D Wearers of Pacemakers and other Implanted
Medical Devices should keep away.
DImplanted Medical Device wearers should consult their doctor and the device manufacturer before going near arc welding, spot welding, gouging, plasma arc cutting, or induction heating operations.
OVERUSE can cause OVERHEATING.
DAllow cooling period; follow rated duty cycle.
DReduce amperage (thickness) or reduce duty cycle before starting to cut again.
EXPLODING HYDROGEN hazard.
DWhen cutting aluminum underwater or with the water touching the underside of the aluminum, free hydrogen gas may collect under the work- piece.
DSee your cutting engineer and water table instructions for help.
FALLING EQUIPMENT can injure.
DUse lifting eye to lift unit only, NOT running gear, gas cylinders, or any other accessories.
DUse equipment of adequate capacity to lift unit.
DIf using lift forks to move unit, be sure forks are long enough to ex- tend beyond opposite side of unit.

ARC CUTTING can cause interference.
DElectromagnetic energy can interfere with sensitive electronic equipment such as computers and
DTo reduce possible interference, keep cables as short as possible, close together, and down low, such as on the floor.
DLocate cutting operation 100 meters from any sensitive electronic equipment.
DBe sure this cutting power source is installed and grounded according to this manual.
DIf interference still occurs, the user must take extra measures such as moving the machine, using shielded cables, using line filters, or shielding the work area.
