General

These MIG/MAG welding torches are exceptionally robust and reliable. The ergo-
nomic grip, ball joint and optimal weight distribution combine to enable fatigue-
free working. The welding torches are available as gas-cooled and water-cooled
versions in different power categories and sizes, so no weld seam is out of reach.
The welding torches can be adapted to deal with a huge variety of different tasks,
and are ideal for use in manual series and one-off fabrication, as well as in the
workshop sector.

Proper use

The MIG/MAG manual welding torch is intended solely for MIG/MAG welding in
manual applications.
Any use above and beyond this purpose is deemed improper. The manufacturer
shall not be held liable for any damage arising from such usage.
Proper use includes:

WARNING!
Always extract welding fumes.
Ensure an adequate supply of fresh air. Ensure that there is a ventilation rate
of at least 20 m³ (169070.1 US gi) per hour at all times.
If in doubt, a safety engineer should be commissioned to check the pollution
level in the workplace.
CAUTION!
Never operate water-cooled welding torches without coolant.
During welding, ensure that the coolant is circulating correctly – this will be
the case for Fronius cooling units if a regular return flow of coolant can be
seen in the coolant container of the cooling unit.
The manufacturer will not be liable for any damages due to non-observance
of the above mentioned points. All claims against the warranty are void.
