It is required to be careful, since the metal being welded and the electrode are hot. The slag layer may be removed only once the
weld has cooled down, through its slight hammering with a welding hammer. Welding may be started again from the point where
the previous stage was finished, once you have made sure the slag layer has been removed.
Temperature protection
During work it is required to follow the selected working cycle. The welder may weld at the maximum current through a 60% of a
10-minute period, and the remaining 40% must be dedicated to cooling of the assemblies of the welder. In case the working cycle
is not observed the temperature protection system will be activated. A signalling lamp will go on and further welding will not be
possible until the assemblies of the welder have cooled down.
Frequent overloading of the welder may cause its wear or damage.
ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY AND RELATED PHENOMENA
The welder is a B class device (according to EN 60974-10), which means it complies with the electromagnetic compatibility
requirements for industrial and household environment, including dwellings where energy is provided through a public low-voltage
system. However during welding, the electric equipment which is close to the working area may interfere with the welder. Electric
arc generated during welding causes electromagnetic field which influences the electric systems and installations. Therefore the
operator of the welder must follow the safety regulations where such radiation may imply any danger to people or equipment (e.g.
close to hospitals, laboratories, medical equipment, radio and TV and computing equipment). It is not possible to determine and
quantity the kind and intensity of the influence of the electromagnetic field generated by the welder on another device. Therefore
it is difficult to formulate precise instructions how to limit the phenomenon. In places in which there is a potential risk, it is required
to take special measures and use, if possible, screens and protective filters. The welding cables should be as short as possible
and placed close to each other on the floor. The manufacturer shall not be held responsible for any damage caused by using the
welder in the aforementioned places or by incorrect operation of the device.
MAINTENANCE AND SPARE PARTS
ATTENTION! Before any adjustments, technical service or maintenance remove the plug of the device from the mains socket.
Once the work has been concluded, it is required to check the technical conditions of the device through external inspection and
evaluation of the body, the electric cable and the plug, operation of the switch, the conditions of the ventilating slots, the noise
emitted during work, the start-up and uniformity of operation. During the warranty period the used must not dismantle the device or
replace any assemblies or elements, since otherwise the warranty shall be void. Any irregularities observed during inspection are
a signal for a repair to be realised at a service point. Once work has finished, the body, the ventilation slots, the switches, the ad-
ditional handle and the protections must be cleaned, e.g. with air jet (whose pressure must not exceed 0.3 MPa), a brush or a dry
cloth, without any chemical substances or cleaning liquids. The tools and handles must be cleaned with a dry and clean cloth.
It is required to control the wear of the mass clamps and the electrodes, as well as the connection plugs of the welding cables.
In case of excessive wear, for example if it is not possible to grab the electrode, it is required to contact the manufacturer. It is
prohibited to use other cables than the original spares.

Description of the product:
The welding face protection a welding filter is a means of protection of eyes and face of Category
II, whose purpose is individual protection of the eyes and face from mechanical dangers and light. The shield does not protect
from drops and liquid splashes, coarse and fine dust particles, gas and short-circuit arc generated by short circuit. The shield is
made of polypropylene and is equipped with a handle which permits to hold it with a hand during work. The welding filter protects
the eyesight from the radiation generated during electric-arc welding. The filter and the external protective shield are made of
polycarbonate. Persons who suffer from allergy to the aforementioned materials may experience an allergic reaction.
Assembly of the welding mask:
First fix the handle to the welding mask. In order to do so, insert the fastening elements of the
handle into the slots of the mask, and then push the handle so that the pin of the handle locks in the opening of the mask (V). This
will lock the handle in the mask. Make sure the handle will not fall accidentally from the welding mask during work. Slightly bend
the upper and the lateral surface of the welding mask, and then connect both surfaces with pins and holes (VI).
Insert the welding filter into the opening of the welding mask so that the lower edge of the filter rests on the lower edge of the
opening. Both pressing elements should rest on the filter shield. Make sure the filter covers completely the opening of the welding
mask (VII). While replacing the welding filter, remove first the old filter, and then insert a new one. The dimensions of the welding
filter are 110 mm x 50 mm.
Shelf life:
There is no specific shelf life for the product. Make sure the elements of the shield are not damaged and if necessary
replace them in accordance with the user’s manual
.
