INTRODUCTION
All our Solmig models are suitable for welding with CO², Argon or CO²/Argon mix. Each uses a forced air
cooling system to slow transformer heating in oder to increase duty cycle and a non-live torch to prevent the
risk of accidentally striking an arc. All models are supplied with an industrial Argon/CO² regulator. Welders are
illustrated with gas bottles to give an indication of size only; gas is not included. A contract for the supply of gas
should be arranged with your local gas distributor.

SAFETY AND PROTECTION

ELECTRICITY
The correct operation of the machine can be ensured through its correct installation. Verify that the
electric current (V) of the equipment corresponds to that of the electricity supply.
ALWAYS connect the earth terminal (T).
Those persons carrying electronic body implant devices (PACEMAKERS) must not use equipment of
this type.
PERSONAL CLOTHING
The entire body of the welder is subject to possible contact with aggressive agents and so must be
totally protected. Use safety boots, gloves, oversleeves, gaiters and leather aprons.
BURN PROTECTION
Never touch parts of the wire or the material with your bare hands once soldered. Avoid skin contact
with airborne particles. Do not point the torch at any part of the body.
EYE PROTECTION
Welders and their assistants must use safety masks or goggles with filters which stop harmful radiation
entering the eyes. Use special and screens if possible to observe the welding area during the process.
FIRE PROTECCIÓN
The welding process produces flying incandescent metal parts which may cause fires. Do not use the
machine in areas where there may be inflammable gases. Clean the working area of all inflammable
material. Pay special attention to the protection of the gas cylinders in accordance with the necessary
requirements.
PROTECTION FOR GAS CYLINDERS
Cylinders containing gas (fire extinguishers etc.) store their contents at high pressure. If these suffer
any form of damage they may explode. Always treat these cylinders with care and weld as far away
from them as possible
WELDING IN TANKS WHICH MAY CONTAIN THE TRACES OF INFLAMMABLE MATERIALS INSIDE
INVOLVES A HIGH RISK OF EXPLOSION. WE RECOMMEND KEEPING AN EXTINGUISHER
READILY AVAILABLE FOR USE.
ELECTROMAGNETIC DISTURBANCES
Electromagnetic interferences produced by welding equipment may interfere in the operation of
equipment which is sensitive to this kind of interference (computers, robots etc).
Ensure that all the equipment in the welding area is resistant to electromagnetic radiation.
In order to reduce radiation as much as possible work with welding wires as short as possible, placed in
parallel on the floor if possible.
Work at a distance of 100 metres or more from equipment which is sensitive to disturbances.
Ensure that the machine equipment is correctly earthed.
If there are interference problems despite having taken the above described precautionary measures,
the operator must take extra measures such as moving the welding machine, and the use of filters or
protected cables to ensure that interference with other equipment does not occur.
RECYCLING
In compliance with European Directive 2002/96/EC on waste electric and electronic equipment this
equipment must be deposited in your local recycling centre at the end of its useful life.
