MAINTENANCE
All electromechanical devices require routine service maintenance depending on usage. This
type of routine maintenance will prevent hazards and malfunctions.
We recommend that you schedule a service inspection of your welding machine every six
months. An authorised Kemppi service agent will inspect and clean your machine, ensuring
that all power connections are tight and secure. Power connections can become loose and
oxidised with frequent and high changes in temperature.
Be careful when handling electrical cables!
NOTE!
In maintaining the unit, take into consideration the rate of use and the environment it is
used in. When the unit is used properly and serviced regularly, you will avoid unnecessary
disturbances in use and production.
6.1
Daily maintenance
Perform the following maintenance daily:
• Clean electrode holder and TIG torch's gas nozzle. Replace damaged or worn parts.
• Check TIG torch's electrode. Replace or sharpen, if necessary.
• Check tightness of welding and earth cables connections.
• Check condition of mains and welding cables and replace damaged cables.
• See that there is enough space around the unit for ventilation.
6.2
Storage
Store the unit in a clean and dry place. Shield it from rain, and in temperatures exceeding
+25 °C from direct exposure to sun.
6.3
Disposal of the machine
Do not dispose of electrical equipment with normal waste!
In observance of European Directive 2002/96/EC on waste electrical and electronic
equipment, and its implementation in accordance with national law, electrical equipment
that has reached the end of its life must be collected separately and taken to an appropriate
environmentally responsible recycling facility.
The owner of the equipment is obliged to deliver a decommissioned unit to a regional
collection centre, per the instructions of local authorities or a Kemppi representative. By
applying this European Directive you will improve the environment and human health.
