Do not allow children to play with the appliance. Cleaning and user maintenance should not be performed by children without supervision.

■ Only have repairs and / or maintenance performed by electrically skilled persons.
■ Only use the welding cables included (PISG 80 A3, H01N2-D1x10 mm²).
■ During use the equipment should not be located directly

against a wall, be covered, or be jammed between other equipment to ensure ample air can be taken in through the ventilation louvres. Verify the equipment is correctly connected to the mains voltage. Avoid any tensile load on the mains. Unplug the mains plug from the socket before transferring the equipment to a different location.

■ Always switch the equipment off with the ON / OFF switch when not in use. Set the electrode holder down on an insulated pad and allow to cool for 15 minutes before removing the electrodes from the holder.
- Pay attention to the condition of the welding cables, the electrode holders and the earth terminals. Worn insulation and conducting parts can produce hazards and reduce the welding quality.
- Arc welding produces sparks, melted metal parts and smoke. Therefore note: Remove any flammable substances and / or materials from the work area and its immediate surroundings.
■ Ensure the work area is ventilated.

- Do not weld atop containers, receptacles or pipes, which do or did contain flammable liquids or gasses.

WARNING Avoid any direct contact with the welding circuit. The no-load voltage between the electrode holder and earth terminal can be dangerous, there is a risk of electric shock.

- Do not store or use the equipment in a moist or wet environment or in the rain. The Protection Provision IP21S applies in this respect.

■ Protect the eyes with the appropriate safety glass (DIN Grad 9-10) to be installed in the included welding shield. Use gloves and dry protective clothing free from oil and grease to protect the skin from ultraviolet rays and the arc.

WARNING Do not use the welding power source to thaw pipes.

a relatively long time. Therefore do not touch the work piece with bare hands.

• Arc welding releases noxious fumes. Be careful not to inhale these as best possible.
  ■ Protect yourself from the dangerous effects of the arc and keep persons not involved in the work at least 2 m away from the arc.

ATTENTION!

■ Depending on mains conditions at the connection point, operating the welding equipment may interfere with the voltage supply for other loads. When in doubt, please contact your power supply company.

- Operating the welding equipment may interfere with the functionality of other devices, e.g. hearing aids, pacemakers, etc.

• Safety hazards during arc welding

Remember:

■ The arc ray can damage the eyes and cause burns to the skin.
- Arc welding produces sparks and drops of molten metal, the welded work piece begins to glow and remains very hot for

Arc welding produces a variety of safety hazards. It is therefore particularly important for the welder to observe the following rules to avoid putting himself and others in danger and to prevent damage to persons and the equipment.

■ Only have work to the mains voltage end, e.g. to cables, plugs, outlets, etc. performed by a electrically skilled person in accordance with national and local regulations.

In the event of an accident, immediately disconnect the welding equipment from the mains voltage.

If electrical contact voltage occurs, immediately switch the equipment off and have it inspected by an electrically skilled person.

■ Always ensure good electrical contacts on the welding current end.

■ Always wear insulating gloves on both hands whilst welding. These will protect from electric shock (no-load voltage of the welding current), from hazardous rays (heat and UV rays) and glowing metal and weld splashes.

■ Wear solid, insulating shoes. The shoes should also insulate when exposed to moisture. Low shoes are not suitable, as glowing metal drops falling could cause burns.

■ Wear suitable protective clothing, no synthetic garments.
■ Do not look into the arc with

unprotected eyes, only use a welding shield with approved protective glass per DIN. In addition to light- and heat rays which could result in blinding or burns, the arc also emits UV rays. Without adequate protection, this invisible ultraviolet radiation causes very painful conjunctivitis which is only noticed a few hours later. UV rays further cause burns similar to a sunburn in unprotected areas of the body.

Persons near the arc or assistants must also be informed of the risks and outfitted with the necessary protection. If necessary, set up protective panels.
■ Ensure an adequate supply of fresh air whilst welding, particularly in small spaces, as it produces smoke and harmful gasses.
Do not weld containers in which gasses, fuels, mineral oils, etc. were stored - even if emptied a long time ago - as residue poses an explosion hazard.
■ Special regulations apply in rooms posing fire- and explosion hazards.
■ Welded joints exposed to great strain and needing to meet certain safety require-

ments must be made by spe- cially trained and certified welders. Examples are pres- sure vessels, running rails, tow couplings, 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 equipment!

Never connect the earth terminal to earthed parts far away from the work piece, e.g. a water pipe in another corner of the room. This could otherwise damage the protective bonding system of the room you are welding.

Danger of electric shock:

Electric shock from a welding electrode can be

fatal. Do not weld in rain or snow. Wear dry insulating gloves. Do not touch the electrode with bare hands. Do not wear wet or damaged gloves. Protect yourself from electric shock by insulating from the work piece. Do not open the equipment housing.

Danger due to welding smoke:

Inhaling welding smoke can jeopardize your health. Keep your head out of the smoke. Use facilities in open areas. Use ventilation to remove smoke.

Danger due to welding sparks:

• Do not use the welding equipment in the rain.
• Do not use the welding equipment in a moist environment.
  ■ Only place the welding equipment in a level location.
  The output is rated at an ambient temperature of 20 °C. The welding time may be reduced in higher temperatures.
  Welding sparks can cause an ex- plosion or fire. Keep flammables away from the welding area.
  Do not weld next to flammables. Welding sparks can cause a fire.
  Keep a fire extinguisher nearby and an observer ready to use it. Do not weld on top of drums or any closed containers.

Danger due to arc rays:

Arc rays can damage the eyes

and injure the skin. Wear a hat and safety goggles. Wear hearing protection and a closed, high shirt collar. Wear welding helmets and proper filter sizes. Wear full personal protection.

Danger due to electromagneticfields:

Welding current produces electro- magnetic fields. Do not use along with medical implants. Never wrap the welding cables around the body. Consolidate welding cables.

Also refer to the safety instructions of your welding equipment.

■ Always use the welding shield when welding. Failure to use the shield may result in serious injuries to the retina.
■ Always wear protective clothing when welding.
- Never use the welding shield without protective glass, as the optics can otherwise be damaged.
- Replace the protective glass early to ensure good visibility and fatigue-proof working.

● Safety notices specific to the welding shield

■ Using a hot light source (e.g. lighter) always check the welding shield is working properly before starting to weld.
■ Welding splashes can damage the glass shield. Replace damaged or scratched glass shields immediately.
■ Promptly replace damaged or heavily soiled / splashed components.
■ The equipment may only be operated by persons who have turned 16.
■ Familiarise yourself with the safety instructions for welding.

- Tight and moist spaces

• When working in tight, moist or hot spaces, use insulating pads and intermediate layers in addition to gauntlet gloves made from leather or other insulating materials to insulate the body from earth.
  When using welding equipment in electrically dangerous conditions, e.g. in tight spaces from conductive walls (kettles, pipes, etc.), in wet spaces (soaking of work clothes), the output voltages of the welding equipment may not be higher than 48 Volts (rms value) in

open loop. Based on the output voltage this welding equipment may be used in these conditions.

- Protective clothing

Whilst working the welder must be protected against rays and burns all over the body with the appropriate clothing and face protection. Remember the following steps:

• Put on protective clothing before welding.
• Put on gloves.
• Open windows or vent to ensure air supply.
  ■ Wear safety goggles and a mask.

■ Wear gauntlet gloves made from suitable material (leather) on both hands. These must be in good condition.

■ Wear suitable aprons to protect the clothing from sparks and burns. When required based on the working method, e.g. welding overhead, wear a protective suit and, if necessary, a head guard.

● Protecting against rays and burns

■ Mark the work area with a

sign „Danger! Do not look into flames!” to indicate the risk to the eyes. If possible, shield the work areas to protect persons nearby. Keep unauthorised persons away from the welding area.

■ Walls in the direct vicinity of fixed work areas should be neither light coloured nor glossy. Protect windows against rays passing through or reflecting at a minimum to head height, e.g. with suitable paint.
