SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

ELECTRIC SHOCK

can kill.

• Have an electrician install and ser-

vice this equipment.

• Turn the input power off at the fuse

box, disconnect supply lines and

allow machine to sit for five minutes

minimum to allow the power capaci-

tors to discharge before working

inside this equipment.

• Do not touch electrically hot parts.

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

INPUT FILTER CAPACITOR
DISCHARGE PROCEDURE

For any maintenance or repair operations it is recom-

mended to contact the nearest technical service center

or Lincoln Electric. Maintenance or repairs performed

by unauthorized service centers or personnel will null

and void the manufacturers warranty.

The machine has internal capacitors which are

charged to a high voltage during power-on conditions.

This voltage is dangerous and must be discharged

before the machine can be serviced. Discharging is

done automatically by the machine each time the

power is switched off. However, you must allow the

machine to sit for at least 5 minutes to allow time for the

process to take place.

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

ROUTINE MAINTENANCE

The frequency of the maintenance operations may

vary in accordance with the working environment. Any

noticeable damage should be reported immediately.

• Check cables and connections integrity. Replace, if

necessary.

• Clean the power source inside by means of low -

pressure compressed air.

• Keep the machine clean. Use a soft dry cloth to clean

the external case, especially the airflow inlet / outlet

louvers.

Do not open this machine and do not introduce any-

thing into its openings. Power supply must be discon-

nected from the machine before each maintenance

and service. After each repair, perform proper tests to

ensure safety.

Power supply must be disconnected from the machine

before each maintenance and service. Always use

gloves in compliance with the safety standards.

THERMAL PROTECTION

The V155-S has a thermal,protective device (PTC) on

the Output Rectifier to protect against excessive durty

cycle. It also has an auto resetting fuse (ARFU) on the

Input Board to protect against incorrect line voltage

when connectecd to 120VAC. If either device opens,

the Thermal LED on the front panel will turn ON. See

the Operarion Section or the Troubleshooting Section

of this manual for corrective action.
