• Check filter sieve insert for dirt, clean if necessary and reinsert into position.
• Top up coolant to the filter sieve insert, close sealing cover again.
After the initial filling, wait for at least one minute when the machine is switched on so that the
tube package is filled with coolant completely and without bubbles.
With frequent changes of torch and during the initial filling process, the cooling unit tank should be
topped up as necessary.
