Electric current flowing through any conductor causes localized electric and magnetic
fields (EMF). All welders should use the following procedures in order to minimize the
risk associated with exposure to EMF from the welding circuit:
• Route the welding cables together – secure them with tape when possible
• Place your torso and head as far away as possible from the welding circuit
• Never coil welding cables around your body
• Do not place your body between welding cables. Keep both welding cables on the same
side of your body;.
• Connect the return cable to the workpiece as close as possible to the area being welded

WARNING: The electromagnetic field (EMF) generated during welding (and
allied processes) may interfere with the operation of implanted medical devices
for example: cardiac pacemakers. Persons with implanted medical devices such
as cardiac pacemakers are obliged to consult a doctor before starting to weld/
plasma cutting and to exercise special caution during work. It is forbidden for such
persons to be present in the vicinity of the place where welding/plasma cutting
processes are realized without previous consultation of a doctor.
WARNING: This Class A equipment is not intended for use in residential locations
where the electrical power is provided by the public low-voltage supply system.
There can be potential difficulties in ensuring electromagnetic compatibility in
those locations due to conducted as well radiated radio-frequency disturbances.
3.1. GENERAL
The user is responsible for installing and using the arc welding equipment according
to the manufacturer’s instructions. If electromagnetic disturbances are detected, then
it shall be the responsibility of the user of the arc welding equipment to resolve the
situation with the technical assistance of the manufacturer. In some cases this remedial
action may be as simple as earthing the welding circuit. In other cases, it could involve
constructing an electromagnetic screen enclosing the welding power source and the
work complete with associated input filters. In all cases electromagnetic disturbances
shall be reduced to the point where they are no longer troublesome.
Welding and plasma cutting processes may emit additional interferences. User is
responsibility for the interferences caused by welding and plasma cutting.
Before installing arc welding equipment, the user shall make an assessment of potential
electromagnetic interferences 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 arc welding equipment
b) radio and television transmitters and receivers
c) computer and other control equipment
d) safety critical equipment, for example guarding of industrial equipment
e) the health of the people around, for example the use of pacemakers and hearing aids

Duty cycle is the time during which You can weld or cut at a certain
load without causing overload. It is expressed in percent for time
period of complete cycle which equals 10 minutes. For example:
60% duty cycle means that for 6 minutes device can operate
at given load, after that required 4 minutes time break (no-load

Requirements for power network parameters (voltage, permissible range of mains volta- ENG
ge fluctuations etc.) are given in the table with technical parameters of device and on the
rating plate of welding machine.
• Before connecting the unit to the power source:
• Check whether the parameters comply with the requirements for unit.
• Check: mechanical condition of the power cord and plug. The connection status of
the power cord with plug and unit (loose not allowed). If the power cord or plug is
damaged or loose connection is between them, it is forbidden to connect the welder
until fault has been rectified.
• Connect the welding machine only to the network where the power outlet is properly
grounded.
NOTE: In some cases, colours of power cords may vary from those shown on diagram.
For example when the device has a four-wired three phase power cord. In this case, the PE
protective conductor (yellow-green) must be connected to the terminal which is provided
for it . And the other cables must be connected to the appropriate terminals L1, L2,
L3. If one of the wires colour is blue - do not connect it to the terminal N - neutral. In this
case blue cable is one of the phase conductors (L1, L2, L3). It applies to four-wired three
phase power cord.

Before connecting the equipment and compressed air to device,
make sure that the unit is disconnected from the source power
and the power switch [see 7.3 no.7] is in the OFF position.
1. Before connecting the plasma torch, make sure that the control pins in the plug are
connected like in scheme in point 7.9.
2. Connect the plug into central socket [see 7.3 no.4] with due care and caution. Pay
particular attention to the fitting of control pins.
3. Secure the connection by tightening the lock nut. Check whether there is no slack.

SPARTUS Pro CUT 65 CNC device is equipped as standard with system of contactless
arc ignition but no HF (without high-frequency generator). The pilot arc is ignited by
shifting back of the electrode. There is no needed to contact the nozzle tip to surface to
ignite the plasma arc.
For manual plasma cutting, use a special adapters which are included to the plasma
torch. It is important to puncture properly through the material and guide the plasma
burner at a suitable speed to maintain the proper penetration through material..
You should replace nozzle or electrode for a new one in the following cases:
• When the nozzle head (the hole in the nozzle) is deformed
• When the electrode worn out above 1,5mm
• During free cutting plasma arc appear green flames
• Cutting gap is inclined or too wide.
