1.02 Important Safety

Precautions

WARNING

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE OF

ARC WELDING EQUIPMENT CAN BE

DANGEROUS AND HAZARDOUS TO

YOUR HEALTH.

To prevent possible injury, read, understand and

follow all warnings, safety precautions and

instructions before using the equipment. Call 1-

603-298-5711 or your local distributor if you

have any questions.

GASES AND FUMES

Gases and fumes produced during the Arc

welding/cutting process can be dangerous and

hazardous to your health.

• Keep all fumes and gases from the breathing

area. Keep your head out of the welding fume

plume.

• Use an air-supplied respirator if ventilation is

not adequate to remove all fumes and gases.

• The kinds of fumes and gases from the arc

welding/cutting depend on the kind of metal

being used, coatings on the metal, and the

different processes. You must be very careful

when cutting or welding any metals which

may contain one or more of the following:

Antimony Chromium Mercury

Arsenic Cobalt Nickel

Barium Copper Selenium

Beryllium Lead Silver

Cadmium Manganese Vanadium

• Always read the Material Safety Data Sheets

(MSDS) that should be supplied with the

material you are using. These MSDSs will give

you the information regarding the kind and

amount of fumes and gases that may be

dangerous to your health.

• For information on how to test for fumes and

gases in your workplace, refer to item 1 in

Subsection 1.03, Publications in this manual.

• Use special equipment, such as water or down

draft welding/cutting tables, to capture fumes

and gases.

• Do not use the welding torch in an area where

combustible or explosive gases or materials are

located.

• Phosgene, a toxic gas, is generated from the

vapors of chlorinated solvents and cleansers.

Remove all sources of these vapors.

ELECTRIC SHOCK

Electric Shock can injure or kill. The arc welding

process uses and produces high voltage electrical

energy. This electric energy can cause severe or fatal

shock to the operator or others in the workplace.

• Never touch any parts that are electrically

“live” or “hot.”

• Wear dry gloves and clothing. Insulate yourself

from the work piece or other parts of the

welding circuit.

• Repair or replace all worn or damaged parts.

• Extra care must be taken when the workplace is

moist or damp.

GENERAL INFORMATION

• Install and maintain equipment according to

NEC code, refer to item 4 in Subsection 1.03,

Publications.

• Disconnect power source before performing any

service or repairs.

• Read and follow all the instructions in the

Operating Manual.

FIRE AND EXPLOSION

Fire and explosion can be caused by hot slag, sparks,

or the arc weld.

• Be sure there is no combustible or flammable

material in the workplace. Any material that

cannot be removed must be protected.

• Ventilate all flammable or explosive vapors

from the workplace.

• Do not cut or weld on containers that may have

held combustibles.

• Provide a fire watch when working in an area

where fire hazards may exist.

• Hydrogen gas may be formed and trapped

under aluminum workpieces when they are

cut underwater or while using a water table.

DO NOT cut aluminum alloys underwater or

on a water table unless the hydrogen gas can

be eliminated or dissipated. Trapped

hydrogen gas that is ignited will cause an

explosion.

NOISE

Noise can cause permanent hearing loss. Arc

welding/cutting processes can cause noise levels to

exceed safe limits. You must protect your ears from

loud noise to prevent permanent loss of hearing.

• To protect your hearing from loud noise, wear

protective ear plugs and/or ear muffs. Protect

others in the workplace.

• Noise levels should be measured to be sure the

decibels (sound) do not exceed safe levels.

• For information on how to test for noise, see

item 1 in Subsection 1.03, Publications, in this

manual.

ARC WELDING RAYS

Arc Welding/Cutting Rays can injure your eyes and

burn your skin. The arc welding/cutting process

produces very bright ultra violet and infra red light.

These arc rays will damage your eyes and burn your

skin if you are not properly protected.

• To protect your eyes, always wear a welding

helmet or shield. Also always wear safety

glasses with side shields, goggles or other

protective eye wear.

• Wear welding gloves and suitable clothing to

protect your skin from the arc rays and sparks.

• Keep helmet and safety glasses in good

(Voir la page 5, article 9.)

• Débranchez l’alimentation électrique avant tout

travail d’entretien ou de réparation.

• Lisez et respectez toutes les consignes du

Manuel de consignes.

INCENDIE ET EXPLOSION

Les incendies et les explosions peuvent résulter des

scories chaudes, des étincelles ou de l’arc de plasma.

Le procédé à l’arc de plasma produit du métal, des

étincelles, des scories chaudes pouvant mettre le feu

aux matières combustibles ou provoquer l’explosion

de fumées inflammables.

• Soyez certain qu’aucune matière combustible

ou inflammable ne se trouve sur le lieu de

travail. Protégez toute telle matière qu’il est

impossible de retirer de la zone de travail.

• Procurez une bonne aération de toutes les

fumées inflammables ou explosives.

• Ne coupez pas et ne soudez pas les conteneurs

NOTE: It is the installer's responsibility to follow the

applicable rules from the National Electrical Code

(NEC), state, local, and OSHA codes for the

installation and use of auxiliary power generators.

Customer-supplied equipment is required if generator is to

supply standby power during emergencies or power

outages.

2.14 Auxiliary Power

Requirements

The following section provides some general guidelines for

the installation and operation of an auxiliary power generator.

Not all the guidelines may be applicable to this specific unit.

The auxiliary power supplied from the generator is most

commonly used in industrial, small business and

residential applications. For industrial applications, a

portable unit can be moved to the job site to power

portable tools, lights, compressors, etc. For small

business and residential applications, the generator

supplies standby power during a power outage.

It is the installer’s responsibility to follow all applicable

codes when installing an auxiliary power generator. It is

also the installer’s responsibility to determine if the

generator is capable of supplying adequate power for a

specific application. When installing consult qualified

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

local personnel and follow all applicable codes for safe

and proper installation.

Before the generator may be used to supply power, the

installer must first become familiar with and meet all

codes applicable to the installation of an auxiliary

generator. It is the installer's responsibility to follow the

applicable rules from the National Electrical Code (NEC),

state, local, and OSHA codes for the installation and use

of auxiliary power generators.

LOAD EVALUATION

Before connecting or operating the auxiliary power

generator, the installer must determine if the generator is

capable of supplying adequate power for a specific

application. Load and generator evaluation is essential for

satisfactory generator and equipment operation.

TYPES OF LOAD

Load requirements depend on the type of load connected

to the generator. There are two types of loads, resistive

and non-resistive. A resistive load, such as a light bulb,

requires a constant amount of power from the generator.

A non-resistive load, such as a portable grinder, requires

variable amounts of power from the generator. Because a

grinder requires more power for motor starting and is

rarely used with a constant, even pressure, the load

requirements can change greater than the operator

anticipates.

RUNNING LOAD REQUIREMENTS

The total running load applied to the generator is

calculated by adding up all the individual loads. Some

requirements are rated in amperes, others in watts. The

requirements for most equipment is provided on its

nameplate.

Example 1: If a drill requires 5 amperes at 115 volts,

calculate its running power requirements in watts.

VOLTS x AMPERES = WATTS

115V x 5A = 575W

Therefor, the individual load applied by the drill is 575

watts.

Example 2: If a light bulb is rated at 200 watts, the

individual load applied the light bulb is 200 watts. If

three 200 watt light bulbs are used with the drill from

example 1 add the individual loads to calculate total load.

(200W + 200W + 200W) + 575W = 1175W

Therefore the total load applied by the three light bulbs

and drill is 1175 watts.

Motor-starting Requirements

Starting amperage requirements are many times the

running amperage of the motor. Starting requirements

must be determined to assure that the generator is capable

of starting the motor without damaging it. This can be

done by examining the motor nameplate and identifying

the code letter specifying the starting kVA/HP required.

Motor Start

Code Leter

KVA/HP

G6.3

H7.1

J8.0

K9.0

L 10.0

M 11.2

N 12.5

P 14.0

If the kVA/HP requirement, motor horsepower, and

voltage rating are known, the starting amperage can be

calculated.

Example: Calculate the starting amperage required for a

230V, ¼ HP motor with a motor start code of G.

Equation

KVA/HP x HP x 1000

= STARTING AMPERAGE

VOLTS

Volts = 230

HP = ¼

Code G results in kVA/HP = 6.3

6.3 x ¼ x 1000

= 6.85A

230

Therefore, starting the motor requires 6.85 amperes.

If a code letter is not present on the motor nameplate,

approximate starting amperage is equal to six times

running amperage. This is a reasonable approximation for

all applications where the generator rated amperage is at

least twice the motor requirement. If the generator-to-

motor-size ratio is less than 2:1 acquire the needed

information to properly determine the motor-starting

requirement.
