General Power Tool Safety
Warnings
WARNING Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to
follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/
or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your mains-operated
(corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
Work Area Safety
a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite
accidents
b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as
in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools
create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes

100A Inverter Arc Welder846386
c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control
Electrical Safety
a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in
any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded)
power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk
of electric shock
b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as
pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased
risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded
c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water
entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock
d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or
unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp
edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the
risk of electric shock
e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord
suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use
reduces the risk of electric shock
f) If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use
a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD
reduces the risk of electric shock
NOTE: The term “residual current device (RCD)” may be replaced by
the term “ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI)” or “earth leakage
circuit breaker (ELCB)”.
Personal Safety
a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense
when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you
are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication.
A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in
serious personal injury
b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection.
Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard
hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce
personal injuries
c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the
off-position before connecting to power source and/or battery
pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your
finger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on
invites accidents
d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power
tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power
tool may result in personal injury
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your
hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes,
jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts
g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction
and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly
used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards
Power Tool Use & Care
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your
application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at
the rate for which it was designed
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off.
Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous
and must be repaired
c) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery
pack from the power tool before making any adjustments,
changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive
safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do
not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these
instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous
in the hands of untrained users
e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of
moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may
affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power
tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained power tools
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting
tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier
to control
g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance
with these instructions, taking into account the working
conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for
operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous
situation
Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using
only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of
the power tool is maintained
Welding Safety
• Welding produces toxic fumes and can reduce oxygen levels in the
work area. Always work in a well-ventilated area. Avoid inhaling welding
fumes, use a suitable respirator where appropriate
• Some metal parts may have zinc, lead, cadmium or other coatings.
Attempting to weld through these coatings can produce highly toxic
fumes. Always remove all coatings before welding
• If you experience irritation to the lungs, throat or eyes whilst welding,
STOP IMMEDIATELY and seek fresh air
• Welding produces extremely high levels of UV light. To prevent eye
damage, ALWAYS use an approved welding face mask. Under no
circumstances look directly at the arc
• The light produced when arc welding can be attractive to look at,
especially to children. Always prevent other people from viewing the arc
welding light with unprotected eyes
• If there is a possibility of other people approaching the work area, erect
suitable screening to protect them from the light / glare
• Always replace the welder face mask glass as soon as it shows any
signs of wear or damage
• To prevent skin damage, ALWAYS wear a suitable fire-proof long sleeved
jacket, heat proof gloves, and cap. Keep covered up
• Always remove any flammable materials (e.g. cigarette lighter, matches)
from your clothing before welding
• Always keep a fire extinguisher nearby when welding
• Sparks generated while welding can ignite flammable materials easily in
the welding area, so it is important to remove flammable materials before
commencing welding
• Only weld when the work area and all workpieces are dry
• Do not weld sealed containers (e.g. fuel tanks, air tanks, oil drums).
The heat generated from welding can cause sealed containers to burst
without warning
• Be aware of transferred heat. Metal parts can conduct heat away from
the work area and cause ignition of flammable materials
• Be aware that welded parts will remain hot for some time after joining.
Allow to cool completely before handling, or leaving unattended
• Never weld where flammable gases, liquids or dust are present
• Ensure that there is always a responsible person nearby to alert you to
any fire, or to call help in an emergency
• Use of welding machines will create powerful magnetic fields. This may
disturb the operation of sensitive electronic equipment. Pacemaker
wearers should consult a doctor before using a welding machine
• Do not overload power supply. Check that your mains wiring is capable of
delivering the required current safely (see specification)

Preparation
Assembling the Welding Mask
1. Insert the Clear Filter (11) into the Filter Surround (13). Place the Tinted
Filter (12) on top of the clear filter
2. Place the filter surround into the Filter Window (16) of the Welding
Mask (15) and rotate the Filter Catches (14) to secure the filter
surround
3. Attach the Welding Mask Handle (19) to the Handle Mounting (17)
using the Welding Mask Fittings (10)
Note: The clear filter acts as a splatter guard and protects the tinted filter
from damage, therefore the tinted filter must be the filter closest to the
operator’s eyes
Note: The handle fits to the inside of the welding mask enclosure, so in use
your hand is partly protected by the welding mask
Connecting the welding cables
IMPORTANT: Only connect the welding cables when the machine is not
connected to the power supply
• Each cable is fitted with a quick-connect plug. Insert the plug into the
correct socket on the welder and turn the plug clockwise to secure in
position
1. Connect the Electrode Clamp and Cable (4) to the Positive Socket (3)
2. Connect the Earth Clamp and Cable (5) to the Negative Socket (6)
NOTE: These instructions are for configuring the cables for DCEP use.
However, there are electrodes that may need to be connected to the
negative supply (DCEN) for optimum welding performance, depending on
material, material thickness or the type of weld. Check information supplied
by the electrode manufacturer regarding the type and polarity of the
electrode you are using before connecting the welding cables
Connecting to a power supply
This arc welder is supplied pre-fitted with a CEE 7/7 earthed 16A mains
plug suitable for Germany and France, and other countries that adopt the
same CEE 7/4 and 7/5 standards for mains sockets. If you do not have a
suitable socket available compatible with a CEE 7/7 plug it will need to be
replaced by a suitable plug or replacement cable with plug for your country.
Depending on legislation in your country this may require fitting by a
qualified electrician. Alternatively a converter may be available to adapt the
CEE 7/7 plug, but it must be earthed and capable of handling 16A.
Warning: This welder requires a 16A mains connection and is not suitable
for connection to a UK 13A mains socket when used at 100A. For this
reason it is not supplied with a pre-fitted UK converter plug.
Note: For UK use, consult a qualified electrician with regards to installing
a high current socket suitable for a welder that requires 16A. A suitable
16A plug (589694) and socket (571518) are available from your Silverline
stockist, however the socket must be installed by a qualified electrician. It
may be preferable to fit a 32A plug (427717) and socket (457049) to allow
your welder to be upgraded to a more powerful model at a later date.
Do not attempt to use this welder without an earth connection
Do not connect this welder to a mains socket that is not rated to 16A
Do not use an extension cable that is not capable of handling 16A, and
always fully unwind cable
Do not connect the welder mains cable directly into high current circuit
terminals. Always use a plug and socket arrangement so the welder can be
isolated when necessary
• ONLY connect this welder to a power supply capable of providing the
specified voltage
• If connecting to a generator, check the specification of the generator first
WARNING:
• Welders operate at very high current levels at maximum settings: Do not
overload your mains supply
• It may not be possible to use other high current devices at the same
time as a welder if on the same circuit (for example, cooker, microwave,
electric fire etc.)
• If it is not convenient to disconnect other devices on your mains circuit,
keep the welder at lower current settings
• At high current settings, it is possible that the welder may trip a fuse/
MCB in the fusebox/consumer unit. This is unlikely to be a fault with the
welder, but may be an indicator your mains circuit is overloaded.
• If in any doubt, consult an electrician about connecting your welder
Before Use
• Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment for the job at
hand. Use of this machine requires a welding mask, gloves, heat resistant
clothing and, if appropriate, a respirator
• Always ensure there is an appropriate fire extinguisher near to the work
area
• Always inspect your machine for damage or wear. Pay particular
attention to leads and cables. If any damage is found DO NOT USE
• Check that all casings or covers are completely closed and secured
• Position the welder to ensure that it will not move, or tip, in use. Ensure
that there is at least 500mm of clear space around the welder to allow
sufficient ventilation
• Although an arc welder is suitable for welding outside, never use a
welder in rain or any area where it may come in contact with water.
Always use extreme caution when using an arc welder outside and
disconnect from power immediately after use

Operating Instructions
Warning
• Always unplug the welding machine from the mains supply and allow to
cool completely before attempting to fit or replace any part
Setting the Machine
• The On/Off & Current Control Knob (2) switches the welder on and off and
controls the welding current
• To achieve a good quality weld the current control knob must be set
correctly (see guide to current and electrode selection for guidance)
• Turning the control knob clockwise will increase the welding current,
turning the knob anti-clockwise will reduce the welding current
Welding rod selection
• In order to produce a good quality weld, the correct type of welding rod
must be used. Welding rods are available in a variety of thicknesses and
materials, and with a range of coatings
• Refer to rod manufacturers guidelines to select the correct rod for your
requirements
Duty cycle / thermal cut out
• This machine is designed to weld constantly at 45A or below. For welding
at greater currents, refer to the duty cycle
• The duty cycle defines a percentage of time in relation to overall time that
the welder can be used for each current setting.
• If the machine is overloaded, or used beyond its duty cycle, it will
automatically cut out and the Overheating Indicator Light (7) will
illuminate
• Allow the machine to cool. The cut-out will automatically reset and the
overheating indicator light extinguish once the machine is ready for use
• Using the machine at reduced current settings and maintaining good
ventilation will maximise the duty cycle
• A duty cycle gives an approximate guide to how long you can use the
welder. As an example, if the welder indicates over-heating and stops
working at the 100A setting after 1.5 minutes of continuous use it is
possible that it requires an approximate 8.5 minute cooling period before
it can be used again, if the duty cycle is 15%. The operator should adjust
the work pattern so it doesn’t force the welder into an over-heated
condition which will maximise the lifespan of the unit. Therefore, only
operating the unit for 1 minute every 5.5 minutes may prevent the welder
going into over-heat mode and switching off
• Where possible try to avoid using the maximum amp settings where the
duty cycle is 10 or 15%, as this will stress the internal components more
than lower amp settings with higher duty cycles
Preparing to weld
• Ensure that parts to be joined are clean and free from rust, paint, or
other finishes, using the supplied hammer brush to clean the surface if
necessary
• All parts should be well supported, with a gap of approximately 1mm
where you intend to form the welded joint
• Check that there are no flammable materials in the vicinity of the work
area
• Attach the Earth Clamp (5) to a cleaned area of one of the parts, as near
as practical to where the weld will be. NEVER attach the earth clamp to
the casing of the welder
• Squeeze the Electrode Clamp (4), to open the jaws. Place an electrode
rod into the jaws and release. The electrode should be firmly gripped,
with the clamp contacting the clean metal part (not the coated part)
• Carry out a final check of the work area while reading the safety
information provided in this manual
• Connect the welder to the mains power supply
Welding
WARNING: Using a welder correctly is a technical skill. A welder used
incorrectly can be highly dangerous. The information presented below is
general guidance only. If you are not entirely confident in your ability to use
this tool safely DO NOT USE.
• Turn the Current Control Knob (2) clockwise from the OFF position to the
required current or thickness of electrode you are using, as indicated on
the scale. The green Power Indicator Light (8) will illuminate
• Hold the Electrode Clamp (4) in one hand, and the welding mask in the
other
• Position the rod at an angle of approx 60-75˚ angle from the surface or
15-30 ˚ from vertical, with the tip at approx 30mm away from the metal
• Hold the mask over your face, and tap the rod against the metal
• An arc should strike between the metal, and the tip. Try to hold the tip
of the rod a distance away from the metal equal to the rod thickness.
Maintain the arc for 1-2 seconds, then move the rod away
• Allow the weld to cool slightly, and move the mask away from your face.
If the settings were correct, a round ‘spot’ weld should have formed
• If the weld has not fully penetrated the metal, increase the current
setting. If a hole has been made in the metal, reduce the current setting
• Practice making ‘spot’ welds until you are confident using the machine,
and selecting settings
• To form a ‘seam’ weld, maintain the arc for longer, and slowly move the
rod forward at the same time. The speed at which the rod is moved is
crucial to achieving a good weld
• If the machine settings are correct, the arc should be steady, and produce
a crackling sound. Be aware that you will have to gradually move the
electrode clamp closer to the metal as the rod is used up
• Once the weld bead is complete, switch off the welder by turning the
current control knob anticlockwise to position 0 on the scale. The green
Power Indicator Light (8) will be extinguished
• Remove excess and splatters using the chipping hammer and wire brush.
Do not attempt to weld over beads unless properly cleaned
• There are lots of different techniques for using arc welders which
are beyond the scope of this manual. If you are new to welding, seek
additional advice or training for exactly how you plan to use your arc
welder. Always spend time configuring the welder to the correct current,
polarity (DCEP or DCEN) and use the appropriate size and type of
electrode/rod
• Creating neat, high quality welds is a skill that takes time to master.
Practice and good preparation will help to make satisfactory welds
Troubleshooting
Should you experience any problem with the welder please make the
following checks:-
• That the welding current is correct for the diameter and type of electrode
in use
• That the power supply is on, and the power indicator light is on. If the
power indicator light is not on there is a power supply problem (for
example a circuit breaker may have blown)
• That the correct voltage is being used as indicated on the rating plate
• That you have not exceeded the duty cycle and the thermal cut-out is
in operation
• That the cables are undamaged and that there is nothing causing a
short circuit
• That all circuit connections are correct. You should pay particular
attention to the work clamp, making sure that it is correctly attached to
the workpiece and that there is no grease, paint or other contaminate
that could cause a bad connection

Maintenance
WARNING: Always remove the plug from the mains power supply before
carrying out any maintenance/cleaning.
Cleaning
• Keep your machine clean at all times. Dirt and dust will cause internal
parts to wear quickly, shortening the machine’s service life. Clean the
body of your machine with a soft brush, or dry cloth. If available, use
clean, dry, compressed air to blow through the ventila tion holes
• If the mains cable becomes damaged or worn it must be replaced by a
qualified technician, with a cable equal or superior in current capacity to
the original fitted cable
• If the internal fuse blows, it must be replaced with a fuse of exactly
the same type and rating as originally fitted. If the replacement fuse
blows immediately, it is likely to indicate a fault condition and a service
technician should be consulted immediately
Disposal
Always adhere to national regulations when disposing of power tools that
are no longer functional and are not viable for repair.
• Do not dispose of power tools, or other waste electrical and electronic
equipment (WEEE), with household waste
• Contact your local waste disposal authority for information on the correct
way to dispose of power tools

Poste à souder à l'arc 100 A846386
Sécurité sur la zone de travail
a) Maintenir une zone de travail propre et bien éclairée. Des zones
encombrées et mal éclairées sont sources d’accidents.
b) Ne pas utiliser d’outils électriques dans des environnements
explosifs, tels qu’à proximité de liquides, de gaz ou de poussières
inflammables. Les appareils électriques produisent des étincelles
susceptibles d’enflammer la poussière ou les vapeurs présentes.
c) Eloigner les enfants et les passants pendant l’utilisation d’un
appareil électrique. Ceux-ci peuvent provoquer une perte d’attention
et faire perdre la maîtrise de l’appareil.
Sécurité électrique
a) La prise d’un appareil électrique doit être adaptée à la prise du
secteur. Ne jamais modifier la prise en aucune façon. Ne jamais
utiliser d’adaptateur sur la prise électrique d’appareil mis à la
terre. Des prises non modifiées, adaptées aux boîtiers de prise de
courant, réduiront le risque de décharge électrique.
b) Eviter le contact corporel avec les surfaces mises à la terre telles
que tuyaux, radiateurs, cuisinières et réfrigérateurs. Le risque de
décharge électrique est plus important si le corps est mis à la terre.
c) Ne pas exposer l’appareil électrique à la pluie ou à l’humidité.
L’infiltration d’eau dans un appareil électrique accroît le risque de
décharge électrique.
d) Ne pas maltraiter le cordon électrique. Ne jamais utiliser le
cordon électrique pour porter, tirer ou débrancher l’appareil.
Protéger le cordon électrique de la chaleur, du contact avec
l’essence, des bords tranchants et pièces rotatives. Un cordon
électrique endommagé ou entortillé accroît le risque de décharge
électrique.
e) Lors d’une utilisation de l’appareil électrique en extérieur, se
servir d’une rallonge appropriée à une utilisation en extérieur.
Cela réduit le risque de décharge électrique.
f) Si une utilisation de l’appareil électrique dans un environnement
humide ne peut être évitée, utiliser une alimentation protégée par
un disjoncteur différentiel. L’utilisation d’un disjoncteur différentiel
réduit le risque de décharge électrique.
Sécurité des personnes
a) Rester vigilent et faire preuve de bon sens lors de la manipulation
de l’appareil. Ne pas utiliser un appareil électrique lorsque l’on
se trouve dans un état de fatigue, ou sous l’influence de drogues,
d’alcool ou de médicaments. Un moment d’inattention pendant
l’utilisation d’un outil électrique peut se traduire par des blessures
graves.
b) Porter un équipement de protection approprié. Toujours porter
une protection oculaire. Le port de masque à poussières, chaussures
de sécurité antidérapantes, casque de sécurité et protections antibruit
adaptés aux différentes conditions de travail réduit le risque de
blessures corporelles.
c) Eviter tout démarrage accidentel. S’assurer que l’interrupteur
marche-arrêt soit en position d’arrêt avant de brancher l’appareil
sur l’alimentation secteur ou d’installer la batterie, de prendre
l’appareil ou de le transporter. Porter un appareil électrique tout en
maintenant le doigt posé sur l’interrupteur ou brancher un appareil
électrique dont l’interrupteur est sur la position de marche est source
d’accidents.
d) Enlever toute clé et tout instrument de réglage avant de mettre
l’appareil électrique en marche. Une clé ou un instrument de
réglage laissé fixé à un élément en rotation de l’appareil électrique
peut entraîner des blessures physiques.
e) Ne pas essayer d’atteindre une zone hors de portée. Se tenir
toujours en position stable permettant de conserver l’équilibre.
Cela permet de mieux contrôler l’appareil électrique dans des
situations inattendues.
f) Porter des vêtements appropriés. Ne pas porter de vêtements
amples ou des bijoux pendants. Eloigner cheveux, vêtements et
gants des pièces en mouvement. Les vêtements amples, les bijoux
pendants et cheveux longs peuvent être happés par les pièces en
rotation.
g) Si l’appareil est pourvu de dispositifs destinés au raccord
d’équipements d’extraction et de récupération de la poussière/
sciure, s’assurer qu’ils soient bien fixés et utilisés correctement
L’utilisation de ces dispositifs peut réduire les risques dus à la
poussière.
Utilisation et entretien des appareils électriques
a) Ne pas forcer sur l’appareil électrique. Utiliser l’appareil
électrique approprié au travail à effectuer. Un appareil électrique
adapté et employé au rythme pour lequel il a été conçu permettra de
réaliser un travail de meilleure qualité et dans de meilleures conditions
de sécurité.
b) Ne pas utiliser un appareil électrique dont l’interrupteur marche-
arrêt est hors service. Tout appareil électrique dont la commande
ne s’effectue plus par l’interrupteur marche-arrêt est dangereux et
doit être réparé.
c) Débrancher l’appareil électrique ou démonter sa batterie avant
d’effectuer tout réglage ou changement d’accessoire et avant
de le ranger. De telles mesures préventives réduiront les risques de
démarrage accidentel.
d) Ranger les appareils électriques inutilisés hors de portée des
enfants et ne pas permettre l’utilisation de cet appareil aux
personnes non habituées à son maniement ou n’ayant pas lu les
présentes instructions. Les appareils électriques sont dangereux
dans les mains d’utilisateurs inexpérimentés.
e) Veiller à l’entretien des appareils électriques. Vérifier que les
éléments rotatifs soient bien alignés et non grippés. S’assurer
de l’absence de pièces cassées ou endommagées susceptibles
de nuire au bon fonctionnement de l'appareil. Si l’appareil
électrique est endommagé, le faire réparer avant toute utilisation.
De nombreux accidents sont dus à l’utilisation d’appareils électriques
mal entretenus.
f) Veiller à ce que les outils de coupe soient tenus affûtés et
propres. Des outils de coupe bien entretenus, aux tranchants bien
affûtés, sont moins susceptibles de se gripper et sont plus faciles à
contrôler.
g) Utiliser l’appareil électrique, les accessoires et outils à monter
conformément à ces instructions, en tenant compte des
conditions de travail et de la tâche à réaliser. Toute utilisation d’un
appareil électrique autre que celle pour laquelle il a été conçu peut
entraîner des situations à risque.
Révision
a) Ne faire réparer votre appareil électrique que par un réparateur
qualifié utilisant uniquement des pièces de rechange identiques.
Cela permet de maintenir la sécurité d’utilisation de l’appareil
électrique.
Consignes de sécurité relatives à
la soudure
• La soudure peut produire de la fumée toxique et réduire le taux
d’oxygène présent dans la zone de travail. Travaillez toujours dans un
endroit bien ventilé. Evitez d’inhaler la fumée émise par la soudure et
portez un masque respiratoire lorsque l’activité s’y prête.
• Certaines parties métalliques peuvent être galvanisées ou revêtues
de plomb, de cadmium ou d’autres revêtements. Souder sur ces
revêtements peut produire de la fumée hautement toxique. Décapez
toujours la surface avant de procéder au soudage.
• Si vous ressentez une irritation aux poumons, à la gorge ou aux yeux
pendant le soudage, ARRETEZ-VOUS IMMEDIATEMENT et sortez à l’air
pur.
• La soudure produit des taux extrêmement élevés d’ultraviolets. Pour
éviter d’altérer votre vue, portez TOUJOURS un masque à souder agréé.
Ne regardez JAMAIS directement l’arc.
• La lumière éblouissante produite pendant le soudage est attractive à
regarder spécialement pour les enfants. Toujours empêcher les autres
personnes de regarder cette lumière sans protection oculaire.
