INDIVIDUAL PROTECTIONS AND OTHERS
Arc welding can be dangerous and can cause serious and even fatal injuries.
Welding exposes the user to dangerous heat, arc rays, electromagnetic fields,
noise, gas fumes, and electrical shocks. People wearing pacemakers are advised
to consult with their doctor before using this device.
To protect oneself as well as the other, ensure the following safety
precautions are taken:
In order to protect you from burns and radiations, wear clothing without
cuffs. These clothes must be insulated, dry, fireproof and in good condition,
and cover the whole body.
Wear protective gloves which guarantee electrical and thermal insulation.
Use sufficient welding protective gear for the whole body: hood, gloves,
jacket, trousers… (varies depending on the application/ operation). Protect
the eyes during cleaning operations. Do not operate whilst wearing contact
lenses.
It may be necessary to install fireproof welding curtains to protect the area
against arc rays, weld spatters and sparks.
Inform the people around the working area to never look at the arc nor the
molten metal, and to wear protective clothes.
Ensure ear protection is worn by the operator if the work exceeds the
authorised noise limit (the same applies to any person in the welding area).
Stay away from moving parts (e.g. engine, fan…) with hands, hair, clothes etc…
Never remove the safety covers from the cooling unit when the machine is
plugged in – The manufacturer is not responsible for any accident or injury
that happens as a result of not following these safety precautions.
The pieces that have just been welded are hot and may cause burns when
manipulated. During maintenance work on the torch or the electrode holder, you
should make sure it’s cold enough and wait at least 10 minutes before any
intervention. The cooling unit must be on when using a water cooled torch in
order to ensure that the liquid does not cause any burns. ALWAYS ensure the
working area is left as safe and secure as possible to prevent damage or
accidents.
WELDING FUMES AND GAS
The fumes, gases and dust produced during welding are hazardous. It is
mandatory to ensure adequate ventilation and/or extraction to keep fumes and
gases away from the work area. An air fed helmet is recommended in cases of
insufficient air supply in the workplace.
Check that the air intake is in compliance with safety standards.
Care must be taken when welding in small areas, and the operator will need
supervision from a safe distance. Welding certain pieces of metal containing
lead, cadmium, zinc, mercury or beryllium can be extremely toxic. The user
will also need to degrease the workpiece before welding. Gas cylinders must be
stored in an open or ventilated area. The cylinders must be in a vertical
position secured to a support or trolley. Do not weld in areas where grease or
paint are stored.
FIRE AND EXPLOSIONS RISKS
Protect the entire welding area. Compressed gas containers and other
inflammable material must be moved to a minimum safe distance of 11 meters.
A fire extinguisher must be readily available.
Be careful of spatter and sparks, even through cracks. It can be the source of
a fire or an explosion.
Keep people, flammable objects and containers under pressure at a safe
distance.
Welding of sealed containers or closed pipes should not be undertaken, and if
opened, the operator must remove any inflammable or explosive materials (oil,
petrol, gas…).
Grinding operations should not be directed towards the device itself, the
power supply or any flammable materials.
GAS BOTTLE
Gas leaking from the cylinder can lead to suffocation if present in high
concentrations around the work area.
Transport must be done safely: Cylinders closed and product off. Always keep
cylinders in an upright position securely chained to a fixed support or
trolley.
Close the bottle after any welding operation. Be wary of temperature changes
or exposure to sunlight.
Cylinders should be located away from areas where they may be struck or
subjected to physical damage.
Always keep gas bottles at a safe distance from arc welding or cutting
operations, and any source of heat, sparks or flames.
Be careful when opening the valve on the gas bottle, it is necessary to remove
the tip of the valve and make sure the gas meets your welding requirements.
ELECTRIC SAFETY
The machine must be connected to an earthed electrical supply. Use the
recommended fuse size.
An electrical discharge can directly or indirectly cause serious or deadly
accidents.
Do not touch any live part of the machine (inside or outside) when it is
plugged in (Torches, earth cable, cables) because they are connected to the
welding circuit.
Before opening the device, it is imperative to disconnect it from the mains
and wait 2 minutes, so that all the capacitors are discharged.
Do not touch the torch or electrode holder and earth clamp at the same time.
Damaged cables and torches must be changed by a qualified and skilled
professional. Make sure that the cable cross section is adequate with the
usage (extensions and welding cables). Always wear dry clothes in good
condition, in order to be insulated from the electrical circuit. Wear
insulating shoes, regardless of the environment in which you work in.
CEM CLASSIFIED MATERIAL
These Class A devices are not intended to be used on a residential site where
the electric current is supplied by the public network, with a low voltage
power supply. There may be potential difficulties in ensuring electromagnetic
compatibility on these sites, because of the interferences, as well as radio
frequencies.
SMARTMIG 142-152-162-182 :
This equipment does not comply with IEC 61000-3-12 and is intended to be
connected to private low-voltage systems interfacing with the public supply
only at the medium- or high-voltage level. On a public low-voltage power grid,
it is the responsibility of the installer or user of the device to ensure, by
checking with the operator of the distribution network, which device can be
connected.
SMARTMIG 182 : This equipment complies with IEC 61000-3-12, provided that
the power of the short-circuit Ssc is equal to or greater than 1,4 MVA at the
interface between the machine and the mains power network. It is the
responsibility of the installer or user of the equipment to ensure if
necessary by consulting the operator of the mains electricity, that the
equipment is only connected to a power supply where the power of short-circuit
ssc is equal to or greater than 1,4 MVA.
This equipment complies with the IEC 61000-3-11 standard.
ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCES
The electric currents flowing through a conductor cause electrical and
magnetic fields (EMF). The welding current generates an EMF field around the
welding circuit and the welding equipment.
The EMF fields may disrupt some medical implants, such as pacemakers.
Protection measures should be taken for people wearing medical implants.
For example, access restrictions for passers-by or an individual risk
evaluation for the welders.
All welders should take the following precautions in order to minimise
exposure to the electromagnetic fields (EMF) generated by the welding
circuit::
- position the welding cables together – if possible, attach them;
- keep your head and torso as far as possible from the welding circuit;
- never enroll the cables around your body;
- never position your body between the welding cables. Hold both welding cables on the same side of your body;
- connect the earth clamp as close as possible to the area being welded;
- do not work too close to, do not lean and do not sit on the welding machine
- do not weld when you’re carrying the welding machine or its wire feeder.
People wearing pacemakers are advised to consult their doctor before using
this device.
Exposure to electromagnetic fields while welding may have other health effects
which are not yet known.
RECOMMENDATIONS TO ASSESS THE WELDING AREA AND WELDING INSTALLATION
Overview
The user is responsible for installing and using the arc welding equipment in
accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. If electromagnetic
disturbances are detected, it is the responsibility of the user of the arc
welding equipment to resolve the situation with the manufacturer’s technical
assistance. In some cases, this remedial action may be as simple as earthing
the welding circuit. In other cases, it may be necessary to construct an
electromagnetic shield around the welding power source and around the entire
piece by fitting input filters. In all cases, electromagnetic interferences
must be reduced until they are no longer bothersome.
Welding area assessment
Before installing the machine, the user must evaluate the possible
electromagnetic problems that may arise in the area where the installation is
planned.
. In particular, it should consider the following:
a) the presence of other power cables (power supply cables, telephone cables,
command cable, etc…)above, below and on the sides of the arc welding machine.
b) television transmitters and receivers ;
c) computers and other hardware;
d) critical safety equipment such as industrial machine protections;
e) the health and safety of the people in the area such as people with
pacemakers or hearing aids;
f) calibration and measuring equipment
g)The isolation of the equipment from other machinery.
The user will have to make sure that the devices and equipments that are in
the same room are compatible with each other. This may require extra
precautions;
h) make sure of the exact hour when the welding and/or other operations will
take place.
The surface of the area to be considered around the device depends on the the
building’s structure and other activities that take place there. The area
taken in consideration can be larger than the limits determined by the
companies.
Welding area assessment
Besides the welding area, the assessment of the arc welding systems
intallation itself can be used to identify and resolve cases of disturbances.
The assessment of emissions must include in situ measurements as specified in
Article 10 of CISPR 11. In situ measurements can also be used to confirm the
effectiveness of mitigation measures.
RECOMMENDATION ON METHODS OF ELECTROMAGNETIC EMISSIONS REDUCTION
a. National power grid: The arc welding machine must be connected to the
national power grid in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendation.
If interferences occur, it may be necessary to take additional preventive
measures such as the filtering of the power suplly network. Consideration
should be given to shielding the power supply cable in a metal conduit. It is
necessary to ensure the shielding’s electrical continuity along the cable’s
entire length. The shielding should be connected to the welding current’s
source to ensure good electrical contact between the conduct and the casing of
the welding current source.
b. Maintenance of the arc welding equipment: The arc welding machine should be
be submitted to a routine maintenance check according to the manufacturer’s
recommendations. All accesses, service doors and covers should be closed and
properly locked when the arc welding equipment is on.. The arc welding
equipment must not be modified in any way, except for the changes and settings
outlined in the manufacturer’s instructions. The spark gap of the arc start
and arc stabilization devices must be adjusted and maintained according to the
manufacturer’s recommendations.
c. Welding cables: Cables must be as short as possible, close to each other
and close to the ground, if not on the ground.
d. Electrical bonding : consideration shoud be given to bonding all metal
objects in the surrounding area. However, metal objects connected to the
workpiece increase the riskof electric shock if the operator touches both
these metal elements and the electrode. It is necessary to insulate the
operator from such metal objects.
e. Earthing of the welded part : When the part is not earthed – due to
electrical safety reasons or because of its size and its location (which is
the case with ship hulls or metallic building structures), the earthing of the
part can, in some cases but not systematically, reduce emissions It is
preferable to avoid the earthing of parts that could increase the risk of
injury to the users or damage other electrical equipment. If necessary, it is
appropriate that the earthing of the part is done directly, but in some
countries that do not allow such a direct connection, it is appropriate that
the connection is made with a capacitor selected according to national
regulations.
f. Protection and plating : The selective protection and plating of other
cables and devices in the area can reduce perturbation issues. The protection
of the entire welding area can be considered for specific situations.
TRANSPORT AND TRANSIT OF THE WELDING MACHINE
The machine is fitted with handle(s) to facilitate transportation. Be careful
not to underestimate the machine’s weight. The handle(s) cannot be used for
slinging.
Do not use the cables or torch to move the machine. The welding equipment must
be moved in an upright position.
Do not place/carry the unit over people or objects.
Never lift the machine while there is a gas cylinder on the support shelf. A
clear path is available when moving the item. The removal of the wire reel
from the machine is recommended before undertaking any lifting operation.
Stray welding currents/voltages may destroy earth conductors, damage
electrical equipment or cause components to warm up which may cause a fire.
- All welding connections must be firmly secured, check regularly !
- Check that the metal piece fixation is strong and without any electrical problems !
- Attach or hang all the electrically conductive elements, such as the trolley and slinging equipment, in order to insulate them
- Do not place any electrical equipment, such as drills or grinders, on top of the welding machine without insulating them !
- Always place welding torches holders on an insulated surface when they’re not in use !
EQUIPMENT INSTALLATION
- Put the machine on the floor (maximum incline of 10°).
- Ensure the work area has sufficient ventillation for welding, and that there is easy access to the control panel.
- The machine must not be used in an area with conductive metal dusts.
- The machine must be placed in a sheltered area away from rain or direct sunlight.
- The machine protection level is IP21, which means :
– Protection against acess to dangerous parts from solid bodies of a ≥12.5mm diameter and,
– Protection against vertically falling drops.
The power cables, extensions and welding cables must be fully uncoiled to prevent overheating.
The manufacturer does not incur any responsability regarding damages to both objects and persons that result from an incorrect and/or dangerous use of the machine .
MAINTENANCE / RECOMMENDATIONS
- Maintenance should only be carried out by a qualified person. Annual maintenance is recommended.
- Ensure the machine is unplugged from the mains, and wait for two minutes before carrying out maintenance work. DANGER High Voltage and Currents inside the machine.
- Remove the casing 2 or 3 times a year to remove any excess dust. Take this opportunity to have the electrical connections checked by a qualified person, with an insulated tool.
- Regularly check the condition of the power supply cable. If the power cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its after sales service or an equally qualified person.
- Ensure the ventilation holes of the device are not blocked to allow adequate air circulation.
- Do not use this equipment to thaw pipes, to charge batteries, or to start any engine.

SEMI-AUTOMATIC WELDING FOR STEEL / STAINLESS STEEL (MAG MODE) (FIG-II)
These machines can weld Steel and Stainless Steel wires of 0.6/0.8 or 1.0mm
(except SMARTMIG 142/152) (Fig II – A)
The machine is delivered equipped to function with Ø 0.8mm Steel/Stainless
steel wire, and the contact tip, roller throat and the sleeve of the torch
supplied are suitable for this application.
Should you wish to use 0.6mm wire, you will need to change the contact tip.
The wire reel is reversable (0.6 / 0.8mm) and will need to be inserted into
the machine so that the figure 0.6 is visible. For welding with Ø 1.0mm wire,
you will need to use a specific roller and contact tip.
For welding with Steel or Stainless Steel it is necessary to use For use with
Steel/Stainless Steel, the gas requirement is Argon + CO2. (Ar+CO2).. The
proportion of CO2 required will vary depending on the use.
For specific gas requirements, please contact your gas distributor. The gas
flow in steel is between 12 and 18 Litres/minute depending on the environment
and experience of the welder.
SEMI-AUTOMATIC WELDING FOR ALUMINIUM (MIG MODE) (FIG-II)
The SMARTMIG 152, 162, 182 & 183 are delivered equipped for welding with
Aluminium wire Ø 0.8 or 1.0mm (fig II-B) The SMARTMIG 142 is delivered
equipped for welding Aluminium of Ø 0.8mm (Occasional and non-intensive). In
this case the wire used should be stiff to facilitate wire feeding. For use
with aluminium, the gas requirement is pure argon (Ar). For the specific gas
requirements please contact your distributor. The gas flow in Aluminium is
between 20 and 30 Litres/minute depending on the environment, and the
experience of the welder. Below are the differences between welding with Steel
and Aluminium : – Specific rollers are needed for welding with Aluminium. –
Adjust the pressure of the drive rolls to prevent the wire being crushed. –
Only use a capilliary tube for welding with Steel or Stainless Steel. – Use a
special Aluminium Torch with a teflon sheath to reduce friction. DO NOT cut
the sheath close to the joint, it is used to guide the wire from the the
rollers. – Contact Tube : Use a special aluminium contact tube specific to the
diameter of wire being used.
GASLESS WIRE WELDING (FIG. III)
These machines are capable of «Gasless» wire welding (cored wire) provided
that the polarity is reversed.
To do this, turn the machine off, open up the machine (14) and make the
electrical connections described in Figure C of the page below. The Machines
are originally configured for Gas welding.
PROCESS OF REELS AND TORCHES ASSEMBLY (FIG-V)
Remove the Nozzle (fig V-E) from the torch by turning clockwise and then
remove the contact tip, leaving the support and the spring on the torch (fig
V-D).
-
Open the door of the machine
FIG V-A : Position the reel on to the support. -
In case of 100mm (142, 152, 162) wire reel use, do not install the adapter (1).
-
Adjust the reel break (2) to avoid reel movement tangling the wire when welding stops. Be careful not to tighten too much – the reel must rotate without straining the motor.
-
Tighten the plastic screw (3).
FIG V-B : Installing the drive roller. -
Choose the correct diameter reel for the type of wire. The visible diameter indicated on the roller when fitted in place is the diameter currently in use (ie. 0.8mm is visible for use with 0.8mm wire).
FIG V-C : To select the adjustment of the drive rollers, proceed as follows : -
Loosen the drive roller knob as far as possible.
-
Insert the wire until it exits the other side by about 2cm, tighten the knob again slightly.
-
Start the motor by pressing the trigger of the torch.
-
Tighten the knob (fig V-C) whilst pressing the trigger until the wire starts to move.
Nb : When welding with Aluminium, use the minimum possible pressure to avoid crushing the wire -
Pull the wire out of the end of the torch by approximately 5cm, then attach the contact tip suitable for the wire used and then the nozzle (fig V-E).
The SMARTMIG 142, 152, 162 machines can accommodate coils of 100 or 200mm diameter.
The SMARTMIG 182 machines can accommodate coils of 200 or 300mm diameter. To place a 200mm wire reel, first install the adapter (ref. 042889) on the support.
