Keep cables away from heat, oil and sharp edges. Replace dam-
aged cables.
DISCONNECT TOOLS: Disconnect welding equipment when not in
use, before servicing, and when changing accessories such as
blades, bits and cutters.
AVOID UNINTENTIONAL OPERATION: Don’t carry plugged in weld-
ing equipment with a finger on the switch. Be sure that the
switch is off when plugging in.
OUTDOOR USE EXTENSION CABLES: When electric power equip-
ment is used outdoors, only use extension cables marked as suit-
able for outdoor use.
STAY ALERT: Watch what you are doing. Use common sense. Do
not operate welders when you are tired or under the influence of
alcohol or drugs.
CHECK DAMAGED PARTS: Before using welding equipment, parts
that are damaged should be carefully checked to determine that
they will operate properly and perform their intended function.
Any part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced
by an authorized service agent. Have defect switches replaced by
an authorized repair agent. Do not operate power equipment if it
cannot be turned off and on by the switch.

built in accordance with relevant safety authority requirements.
