The operator of the welder is responsible for the security of the people who work with the welder and for those in the vi-
cinity.
The security measures must satisfy the rules and regulations for engine driven welders.
The information given below is in addition to the local security norms.
Make sure that the area is safe before starting any
welding operation.
Do not touch any bare wires, leads or contacts as they
may be live and there is danger of electric shock which can
cause death or serious burns. The electrode and welding
cables, etc. are live when the unit is operating.
Do not touch any electrical parts or the electrode while
standing in water or with wet hands, feet or clothes.
Insulate yourself from the work surface while welding.
Use carpets or other insulating materials to avoid physical
contact with the work surface and the floor.
Always wear dry, insulating gloves, without holes, and
body protection.
Do not wind cables around the body.
Use ear protections if the noise level is high.
Keep flamable material away from the welding area.
Do not weld on containers which contain flamable ma-
terial.
Do not weld near refuellng areas.
Do not weld on easily flamable surfaces.
Do not use the welder to defrost (thaw) pipes.
Remove the electrode from the electrode holder, when
not welding.
Avoid inhaling fumes by providing a ventilation system
or, if not possible, use an approved air breather.
Do not work in closed areas where there is no fresh air
flow.
Protect face and eyes (protective mask with suitable
dark lens and side screens), ears and body (non-flamable
protective clothes).

away from the work area.
POSITIONING THE MACHINE
Place the machine on a level surface at a distance of at
least 1,5 m from buildings or other structures.
If the surface is not level be sure that the angle of the ma-
chine does not exceed the values shown in the drawings
below.
+ Assure that the hot air and/or exhaust gas from the
machine are vented and are not recirculated in the ma-
chine. Hot air and/or exhaust gas which is recirculated wll
cause overheating of the machine and poor combustion
in the engine.
+ Make sure that the machine does not move during
operation.
Protect the machine from rain and do not put
it in a location where there is danger of flood-
