or
severe burns. The electrode and work circuit is
electrically live whenever the output is on. Incorrectly
installed or improperly grounded equipment is a hazard.
▪ Insulate yourself from work and ground using dry insulating
mats or covers, big enough to prevent any physical contact with
the work or ground.
▪ Do not connect more than one electrode or work cable to any
single weld output terminal.
▪ Always verify the supply ground – check and be sure that input
power cord-ground wire is properly connected to ground terminal
in disconnect box or that cord plug is connected to a properly
grounded receptacle outlet.
FUMES AND GASES
Welding produces fumes and gases. Breathing these fumes
and gases can be hazardous to your health. Keep your head
out of the fumes. Do not breathe the fumes.
Do not weld on coated metals, such as galvanized, lead, or
▪
cadmium plated steel, unless the coating is removed from the
weld area, the area is well ventilated, and if necessary, while
wearing an air-supplied respirator.
