INSTRUCTION MANUAL FOR WIRE WELDING MACHINE
IMPORTANT: BEFORE STARTING THE EQUIPMENT,
READ THE CONTENTS OF THIS MANUAL, WHICH
MUST BE STORED IN A PLACE FAMILIAR TO ALL US-
ERS FOR THE ENTIRE OPERATIVE LIFE-SPAN OF THE
MACHINE.
THIS EQUIPMENT MUST BE USED SOLELY FOR WELD-
ING OPERATIONS.

1 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

WELDING AND ARC CUTTING CAN BE
HARMFUL TO YOURSELF AND OTHERS. The
user must therefore be educated against the hazards,
summarized below, deriving from welding operations.
For more detailed information, order the manual code
3.300.758
ELECTRIC AND MAGNETIC FIELDS - May be danger-
ous.
· Electric current following through any con-
ductor causes localized Electric and Mag-
netic Fields (EMF). Welding/cutting current
creates EMF fi elds around cables and pow-
er sources.
· The magnetic fi elds created by high currents may affect
the operation of pacemakers. Wearers of vital electronic
equipment (pacemakers) shall consult their physician be-
fore beginning any arc welding, cutting, gouging or spot
welding operations.
· Exposure to EMF fi elds in welding/cutting may have
other health effects which are now not known.
· All operators should use the followingprocedures in or-
der to minimize exposure to EMF fi elds from the welding/
cutting circuit:
- Route the electrode and work cables together
- Secure them with tape when possible.
- Never coil the electrode/torch lead around your body.
- Do not place your body between the electrode/torch
lead and work cables. If the electrode/torch lead
cable is on your right side, the work cable should also
be on your right side.
- Connect the work cable to the workpiece as close as
possible to the area being welded/cut.
- Do not work next to welding/cutting power source.
EXPLOSIONS
· Do not weld in the vicinity of containers under
pressure, or in the presence of explosive dust,
gases or fumes. · All cylinders and pressure reg-
ulators used in welding operations should be handled
with care.
ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY.
This machine is manufactured in compliance with the in-
structions contained in the standard IEC 60974-10 (CL.
A), and must be used solely for professional purposes
in an industrial environment. There may be potential
diffi culties in ensuring electromagnetic compatibility in
non-industrial environments.

H.F FREQUENCY
• High frequency (H.F.) can interfere with radio
navigation, safety services, computers, and
communications equipment
• Have only qualifi ed persons familiar with
electronic equipment perform this installation.
• The user is responsible for having a qualifi ed electrician
promptly correct any interference problem resulting from
the installation.
• If notifi ed by the FCC about interference, stop using the
equipment at once.
• Have the installation regularly checked and maintained.
• Keep high-frequency source doors and panels tightly
shut, keep spark gaps at correct setting, and use ground-
ing and shielding to minimize the possibility of interference.
DISPOSAL OF ELECTRICAL AND ELECTRONIC
EQUIPMENT.
Do not dispose of electrical equipment together
with normal waste!In observance of European Di-
rective 2002/96/EC on Waste Electrical and Electronic
Equipment and its implementation in accordance with
national law, electrical equipment that has reached the
end of its life must be collected separately and returned
to an environmentally compatible recycling facility. As the
owner of the equipment, you should get information on
approved collection systems from our local representa-
tive. By applying this European Directive you will improve
the environment and human health!
IN CASE OF MALFUNCTIONS, REQUEST ASSISTANCE
FROM QUALIFIED PERSONNEL.
1.1 WARNING LABEL
The following numbered text corresponds to the label
numbered boxes.
B. Drive rolls can injure fi ngers.
C. Welding wire and drive parts are at welding voltage dur-
ing operation — keep hands and metal objects away.
1 Electric shock from welding electrode or wiring can kill.
1.1 Wear dry insulating gloves. Do not touch electrode
with bare hand. Do not wear wet or damaged gloves.
1.2 Protect yourself from electric shock by insulating
yourself from work and ground.
1.3 Disconnect input plug or power before working on
machine.
2 Breathing welding fumes can be hazardous to your
health.
2.1 Keep your head out of fumes.
2.2 Use forced ventilation or local exhaust to remove fumes.
2.3 Use ventilating fan to remove fumes.
3 Welding sparks can cause explosion or fi re.
3.1 Keep fl ammable materials away from welding.
3.2 Welding sparks can cause fi res. Have a fi re extinguish-
er nearby and have a watchperson ready to use it.
3.3 Do not weld on drums or any closed containers.
