Keep the packaging material away from small children. There is a risk of suffocation! 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 or/and maintenance work must only be carried out by qualified electricians. Only use the weld cable provided 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. Make 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 opera- tion, 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. Introduction / Safety instructions9GB/IE/NI/CY/MT 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. Do not weld on containers, vessels or tubes that contain or contained flammable 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 be 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 fas- tened to the supplied welding mask. Wear gloves and dry protective clothing that are free of oil and grease to protect the skin from exposure to ultravio- let radiation of the arc.

Do not use the welding power 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 rel- atively 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 harmful 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 Safety instructions10 GB/IE/NI/CY/MT consumers may experience problems with the voltage sup- ply depending 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. 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 accord- ing to national and local regulations. In the event of accidents, disconnect the welding device from the mains voltage immediately. If electrical contact voltages occur, switch off the device immediately and 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 (no-load voltage of the welding current circuit), harmful radiations (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 falling 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 electric arc also emits UV radiation. Without suitable protection the invisible ultravi- olet radiation can cause very Safety instructions11GB/IE/NI/CY/MT painful conjunctivitis which is not apparent until several hours later. Furthermore, UV radiation can cause burns with sunburn-like effects on unpro- tected 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. 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 dam- age the protective 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 output is rated at an ambi- ent temperature of 20°C. The welding time can be reduced at 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 Safety instructions12 GB/IE/NI/CY/MT 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 keep 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 flammable substances away from the welding location. Do not weld next to flammable substances. Welding sparks can cause fires. Keep a fire extinguisher 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 welding safety helmets and make sure you use the appropriate filter settings. Wear complete body protection. Danger from electromagnetic fields: Welding current generates elec- tromagnetic 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 operated by people over the age of 16. Safety instructions13GB/IE/NI/CY/MT 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 cloth- ing during welding operations. Never use the welding mask without the protective screen. Regularly replace the protec- tive screen to ensure good visibility and fatigue-proof work. z Environment with increased electrical hazard When welding in environments with increased electrical hazard, the following safety instructions must be observed. Environments with increased electrical hazard may be encountered, for example: In workplaces where the space for movement is restricted, such that the welder 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 welder; 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 equip- ment. Even a metal conductor or scaffolding can create an environment with increased electrical hazard. In this type of environment, insulated mats and pads must be used. Furthermore gauntlet gloves and head protection made of leather or other insulating materials must be worn to insu- late the body against Earth. The welding power source must be located outside the working area or electrically conductive surfaces and out of the welder’s reach. Additional protection against a shock from the mains power in the event a fault can be provided by using a fault-circuit interrupter, Safety instructions14 GB/IE/NI/CY/MT which is operated with a leakage current of no more than 30 mA and covers all mains-powered devices in close proximity. The fault-circuit interrupter must be suitable for all types of current. There must be means of rapid electrical isolation of the welding power source or the welding cir- cuit (e.g. emergency stop device) which are easily accessible. When using welding devices under electrically dangerous conditions, the output voltage of the welding device must be greater than 113 volt when idling (peak value). Based on the output voltage this welding device may 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 you may only weld if there are trained individu- als in the immediate vicinity who can intervene if necessary. In this case, before starting the welding procedure, an expert must carry out an assessment in order to determine what steps are neces- sary, in order to guarantee safety at work and which precautionary measures should be taken during the actual welding procedure. z Total of open circuit voltages When more than one welding power source is operated at the same time, their open circuit voltages may add up and lead to an increased electrical hazard. Welding power sources must be connected in such a way that the danger is minimised. The indi- vidual welding power sources, with their individual control units and connections, must be clearly marked, in order to be able to identify which device belongs to which welding power circuit. z Using shoulder straps Welding must not take place if the welding power source is being carried e.g. with a shoulder strap. This is intended to prevent: The risk of losing your balance if the lines or hoses which are connected are pulled The increased risk of an electric shock as the welder Safety instructions15GB/IE/NI/CY/MT comes into contact with the earth if he/she is using a Class I welding power source, the housing of which is earthed through its conductor. z Protective clothing

At work, the welder must protect his/her whole body by using appropriate clothing and face protection against radia- tions and burns. The following steps must be observed: Wear protective clothing prior to welding work Wear gloves. Open windows or use fans to guarantee air supply. Wear safety goggles and 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. Protection against rays andburns 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. z EMC Device Classification According to the standard IEC 60974-10, this is a weld- ing device in electromagnetic compatibility Class A. Class A devices are devices that are suitable for use in all other areas except living areas and areas that are directly connected to a low-voltage supply mains that (also) supplies residential buildings. Class A devices Safety instructions16 GB/IE/NI/CY/MT mustadhere to the Class A limit values. WARNING NOTICE: Class A devices are intended for use in an industrial environment. Due to the power-related as well as the radiated interference variables, difficulties might arise in ensuring electromagnetic compatibility in other environments. Even if the device complies with the emission limit values in accordance with the standard, such devices can still cause electromagnetic interference in sensitive systems and devices. The user is responsible for faults caused by the arc while working, and the user must take suitable protective measures. In doing so, the operator must consider the following: – network, control, signal and telecommunication lines – computers and other micropro- cessor-controlled devices – TVs, radios and other playback devices – electronic and electrical safety equipment – people with cardiac pacemak- ers or hearing aids – measurement and calibration devices – interference immunity of other equipment nearby – the time of day at which the work is being done. The follow- ing is recommended to reduce possible interference radiation: – equip the mains connection with a mains filter – service the device regularly and keep it in good condition – welding cables should be completely uncoiled and run as close to parallel with the floor as possible – if possible, devices and systems at risk from interference radi- ation should be removed from the work area or shielded. The product is intended solely for professional use. z Before use Take the device and accessories out of the packaging and check them for damage (e.g. transport damage). Fix the carrying strap

z Using the device Note: The welding device is designed for welding with electrodes. Use the electrode holder clamps with- out protruding bracket screws, which meet the current safety standards. Make sure that the ON/OFF switch

is set to position “O” (“OFF”) or that the power cable

is not plugged into the socket. Connect the welding cable accord- ing to its polarity and in accordance with the specifications of the elec- trode manufacturer. To do this, connect the connector of the earth terminal

(black) with the relevant output on the inverter welder (black, marked with “-”). Connect the connector of the elec- trode holder

(red) with the relevant output on the inverter welder (red, marked with “+”). Put on appropriate protective clothing in accordance with the specifications and prepare your workspace. Connect the earth terminal

to the workpiece. Clamp the electrode into the elec- trode holder

Switch the device on by setting the ON/OFF switch to the

“I” (“ON”) position. Adjust the welding current using the rotary knob

depending on the electrode being used. Note: See the following table for information on the welding current to be used, depending on the electrode diameter. Ø Electrode Welding current

Attention: Do not bring the earth terminal

and the electrode holder

electrodes into direct contact with one another. Attention: When welding with electrodes (MMA – manual metal arc welding – electrode welding), the electrodeholder

and the earth terminal

must be connected in accordance with the specifications of the electrodes to plus (+) or minus (-). Hold the welding mask

in front of the face and start the welding procedure. To stop the procedure, set the ON/ OFF switch

to “O” (“OFF”) position. ATTENTION! When the thermal sensor is triggered, the yellow control lamp

lights up. In this case, it will not be possible to continue welding. The device will remain in operation so that the fan can cool the device. As soon as the device is ready for operation again, the yellow control lamp

will switch off automati- cally. The welding function can now be used again. ATTENTION! Make sure that you do not rub the electrodes. Doing this can damage the workpiece and make it more difficult to ignite the arc. After the arc is ignited, maintain the correct gap from the workpiece. The distance should be appropriate to the diameter of the Fit welding mask / Using the device18 GB/IE/NI/CY/MT electrode used. When welding maintain this gap as accurately and consistently as possibly. The angle between the electrode and the direction of operation should be between 20° and 30°. ATTENTION! The welding clamp and welding elec- trodes must be placed on the insulated bracket after welding. Wait until the electrode is cooled before removing the welding slag. To weld an intermittent weld seam again you must first remove the welding slag at the welding posi- tion. ATTENTION! A voltage which is 10% below the rated input voltage of the welding device can have the following consequences: The power to the device will reduce. The arc stops or becomes unstable. ATTENTION! The arc radiation can lead to inflam- mation of the eyes and skin burns. Casting and welding slag can cause eye injuries and burns. Wear tinted safety goggles or a protective mask. The safety mask must meet the EN175 safety standards. It is essential that you only use the welding cable which is included with the delivery (10mm

z Welding Choose between push and drag welding. The following section shows the impact of the direction of movement on the properties of the weld seam: Push welding Drag welding Burn smaller larger Weld seam width larger smaller Weld bead flatter higher Weld seam fault larger smaller Note: You decide for yourself which type of welding is most suitable, once you have welded a sample piece. Note: Once it has worn down com- pletely, the electrode must be replaced. Using the device / Welding19GB/IE/NI/CY/MT z Maintenance and cleaning Note: The welding device must be regularly serviced and overhauled for proper function and for compliance with the safety requirements.
