equipment. Incorrect operation of the equipment may lead to hazardous situations, which
could result in injury to the operator and damage to the equipment.
1. Anyone who uses the equipment must be familiar with:
its operation
the location of emergency stops
its function
the relevant safety precautions
welding and cutting or other applicable operation of the equipment
2. The operator must ensure that:
no unauthorized person is within the working area of the equipment when it is started
up

5. General precautions:
Make sure the return cable is connected securely
Work on high voltage equipment may only be carried 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 may cause injury to yourself and others. Take
precautions when welding and cutting.
ELECTRIC SHOCK - Can kill
Install and ground the unit in accordance with instruction manual
Do not touch live electrical parts or electrodes with bare skin, wet gloves, or
wet clothing
Insulate yourself from work and ground.
Ensure your working position is safe
ELECTRIC AND MAGNETIC FIELDS - Pose health risks
Welders with pacemakers fitted should consult their doctor before welding.
EMF may interfere with some pacemakers.
Exposure to EMF may have other health effects which are unknown.
Welders should use the following procedures to minimize exposure to EMF:
Route the electrode and work cables together on the same side of your
body. Secure them with tape when possible. Do not place your body
between the torch and work cables. Never coil the torch or work cable
around your body. Keep the welding power source and cables as far
away from your body as possible.
Connect the work cable to the workpiece as close as possible to the area
being welded.
FUMES AND GASES - Can be dangerous to your 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

NOISE - Excessive noise can damage hearing
Protect your ears. Use ear defenders or other hearing protection.
MOVING PARTS - Can cause injuries
Keep all doors, panels and covers closed and securely in place. Have only
qualified people remove covers for maintenance and troubleshooting as
necessary. Reinstall panels or covers and close doors when service is
finished and before starting engine.
Stop engine before installing or connecting unit.
Keep hands, hair, loose clothing and tools away from moving parts.
FIRE HAZARD
Sparks (spatter) can cause a fire. Therefore, make sure that there are no
inflammable materials nearby
Do not use on closed containers.
MALFUNCTION - Call for expert assistance in the event of malfunction.
PROTECT YOURSELF AND OTHERS!
CAUTION!
This product is solely intended for arc welding.
WARNING!
Do not use the power source for thawing frozen pipes.
CAUTION!
Class A equipment is not intended for use in residential
locations where the electrical power is provided by the
public low-voltage supply system. There may be potential
difficulties in ensuring electromagnetic compatibility of
class A equipment in such locations, due to conducted as
well as radiated disturbances.
NOTE!
Dispose of electronic equipment at a recycling
facility!
To conform with the European Directive 2012/19/EC on
Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment and its
implementation in accordance with national law, electrical
and/or electronic equipment that has reached the end of
its life must be disposed of at a recycling facility.
As the person responsible for the equipment, it is your
responsibility to obtain information on approved collection
stations.
For further information contact the nearest ESAB dealer.

Connection of Aristo® W82 to ESAB's Mig 3001i, Mig 4001i and Mig 6502c power
sources
Connect the W8
2
with a 2m cable and place it on the floor or on a stand next to the power
source.
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 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 startup it is possible to see whether or not the unit is a presentation unit.
4.4 How to setup 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).
