SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Do not attempt to use this equipment until you have thoroughly read all operating and maintenance man- uals supplied with your equipment and any related welding machine it will be used with. They include important safety precautions, operating and mainte- nance instructions and parts lists.

WARNING

ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.

•Do not touch electrically live parts such as output terminals or internal wiring.

•Insulate yourself from the work and ground.

•Always wear dry insulating gloves.

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

WELDING SPARKS can cause fire or explosion.

•Keep flammable material away.

•Do not weld upon containers which have held combustibles.

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

ARC RAYS can burn.

•Wear eye, ear and body protection.

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

FUMES AND GASES can be dangerous.

• Although the removal of the particu-

late matter from welding smoke may reduce the ventilation requirement, concentrations of the clear exhausted fumes and gases may still be haz- ardous to health. Avoid breathing concentrations of these fumes and gases. Use adequate ventilation when welding. See ANSI Z49.1, "Safety in Welding and Cutting", pub- lished by the American Welding Society.

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

WARNING

Only qualified personnel should operate this equip- ment.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Always operate this equipment with the filter and arm installed and all covers in place as these provide max- imum protection from moving parts and insure proper vacuum operation and cooling air flow.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

To use the Automatic Start/Stop Arc Sensor, leave the 0/I switch on the hood (See Figure 5) in the 0 (off) position (If using a Mobiflex 200-M, the Start/Stop switch must be in the “Start” position). When an arc is sensed, the sensor will turn on the connected extrac- tion system automatically. When the arc is no longer detected, the sensor will shut the system down after 20 seconds.

Refer to Figure 5:

A.Switch with Lamp Symbol - Operates Lamp.

B.Switch with 0/I- Operates connected extraction fan (Mobiflex 200-M or SF2400 Fan).
