• Remove all interconnections before transporting the welding/cutting equipment, each being separate, lift and transport small ones using its handles, and the big ones from its handling rings or by using appropriate haulage equipment, such as forklifts.

Falling Parts May Cause Injuries
Improper positioning of the power supply sources or other equipment can cause serious injury to persons and physical damage to other objects.

• Place your machine on the floor and platforms with a maximum tilt of 10° so that it does not fall or tip over. Choose places that do not interfere with the flow of materials, where there is no risk of tripping over on cables and hoses; yet, large, easily ventilatable, dust-free areas. To prevent gas cylinders from tipping over, on machines with a gas platform suitable for the tanks, fix the tanks on to the platform; in stationary usage applications, fix them to the wall with a chain in a way that they would not tip over for sure.
• Allow operators to easily access settings and connections on the machine.

Excessive Use Of The Machine Causes Overheating

• Allow the machine to cool down according to operation cycle rates.
• Reduce the current or operation cycle rate before starting the welding/cutting again.
• Do not block the fronts of the air vents of the machines.
• Do not put filters that do not have manufacturer approvals into the machine’s ventilation ports.

Excessive Use Of The Machine Causes Overheating

• This device is in group 2, class A in EMC tests according to TS EN 55011 standard.

• This class A device is not intended for use in residential areas where electrical power is supplied from a low-voltage power supply. There may be potential difficulties in providing electromagnetic compatibility due to radio frequency interference transmitted and emitted in such places.
  This device is not compliant with IEC 61000 -3-12. In case if it is desired to be connected to the low voltage network used in the home, the installer to make the electrical connection or the person who will use the machine must be aware that the machine has been connected in such a manner; in this case, the responsibility belongs to the user.

• Make sure that the work area complies with electromagnetic compatibility (EMC). Electromagnetic interferences during welding/cutting operations may cause undesired effects on your electronic devices and network, and the effects of these interferences that may occur during these operations are under the responsibility of the user.

• If there is any interference, to ensure compliance; extra measures may be taken, such as the use of short cables, the use of shielded (armored) cables, transportation of the welding machine to another location, removal of cables from the affected device and / or area, use of filters or taking the work area under protection in terms of EMC.

• To avoid possible EMC damage, make sure to perform your welding/cutting operations as far away from your sensitive electronic devices as possible (100 m).

• Ensure that your welding and/or cutting machine has been installed and situated in its place according to the user manual.

Evaluation Of Electromagnetic Suitability Of The Work Area

According to article 5.2 of IEC 60974-9;
Before installing the welding/cutting equipment, the person in charge of the operation and / or the user must inspect possible electromagnetic interference in the environment. The aspects indicated below have to be taken into consideration;

• a) Other supply cables, control cables, signal, and telephone cables, above and below the welding / cutting machine and its equipment,
• b) Radio and television transmitters and receivers,
• c) Computer and other control hardware,
• d) Critical safety equipment, e.g. protection of industrial equipment,
• e) Medical apparatus for people in the vicinity, e.g. pacemakers and hearing aids,
• f) Equipment used for measuring or calibration,
• g) Immunity of other equipment in the environment. The user must ensure that the other equipment in use in the environment is compatible. This may require additional protection measures.
• h) Considering the time during which the welding/cutting operations or other activities take place during the day, the boundaries of the investigation area can be expanded according to the size of the building, the structure of the building and other activities that are being performed in the building.
  In addition to the evaluation of the field, evaluation of device installations may also be necessary for solving the interfering effect. In case if deemed necessary, on-site measurements can also be used to confirm the efficiency of mitigation measures. (Source: IEC 60974-9).

Electromagnetic Interferance Reduction Methods

• The appliance must be connected to the electricity supply in the recommended manner by a competent person. If interference occurs, additional measures may be applied, such as filtering the network. The supply of the fixed-mounted arc welding equipment must be made in a metal tube or with an equivalent shielded cable. The housing of the power supply must be connected and a good electrical contact between these two structures has to be provided.
• The recommended routine maintenance of the appliance must be carried out. All covers on the body of the machine must be closed and/or locked when the device is in use. Any changes, other than the standard settings without the written approval of the manufacturer, cannot be modified on the appliance. Otherwise, the user is responsible for any consequences that may occur.
• Welding/cutting cables should be kept as short as possible. They must move along the floor of the work area, in a side-by-side manner. Welding/cutting cables should not be wound in any way.
• A magnetic field is generated on the machine during welding / cutting. This may cause the machine to pull metal parts onto itself. To avoid this attraction, make sure that the metal materials are at a safe distance or fixed. The operator must be insulated from all these interconnected metal materials.
• In cases where the workpiece cannot be connected to the ground due to electrical safety, or because of its size and position (for example, in building marine vessel bodies or in steel construction manufacturing), a connection between the workpiece and the grounding may reduce emissions in some cases, it should be kept in mind that grounding of the workpiece may cause users to sustain injuries or other electrical equipment in the environment to break down. In cases where necessary, the workpiece and the grounding connection can be made as a direct connection, but in some countries where direct connection is not permissible, the connection can be established using appropriate capacity elements in accordance with local regulations and ordinances.
• Screening and shielding of other devices and cables in the work area can prevent aliasing effects. Screening of the entire welding/cutting area can be evaluated for some specific applications.

Electromagnetic Field (EMF)
The electrical current passing through any conductor generates zonal electric and magnetic fields (EMF).

All operators must follow the following procedures to minimize the risk of exposure to EMF;

• In the name of reducing the magnetic field, the welding/cutting cables must be assembled and secured as far as possible with the joining materials (tape, cable ties etc.).
• The operator’s body and head should be kept as far away from the welding / cutting machine and cables as possible

Maintenance

Daily Maintenance

• Check your torch, clamps, and cables. Pay attention to the connections and the durableness of the parts. Replace the damaged/defective parts with the new ones. Do not ever make additions to/repair the cables.
• Ensure adequate space for ventilation.
• The consumables on the TIG torch must be cleaned regularly. Should be replaced if necessary. It should be ensured that these materials are original products for long-term use.
• Before starting welding, check the gas flow rate from the tip of the torch with a flow meter. If the gas flow is high or low, bring it to the appropriate level for the welding process
• Check the coolant level, and top up if there is a decrease in the coolant level.
  If the coolant is contaminated, drain the entire coolant tank and clean the coolant tank. Fill the tank with new coolant.

Every 6 Months

• Do not remove the warning labels on the device. Replace the worn/torn labels with the new ones. Labels can be obtained from the authorized service.
