This device may be used by children aged 16 years and older, and by persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capacities, or a lack of experience and knowledge, if they are supervised or have been instructed in how to use the device safely and under

stand the dangers that may arise when using it. Do not allow children to play with the device. Cleaning and day-to- day maintenance must not be performed by children without supervision. Repairs and/or maintenance work must only be carried out by qualified electricians. Only use the welding cables (PESG 120 B4 H01N2-D1 x 10 mm²) included in the scope of delivery. During operation, the device should not be positioned directly on the wall, covered or jammed between other devices so that sufficient air can be absorbed through the ventila

tion slats. Makes sure that the device is correctly connected to the supply voltage. Avoid any form of tensile stress of the power cable. Disconnect the plug from the socket prior to setting up the device in another location. If the device is not in operation, always switch it off by pressing the ON/OFF switch. Place the electrode holder on an insulated surface and only remove it from the holder after allowing it to cool down for 15 minutes. Pay attention to the condition of the welding cable, electrode holder and the earth terminal. Wear and tear of the insulation and the live parts can lead to hazards and reduce the quality of the welding work. Arc welding creates sparks, molten metal parts and smoke. Therefore ensure that: All flammable substances and/or materials are removed from the work station and its immediate surrounding. Ensure the work station is ventilated.GB/IE/NI/CY/MT10 Do not weld on containers, vessels or tubes that contain or contained flamm able liquids or gases. Avoid any form of direct contact with the welding current circuit. The open circuit voltage between the electrode holder and earth terminal can

dangerous, there is a risk of electric shock. Do not store or use the device in a damp or wet environment or in the rain. Protection rating IP21S is applicable in this case. Protect your eyes using the appropriate protective glasses (DIN level 9-10), which are fastened to the supplied weld

ing mask. Wear gloves and dry protective clothing that are free of oil and grease to protect the skin from exposure to ultraviolet radiation of the arc. Do not use the welding current source to defrost pipes. Please note: The light radiation emitted by the electric arc can damage eyes and cause burns to the skin. Arc welding creates sparks and drops of melted metal. The welded workpiece starts to glow and remains hot for a relatively long period. Therefore, do not touch the workpiece with bare hands. Arc welding can cause vapours to be release that may be hazardous to health. Be careful not to inhale these vapours. Protect yourself from the harm- ful effects of the electric arc and keep people that are not involved in the work away from the arc maintaining a distance of at least 2 m. ATTENTION! During the operation of the welding device, other consum

ers may experience problems with the voltage supply depend

ing on the network conditions at the connection point. In case of doubt, please contact your energy supply company. During the operation of the welding device, other devices may malfunction, e.g. hearing aids, cardiac pacemakers, etc. Safety instructionsGB/IE/NI/CY/MT 11 z Potential hazards during electric arc welding There are a series of potential hazards that can occur during electric arc welding. It is therefore particularly important for the welder to observe the following rules to avoid endangering him/ herself and others and to prevent damage to people and the device. Work on the voltage side, e.g. on cables, plugs, sockets etc., may only be carried out by qualified electricians according to national and local regulations. In the event of accidents, disconnect the welding devoice from the mains voltage immediately. If electrical contact voltages occur, switch off the device immediately and make sure you have it checked by a qualified electrician. Always ensure good electrical contacts on the welding current side. Always wear insulating gloves on both hands during welding work. These provide protection from electrical shocks (open circuit voltage of the welding current circuit), harmful radia

tions (heat and UV radiation) and incandescent metal and splashes of slag. Wear sturdy, insulating shoes. The shoes should also insulate when exposed to moisture. Loafers are not suitable as fall- ing incandescent metal droplets can cause burns. Wear suitable protective cloth- ing, no synthetic garments. Do not look into the electric arc without eye protection; only use a welding mask with the prescribed protective glass as per DIN. In addition to light and heat radiation, which can dazzle or cause burns, the elec- tric arc also emits UV radiation. Without suitable protection the invisible ultraviolet radiation can cause very painful conjunc- tivitis which is not apparent until several hours later. Furthermore, UV radiation can cause burns with sunburn-like effects on unprotected parts of the body. Any persons in the vicinity of the electric arc or helpers must also be informed of the dangers and be equipped with the necessary protective equipment. Safety instructionsGB/IE/NI/CY/MT12 Safety instructions If necessary, set up protective walls. Ensure an adequate supply of fresh air whilst welding, particularly in small spaces, as it produces smoke and harmful gases. No welding work may be carried out on containers that have been used for storing gases, fuels, mineral oils or similar – even if they have been empty for a long time – as possible residues may present a risk of explosion. Special regulations apply in rooms where there is a risk of fire or explosion. Welded joints that are subject to heavy stress loads and are required to comply with certain safety requirements may only be carried out by specially trained and certified welders. Examples of this are pressure vessels, running rails, tow bars, etc. ATTENTION! Always connect the earth terminal as close as possible to the point of weld to provide the shortest possible path for the welding current from the electrode to the earth terminal. Never connect the earth terminal to the housing of the welding device! Never connect the earth terminal to earthed parts far away from the workpiece, e.g. a water pipe in another corner of the room. This could otherwise damage the protec- tive bonding system of the room you are welding. Do not use the welding device in the rain. Do not use the welding device in a moist environment. Only place the welding device on a level surface. The outlet is measured at an ambient temperature of 20°C and welding time can be reduced in the event of higher temperatures. Risk of electric shock: Electric shock from the welding electrode can be fatal. Do not weld in rain or snow. Wear dry insulating gloves. Do not touch the electrodes with bare hands. Do not wear wet or damaged gloves. Protect yourself from electric shock with insulation against the workpiece. Do not open the device housing. Danger from welding fumes: Inhalation of welding fumes can endanger health. Do not keepGB/IE/NI/CY/MT 13 Safety instructions your head in the fumes. Use the equipment in open areas. Use extractors to remove the fumes. Danger from welding sparks: Welding sparks can cause an explosion or fire. Keep flam- mable substances away from the welding location. Do not weld next to flammable substances. Welding sparks can cause fires. Keep a fire extin

guisher close by and an observer should be present to be able to use it immediately. Do not weld on drums or any other closed containers. Danger from arc beams: Arc beams can damage your eyes and injure your skin. Wear a hat and safety goggles. Wear hearing protection and high, closed shirt collars. Wear a welding safety helmet and make sure that the fil

ter setting is right. Wear complete body protection. Danger from electro magnetic fields Welding current generates electro

magnetic fields. Do not use if you have a medical implant. Never wrap the welding cable around your body. Guide welding cables together. z Welding mask-specific safety instructions With the help of a bright light source (e.g. lighter) examine the proper functioning of the welding mask prior to starting with any welding work. Weld spatters can damage the protective screen. Immediately replace damaged or scratched protective screens. Immediately replace damaged or highly contaminated or splattered components. The device must only be oper- ated by people over the age of 16. Please familiarise yourself with the welding safety instructions. Also refer to the safety instruc

tions of your welding device. Always wear a welding mask while welding. If it is not used, you could sustain severe lesions to the retina. Always wear protective clothing during welding operations.GB/IE/NI/CY/MT14 Safety instructions Never use the welding mask without the protective screen because this could damage the optical unit. Regularly replace the protective screen to ensure good visibility and fatigue-proof work. z Environment with increased electrical hazard Environments with increased electrical hazard may be encountered, for example: In workplaces where the space for movement is restricted, such that the operator is working in a forced posture (e.g.: kneeling, sitting, lying) and is touching electrically conductive parts; In workplaces which are restricted completely or in part in terms of electrical conductivity and where there is a high risk through avoidable or accidental touching by the operator; In wet, humid or hot work- places where the air humidity or weld significantly reduces the resistance of human skin and the insulating properties or effect of protective equipment. Even a metal conductor or scaffolding can create an environment with increased electrical hazard. When using welding devices under electrically dangerous con- ditions, the output voltage of the welding device must be greater than 35 volt when idling (effec- tive value). Based on the output voltage this welding device may not be used in these conditions. z Welding in tight spaces When welding in tight spaces this may pose a hazard through toxic gases (risk of suffocation). In tight spaces the device may only be operated if there are trained indi- viduals in the immediate vicinity who can intervene if necessary. In this case, before starting to use the welding device, an expert must carry out an assessment in order to determine what steps are necessary, in order to guarantee safety at work and which pre- cautionary measures should be taken during the actual welding procedure.GB/IE/NI/CY/MT 15 Safety instructions z Total of open circuit voltages When more than one welding current source is operated at the same time, their open circuit voltages may add up and lead to an increased electrical hazard. The welding current sources must be clearly marked with their individual control units and connections, in order to be able to identify which device belongs to which circuit. z Protective clothing At work, the welder must protect his/her whole body by using appropriate clothing and face protection against radiations and burns. The following steps must be observed: - Wear protective clothing prior to welding work. - Wear gloves. - Open windows or use a fan to guarantee air supply. - Wear safety glasses and a face mask. Gauntlet gloves made of a suitable material (leather) must be worn on both hands. They must be in perfect condition. A suitable apron must be worn to protect clothing from flying sparks and burns. When specific work, e.g. overhead welding, is required, a protective suit must be worn and, if necessary, even head protection. z Protection against rays and burns Warn of the danger to the eyes by hanging up a sign saying “Caution! Do not look into flames!”. The workplaces must be shielded so that the persons in the vicinity are protected. Unauthorised persons must be kept away from welding work. The walls in the immediate vicinity of fixed workplaces should neither be bright coloured or shiny. Windows up to head height must be protected to prevent rays from penetrating or reflecting through them, e.g. by using suitable paint.GB/IE/NI/CY/MT16 z EMC Device Classification As per the standard IEC 60974-10, this welding device is a welding unit with class B electromagnetic compat- ibility. Thus it complies with the corresponding requirements for commercial and domestic use. In residential areas, it can be connected to the public low- voltage supply network. Even if the welding device complies with the emission limit values of the standard, arc welding devices can still result in electro- magnetic interferences in sensitive systems and devices. The operator is responsible for malfunctions that occur through the arc while welding and must take suitable protective measures. In doing so, the operator must consider the following: – network, control, signal and telecommunication lines – computers and other micro- processor-controlled devices – TVs, radios and other playback devices – electronic and electrical safety equipment – people with cardiac pace- makers or hearing aids – measurement and calibration devices – interference immunity of other equipment nearby – the time at which the welding work is carried out. The following is recommended to reduce possible interference radiation: – equip the mains connection with a mains filter – the welding device must be regularly maintained and kept in a good condition – welding cables should be completely uncoiled and run as close to parallel with the floor as possible – devices and systems that are compromised by the inter- ference radiation must be removed from the welding area or shielded. z Before use Take all parts from the packaging and check whether the arc welder or parts show any damage. If this is the case, do not use the arc welder. Contact the manufacturer via the indicated service address. Remove all protective films and other transport packaging. Check that the delivery is complete. Safety instructions / Before useGB/IE/NI/CY/MT 17 Mounting / Using the device z Mounting z Fit welding mask Fit the handle

must be pushed in at the top. Note: If it is not possible to push the protective glass

in fully, then press gently on the protective glass

from the outside. z Using the device z Welding preparation Note: If you adjust the current, check whether the manual wheel

can still move and that the lead screw is not jammed. Note: If the clamping force of the electrode holder

and the earth terminal

decreases, replace these immediately. Connect the power cable. Set the ON/OFF switch

to the “ON” position. The power indicator lights up, the procedure can start. To stop the procedure, set the ON/ OFF switch

to the “OFF” position. Note: If the yellow control lamp

lights up, then this indicates overheating. The power circuit is shut off automati- cally. The procedure is stopped. Attach the earth terminal

straight onto the workpiece or to the base on which the workpiece is positioned. Note: Make sure that there is direct contact with the workpiece. You should therefore avoid lacquered surfaces and/ or insulating materials. Note: The welding mask

must always be used during welding operations. It protects the eyes from the light radia- tion emitted by the arc and therefore permits a clear view of the workpiece. Note: The weldable material thickness is 1.5 - 3.0 mm. z Welding Once you have connected all the elec- trical connections for the power supply as well as for the welding current circuit, proceed as follows: Insert the non-coated end of the electrode into the electrode holder

and connect the earth terminal

with the workpiece. Please ensure good electrical conductivity. The device has a detent to set the electrode thickness. Switch the device on by setting the ON/OFF switch

to the “ON” position. Then select the electrode thickness using the manual wheel

to the 1.6 / 2.0 position. For 2.5 mm electrodes set the manual wheel

to the 2.5 position. Hold the welding mask

in front of your face and guide the tip of the electrode over the workpiece as if you were going to strike a match. This is the best way to ignite the arc. Use a sample to test whether you have the right electrode and current strength on a sample. ATTENTION! Do not dab the workpiece with the electrode. It could be damaged and it could be more difficult to ignite theGB/IE/NI/CY/MT18 Using the device / Maintenance / Information about recycling and disposal arc. As soon as the arc is ignited, try to maintain a gap from the workpiece, which is equivalent to the diameter of the electrode used. The gap should remain as constant as possible while you are welding. The angle of the electrode in the direction of operation should be 20–30 degrees. ATTENTION! Always use pliers to remove used electrodes or move hot workpieces. Please note that the electrode holder must always be placed onto an insulated base after welding. The slag can only be removed from the seam once it has cooled down. If welding continues on an intermittent weld seam, then the slag should be removed at the point of attachment first. ATTENTION! Welding generates heat. For this reason, after use the welding device must be allowed to idle for at least half an hour. Alternatively, let the device cool off for an hour. The device can only be packed and stored once the device temperature has returned to normal. Switch the device OFF by setting the ON/OFF switch

to the “OFF” position. z Overload protection The welding device is protected against overheating by means of an automatic protection device. Allow the device to cool down (approx. 15 min.) for the activation of the protection device. As soon as the control lamp

goes out, the device is ready for operation again. PESG 120 B4 (with AC 230 V 50Hz EU mains plug) The fuses of the supply lines to the power sockets must comply with the regulations (VDE 0100). Safety sockets must be fused with max. 16A (type and technical specifications: NDM1-63, AC 230 / 400 V C16. IEC 60898. slow blow trigger. Manufacturer: Nader) (fuses or Miniature circuit-breakers). Higher levels of fuse protection can result in cable fire or structural fire damage. Attention: The device must be connected to a power source with the fuse as specified above. If the electrode holder and earth terminal are short circuited, the fuse can trigger in 16-20seconds. Classification in accord- ance with the EMC Directive: Class B in accordance with IEC 60974-10. z Maintenance Remove dust and contamination from the device regularly. Clean the device and accessories with a fine brush or a dry cloth. z Information about recycling and disposal Don’t throw away – recycle! Please return this device, accessories and packaging to your local recycling depot. Do not dispose of the arc welder in household waste, in fire or in water.
