ELECTRICAL SHOCK
PREVENTION
• Do not carry out repairs with the
generator live.
• Before carrying out any
maintenance or repair activities,
disconnect the machine from the mains.
• Ensure that the welder is suitably earthed.
• The equipment must be installed by qualified
personnel. All connections must comply with
the regulations in force (IEC 60821) and with
the accident prevention laws.
• Do not weld in damp or wet surroundings or
under rain.
• Do not weld with worn or loose wires. Inspect
all cables frequently and ensure that there
are no insulation defects, uncovered wires
or loose connections.
• Do not weld with cables of insufficient
diameter and stop soldering if the cables
overheat, so as to avoid rapid deterioration
of the insulation.
• Never directly touch live parts. After use,
carefully replace the torch or the electrode
holding grippers, avoiding contact with the
parts connected to earth.
SAFETY REGARDING WELDING FUMES
AND GAS
• Carry out purification of the work
area, from gas and fumes emitted
during the welding, especially
when welding is carried out in an
enclosed space.
• Place the welding system in a well aired
place.
• Remove any traces of varnish that cover the
parts to be welded, in order to avoid toxic
gases being released. Always air the work
area.
• Do not weld in places where gas leaks are
suspected or close to internal combustion
engines.
• Keep the welding equipment away from
baths for the removal of grease where
vapours of trichloroethylene or other chlorine
containing hydrocarbons are used as
solvents, as the welding arc and the
ultraviolet radiation produced by it react with
such vapours to form phosgene, a highly
toxic gas.
PROTECTION FROM RADIATION, BURNS
AND NOISE
• Never use broken or defective
protection masks
• Do not look at the welding arc
without a suitable protective shield
or helmet
• Protect your eyes with a special screen fitted
with adiactinic glass (protection grade 9 - 14
EN 169)
• Immediately replace unsuitable adiactinic
glass
• Place transparent glass in front of the
adiactinic glass to protect it
• Do not trigger off the welding arc before you
are sure that all nearby people are equipped
with suitable protection.
• Pay attention that the eyes of nearby persons
are not damaged by the ultraviolet rays
produced by the welding arc
• Always use protective overalls, splinter-proof
glasses and gloves
• Wear protective earphones or earplugs
• Wear leather gloves in order to avoid burns
and abrasions while manipulating the pieces.
AVOIDANCE OF FLAMES AND
EXPLOSIONS
• Remove all combustibles from the
workplace
• Do not weld close to inflammable
materials or liquids, or in
environments saturated with explosive gases
• Do not wear clothing impregnated with oil
and grease, as sparks can trigger off flames
• Do not weld on recipients that have
contained inflammable substances, or on
materials that can generate toxic and
inflammable vapours when heated.
• Do not weld a recipient without first
determining what it has contained. Even
small traces of an inflammable gas or liquid
can cause an explosion.
• Never use oxygen to degas a container.
• Avoid gas-brazing with wide cavities that
have not been properly degassed.
• Keep a fire extinguisher close to the
workplace
• Never use oxygen in a welding torch; use
only inert gases or mixtures of these.
RISKS DUE TO ELECTROMAGNETIC
FIELDS
• The magnetic field generated by
the machine can be dangerous
to people fitted with pace-makers,
hearing aids and similar
equipment. Such people must consult their
doctor before going near a machine in
operation.
• Do not go near a machine in operation with
watches, magnetic data supports and timers
etc. These articles may suffer irreparable
damage due to the magnetic field.
• This equipment complies with the protection
requirements set by the 89/336 CEE, 92/31
CEE and 93/68 CEE directives on
electromagnetic compatibility (EMC). In
particular, it complies with the technical
prescriptions of the EN 50199 standard and
is foreseen to be used in all industrial
spaces and not in spaces for domestic
use. If electromagnetic disturbances should
occur, it is the user's responsibility to resolve
the situation with the technical assistance of
the producer. In some cases the remedy is
to schormare the welder and introduce
suitable filters into the supply line.
MATERIALS AND DISPOSAL
• These machines are built with
materials that do not contain
substances that are toxic or
poisonous to the operator.
• During the disposal phase the
machine should be disassembled and its
components should be separated according
to the type of material they are made from.
HANDLING AND STOCKING
COMPRESSED GASES
• Always avoid contact between cables
carrying welding current and
compressed gases cylinder and
their storage systems.
• Always close the valves on the
7
compressed gas cylinders when not in use.
• The valves on Inert gas cylinder should
always be fully opened when in use.
• The valves on flammable gases should only
be opened full turn so that quick shut off con
be mode in an emergency.
• Care should be taken when moving
compressed gas cylinders to avoid damage
and accidents which could result in injury.
• Do not attempt to refill compressed gas
cylinders, always use the correct pressure
reduction regulators and suitable base fined
with the correct connectors.
• For further information consult the safety
regulation governing the use of welding
gases.

Installation

The installation site for the system must be
carefully chosen in order to ensure its
satisfactory and safe use.
The user is responsible for the installation and
use of the system in accordance with the
producer's instructions contained in this
manual.
Before installing the system the user must take
into consideration the potential electromagnetic
problems in the work area. In particular, we
suggest that you should avoid installing the
system close to :
• signalling, control and telephone cables
• radio and television transmitters and
receivers
• computers and control and measurement
instruments
• security and protection instruments
Persons fitted with pace-makers, hearing aids
and similar equipment must consult their doctor
before going near a machine in operation. The
equipment's installation environment must
comply to the protection level of the frame i.e.
IP 23 (IEC 529 publication). This system is
cooled by means of the forced circulation of
air, and must therefore be placed in such a
way that the air may be easily sucked in and
expelled through the apertures made in the
frame.
