Care, maintenance and disposal
General Under normal operating conditions, the power source requires only a minimum of care and
maintenance. However, it is vital to observe some important points to ensure the welding
system remains in a usable condition for many years.
Safety
WARNING!
An electric shock can be fatal.
Before opening the device
► Turn the mains switch to the "O" position
► Unplug the device from the mains
► Ensure the device cannot be switched back on
► Using a suitable measuring instrument, check to make sure that electrically charged
components (e.g. capacitors) have been discharged
At every start-up - Check mains plug, mains cable, welding torch, interconnecting hosepack and ground-
ing (earthing) connection for damage
- Check whether the all-round clearance of 0.5 m (1 ft. 8 in.) is kept to ensure that the
cooling air can easily flow and escape.
NOTE!
Air inlets and outlets must never be covered, not even partially.
If necessary If a lot of dust has accumulated:
- Remove the fin element on the rear of the housing
- Detach the air filter located behind and clean
Every 2 months - If present: clean air filter
Every 6 months
CAUTION!
Danger of damage to electronic components.
► Do not bring the air nozzle too close to electronic components.
- Open the device
- Clean out the device interior using dry compressed air at reduced pressure
- If a lot of dust has accumulated, clean the cooling air ducts
Updating firm-
ware
IMPORTANT! To update the firmware you need a PC or laptop that is connected to the
power source via an Ethernet network.
