EQUIPMENT INSPECTION
Before each use, inspect the welder, cables, electrode holder, and work clamp for any signs of damage, such as frayed wires, cracks,
9
or loose connections.
DO NOT operate the welder if any damage is found. Replace damaged components before proceeding. Use an authorised service
8
centre to carry out any repairs.
1.5.
WORK AREA PRECAUTIONS
Keep the work area free of flammable materials to prevent fire hazards.
9
Ground the workpiece securely to prevent electrical shocks.
9
Avoid welding in wet or damp environments to minimize the risk of electrical hazards.
9
Fire-proof partitions and door curtains should be used to protect other workers from electric rays and sparks.
9
Fire-fighting equipment should be provided near the welding work area.
9
Locate the inverter in a suitable work area.
9
Keep the work area clean and tidy and free from unrelated materials. Also ensure that the work area has adequate lighting.
9
DO NOT get inverter wet or use in damp or wet locations or areas where there is condensation.
8
First aid facilities and a qualified first aid person should be available during welding operations.
9
For production welding, a separate room or enclosed bay should be provided. In open areas, surround the operation with low reflective,
9
non-combustible screens or panels. Allow for free air circulation, particularly at floor level. Provide face shields for all persons who will be
looking directly at the weld. Before starting to weld, make sure that screen or bay doors are closed.
Always ensure that there is full free air circulating around the outer casing of the machine, and that the louvres are unobstructed.
9
1.6.
ARC RAY AND SPARK PROTECTION
Protect yourself and others from arc rays and sparks by using protective screens or barriers.
9
Warn others not to look directly at the welding arc.
9
Use a chipping hammer and wire brush to remove slag and spatter from the weld area to prevent burns and injuries.
9
1.7.
GENERAL SAFETY FOR WELDING
Make sure that all workpieces have been cleaned up before welding.
9
Ensure that the workpiece and the electrical connections are good.
9
Keep dry including clothes, work area, wires, welding torch, welding torch and power supply.
9
Wear dry and sealed gloves before welding.
9
Turn off the power before taking off the gloves.
9
DO NOT use the welder in damp conditions.
8
WARNING! DO NOT use a welding power source for pipe thawing.
‰
DO NOT weld containers or pipes which have held flammable materials - gases, liquids or solids.
8
DANGER! Avoid welding on materials cleaned with chlorinated solvents or near such solvents. Vapours from chlorinated solvents (such as
▲
de-greasers) can be decomposed by the heat of the arc to form PHOSGENE, a highly toxic gas, and other lung and eye irritating products.
The ultraviolet (radiant) energy of the arc can also decompose trichloroethylene and perchloroethylene vapours to form phosgene.
1.8.
ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELD
Electromagnetic fields can interfere with normal operation of pacemakers. Workers with pacemakers must consult a doctor before use.
9
1.9.
FIRE HAZARD
WARNING! Be aware that flying sparks or falling slag can pass through cracks, along pipes, through windows or doors, and through
‰
wall or floor openings, out of sight of the operator. Sparks and slag can fly 10m.
DO NOT weld within 10 metres of combustible materials (including building construction materials).
8
DO NOT weld adjacent to openings (concealed or visible) in floors or walls within 10m that can expose combustibles to sparks.
8
DO NOT weld near to walls, ceilings, roofs or metal partitions where there are combustibles that can be ignited by radiant or conducted heat.
8
Have suitable fire extinguishing equipment available and someone to use it during welding operations and for some time after welding
9
ceases. After work is done, check that area is free of sparks, glowing embers, and flames.
1.10.
CHARGING FUNCTION
Before charging check the electrolyte level and if possible refill it with distilled water to the level specified in the battery documentation.
9
When raising electrolyte levels, follow the instructions in the battery documentation closely.
9
When charging, the battery must be located in a well ventilated area.
9
Keep the battery at room temperature.
9
This equipment is specially designed for indoor use.
9
DO NOT expose the product to rain or humid conditions.
8
The battery charger must only be plugged into an earthed socket-outlet.
9
The battery terminal not connected to the chassis has to be connected first. The other connection is to be made to the chassis, remote
9
from the battery and fuel line. The battery charger is then to be connected to the supply mains.
After Charging, disconnect the battery charger from the supply mains. Then remove the chassis connection and then the battery connection.
9
WARNING! DO NOT recharge non-rechargeable batteries.
‰
If you want to charge the battery in the car, first connect the charger clip to the battery terminal correctly (the red clip is clamped at the
9
positive '+' of the battery); The black clip is clamped on the battery negative pole '-'), then select the correct charging voltage (12V or
24V), finally insert the charger plug into the power socket and press the 'accept' button to start charging.
After charging, first disconnect the device plug from the power socket, and then remove the clip clamped on the battery.
9
Before starting charging, please read and follow the charging instructions provided by the battery manufacturer. Correctly select
9
charging current and voltage.
Always place the battery and equipment on a flat and hard surface without tilting the battery.
9
Before connecting the power cord, make sure that the power parameters match the rated parameters of the equipment.
9
DO NOT over-tighten the cable.
8
DO NOT place the charger on or directly above the battery. It may corrode components in the equipment and cause damage to the battery.
8
DO NOT use fire near the battery.
8
If the device is connected to a power supply, do not touch the output.
9
Before each use, check the condition of the equipment, including the status of power cord and charging cable. If you find any defects,
9
please do not use. Damaged cables and wires must be replaced with new cables and wires in professional facilities.
Keep the equipment away from bystanders, especially children.
9
Before use, ensure that the battery terminals are clean and free of corrosion.
9
Ensure the best possible electrical contact between the battery terminal and the device charging clip.
