WARNING
Before starting any cleaning, or maintenance procedures on the welding machine, make sure that it is switched
OFF and disconnected from the mains supply.
There are no user serviceable parts inside the welder. Refer to a qualified service personnel if any internal
maintenance is required. After use, wipe the welder down with a clean soft dry cloth.
Regular inspection of the supply cord is required and if damaged is suspected, it must be immediately replaced
by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard
STORAGE/ TRANSPORT
Store the welder and accessories out of children’s reach in a dry place. If possible store the welder in the
original packaging. The appliance must unconditionally be secured against falling or rolling over during
transport.
DISPOSING OF THE PACKAGING
Recycling packaging reduces the need for landfill and raw materials. Reuse of the recycled material
decreases pollution in the environment. Please recycle packaging where facilities exist. Check with your local
council authority for recycling advice.
DISPOSING OF THE WELDER
Welders that are no longer usable should not be disposed of with household waste but in an environmentally
friendly way. Please recycle where facilities exist. Check with your local council authority for recycling advice.
MAINTENANCE

GAS BOTTLE
ATTENTION! - CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS
At initial set up and at regular intervals we recommend to check for gas leakage
Recommended procedure is as follows:
1. Connect the regulator and gas hose assembly and tighten all connectors and clamps.
2. Slowly open the cylinder valve.
3. Set the flow rate on the regulator to approximately 10-15 l/min.
4. Close the cylinder valve and pay attention to the needle indicator of the contents pressure gauge on
the regulator, if the needle drops away towards zero there is a gas leak. Sometimes a gas leak can be
slow and to identify it will require leaving the gas pressure in the regulator and line for an extended time
period. In this situation it is recommended to open the cylinder valve, set the flow rate to 8-10 l/min,
close the cylinder valve and check after a minimum of 15 minutes. Ensuring adequate ventilation for
small spaces.
5. If there is a gas loss then check all connectors and clamps for leakage by brushing or spraying with
soapy water, bubbles will appear at the leakage point.
6. Tighten clamps or fittings to eliminate gas leakage.
IMPORTANT! -
We strongly recommend that you check for gas leakage prior to operation of your
machine. We recommend that you close the cylinder valve when the machine is not in use.
BOSSWELD, authorised representatives or agents of BOSSWELD will not be liable or responsible for
the loss of any gas.
