9. ROUTINE MAINTENANCE & INSPECTION
The only routine maintenance required for the machines is a thorough cleaning
and inspection, with the frequency depending on the usage and the operating
environment.
WARNING
Disconnect the appliance from the mains supply voltage before disassembling.
Special maintenance is not necessary for the control unit parts in the Welder.
If these parts are damaged for any reason, replacement is recommended.
CAUTION
