4.4 Principles of Operation
This product is designed to capture and clean smoke and dust from medium & heavy duty welding, soldering, and
grinding applications. When operating, air is drawn in to the nozzle, passes through the 6” diameter hose, then
through the air cleaner’s ltration system, and is exhausted through the rear discharge.
This product consists of four basic components:
1. Capture Arm(s)
2. A blower
3. Cartridge Filter
4. Motor & Electrical assemblies
• The operator is to positon the machine within operating distance, and activate the caster wheel brakes.
• The operator can then position the capture arm close enough to the worksite to capture all dust and fumes that
will be produced.
• Ensuring that all safety procedures have been followed, the operator can turn on the machine and begin working.
• When not in use, the machine should be turned o.
4.5 Failure Event
If, for some reason, during operation there is an accident, a blockage occurs, the Minihelic displays abnormal pressure
dierences, or the machine begins to act abnormally, the operator should immediately shut o the machine. This is
considered a machine failure and the following steps should be taken:
1. Turn the power switch to the OFF position.
3. Seek medical attention if an accident occurred.
4. Follow the guidelines in SECTION 5: Maintenance and Troubleshooting.
Remember, under no circumstance should the machine be turned back on while performing maintenance.
