5.0 INSTALLATION OF THE
WELDING WIRE
The power source is supplied with a welding wire
spool. In order to install this wire into the feeding
system, follow the instructions hereafter described and
refer to Figure 3.

5. In order to assemble the handshield protection shield
in the special opening screws. Place the handle fix-
ing it in mask, push it and rotate it by 90° until insi-
de the protection mask.
CAUTION: Never look at an electric arc without
eye protection, the arc rays can injure the eyes per-
manently. Use always the protection shield supplied
with the power source or any other protection mask
or welding helmet.
4.0 WELDING SHIELD
MAINTENANCE
USE:
The shield are for personal use and must only be
used to protect the welder from the optical radiation
produced by the eletric welding arc.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE:
Clean the shi-
eld after each time it is used. The shield should only be
cleaned using a soft cloth or compressed air: check
whether any parts of the shield are worn and replace
these if damaged. The materials used to make the shi-
eld are usually compatible but can cause allergic reac-
tions in particularly sensitive people. Disinfecting
should be performed using solutions of benzil-lauryl-
dimethyl-ammonium chloride or UV germicide lamps.
LEVELS OF PROTECTION
: Only use the shield in
accordance with the operating instructions and make
sure that the protection filter is suited to the type of
welding. Remember that the filters are NOT shatter-
proof and therefore they should be protected by colour-
less plates of same size. To obtain a better level of the
protection against welding spatter , wear gloves and
protective clothing.
SPARE PARTS:
Replace any parts that seem damaged
or deformed immediately. Only original spare parts
must be used. Do not use filter glass as replacements if
these are not certified or do not have a declared optical
class. Ensure that any replacement filter is the correct
safety shade. If in doubt consult your local supplier.
RESTRICTIONS OF USE:
The shields only provide
adequate protection for the forehead, the sides of the
face and the neck if used for the stated purpose.
1. Loosen the nut (I) of the spool holder (brake drum)
and remove the spring (R) and the external ring.
2. Remove the plastic protection from the spool (K)
and place it on the spool holder again. Mount the
external ring (J), the spring (R) and the plastic lock
nut (I) again. These parts form the braking system of
the wire spool speed. NOTE: Do not tighten the nut
too much, excessive pressure strains the wire fee-
ding motor, while too little pressure does not allow
the immediate stop of the wire spool at the end of
the welding.
3. Loosen and lower the plastic knob (L), release the
upper roll of the feeder (N) and extract the wire from
the torch liner.
4. When the wire is disconnected, keep it with pliers so
that it cannot exit from the spool, and if necessary
straighten it before inserting it in the wire input
guide (O). Insert the wire on the lower roll (M) and
in the torch liner.
