HOT PARTS can cause severe burns.
1. Allow cooling period before servicing.
2. Wear protective gloves and clothing when working
on a hot engine.
ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD from
incorrect use of test equipment.
1. Stop engine before making or changing meter
lead
connections.
2. At least one meter lead should be a self-retaining
spring clip such as an alligator clamp.
3. Read instructions for test equipment.
MAGNETIC FIELDS FROM HIGH
CURRENTS can affect pacemaker
operation.
1. Pacemaker wearers keep away from servicing
areas until consulting your doctor .
UNCONTROLLED TILTING OR TIPPING
OF UNIT can result in personal injury
and equipment damage.
1. Do not put any body part under unit while lifting.
2. Use adequate blocks to support components as
needed during job.
PINCH POINTS can injure.
1. Be careful when working on stator and rotor
assemblies.
HIGH-FREQUENCY RADIATION can
interfere with radio navigation, safety
services, computers, and
communications equipment.
1. Have only qualified persons familiar with
electronic equipment perform this installation.
2. The user is responsible for having a qualified
electrician promptly correct any interference
problem resulting from the installation.
3. If notified by the FCC about interference, stop
using the equipment at once.
4. Have the installation regularly checked and
maintained.
5. Keep high-frequency source doors and panels
tightly shut, keep spark gaps at correct setting,
and use grounding and shielding to minimize the
possibility
of interference.
READ INSTRUCTIONS.
1. Use MILLER Testing Booklet (Part No. 150 853)
when servicing this unit.
2. Consult the Owner’s Manual for welding safety
precautions.
3. Use
only genuine MILLER replacement parts.
4. Reinstall injectors and bleed air from fuel system
according to engine manual.

Considerations About W elding And The Ef fects Of Low Frequency
Electric And Magnetic Fields
The following is a quotation from the General Conclusions Section
of the U.S. Congress, Of fice of T echnology Assessment, Biological
Effects of Power Frequency Electric & Magnetic Fields –
Background Paper
, OTA-BP-E-53 (Washington, DC: U.S.
Government Printing Office, May 1989): “. . . there is now a very
large volume of scientific findings based on experiments at the
cellular level and from studies with animals and people which clearly
establish that low frequency magnetic fields can interact with, and
produce changes in, biological systems. While most of this work is of
very high quality, the results are complex. Current scientific
understanding does not yet allow us to interpret the evidence in a
single coherent framework. Even more frustrating, it does not yet
allow us to draw definite conclusions about questions of possible
risk or to of fer clear science-based advice on strategies to minimize
or avoid potential risks.”
To reduce magnetic fields in the workplace, use the following
procedures:
1. Keep cables close together by twisting or taping them.
2. Arrange cables to one side and away from the operator .
3.
Do not coil or drape cables around the body .
4.
Keep welding power source and cables as far away as
practical.
5.
Connect work clamp to workpiece as close to the weld as
possible.
About Pacemakers:
The above procedures are also recommended for pacemaker
wearers. Consult your doctor for complete information.
