PERSONAL AND PERSONAL PROTECTION INDIVIDUAL AND OTHER

Arc welding can be dangerous and cause serious or even fatal injuries.

Welding exposes people to a dangerous source of heat, radiation from the arc, electromagnetic fields (beware of pacemaker wearers), risk of electrocution, noise and gaseous fumes.

To protect yourself and others, observe the following safety instructions:

To protect yourself from burns and radiation, wear clothing that is cuffless, insulating, dry, fireproof and in good condition, and that covers the whole body.

Use gloves that guarantee electrical and thermal insulation.

Use welding protection and/or a welding bonnet with a sufficient level of protection (depending on the application). Protect your eyes during cleaning operations. Contact lenses in particular are not recommended.

It is sometimes necessary to delimit areas with fireproof curtains to protect the welding zone from the rays of the arc, projections and incandescent waste.

Inform people in the welding zone not to stare at the rays of the arc or molten parts and to wear appropriate clothing to protect themselves.

Use noise-cancelling headphones if the welding process produces a noise level in excess of the authorised limit (the same applies to anyone in the welding area).

Keep hands, hair and clothing away from moving parts (fan).

Never remove the cooling unit housing protectors when the welding current source is live, as the manufacturer cannot be held responsible in the event of an accident.

Parts that have just been welded are hot and can cause burns when handled. When servicing the torch or electrode holder, ensure that it is sufficiently cold by waiting at least 10 minutes before servicing. The cooling unit must be switched on when using a water-cooled torch to ensure that the liquid cannot cause burns.

It is important to secure the work area before leaving it in order to protect people and property.

WELDING FUMES AND GASES

The fumes, gases and dusts emitted by welding are hazardous to health. Sufficient ventilation must be provided, and an air supply is sometimes necessary. A fresh-air mask can be a solution if ventilation is inadequate.

Check that the extraction system is effective by checking it against safety standards.

Warning: welding in small spaces requires supervision from a safe distance. In addition, soldering certain materials containing lead, cadmium, zinc or mercury, or even beryllium, can be particularly harmful.

Cylinders must be stored in open or well-ventilated premises. They should be in an upright position and held on a support or trolley.

Welding should not be carried out near grease or paint.

RISK OF FIRE AND EXPLOSION

Fully protect the welding area; flammable materials must be at least 11 metres away. Fire-fighting equipment must be available in the vicinity of welding operations.

Beware of hot material or sparks, as even through cracks they can be a source of fire or explosion.

Keep people, flammable objects and pressurised containers at a safe distance.

Do not weld in closed containers or tubes, and if they are open, empty them of all flammable or explosive materials (oil, fuel, gas residues, etc.).

Do not grind in the direction of the welding current source or flammable materials.

GAS CYLINDERS

The gas coming out of the cylinders can be a source of suffocation if concentrated in the welding area (ventilate well).

Cylinders must be transported in complete safety, with the cylinders closed and the welding current source switched off. They must be stored vertically and held by a support to limit the risk of falling.

Close the cylinder between uses. Beware of temperature variations and exposure to sunlight.

The cylinder must not come into contact with a flame, electric arc, torch, earth clamp or any other source of heat or incandescence.

Keep away from electrical and welding circuits and never weld a cylinder under pressure.

When opening the cylinder valve, keep the head away from the fittings and ensure that the gas used is suitable for the welding process.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

The electrical network used must be earthed. Use the fuse size recommended on the rating plate.

An electric shock can be a source of serious direct or indirect accident, or even death.

Never touch live parts inside or outside the live current source (torches, clamps, cables, electrodes) as these are connected to the welding circuit.

Before opening the welding current source, disconnect it from the mains and wait 2 minutes. so that all the capacitors are discharged.

Do not touch the torch or electrode holder and the earth clamp at the same time.

If the cables or torches are damaged, they should be replaced by qualified and authorised personnel. Size the cable cross-section to suit the application. Always use dry clothing in good condition to insulate yourself from the welding circuit. Wear insulating footwear in all working environments.

CEM CLASSIFICATION OF EQUIPMENT

This Class A equipment is not intended for use in a residential site where the electrical current is supplied by the public low-voltage supply network. There may be potential difficulties in ensuring electromagnetic compatibility in such sites, due to conducted, as well as radiated, radio frequency interference.

Provided that the impedance of the public low voltage supply network at the point of common coupling is less than Zmax = 0.450 Ohms, this equipment complies with IEC 61000-3-11 and may be connected to the public low voltage supply networks. It is the responsibility of the installer or user of the equipment to ensure, by consulting the distribution network operator if necessary, that the network impedance complies with the impedance restrictions.

This equipment complies with IEC 61000-3-12.

ELECTRO-MAGNETICS

Electric current passing through any conductor produces localised electric and magnetic fields (EMF). Welding current produces an electromagnetic field around the welding circuit and welding equipment.

Electromagnetic EMF fields can interfere with certain medical implants, such as pacemakers. Protective measures must be taken for people with medical implants. For example, access restrictions for bystanders or an individual risk assessment for welders.

All welders should use the following procedures to minimise exposure to electromagnetic fields from the welding circuit:

• position the welding cables together - secure them with a clamp, if possible;
  •position themselves (torso and head) as far away from the welding circuit as possible;
• never wrap the welding cables around the body;
  •do not position the body between the welding cables. Hold both welding cables on the same side of the body;
• connect the return cable to the workpiece as close as possible to the area to be welded;
• do not work next to the welding power source, do not sit on it or lean against it;
• do not weld when transporting the welding power source or the wire feeder.

Pacemaker wearers should consult a physician before using this equipment.

Exposure to electromagnetic fields during welding may have other health effects that are not yet known.

RECOMMENDATIONS FOR ASSESSING THE WELDING AREA AND INSTALLATION

General

The user is responsible for installing and using the arc welding equipment in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. If electromagnetic interference is detected, it must be the responsibility of the user of the arc welding equipment to resolve the situation with the manufacturer's technical assistance. In some cases, this corrective action may be as simple as earthing the welding circuit. In other cases, it may be necessary to construct an electromagnetic shield around the welding current source and the entire workpiece, with input filters fitted. In all cases, electromagnetic interference should be reduced until it is no longer a nuisance.

Assessment of the welding area

Before installing any arc welding equipment, the user should assess the potential electromagnetic problems in the surrounding area. The following should be considered:

a) the presence above, below and adjacent to the arc welding equipment of other power, control, signalling and telephone cables;
b) radio and television receivers and transmitters;
c) computers and other control equipment;
d) safety-critical equipment, e.g. protection of industrial equipment;
e) the health of neighbouring persons, e.g. use of pacemakers or hearing aids;
f) equipment used for calibration or measurement;
g) the immunity of other equipment in the environment.
The user must ensure that other equipment used in the environment is compatible. This may require additional protective measures;
h) the time of day when welding or other activities are to be carried out.

The size of the surrounding area to be taken into account depends on the structure of the building and other activities taking place within it. The surrounding area may extend beyond the boundaries of the facilities.

Welding facility assessment

In addition to the area assessment, the arc welding facility assessment can be used to identify and resolve cases of disturbance. The assessment of emissions should include in situ measurements as specified in Article 10 of CISPR 11. In situ measurements can also be used to confirm the effectiveness of mitigation measures.

RECOMMENDATIONS ON METHODS OF REDUCING ELECTROMAGNETIC EMISSIONS

a. Public mains supply: Arc welding equipment should be connected to the public mains supply in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations. If interference occurs, it may be necessary to take additional preventive measures such as filtering the public power supply. It is advisable to envisage shielding of the supply cable in metal conduit or equivalent from permanently installed arc welding equipment. The electrical continuity of the shielding must be ensured along its entire length. The shield should be connected to the welding power source to ensure good electrical contact between the conduit and the enclosure of the welding power source.
b. Maintenance of arc welding equipment: Arc welding equipment should be subject to routine maintenance in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations. All accesses, service doors and covers should be closed and properly locked when the arc welding equipment is in use. Arc welding equipment should not be modified in any way other than those modifications and adjustments specified in the manufacturer's instructions. In particular, the arc splitter of arc starting and stabilising devices should be adjusted and maintained in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations.
c. Welding cables: Cables should be as short as possible, laid close together near the floor or on the floor.
d. Equipotential bonding: Consideration should be given to bonding all metal objects in the surrounding area. However, metal objects connected to the part to be welded increase the risk of electric shock to the operator if he touches both these metal elements and the electrode. The operator should be isolated from such metal objects.
e. Earthing the workpiece: Where the workpiece to be welded is not earthed for electrical safety or because of its size and location, for example ship hulls or structural steel in buildings, an earthed connection to the workpiece may, in some but not all cases, reduce emissions. Care should be taken to avoid earthing parts which could increase the risk of injury to users or damage to other electrical equipment. If necessary, the connection of the part to be welded to earth should be made directly, but in some countries where this direct connection is not permitted, the connection should be made with an appropriate capacitor chosen in accordance with national regulations.
f. Protection and shielding: Selective protection and shielding of other cables and equipment in the surrounding area can limit interference problems. Protection of the entire welding area may be considered for special applications.

TRANSPORT AND TRANSIT OF WELDING CURRENT SOURCE

Do not use the cables or torch to move the welding current source. It must be moved in a vertical position. Do not run the current source over people or objects.

Never lift a gas cylinder and the welding current source at the same time. Their transport standards are different. It is preferable to remove the wire spool before lifting or transporting the welding power source.

INSTALLATION OF EQUIPMENT

• Place the welding power source on a floor with a maximum gradient of 10^ .
• Provide sufficient space to ventilate the welding power source and access the controls.
• Do not use in an environment containing conductive metal dust.
• The welding power source must be protected from driving rain and must not be exposed to direct sunlight.
  •The equipment has an IP23S degree of protection, meaning:
• protection against access to dangerous parts of solid bodies with a diameter >12.5 mm and,
• protection against rain directed at 60° to the vertical when its moving parts (fan) are stationary.
  This equipment can therefore be stored outdoors in accordance with the IP23S degree of protection.

Stray welding currents can destroy earth conductors, damage electrical equipment and devices and cause components to overheat, leading to fire.

• All welding connections must be firmly connected and checked regularly!
• Ensure that the workpiece is securely fastened and free from electrical problems!
• Attach or suspend all electrically conductive parts of the welding source such as the chassis, trolley and lifting systems so that they are insulated!
• Do not place other equipment such as drills, grinding devices, etc. on the welding source, trolley or lifting systems unless they are insulated!
• Always place welding torches or electrode holders on an insulated surface when not in use!

Power supply, extension and welding cables must be completely unwound to avoid overheating.

The manufacturer accepts no responsibility for damage to persons or property caused by incorrect and dangerous use of this equipment.

• Maintenance must only be carried out by a qualified person. Annual maintenance is recommended.
• Switch off the power supply by pulling the plug and wait two minutes before working on the equipment. The voltages and currents inside are high and dangerous.

•Regularly remove the cover and blow off the dust. Take the opportunity to have the electrical connections checked with an insulated tool by qualified personnel.
- Regularly check the condition of the power cord. If the power cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its after-sales service or a similarly qualified person, to avoid any danger.
- Leave the welding power source vents free for air intake and exhaust.
- Do not use this welding current source to defrost pipes, recharge batteries/accumulators or start motors.

INSTALLATION - OPERATION PRODUCT

Only experienced personnel authorised by the manufacturer may carry out the installation. During installation, make sure that the generator is disconnected from the mains. Do not connect the generator in series or in parallel. It is recommended to use the welding cables supplied with the equipment in order to obtain optimum product settings.

POWER SUPPLY-START-UP

- The 230 V model is supplied with a 16 A CEE7/7 type plug and must only be used on a 230 V (50 - 60 Hz) single-phase, three-wire electrical installation with an earthed neutral conductor.

•The 208/240 V model is supplied without a plug and must only be used on a single-phase 208-240 V (50-60 Hz) three-wire electrical installation with an earthed neutral conductor.

The effective absorbed current (I1eff) is indicated on the appliance for maximum operating conditions. Check that the power supply and its protection (fuse and/or circuit breaker) are compatible with the current required during use. In some countries, it may be necessary to change the plug to enable use under maximum conditions.

• The power source is designed to operate on an electrical voltage of 230 V -20% +15%. It goes into protection if the supply voltage is less than 185 Vrms or more than 265 Vrms (a fault code will appear on the display).

- It starts by pressing the START/STOP switch (ON) and stops by pressing the same switch (OFF). Warning! Never switch off the power supply when the unit is under load.

CONNECTION TO GENERATOR

This equipment can operate with generators provided that the auxiliary power meets the following requirements:

- The voltage must be alternating, with an RMS value of 230 V -20% +15%, and a peak voltage of less than 400 V,

- The frequency must be between 50 and 60 Hz.

It is essential to check these conditions, as many generators produce high voltage peaks which can damage the equipment.

USE OF EXTENSION LEAD

All extension leads must be of a length and cross-section appropriate for the voltage of the equipment. Use an extension lead which complies with national regulations.

Input voltage Length - Section of extension lead (Length < 45m)
230 V 2.5 mm ^2
208/240 V 4 mm	^2 (AWG 12)

INSTALLATION OF COIL

• Loosen the knob as far as it will go and lower it.
• Insert the wire, then close the motorised winder and tighten the knob as indicated.
• Press the torch trigger to activate the motor, a procedure will be displayed on the screen.

Notes:

•A sheath that is too narrow can cause unwinding problems and overheating of the motor.

•The torch connector must also be tight to avoid overheating.
•Make sure that neither the wire nor the spool touches the mechanics of the device, otherwise there is a risk of short-circuit.

RISK OF INJURY FROM MOVING PARTS

Wire feeders have moving parts that can catch hands, hair, clothes or tools and cause injury!

• Do not touch rotating or moving components or drive parts!
• Ensure that housing covers or protective covers remain closed during operation!
• Do not wear gloves when threading the filler wire or changing the filler wire spool.

SEMI- AUTOMATIC WELDING IN STEEL/STEEL (MIG MODE) AUTOMATIC WELDING IN STEEL/STAINLESS STEEL (MAG MODE)

The equipment can weld steel and stainless steel wire from ∅ 0.6 to 1.0 mm (I-A).

Use in steel requires a specific welding gas (Ar+CO2). The proportion of CO2 may vary according to the type of gas used. For stainless steel, use a 2% CO2 mixture. When welding with pure CO2, it is necessary to connect agas preheater to the gas cylinder. For specific gas requirements, please contact your gas distributor. The gas flow rate for steel is between 8 and 15 litres / minute, depending on the environment. To check the gas flow rate on the manometer without unwinding the filler wire, press and hold the n°1 push-button and follow the procedure on the screen. This check should be carried out periodically to ensure optimum welding performance. Refer to the HMI manual.

• Use specific rollers for steel/stainless steel welding.
• Use the capillary tube (designed to guide the wire between the wire feeder rollers and the EURO connector) only for steel/stainless steel welding (I-B).
• Use a special steel/stainless steel torch.
• Contact tube: use a SPECIAL steel/stainless steel contact tube corresponding to the diameter of the wire.

SEMI-AUTOMATIC WELDING IN ALUMINIUM (MIG MODE)

The equipment can weld aluminium wire from ∅ 0.8 to 1.2 mm (I-B).

Use with aluminium requires a specific pure argon gas (Ar). The contact tube, roller groove and torch sheath are designed for this application. Ask your gas distributor for advice on the choice of gas. The gas flow rate for aluminium is between 15 and 20 l/min, depending on the environment and the welder's experience.

When using red or blue sheath (aluminium welding), we recommend using accessory 90950 (I-C). This stainless steel sheath guide improves sheath centring and facilitates wire flow.

Video

• Use specific rollers for aluminium welding.
• Apply minimum pressure to the motorised winder pressure rollers to avoid crushing the wire.
• Use a special aluminium torch. This torch has a Teflon sheath to reduce friction. DO NOT cut the sheath at the edge of the fitting! This sheath is used to guide the wire from the rollers.
• Contact tube: use a SPÉCIAL alu contact tube corresponding to the diameter of the wire.

SEMI-AUTOMATIC WELDING IN CUSI AND CUAL (BRASHING MODE)

The equipment can weld CuSi and CuAl wire of ∅ 0.8 and 1.0 mm.

In the same way as for steel, the capillary tube must be fitted and a torch with a steel sheath must be used. When brazing, pure argon (Ar) must be used.

GAS CONNECTION

• Fit a suitable pressure reducer to the gas cylinder. Connect it to the welding unit using the hose supplied. Fit the clamps to prevent leaks.
• Make sure the gas cylinder is securely held in place by securing the chain to the generator.
• Adjust the gas flow rate by turning the knob on the pressure regulator.
  NB: to make it easier to adjust the gas flow rate, activate the motorised reel rollers by pressing the torch trigger (loosen the motorised reel brake knob to avoid dragging the wire). Maximum gas pressure: 0.5 MPa (5 bar).

This procedure does not apply to welding in "No Gas" mode.

2 WELDING MODES

•Welding (continuous)

- Chain-stitch

This welding mode is used to join very thin sheet metal, limiting the risk of piercing and distorting the sheet. Chain-stitch welding is performed manually using the trigger.

EXPERT

TACKING MODE

- Spot

This welding mode is used to pre-assemble parts before welding. Tacking can be manual using the trigger or timed with a predefined tacking delay. This tacking time ensures better reproducibility and non-oxidised points.

- Spot-Delay

This is a tacking mode similar to Spot, but with a sequence of tacks and a defined stop time as long as the trigger is held down. This function can be used to weld very thin steel or aluminium sheets, limiting the risk of drilling and deformation of the sheet (especially for aluminium welding).
