D Do not install or place unit on, over, or near D Keep away from moving parts such as fans. combustible surfaces. D Keep all doors, panels, covers, and guards D Do not install unit near flammables.
1-5. EMF Information Considerations About Welding And The Effects Of Low Frequency 1. Keep cables close together by twisting or taping them. Electric And Magnetic Fields 2. Arrange cables to one side and away from the operator. Welding current, as it flows through welding cables, will cause electro- magnetic fields.
