Safety

This equipment must be used by qualified personnel. Be sure that all installation, operation, maintenance and repai r
procedures are performed only by qualified individuals.
equipment. Failure to follow the instructions in this manual could cause serious personal injury, loss of life, or damage to
this equipment.
Read and understand the following explanations of the warning symbols. Lincoln Electric is not
responsible for damages caused by improper installation, improper care or abnormal operation.
WARNING: This symbol indicates that instructions must be follo wed to avoid serious personal injury,
loss of life, or damage to this equipment. Protect yourself and others from possible serious injury or
death.
READ AND UNDERSTAND INSTRUCTIONS: Read and understand this manual before operating
this equipment. Arc welding can be hazardous. Failure to follow the instructions in this manual could
cause serious personal injury, loss of life, or damage to this equipment.
ELECTRIC SHOCK CAN KILL: Welding equipment generates high voltages. Do not touch the
electrode, work clamp, or connected work pieces when this equipment is on. Insulate yourself from
the electrode, work clamp, and connected work pieces.
FUMES AND GASES CAN BE DANGEROUS: Welding may produce fumes and gases hazardous to
health. Avoid breathing these fumes and gases. To avoid these dangers the operator must use
enough ventilation or exhaust to keep fumes and gases away from the breathing zone.
ARC RAYS CAN BURN: Use a shield with the proper filter and cover plates to protect your eyes from
sparks and the rays of the arc when welding or observing. Use suitable clothing made from durable
flame-resistant material to protect you skin and that of your helpers. Protect other nearby personnel
with suitable, non-flammable screening and warn them n ot to watch the arc nor expose themselves to
the arc.
WELDING SPARKS CAN CAUSE FIRE OR EXPLOSION: Remove fire hazards from the welding
area and have a fire extinguisher readily available. Welding sparks and hot materials from the welding
process can easily go through small cracks and openings to adjacent areas. Do not weld on any
tanks, drums, containers, or material until the proper steps have been taken to insure that no
flammable or toxic vapors will be present. Never operate this equipment when f lammable gases,
vapors or liquid combustibles are present.
ELECTRICALLY POWERED EQUIPMENT: Turn off input power using the disconnect switch at the
fuse box before working on this equipment. Ground this equipment in accordance with local electrical
regulations.
ELECTRICALLY POWERED EQUIPMENT: Regularly inspect the input, electrode, and work clamp
cables. If any insulation damage exists replace the cable immediately. Do not place the electrode
holder directly on the welding table or any other surface in contact with the work clamp to avoid the
risk of accidental arc ignition.
ELECTRIC AND MAGNETIC FIELDS MAY BE DANGEROUS: Electric current flowing through any
conductor creates electric and magnetic fields (EMF). EMF fields may interfere with som e
pacemakers, and welders having a pacemaker should consult their physician before operating this
equipment.
CYLINDER MAY EXPLODE IF DAMAGED: Use only compressed gas cylinders containing the
correct shielding gas for the process used and properly operating regulators designed for the gas and
pressure used. Always keep cylinders in an upright position securely chained to a fixed support. Do
not move or transport gas cylinders with the protection cap removed. Do not allow the electrode,
electrode holder, work clamp or any other electrically live part to touch a gas cylinder. Gas cylinders
must be located away from areas where they may be subjected to physical damage or the welding
process including sparks and heat sources.
WELDED MATERIALS CAN BURN: Welding generates a large amount of heat. Hot surfaces and
materials in work area can cause serious burns. Use gloves and pliers when touching or moving
materials in the work area.
CE COMPLIANCE: This equipment complies to the European Communities directives.
