Notes:
• Periodically inspect supply cable for any cracks or exposed wires. If it is not in good
conditions, have it repaired by a Service Centre.
• Do not pull violently the input power cable to disconnect it from supply.
Do not lay material or tools on the power supply cable. The cable may be damaged and result in
electrical shock.
• Keep the supply cable away from heat sources, oils, solvents or sharp edges.
• If you use an extension cord, keep it as straight as possible. For lengths up to 100 ft. use 12
AWG. For lengths up to 100 ft. use 10 AWG.
For your safety, before connecting the power source to the line, closely follow these instructions:
• An adequate two-pole switch must be inserted before the main outlet; this switch must be
equipped with time-delay fuses;
• The connection with ground must be made with a two-pole plug compatible with the above
mentioned socket;
• When working in a confined space, the power source must be kept outside the welding area
and the ground cable should be fixed to the work piece. Never work in a damp or wet area,
in these conditions.
• Do not use damaged input or welding cables
• The welding torch should never be pointed at the operator’s or at other persons’ body;
• The power source must never be operated without its panels; this could cause serious injury to
the operator and could damage the equipment.
California Proposition 65 Warnings
Welding or cutting equipment produces fumes or gases which contain chemicals known to the
State of California to cause birth defects and, in some cases, cancer. (California Health & Safety
Code Section 25249.5 et seq.)
