1.3 GENERAL SAFETY

The operator should be properly trained to use the welder safely and should be informed about the risks relating to mig and arc welding

procedures, the associated protection measures and emergency procedures. (Refer also to the “IEC TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION or CLC/TS 62081:

INSTALLATION AND USE OF EQUIPMENT FOR ARC WELDING”)

 DANGER! Unplug the welder from the mains power supply before performing maintenance or service.

 Keep the welder and cables in good working order and condition. (Take immediate action to repair or replace damaged parts).

 Use genuine parts and accessories only. (Non recommended parts may be dangerous and will invalidate the warranty).

 Use an air hose to regularly blow out any dirt from the liner and keep the welder clean for best and safest performance.

 Check and spray the gas cup and contact tip regularly with anti-spatter spray available from your Sealey dealer.

 Locate welder in adequate working area for its function. Ensure area has adequate ventilation as welding fumes are harmful.

 Keep working area clean, tidy and free from unrelated materials. Also ensure the working area has adequate lighting, and that a fire extinguisher is at hand.

 WARNING: Always use a welding helmet or mask to protect your eyes.

Use special fire resistant protective clothing and do not allow the skin to be exposed to the ultraviolet and infrared rays produced by the arc. Other

people in the viscinity of the arc should be protected by shields of non reflecting welding curtains.

The operator should be adequately insulated from the electrode, the work piece and any accessible earthed metal parts in the viscinity by the

wearing of safety shoes and welding gauntlets plus the aforementioned safety clothing.

Where necessary the operator should work on insulating matts or on an insulated safety platform in elevated positions.

 Remove ill fitting clothing, remove ties, watches, rings, and other loose jewellery, and contain long hair.

 Ensure the workpiece is correctly secured before operating the welder.

 Avoid unintentional contact with workpiece. Accidental or uncontrolled use of the torch may be dangerous and will wear the nozzle.

 Keep non essential persons away from the working area. Any persons working within the area must use protective head shield and gloves.

 Operators must receive adequate training before using the welder. The welder must only be operated under supervision.

 Stand correctly keeping a good footing and balance, and ensure the floor is not slippery, and wear non-slip shoes.

 Turn voltage switch to "0" or off when not in use.

 DO NOT operate the welder if it or its cables are damaged and DO NOT attempt to fit any non genuine torches, components, or parts to the welder unit.

 DO NOT get welder wet or use in damp or wet locations or areas where there is condensation.

 DANGER! DO NOT weld near inflammable materials, solids, liquids, or gases, and DO NOT weld containers or pipes which have held flammable

materials or gases, liquids or solids. Avoid operating on materials cleaned with chlorinated solvents or near such solvents.

 DO NOT touch any live metal parts of the torch or electrode while the machine is switched on.

 DO NOT weld on any containers which are under pressure.

 DO NOT pull the welder by the mains cable or by the umbilical connection cable. DO NOT pull the wire feed unit by the umbilical connection cable or by the

torch cable, and DO NOT bend or strain cables, protect from sharp or abrasive items, and DO NOT stand on cables

or leads. Protect from heat. Long lengths of slack must be gathered & neatly coiled. DO NOT place cables where they endanger others.

1.1 ELECTRICAL SAFETY.  WARNING! It is the user’s responsibility to read, understand and comply with the following:

You must check all electrical equipment and appliances to ensure they are safe before using. You must inspect power supply leads, plugs and all electrical

connections for wear and damage. You must ensure the risk of electric shock is minimised by the installation of appropriate safety devices. An RCCB (Residual

Current Circuit Breaker) should be incorporated in the main distribution board. We also recommend that an RCD (Residual Current Device) is used with all

electrical products. It is particularly important to use an RCD together with portable products that are plugged into an electrical supply not protected by an RCCB. If

in doubt consult a professional electrician. You may obtain a Residual Current Device by contacting your Sealey dealer. You must also read and understand the

following instructions concerning electrical safety.

1.1.1 The Electricity At Work Act 1989 requires all portable electrical appliances, if used on business premises, to be tested by a qualified Electrician at least

once a year, using a Portable Appliance Tester (PAT).

1.1.2 The Health & Safety at Work Act 1974 makes owners of electrical appliances responsible for the safe condition of the appliance, and the safety of the

appliance operator. If in any doubt about electrical safety, contact a qualified electrician.

1.1.3 Ensure the insulation on all cables and the product itself is safe before connecting to the mains power supply. See 1.1.1. & 1.1.2. above and use a

Portable Appliance Tester (PAT).

1.1.4 Ensure that cables are always protected against short circuit and overload.

1.1.5 Regularly inspect power supply, leads, plugs and all electrical connections for wear and damage, especially power connections, to ensure that none are

loose.

1.1.6 Important: Ensure the voltage marked on the product is the same as the electrical power supply to be used, and check that plugs are fitted with correct capacity fuse.

1.1.7 DO NOT pull or carry the powered appliance by its power supply lead or output cables.

1.1.8 DO NOT pull power plugs from sockets by the power cable.

1.1.9 DO NOT use worn or damage leads, plugs or connections. Immediately replace or have repaired by a qualified Electrician. These particular welders are
