Before transporting the device, completely drain the coolant and dismantle the following
components:
- wirefeeder
- wirespool
- shielding gas cylinder
It is essential to conduct a visual inspection of the device to check for damage after it has
been transported but before commissioning. Have any damage repaired by trained ser-
vice technicians before commissioning the device.
Safety Measures
in Normal Opera-
tion
Only operate the device when all safety devices are fully functional. If the safety devices
are not fully functional, there is a danger of:
- Injury or death to the operator or a third party
- Damage to the device and other material assets belonging to the operating company
- Inefficient operation of the device
Safety devices that are not fully functional must be repaired before the device is switched
on.
Never bypass or disable safety devices.
Before switching on the device, ensure that no one can be put in danger.
The device must be examined at least once a week for externally detectable damage
and functionality of the safety devices.
Always secure the shielding gas cylinder well and remove before transporting by crane.
Only the original coolant from the manufacturer is suitable for use in our devices due to
its properties (electrical conductivity, anti-freeze, material compatibility, flammability, etc.)
Only use appropriate original coolant from the manufacturer.
Do not mix original coolant from the manufacturer with other coolants.
Only connect system components from the manufacturer to the cooling unit circuit.
If there is damage due to use of other system components or other coolants, the manu-
facturer accepts no liability for this and all warranty claims are forfeited.
Cooling Liquid FCL 10/20 is not flammable. The ethanol-based coolant is flammable in
certain conditions. Only transport the coolant in closed original containers and keep
away from sources of ignition.
Properly dispose of used coolant according to national and international regulations. The
coolant safety data sheet can be obtained from your service center or via the manufac-
turer’s website.
When the system is cool, always check the coolant level before starting welding.
Maintenance and
repair
It is impossible to guarantee that bought-in parts are designed and manufactured to meet
the demands made of them, or that they satisfy safety requirements.
- Use only original spare and wearing parts (also applies to standard parts).
- Do not carry out any modifications, alterations, etc. to the device without the manu-
facturer's consent.
- Components that are not in perfect condition must be replaced immediately.
- When ordering, please give the exact designation and part number as shown in the
spare parts list, as well as the serial number of your device.
The housing screws provide the ground conductor connection for earthing the housing
parts.
