4ARC WELDING can cause interference.
• Electromagnetic energy can interfere withsensitive electronic
equipment such ascomputers and computer-driven
equipment such as robots.
• Be sure all equipment in the welding area iselectromagnetically
compatible.
• To reduce possible interference, keep weld cables as short
as possible, close together, and down low, such as on the floor.
• Locate welding operation 100 meters from any sensitive elec-
tronic equipment.
• Be sure this welding machine is installed and grounded
according to this manual.
• If interference still occurs, the user must take extra measures
such as moving the welding machine, using shielded
cables,using line filters, or shielding the work area.
2.3.-EMF Information
To reduce magnetic fields in the workplace, use the
followingprocedures:
1.Keep cables close together by twisting or taping them, or using
acable cover.
2.Arrange cables to one side and away from the operator.
3.Do not coil or drape cables around your body.
4.Keep welding power source and cables as far away from opera-
tor as practical.
5.Connect work clamp to workpiece as close to the weld as possi-
ble.
Warning: In fire and electrical shock increment risk places
as close to flammable and explosive stuff, height, reduced
freedom of movement, physical contact with conductors, hot
ambiences that reduces electrical resistance of human skin and
devices please compulsory observe the local and national legal
regulations.
3. - Startup instructions
3.1.-Placement
The machine must be placed in a dry, ventilated area and at a
distance of at least 15 cm away from any wall. The equipment may
skid on surfaces with inclinations of more than 3O so that ii must
always compulsorily be placed on an even and dry surface. For
placement on surfaces having a higher slope, please secure the
machine with chains or belts.
3.2.- Mounting
The equipment must be mounted respecting its environmental
limits and placing it adequately.
3.3.- Connection to the grid
The equipment is powered by means of the series-provided cable
and connector through a differential switch and a connector slow-
feature electromagnet of an electrical strength according to the
table of technical features. Any connection must have a regulatory
connection to earth and comply with all domestic regulations on
electricity.
In the case of a connection to an electric generator, the power
needs as indicated in the technical features are to be observed. It
must be taken into account that an equipment can operate with a
generator with a power that is lower than the indicated one with the
limitation that it is to be used at a maximum electrical strength that
ENGLISH

is lower than the nominal one.
3.4.- Limitation of environmental conditions
The equipment must be installed respecting the IP21 classification
thereof; this means that the equipment is protected at the most
against the vertical fall of water drops and access to dangerous
parts with a finger and against solid bodies of 12.5 mm and larger
ones.
The equipment is prepared for working within the temperature
range of -15ºC to 70ºC, taking into account the limitation of its drop
in performance (duty cycle) as of temperatures higher than 40ºC.

handled by means of the belt handle which is enabled for
transport. A free space of at least 15 cm must be provided around
the equipment, and free circulation of air must be secured for a
correct heat dissipation. Before each work, the good status and
correct tightening of each of the external elements of the
equipment must be verified: power supply plug, cable, carpentry of
the casing and connection terminals and switches.
4.2.- Changing tools

half-inch or 3/8 inch quick connector for the welding cables. For
removing or putting the connector it is sufficient to turn the
connector a fourth of a turn leftward or rightward.
ATTENTION: Always turn the DINSE connector to the limit and
make sure that the junction with the cable is in a good status
and that the contact surface is clean. A bad junction or a dirty
junction lead to a bad yield and will cause the front panel to
heat up, fuse or burn.

system and are provided ex works in a completely calibrated
status, so that the user is not authorized to manipulate it for
reasons of efficiency and safety. In the case of any doubt
concerning bad functioning please contact your dealer or our
customer service system.
4.4.- Limits of the size of the work piece
The main restriction on the size of the piece to be welded is the
thickness thereof that it limited by the power of the equipment. The
higher power is, you will be able to make correct welds (with an
adequate penetration of the weld bead) in pieces of major
thickness. The following table may serve as an orientation
