MinarcMig™ Adaptive 180
suitable for stainless steel wires. Argon is suitable for welding aluminium
wires. Some filler wires form a shielding gas from the wire's filling as it melts
thus eliminating the need for a separate shielding gas.
2. saFetY instructiOns
The machine is safe to use due to its plastic cover, which does not conduct
electricity. The welding gun has an overheating protector which prevents
operation when the machine is overheated. The machine is also protected from
too low or too high supply voltage.

However, there are some risk factors connected to welding. You should
therefore read and follow the following safety instructions carefully.
2.1. use OF prOtectiVe accessOries
The arc and its reflecting radiation damage unprotected eyes. Always protect
your eyes and face with an appropriate welding mask. The arc and welding
spatters burn unprotected skin. When welding, always use protective gloves
and clothing.
2.2. saFe use OF the WelDing gun
Parts of the machine, such as the end of the filler wire and welding gun, become
burning hot during use. The wire is also sharp and moves quickly, so be careful
when threading it to place.
Never carry the machine on your shoulder during welding, but place it on an
even surface. Also, do not store the machine by hanging it from the shoulder
strap. The shoulder strap is for carrying only.
Do not keep the machine near or on hot objects, as the plastic cover may
melt.
Do not move the shielding gas bottle when the control valve is in place. Fix the
gas bottle securely in an upright position to a separate wall rack or bottle cart.
Always close the gas bottle after use.
2.3. Fire saFetY
Welding is always classified as hot work, so pay attention to fire safety
regulations. Protect the environment from welding spatters. Remove
inflammable material, such as burning fluids, from the vicinity of the welding
site and supply the site with adequate fire-fighting equipment.
