1. SAFETY
1.1. ELECTRICAL SAFETY
WARNING! It is the user's responsibility to check the following:
‰
Check all electrical equipment and appliances to ensure that they are safe before using. Inspect power supply leads, plugs and
9
all electrical connections for wear and damage. Sealey recommend that an RCD (Residual Current Device) is used with all electrical
products.
Electrical safety information. It is important that the following information is read and understood:
Ensure that the insulation on all cables and on the appliance is safe before connecting it to the power supply.
9
Regularly inspect power supply cables and plugs for wear or damage and check all connections to ensure that they are secure.
9
Important: Ensure that the voltage rating on the appliance suits the power supply to be used and that the plug is fitted with the correct
fuse.
DO NOT pull or carry the appliance by the power cable.
8
DO NOT pull the plug from the socket by the cable.
8
DO NOT use worn or damaged cables, plugs or connectors. Ensure that any faulty item is repaired or is replaced immediately by a
8
qualified electrician.
If the cable or plug is damaged during use, switch off the electricity supply and remove from use.
Ensure that repairs are carried out by a qualified electrician.
The Electricity at Work Act 1989 requires that all portable electrical appliances, if used on business premises, are tested by a qualified
electrician, using a Portable Appliance Tester (PAT), at least once a year.
1.2. The Health & Safety at Work Act 1974 makes owners of electrical appliances responsible for the safe condition of those appliances and
the safety of the appliance operators. If in any doubt about electrical safety, contact a qualified electrician.
1.3. Ensure that the insulation on all cables and on the appliance is safe before connecting it to the power supply.
1.4. SUPERMIG180.V5, SUPERMIG200.V3, SUPERMIG230.V3 are single phase machines and must be run from a minimum 16amp
supply.
1.5. To achieve maximum output these models will require a 32Amp fused supply. We recommend you discuss the installation of an industrial
round pin plug and socket with your electrician.
1.6. When a cable extension reel is used it should be fully unwound before connection. A cable reel with an RCD fitted is recommended since
any product which is plugged into the cable reel will be protected. The cross-section of the cable on the cable reel must be suitable for the unit
and never lower than the cross-section of the mains cable supplied with the unit.
1.7. GENERAL SAFETY
▲ DANGER! Unplug the welder from the mains power supply before performing maintenance or service.
WARNING! DO NOT place the welding power source on a tilted plane as this may lead to the unit toppling over.
‰
Welding power sources are not suitable for use in rain or snow.
9
The output is rated at an ambient temperature of 20 °C and the welding time may be reduced at higher temperatures.
9
Risk of electric shock: Electric shock from welding electrode can kill. DO NOT weld in the rain or snow. Wear dry insulating gloves. DO
9
NOT touch electrode with bare hands. DO NOT wear wet or damaged gloves. Protect yourself from electric shock by insulating yourself
from workpiece. DO NOT open the equipment enclosure.
Risk induced by welding fumes: Breathing welding fumes can be hazardous to your health. Keep your head out of the fumes. Use
9
equipment in an open area. Use ventilating fan to remove fumes.
Risk induced by welding sparks: Welding sparks can cause explosion or fire. Keep flammables away from welding. DO NOT weld near
9
flammables. Welding sparks can cause fires. Have a fire extinguisher nearby and have a watchperson ready to use it. DO NOT weld on
drums or any closed containers.
Risk induced by the arc: Arc rays can burn eyes and injure skin. Wear hat and safety glasses. Use ear protection and button shirt collar.
