The user must be an expert in the activity and as such
is responsible for installation and use of the equip-
ment according to the manufacturer's instructions.
lf any electromagnetic interference is noticed, the
user must solve the problem, if necessary with the
manufacturer's technical assistance.
In any case electromagnetic interference problems
must be reduced until they are not a nuisance any
longer.
Before installing this apparatus, the user must evalu-
ate the potential electromagnetic problems that
may arise in the surrounding area, considering in
particular the health conditions of the persons in
the vicinity, for example of persons fitted with pace-
makers or hearing aids.
Welding cables
To minimise the effects of electromagnetic fields follow the fol-
lowing instructions:
- Where possible, collect and secure the earth and power
cables together.
- Never coil the welding cables around your body.
- Do not place your body in between the earth and power
cables (keep both on the same side).
- The cables must be kept as short as possible, positioned as
close as possible to each other and laid at or approximately
at ground level.
- Position the equipment at some distance from the welding
area.
- The cables must be kept away from any other cables.
Earthing the workpiece
When the workpiece is not earthed for electrical safety reasons
or due to its size and position, the earthing of the workpiece
may reduce the emissions. It is important to remember that the
earthing of the workpiece should neither increase the risk of
accidents for the user nor damage other electric equipment.
The earthing must be made according to the local regulations.
Shielding
The selective shielding of other cables and equipment present
in the surrounding area may reduce the problems due to elec-
tromagnetic interference. The shielding of the entire welding
equipment can be taken in considered for special applications.
2 INSTALLATION
Installation should be performed only by expert
personnel authorised by the manufacturer.
During installation, ensure that the power source
is disconnected from the mains.
2.1 Commissioning
Before starting work, it is necessary to carry out the following
checks and work:
- Check that the generator is turned off.
- Check that all the parts of the torch are working. For the
various parts that make up the torch body, the sequence of
correct assembly is 1-2-3-4-5.
