• Do not operate the Touchscreen Controller with the cover removed
• To prevent the possibility of electric shock, always plug the Touchscreen Controller into a
grounded power source

voltage could be present at open power connections
• Ensure power switch is in the OFF position before making or breaking any electrical or pneumatic
connections to the Touchscreen Controller and/or Welder
