2.1 Specified conditions of
use
This welding machine is intended for
welding all metals.
The welding machine and the accessory
kit supplied conform to the relevant regu-
lations applicable at the time of delivery.
This welding machine is intended for
operation by professional arc weldors or
specialists of similar qualification.
Permissible welding processes:
− Manual arc welding
− TIG DC (with optional accessories)
for all metals, except aluminium.
For machine performance see “Techni-
cal Specifications”.
Any other use is not as specified and
prohibited.
Unspecified use, modification of the
machine or use of parts not tested and
approved by the equipment manufac
-
turer could cause unforeseeable dam-
age!
2.2 General safety informa-
tion
• When using this machine, observe
the following safety instructions to
exclude the risk of personal injury or
material damage.
• Follow the specific safety instruc-
tions in the respective chapters.
• Follow the legal directives or regula-
tions for the prevention of accidents
pertaining to the handling of arc
welding machines.
B
Danger!
Electric potential!
• Use the machine indoors and in dry
environment only.
• Connect the machine only to a prop-
erly earthed outlet.
If in doubt check with a qualified
electrician!
• Service and repairs to the machine
must only be made by qualified elec
-
tricians.
• Unplug before removing the
machine's cover.
A
Danger!
• Wear sufficient protective clothing
when welding.
• Always use a welding visor and
welder's gloves.
They provide protection against fly-
ing sparks and arc radiation.
• All metal fumes are detrimental to
health!
When working indoors ensure suffi-
cient ventilation and extraction in
order to not exceed the max. per-
missible workplace pollutant con-
centration.
The fumes of lead, cadmium, cop-
per, chromium, nickel, zinc and
beryllium are particularly harmful!
A
Caution!
• Never weld earthed metal.
Welding earthed metal may cause
damage to the protective earth con-
ductors by stray currents.
• Never use the welding machine for
thawing pipes.
• Always attach the earth cable
directly to the weld metal and as
close as possible to the welding
spot.
• Always carry the welding machine at
the carrying strap when transport-
ing it.
• Special care is required when work-
ing near computers, electronically
controlled equipment or in the prox-
imity of magnetic data media (sound
recording tapes, floppy disks, data
recording tapes, credit cards, etc.).
The arc start can cause misfunction
of this type of equipment or data
loss.
