• welding

2. The operator must ensure that:

• no unauthorised person is stationed within the working area of the equipment when it is started

up.

• no-one is unprotected when the arc is struck

3. The workplace must:

• be suitable for the purpose

• be free from draughts

4. Personal safety equipment

• Always wear recommended personal safely equipment, such as safety glasses, flame-proof

clothing, safety gloves.

• Do not wear loose-fitting items, such as scarves, bracelets, rings, etc., which could become

trapped or cause burns.

5. General precautions

• Make sure the return cable is connected securely.

• Work on high voltage equipment may only be curried out by a qualified electrician.

• Appropriate fire extinguishing equipment must be clearly marked and close at hand.

• Lubrication and maintenance must not be carried out on the equipment during operation.

WARNING

ARC WELDING AND CUTTING CAN BE INJURIOUS TO YOURSELF AND OTHERS. TAKE

PRECAUTIONS WHEN WELDING. ASK FOR YOUR EMPLOYER’S SAFETY PRACTICES WHICH

SHOULD BE BASED ON MANUFACTURER’S HAZARD DATA.

the general area.

ARC RAYS – Can injure eyes and burn skin.

• Protect your eyes and body. Use the correct welding screen and filter lens and wear protective clothing.

• Protect bystanders with suitable screens or curtains.

FIRE HAZARD

• Sparks (spatter) can cause fire. Make sure therefore that there are no inflammable materials nearby.

NOISE – Excessive noise can damage hearing

• Protect your ears. Use earmuffs or other hearing protection.

• Warn bystanders of the risk

MALFUNCTION – Call for expert assistance in the event of malfunction,

READ AND UNDERSTAND THE INSTRUCTION MANUAL BEFORE INSTALLING OR OPERATING.

PROTECT YOURSELF AND OTHERS!

WARNING!

Read and understand the instruction manual

before installing or operating.

WARNING!

Do not use the power source for thawing frozen pipes.

Note! This product is solely intended for arc welding.

Do not dispose of electrical equipment together with normal waste!

In observance of European Directive 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

Duty cycle

The duty cycle refers to the time as a percentage of a ten-minute period that you can weld at a

certain load without overloading.

Enclosure class

The IP code indicates enclosure class, i.e. the degree of protection against penetration by solid

objects and water. Equipment marked IP23 is designed for indoor and outdoor use.

Application class

The symbol indicates that the power source is designed for use in areas with

increased electrical hazard.

5 INSTALLATION

The installation must be executed by a professional.

WARNING!

This product is intended for industrial use. In a domestic environment this product may

cause radio interference. It is the user's responsibility to take adequate precautions.

Note!

Connect the power source to the electricity mains with a network impedance Zmax or

lower. If the network impedance is higher, there is a risk of flicker in the illuminators.

5.1 Placing

Place the machine so that there is nothing to prevent the cooling air from passing

through it (air being drawn into the machine through a grill on the back).

5.2 Lifting instructions

5.3 Mains power supply

• Check that the welding power source is connected for the available mains power

supply before connecting it to the mains.

• The mains cable is connected to the connection block XT1 (using terminals L1,

L2 and L3) and PE-terminal.

• Make sure that the connection blocks XT1 and XT2 are correctly wired for the

mains voltage used. (When delivered welding power source is wired for the

mains voltage 3x400-415V, 50Hz).

• Connect the mains cable to the mains power supply according to the relevant

regulations and install appropriate fuses in the main fuse box.

6 OPERATION

General safety regulations for the handling of the equipment can be found on

page 36. Read through before you start using the equipment!

6.1 Start-up

• Start the welding power source by setting the mains switch to position “I”. The

white lamp will light up and the fan will be started.

• Set the welding current, using the crank on the front. The selected welding

current is shown by the dial. Follow the instructions on the electrode package for

the recommended welding current.

• Connect welding and return cables to the terminals marked + and - on the front

of the power source. Polarity reversal is carried out by changing over the welding

and return cable connections. Connect return cable to the work piece.

• The power source is now ready for welding.

6.2 Overload protection

The thermostat prevents overheating of the welding power source. The yellow LED

lights up in case of overheating. Resetting takes place automatically as soon as the

power source has cooled down.

7 MAINTENANCE

Regular maintenance is important for safe, reliable operation.

Note!

All guarantee undertakings from the supplier cease to apply if the customer himself

attempts any work in the product during the guarantee period in order to rectify any

faults.

7.1 Inspection and cleaning

Normally it is sufficient to blow the welding power source clean regularly using dry

compressed air at reduced pressure. In dusty and dirty environment the welding power

source should be cleaned at shorter intervals.

Where necessary, lubricate the chain and sprocket using heat-resistant grease. When

required, the gliding surfaces of the leakage cores can also be smeared with a thin

coating of this grease.

8 FAULT TRACING

Try these recommended checks and inspections before sending for an authorised

service technician.

Type of fault Measure

No arc. • Make sure the mains switch is on.

• Check that the welding and return

cables are properly connected.

• Make sure the welding current setting is

correct.

The welding current is interrupted in the

course of welding.

• Check if the thermal cut-out has tripped

(the yellow indicating led on the front

panel is on).

• Check the mains power supply fuses.

The thermal cut-out trips frequently. • Check that the ratings of the welding

power source have not been exceeded

(overload of the power source).

Poor welding result. • Check that the welding and return

cables are properly connected.

• Make sure the welding current setting is

correct.

• Check that the correct electrodes are

being used.
