WARRANTY INFORMATION
This Limited Warranty supercedes all previous RW-II warranties and is exclusive, with no other guarantees or warranties expressed or implied.
Your RW-II is warranted to be free from defects in material and workmanship for a period of one year from the date of the original purchase (proof of purchase required). This warranty covers only failures due to defects in material or workmanship which occurs during normal use and does not cover damage which occurs in shipment or failures which result from accident, misuse, abuse, neglect, mishandling, misapplication, alteration, or modification of the product, or damage that is attributable to acts of God.
The warrantor shall not be responsible for any incidental or consequential damages resulting from the use of this product, or arising out of any breach of this warranty. All express and implied warranties, including the warranties or mechantability and fitness for a particular purpose, are limited to the applicable warranty period set forth above. IMPORTANT NOTICE: Certain states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages or limitations to the length of an implied warranty, therefore the above exclusions or limitations may not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights, which vary from state to state.
SAFETY
READ THESE WARNINGS - PROTECT YOURSELF AND OTHERS
BE AWARE, SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH MAY RESULT if welding or cutting equipment is not properly installed, used, and maintained. Misuse of this equipment and other practices can be both hazardous and dangerous to the operator and any persons in the general work area. The operator, supervisor, and helper must read and understand the following safety warnings and instructions before installing or using any welding or cutting equipment. The welding and/or cutting process is used in many potentially dangerous and hazardous conditions. In environments such as elevated heights, areas of limited ventilation, close quarters, around water, uncertain power sources, in hostile environments, etc., it is important that the operators are aware of the dangers and limitations associated with working in these types of conditions. Only properly trained and experienced operator(s) trained in safe practices for the environments in which they are expected to work and are under competent supervision should use this welder. It is essential that the operator, supervisor, and others in the work areas are aware of the dangers of the welding or cutting process. Training and supervision are both important and necessary for a safe work place. Please keep these instructions for future use and reference.
BE AWARE, THE FOAM IN THE RW-II CASE IS FLAMMABLE
Make sure the case is a sufficient distance from welding and cutting activity and is closed to avoid sparks, slag, or any hot material from coming in contact with the foam.
ELECTRIC SHOCK CAN CAUSE INJURY OR DEATH
Install and maintain equipment in accordance with the National Electric Code NFPA 70 and local codes. Do not service or repair equipment with power on or batteries connected. Do not operate equipment with protective insulators or covers removed. Service or repair to equipment must be done by qualified and/or trained personnel only. Operator should not and must not contact electrically live parts. Do Not touch electrode with bare skin and electrical ground at the same time. Always wear dry welding gloves in good condition. Be aware aluminized protective clothing can become part of the electrical path. Keep oxygen cylinders, chains, wire ropes, cranes, hoists, and elevators away from any part of the electrical path. All ground connections must be checked periodically to determine that they are mechanically strong and electrically adequate for the required current. When welding is to be suspended for any sustained period of time, such as during lunch or overnight, the READY WELDER II should be disconnected from its arc current power source when not in use. Never immerse MIG guns, electrode holders, TIG torches, plasma torches, or electrodes in water. SAFETY (continued)
BE AWARE, ARC RAYS, HOT SLAG AND SPARKS CAN AND DO CAUSE INJURIES TO EYES AND SKIN
The welding and/or cutting processes produce extreme localized heat and strong ultraviolet rays. Never attempt to weld and/or cut without proper welding equipment, including, but not limited to, a welding helmet with the proper lens, which complies with federal guide lines. A number 12 to 14 shade filter lens on the helmet provides the best protection against arc radiation . Please note that in a confined area prevent the reflected arc rays from entering around the helmet. It is important to make sure others are protected from arc rays and sparks. Approved shielding curtains and/or appropriate goggles should be used by all persons working in the close vicinity of the welding area to provide protection to others in the surrounding area and operators of nearby equipment. Skin should and must also be protected from arc rays, heat and molten metal. The operator must always wear protective gloves and clothing which will not allow skin to become exposed. All clothing pockets should be closed and cuffs sewn shut. Leather aprons, sleeves, leggings, etc. should and must be worn for out-of-position welding and/o r cutting. High top work shoes provide adequate protection from foot burns; for added protection, use leather spats. Flammable hair products should not be used when welding and/or cutting. Where the work permits, the operator should be enclosed in an individual booth painted with a finish of low reflectivity such as zinc oxide, an important factor for absorbing ultraviolet radiation, and lamp black, or shall be enclosed with non-combustible screens similarly painted.
BE AWARE, WELDING SPARKS CAN AND DO CAUSE FIRES AND EXPLOSIONS
Causes of fire and explosions are: combustibles reached by the arc, flame, flying sparks, hot slag or heated materials. Remove combustible materials and items from the work area and/or provide a fire watch. Avoid oily or greasy clothing as a spark may ignite them. It is necessary and required that the operator have a fire extinguisher nearby and have knowledge and training in itÂ’s use. Be aware and alert to the danger of conduction or radiation. For example , if welding and/or cutting is to be done on a metal wall, partition, ceiling or roof, precautions must be taken to prevent ignition of combustibles on the other side. Do not weld and/or cut containers that have held combustibles. All hollow spaces, cavities and containers should be and must be vented prior to welding and/or cutting to permit the escape of air or gases. Purging with inert gas is recommended. Use only inert gases or inert gas mixes as required by the process. Use of combustible compressed gases can cause explosions resulting in personal injury or death. Arcing against any compressed gases can cause explosions resulting in personal injury or death.
