6.0 INSTALLATION
Choose an adequate installation area by following
the criteria provided in Section "1.0 SAFETY" and
"2.0 ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY (EMC)".
Do not position the power source and the equip-
ment on surfaces with inclination exceeding 10°
with respect to the horizontal plane.
Protect the installation from heavy rain and sun.
Do not use the power source to defrost pipes.
6.1 Electric connection to the supply mains
The equipment is provided with a single electric connection with
a 2m cable positioned in the rear part of the power source.

*: Fuses with a 25A rating are required to make maximum use
of the potential of the power source in MMA welding. 16A
fuses are sufficient for welding, with a normal use factor
(40%), electrodes of 2.50, 3.25 and also 4.00 mm, as well as
for TIG welding at every intensity and use factor up to 60%.
WARNING
* The electrical system must be made by skilled technicians
with the specific professional and technical qualifications
and in compliance with the regulations in force in the
country where the equipment is installed.
* The welding power source supply cable is provided with a
yellow/green wire that must ALWAYS be earthed. This yel-
low/green wire must NEVER be used with other voltage
conductors.
* Verity the existence of the earthing in the used plant and
the good condition of the socket/s
* lnstall only plugs that are homologated according to
the safety regulations.
6.2 Connecting the equipment components
Keep to the safety regulations contalned in section
"1.0 SAFETY".
Connect the componente carefully, in order to
avoid power losses.

Connection for MMA welding (Fig. 3)
The connection shown in the figure produces
reverse polarity welding. To obtain straight polarity
welding, invert the connection.
Connection for TIG welding (Fig. 4)
- Connect the gas pipe from the cylinder to the rear gas inlet.
