Do not touch live electrical parts or electrodes with bare skin, wet gloves or
wet clothing
Insulate yourself from earth and the workpiece
Ensure your working stance is safe
FUMES AND GASES - Can be dangerous to health
Keep your head out of the fumes
Use ventilation, extraction at the arc, or both, to take fumes and gases away
from your breathing zone and 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

4 INSTALLATION
The installation must be carried out by a professional.
See the service manual for Aristo® W8
2
.
4.1 Mains supply
NOTE!
Mains supply requirements
High power equipment may, due to the primary current drawn from the mains
supply, influence the power quality of the grid. Therefore connection restrictions
or requirements regarding the maximum permissible mains impedance or the
required minimum supply capacity at the interface point to the public grid may
apply for some types of equipment (see technical data). In this case it is the
responsibility of the installer or user of the equipment to ensure, by consultation
with the distribution network operator if necessary, that the equipment may be
connected.
4.2 Assembly instruction
Connection of Aristo® W82 to ESAB's Mig 5000i power source
1. Remove the welding power source's rear
handle by removing the screws.
2. Put the W8
2
onto the welding power
source.
3. Screw the W8
2
and the handle into place
in the same screw holes.

4.3 System description
It is possible to configure the U8
2
unit for stand-alone usage (stand-alone unit) or
presentation usage (presentation unit). The presence of a W8
2
unit within the welding system
determines which unit that is to be used.
The stand-alone unit is used when there is
no W8
2
unit in the system.
The presentation unit is used when there
is a W8
2
unit in the system.
It is necessary to convert the U8
2
stand-alone unit to a U8
2
presentation unit before it is used
together with a W8
2
unit.
During unit start-up it is possible to see if the unit is a presentation unit or not.
4.4 How to set-up the U82 for use with W82
NOTE!
It is necessary to change the U8
2
stand-alone unit to a presentation unit before it
is used together with a W8
2
unit.
4.4.1 Save your stored data
1. Connect the U8
2
stand-alone unit to a power source or a wire feed unit.
2. Turn on the power source's main switch.
3. Export weld data sets from the U8
2
memory to a USB memory (see chapter
Export/Import in the U8
2
instruction manual).
4. Turn off the power source's main switch.
5. Remove the USB memory.

is started It is finished when two “beeps”
are heard.
7. Turn off the power source's main switch.
8. Open the cover and remove the enclosed
USB memory.
9. Close the cover. The unit is now ready to be used together with a W8
2
unit.
