GOLD 180.2
GOLD XL 180.4
Note : The machines' duty cycle has been tested at room temperature (40°C) and has been determined
by simulation.
These are Class-A devices. They are designed to be used in an industrial or professional environment. In a
•
different environment, it can be difficult to ensure electromagnetic compatibility, due to conducted
disturbances as well as radiation.
ADVICE & THERMAL PROTECTION
This device is equipped with a multi-speed ventilator, regulated by the inside temperature. When the machine's
thermal protection is activated, it will not deliver any current. The over-heating icon will appear on the screen, and
will flash until the temperature of the machine has returned to normal.
- Do not block/cover the ventillation holes, ensure free flow of air.
- Whilst in thermal protection mode leave the machine plugged into the mains after welding to allow it to cool.
General observations
- Always respect the basic rules of welding
- Always work in an adequately ventillated area
- Do not work on a damp surface.

MAINTENANCE / ADVICE

Maintenance should only be carried out by a qualified person.
Switch the machine off, ensure it is unplugged, and that the ventilator inside has stopped before carrying out
maintenance work. (DANGER High Voltage and Currents).
We recommend removing the steel cover 2 or 3 times a year to remove any excess dust. Take this opportunity to
have the electrical connections checked by a qualified person with an insulated tool.
Regularly check the condition of the power supply cord. If damaged, it will need to be replaced by the
manufacturer, its' after sales service or a qualified person.
Ensure the ventilation holes of the device are not blocked to allow adequate air circulation.
SAFETY
Arc welding can be dangerous and can cause serious and even fatal injuries.
Protect yourself and others. Ensure the following safety precautions are taken:
Arc radiation
Rain, steam, damp
Electric shock
Falls
Burns
Fire risks
Fumes
Additional
Precautions
People wearing Pacemakers are advised to see their doctor before using this device.
Handle gas bottles with care - there is increased danger if the bottle or its valve are damaged.

The devices GOLD 180.2 et GOLD XL 180.4 comply with IEC 61000 -3-12.
Protect yourself with a helmet fitted with filters in compliance with EN169 or EN 379.
Use your welding unit in a clean/dry environment (pollution factor ≤ 3), on a flat surface,
and more than one meter from the welding work-piece. Do not use in rain or snow.
This device must only be used with an earthed power supply. Do not touch the parts
under tension. Check that the power supply is suitable for this unit.
Do not move the unit over people or objects.
Wear protective (fire-proof) clothing (cotton, overalls or jeans).
Wear protective gloves and a fire-proof apron.
Ensure other people keep a safe distance from the work area and do not look directly at
the welding arc.
Protect others by installing fire-proof protection walls.
Remove all flammable products from the work area. Do not work in presence of
flammable gases.
Do not inhale welding gases and fumes. Use the device in a well ventilated environment,
with artificial extraction if welding indoors.
Any welding operation undertaken in.....
- rooms where there is an increased risk of electric shocks,
- Poorly ventilated rooms,
- In the presence of flammable or explosive material,
......should always be approved by a "responsible expert", and made in presence of
people trained to intervene in case of emergency.
Technical protection as described in the Technical Specification CEI/IEC 62081 must be
implemented. Welding in raised positions is forbidden, except in case of safety platforms
use.
Do not use the welding unit to unfreeze pipes.
