DISCHARGE PROCEDURE

WARNING

For any maintenance or repair operations it is recom- mended to contact the nearest technical service cen- ter or Lincoln Electric. Maintenance or repairs per- formed by unauthorized service centers or personnel will null and void the manufacturers warranty.

WARNING

The machine has internal capacitors which are charged to a high voltage during power-on conditions. This voltage is dangerous and must be discharged before the machine can be serviced. Discharging is done automatically by the machine each time the power is switched off. However, you must allow the machine to sit for at least 5 minutes to allow time for the process to take place.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

ROUTINE MAINTENANCE

The frequency of the maintenance operations may vary in accordance with the working environment. Any noticeable damage should be reported immedi- ately.

•Check cables and connections integrity. Replace, if necessary.

•Clean the power source inside by means of low - pressure compressed air.

•Keep the machine clean. Use a soft dry cloth to clean the external case, especially the airflow inlet / outlet louvers

WARNING

Do not open this machine and do not introduce any- thing into its openings. Power supply must be discon- nected from the machine before each maintenance and service. After each repair, perform proper tests to ensure safety.

CAUTION

Power supply must be disconnected from the machine before each maintenance and service. Always use gloves in compliance with the safety standards.
