Do not touch any live part of the machine (inside or outside) when it is plugged in (Torches, earth cable, cables, electrodes)
because they are connected to the welding circuit.
Before opening the device, it is imperative to 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 earth clamp at the same time.
Damaged cables and torches must be changed by a qualified and skilled professional. Make sure that the cable cross section is
adequate with the usage (extensions and welding cables). Always wear dry clothes in good condition, in order to be insulated
from the electrical circuit. Wear insulating shoes, regardless of the environment in which you work in.
CEM CLASSIFIED MATERIAL
These Class A devices are not intended to be used on a residential site where the electric current is
supplied by the public network, with a low voltage power supply. There may be potential difficulties in
ensuring electromagnetic compatibility on these sites, because of the interferences, as well as radio
frequencies.
This equipment does not comply with IEC 61000-3-12 and is intended to be connected to private low-
voltage systems interfacing with the public supply only at the medium- or high-voltage level. On a public
low-voltage power grid, it is the responsibility of the installer or user of the device to ensure, by checking
with the operator of the distribution network, which device can be connected.
This equipment complies with the IEC 61000-3-11 standard.
ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCES
The electric currents flowing through a conductor cause electrical and magnetic fields (EMF). The
welding current generates an EMF field around the welding circuit and the welding equipment.
The EMF fields may disrupt some medical implants, such as pacemakers. Protection measures should be taken for people wearing
medical implants. For example, access restrictions for passers-by or an individual risk evaluation for the welders.
All welders should take the following precautions in order to minimise exposure to the electromagnetic fields (EMF) generated
by the welding circuit::
• position the welding cables together – if possible, attach them;
• keep your head and torso as far as possible from the welding circuit;
• never enroll the cables around your body;
• never position your body between the welding cables. Hold both welding cables on the same side of your body;
• connect the earth clamp as close as possible to the area being welded;
• do not work too close to, do not lean and do not sit on the welding machine
• do not weld when you're carrying the welding machine or its wire feeder.
People wearing pacemakers are advised to consult their doctor before using this device.
Exposure to electromagnetic fields while welding may have other health effects which are not yet
known.
RECOMMENDATIONS TO ASSESS THE WELDING AREA AND WELDING INSTALLATION
Overview
The user is responsible for installing and using the arc welding equipment in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
If electromagnetic disturbances are detected, it is the responsibility of the user of the arc welding equipment to resolve the
situation with the manufacturer's technical assistance. In some cases, this remedial 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 power source
and around the entire piece by fitting input filters. In all cases, electromagnetic interferences must be reduced until they are no
longer bothersome.
