General Precautions & Safety Suggestions

Water-Cooler Specific Hazards

Inspect input power cord for damage or exposed wiring. If you detect dam-

age or exposed wiring, replace cord promptly. Exposed wiring can cause

electric shock, which results in serious injury or even death.

Maintain a dry working environment—protect all cords from water, oil,

and grease.

In order to reduce the risk of cord damage and electric shock, protect all

cords from hot metal and sparks.

When not operating equipment, disengage power—turn equipment off or

unplug equipment.

Do not operate equipment with damaged parts. Rather, repair or replace

damaged parts immediately.

Do not operate equipment without all protective panels and covers in

place. In fact, do not ever remove panels with equipment on and/or con-

nected to a power supply.

Risk of Electric Shock

Avoid touching live electrical parts—live electrical parts can cause electric

shock, which results in serious injury, such as severe burns, or even death.

Be sure to properly ground all equipment.

When you power the equipment on, all circuits—including the input power

circuit and equipment internal circuits—become live.

Turn equipment off and disconnect from the power source before servic-

ing.

HTP America values your safety, as well as the safety of those around you. Please read, follow, and

save the following safety precautions and operating instructions in order to maintain a safe work

environment and to ensure proper handling of all equipment.

On Reading the Owner’s Manual and Operating Instructions

Thoroughly read the Owner’s Manual and Operating Instructions before installing, operating,

or servicing equipment.

General Precautions & Safety Suggestions Cont.

Hot Parts

Avoid touching hot parts with bare skin—hot parts can cause burns.

Always allow equipment to cool before servicing.

Wear protective clothing and insulated welding gloves, or use proper tools,

if you find handling hot parts necessary.

Moving Parts

Use caution when working near moving parts—moving parts can cause

injury.

To avoid injury from moving parts, only operate equipment with panels

and covers securely in place.

Danger of Debris Entering the Eyes

Always wear safety glasses or goggles, along with a welding helmet, when

cutting and/or welding.

Danger of Falling Equipment

Falling equipment can cause injury—properly secure all equipment and

equipment cables when working in an elevated location or when moving

equipment via forklift, truck, etc.

On Overuse and Overheating

Always follow rated duty cycle of equipment and allow sufficient periods of

cooling.

Ensure adequate airflow to all equipment to avoid overheating.

Operating Instructions

1. Confirm the input voltage necessary for equipment operation. To confirm the input voltage

required for equipment operation, please refer to the Specifications Table on the front panel of

your water-cooler (See Front Panel Connections and Controls diagram on Page 7). Operating

the water-cooler on the incorrect input voltage can damage your equipment.

2. Connect the red line from your water-cooled Tig welding torch to the Hot Water In connection

located on the front panel of the water-cooler. If your torch is not color coded, you want the

water return line or, in other words, the power cable.

3. Connect the blue line from your water-cooled Tig welding torch to the Cool Water Out connec-

tion located on the front panel of the water cooler. If your torch is not color coded, you want

the water supply line.

4. Check the coolant reservoir to confirm that you filled the reservoir with the correct amount of

coolant. Important: You must use a coolant specifically designed for welding applications.

Automotive anti-freeze will ruin the pump and void your warranty

5. Connect the water-cooler to the appropriate power supply, i.e., to a 110V outlet, a 220V outlet,

or to the power connector at the back of your Invertig 200, 201, or 221 welder.

6. Power all equipment on.

7. Arm the flow alarm (the flow alarm alerts you to liquid flow restrictions within the Cool Water

Out or Hot Water In lines).

Remember to inspect your water-cooler and all water-cooler components regularly to en-

sure ease of operation and to maintain safety. HTP recommends annual coolant changes

and prompt maintenance when necessary.
