● Keep hot workpiece after welding away from flammable gas.
● Do move away the combustible around when weld the dooryard, ground and wall,.
● The wire connection of base metal should be as close to the welding place as possible.
● Never weld those facilities with gas pipe or airtight slot.
● Put fire extinguisher around the welding area to prevent fire.
The gas and fumes are harmful to health, please wear protective device
according to regulations.
● Wear exhaust equipment and breathe preventive facilities to prevent gas poisoning or choke.
● Use suggested part exhaust equipment and breathe preventive facilities to prevent hurt or poisoning
by gas and other powder, please.
● To prevent oxygen-deficiency, air out the gas-filled room which is full of CO2 and argon on the
bottom, When operating on trunks, boilers, cabins, etc.
● Please accept the supervisor’s inspection when operating in narrow space. Air the room and wear
breathe preventive facilities.
● Never operate in degrease, washing or spray space.
● Using breathe preventive facilities when weld shielded steel for it will cause poisonous dust and gas.
The arc, spark, residue and noise are harmful to health, please wear
protective appliance.
● Eye protection against arc is recommended when welding or supervise welding.
● Please wear preventive spectacles.
● Welder’s gloves, welder’s goggles, long sleeve clothes, leather apron, and other standard protection
equipments must be worn for welding operation.
● A screen to protect other people against the arc must be set in the welding place.

7
Please follow the notes below to avoid gas cylinder toppling over or broken.
● Use the gas cylinder correctly.
● Use the equipped or recommended gaseous regulator.
● Read the manual of gaseous regulator carefully before using it, and pay attention to the safety
notes.
● Fix the gas cylinder with appropriative holder and other relative parts.
● Never put the cylinder under high temperature or sunshine environment.
● Keep your face away from the gas cylinder exit when opening it.
● Put on the gas shield when it is not used.
● Never put the torch on the gas cylinder. The electrode can not meet the gas cylinder.
Any touch of the switch part will cause injury, please note the following.
● Never use the machine when the enclosure is off.
● Install, operate, check and maintain the machine by professional person.
● Keep your fingers, hair, clothes etc. away from the switch parts such as the fan.
The wire end may deal damage, please note the following.
● Never look into the electric conduction hole when checking the wire feeding is normal or not, , or the
shooting wire may stab your eyes and face.
● Keep your eyes, face or other naked parts away from the end of torch when feeding the wire
manually or pressing the switch.
For better work efficiency and power source maintenance, please note the
following.
● Precautions against toppling over.
● Never use the welding equipment for pipe thawing.
● Lift the power source from side when use the up-down forklift truck to avoid toppling over.
● When using the crane for lift, tie the rope to the ears with an angle no more than φ15 to the vertical
direction.
● When lifting the welding machine which equipped with gas cylinder and wire feeder, download them
from the power source and ensure the horizontal of the machine. Do fix the gas cylinder with belt or
chain when moving it to avoid body hurt.
● Ensure fastness and insulation when lifting the wire feeder through the swing ring for welding.

Electromagnetic interference needing attention.
● It may need extra preventive measures when the equipment is used in particular location.
● Before the installation, please estimate the potential electromagnetism problems of the environment
as follows.
a)Upper and lower parts of the welding equipments and other nearby power cable, control cable,
signal cable and phone cable.
b) Wireless electric as well as TV radiation and reception equipment.
c) Computer and other control equipments.
d) Safety-recognition equipment etc. Such as supervise of industrial equipments.
e) Health of people around. Such as personnel using the heart pacemaker or audiphone.
f) Equipments for adjustment and measurement.
g)Anti-disturb capability of other used equipments .Users should ensure these equipments and the
environment are compatible, which may need extra preventive measures.
h) Practical state of the welding and other activities.
● Users should observe the following dos and don’ts to decrease radiation interference.
a) Connect the welding equipments to the power supply lines.
b) Maintain the welding equipments regularly.
c) The cable should be short enough to be close to each other and the ground.
d) Ensure the safety of all the welding metal parts and other parts nearby.
e) The workpiece should be well earth.
f) Shield or protect the other cable and equipments to decrease the effects of disturbances. The
welding equipments can be complete shielded in some special conditions.
● Users are responsible for interference due to welding.

MACHINE DESCRIPTION
The welding machine is a rectifier adopting the most advanced inverter technology.
The development of inverter welding equipment profits from the development of the inverter power supply
theory and components. The inverter welding power source utilizes high-power component single tube IGBT
to transfer 50/60Hz frequency up to 15KHz, then reduce the voltage and commutate, and output high-power
voltage via PWM technology. Because of the great reduce of the main transformer’s weight and volume; the
efficiency increases by 30%. The appearance of inverter welding equipment is considered to be a revolution
for welding industry.
The welding power source can offer stronger, more concentrated and more stable arc. When stick and work
piece get short, its response will be quicker. It means that it is easier to design into welding machine with
different dynamic characteristics, and it even can be adjusted for specialty to make arc softer or harder.
ARC welding machine has the following characteristics: effective, power saving, compact, stable arc, good
welding pool, high no-load voltage, and good capacity of force compensation and multi-use. It can weld
stainless steel, alloy steel, carbon steel, copper and other color metal. It can apply to electrode of different
specifications and materials, including acidity, alkalescence, and fiber. It can apply in high altitude, the open
air and inside and outside decoration. Compared with the same products of home and abroad, it is compact
in volume, light in weight, easy to install and operate.
The welding machine is most suitable for those places where require high quality welding performance, such
as welding on pipeline, boiler, vacuum pressure vessel, which can achieve very excellent effect. Moreover, this
machine, which possesses high enough no-load voltage and output capacity, suitability for wide electric grid (it
can go on working under the power supply range from 160V to 460V), and built-in voltage automatic transfer
equipment, can work reliable under 1 phase AC220V and 2phase AC380V, adapt to different power voltage,
so that to satisfy the clients’ requirements better.
Thanks for purchasing our product and hope for your precious advice. We will dedicate to produce the best
products and offer the best service.
WARNING!
The machine is mainly used in industry. It will produce radio wave, so the worker should make
fully preparation for protection.
