Dear customer,
Congratulations to your purchase of this high-quality
MIG/MAG welding machine.
To ensure your personal safety and for reasons of
appliance safety we ask you to read the instructions
completely before operating this machine and to
observe all points.
Basic Information for the Operator
The MIG/MAG welding machine is a DC welding
power source with integrated wire feed, designed
and manufactured exclusively for MIG and MAG
electric arc welding.
Any other use of this machine involves dangers and
is not permitted.
The welding machine must only be operated on the
mains voltage stated on the machine's rating plate.
Connection to the supply circuit must be made via
an earthed outlet, installed by a qualified electrician.
The supply circuit must be protected by a fuse or
miniature circuit breaker.
Depending on the mains connection conditions at
the point of connection, welding power sources can
cause disturbances to other consumers in the distri-
bution system. Check with your power utility before
connecting to power. (Class A in accordance with
CISPR 11)
Keep the welding machine out of the reach of chil-
dren.
Please note the hazards associated with the weld-
ing process and observe any work and fire preven-
tion regulations.

Safety Information and Accident
Prevention Measures
x Keep the welding machine out of the reach of
children.
x Observe all applicable work and fire prevention
regulations when operating this welding
machine. Observe all applicable accident pre-
vention regulations.
x With welding a number of different hazards are
associated, which can pose a danger to health
under certain circumstances.
x When welding always wear a close fitting, dry
overall (preferably fire retardant welders
apparel) unsoiled by combustible substances,
sturdy, insulating boots, headgear and leather
welders gloves.
x Clothing made of synthetic fabrics and shoes
are not suitable.
Dry, insulating gloves worn on both hands pro-
tect against electric shock (open-circuit voltage
of the welding current circuit), hazardous rays
(heat and ultra-violet rays) as well as against
glowing metals and slag spatters. The ultra-vio
-
let radiation causes sunburn-like effects on
unprotected parts of the body.
Fumes – Vapours – Smoke
x During welding hazardous smoke and metal
dust develops. We strongly recommend the
wearing of welding fume respirators, and to weld
only in sufficiently vented rooms, to ensure the
necessary operator protection.
x For enclosed spaces forced ventilation, installed
below the welding area, must be used.
x The material to be welded must be free from hal-
ogen solvents or degreasing agents, to prevent
the generation of toxic vapours.
