Conformance
Products displaying the CE mark are in conformity with European Community Council Directive of 3 May
1989 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to electromagnetic compatibility
(89/336/EEC). It was manufactured in conformity with a national standard that implements a harmonized
standard: EN 60974-10 Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) Product Standard for Arc Welding Equipment.
It is for use with other Lincoln Electric equipment. It is designed for industrial and professional use.
Introduction
All electrical equipment generates small amounts of electromagnetic emission. Electrical emission may be
transmitted through power lines or radiated through space, similar to a radio transmitter. When emissions
are received by other equipment, electrical interference may result. Electrical emissions may affect many
kinds of electrical equipment; other nearby welding equipment, radio and TV reception, numerical controlled
machines, telephone systems, computers, etc. Be aware that interference may result and extra precautions
may be required when a welding power source is used in a domestic establishment.
Return to Master TOC
Note: The welding circuit may or may not be earthed for safety reasons according to national
codes. Changing the earthing arrangements should only be authorized by a person who is
competent to access whether the changes will increase the risk of injury, e.g., by allowing
parallel welding current return paths which may damage the earth circuits of other equip-
ment.
Return to Master TOC
Assessment of Area
Before installing welding equipment the user shall make an assessment of potential electromagnetic prob-
lems in the surrounding area. The following shall be taken into account:
a) other supply cables, control cables, signaling and telephone cables; above, below and adjacent to the
welding equipment;
e) the health of the people around, e.g., the use of pacemakers and hearing aids;
g) the immunity of other equipment in the environment. The user shall ensure that other equipment being
used in the environment is compatible. This may require additional protection measures;
h) the time of day that welding or other activities are to be carried out.
L10093 3-1-96H
The size of the surrounding area to be considered will depend on the structure of the building and other
activities that are taking place. The surrounding area may extend beyond the boundaries of the premises.
Mains Supply
Welding equipment should be connected to the mains supply according to the manufacturerʼs recommen-
dations. If interference occurs, it may be necessary to take additional precautions such as filtering of the
mains supply. Consideration should be given to shielding the supply cable of permanently installed welding
equipment, in metallic conduit or equivalent. Shielding should be electrically continuous throughout its
length. The shielding should be connected to the welding power source so that good electrical contact is
maintained between the conduit and the welding power source enclosure.
The welding equipment should be routinely maintained according to the manufacturerʼs recommendations.
All access and service doors and covers should be closed and properly fastened when the welding equip-
ment is in operation. The welding equipment should not be modified in any way except for those changes
and adjustments covered in the manufacturers instructions. In particular, the spark gaps of arc striking and
stabilizing devices should be adjusted and maintained according to the manufacturerʼs recommendations.
Welding Cables
The welding cables should be kept as short as possible and should be positioned close together, running at
or close to floor level.
Equipotential Bonding
Bonding of all metallic components in the welding installation and adjacent to it should be considered.
However, metallic components bonded to the work piece will increase the risk that the operator could
receive a shock by touching these metallic components and the electrode at the same time. The operator
should be insulated from all such bonded metallic components.

The rocker is the part of the welding generator that supports and positions the 4 sets of
brushes. Its position can be adjusted to fine tune the weld output and influence the weld
characteristics.
Important: The rocker is set at the factory for the best overall performance and long gen-
erator and brush life. Altering this adjustment is normally not recommended unless one or
more of the welding generator components affecting this setting have been replaced. In
very unusual situations, very small adjustments of the rocker may be beneficial if the
machine is operating within the specified limits, but the Arc characteristics are unsatisfac-
tory for the desired application.
CAUTION: Improper rocker adjustment can result in poor performance, reduced
brush life and damage to the welding generator. This adjustment should
only be attempted by an experienced professional.
