MAINTENANCE
Frequency of maintenance operations depends on the operating conditions, how
intensively the welder is used, and how clean or dirty the welding site is (aggressive
atmospheres, etc).
Always inspect the cables, both earth return and torch cable, before use to ensure
they are in perfect condition.
Ensure the earth clamp is clean and secured correctly to the cable.
Check the gas hose and Pressure Regulator for security and serviceability, and
ensure there is sufficient gas to complete the job in hand.
As a general rule the power supply should be inspected internally at least annually.
Consult your CLARKE dealer
WARNING!
ELECTRICITY CAN KILL
NEVER TOUCH LIVE ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS
DISCONNECT THE POWER SUPPLY BEFORE ALL INSPECTIONS AND
MAINTENANCE OPERATIONS
BEWARE HOT SURFACES.....ALWAYS LET THE POWER SUPPLY COOL DOWN
BEFORE ACCESSING INTERNAL COMPONENTS.
WELDING SHIELD
Always maintain the welding mask in good condition. If the clear glass protection
lens becomes badly pitted, sufficient to interfere with vision, or cracked, have it
replaced immediately.
Replacement clear and dark lenses are available from your Clarke dealer - see
Parts Lists for details. NEVER use any dark filter lens other than that provided by
CLARKE International, or one with the same certified ‘Optical class’ (degree of
protection).
The shield should always be cleaned with a clean soft cloth after use, ensuring the
lenses are clean. Remove any dust that may have accumulated and store it in a
safe place where it cannot be damaged.
NEVER use a shield that is not in perfect condition.
