FALLING EQUIPMENT can cause serious personal injury and equipment damage.

1.Use lifting eye to lift unit only, NOT running gear, gas cylinders, or any other accessories.

2.Use equipment of adequate capacity to lift unit.

MAGNETIC FIELDS FROM HIGH CURRENTS can affect pacemaker operation.

1.Pacemaker wearers keep away from servicing areas until consulting your doctor.

MOVING PARTS can cause injury.

1.Keep away from moving parts such as fans.

2.Keep all doors, panels, covers, and guards closed and securely in place.

MOVING PARTS can cause injury.

1.Keep away from moving parts.

2.Keep away from pinch points such as drive rolls.

OVERUSE can cause OVERHEATED EQUIPMENT.

1.Allow cooling period.

2.Reduce current or reduce duty cycle before starting to weld again.

3.Follow rated duty cycle.

READ INSTRUCTIONS.

1.Use MILLER Testing Booklet (Part No. 150 853) when servicing this unit.

2.Consult the Owner’s Manual for welding safety precautions.

3.Use only genuine MILLER replacement parts.

Considerations About Welding And The Effects Of Low Frequency Electric And Magnetic Fields

The following is a quotation from the General Conclusions Section of the U.S. Congress, Office of Technology Assessment, Biological Effects of Power Frequency Electric & Magnetic Fields – Background Paper, OTA-BP-E-53 (Washington, DC: U.S. Government Printing Office, May 1989): “. . . there is now a very large volume of scientific findings based on experiments at the cellular level and from studies with animals and people which clearly establish that low frequency magnetic fields can interact with, and produce changes in, biological systems. While most of this work is of very high quality, the results are complex. Current scientific understanding does not yet allow us to interpret the evidence in a single coherent framework. Even more frustrating, it does not yet allow us to draw definite conclusions about questions of possible risk or to offer clear science-based advice on strategies to minimize or avoid potential risks.”

To reduce magnetic fields in the workplace, use the following procedures:

1.Keep cables close together by twisting or taping them.

2.Arrange cables to one side and away from the operator.

3.Do not coil or drape cables around the body.

4.Keep welding power source and cables as far away as practical.

5.Connect work clamp to workpiece as close to the weld as possible.

About Pacemakers:

The above procedures are also recommended for pacemaker wearers. Consult your doctor for complete information.
