SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Do not attempt to use this equipment until you have
thoroughly read all operating and maintenance man-
uals supplied with your equipment and any related
welding machine it will be used with. They include

FUMES AND GASES
can be dangerous.
• Although the removal of the particu-
late matter from welding smoke may
reduce the ventilation requirement,
concentrations of the clear exhausted
fumes and gases may still be haz-
ardous to health. Avoid breathing
concentrations of these fumes and
gases. Use adequate ventilation
when welding. See ANSI Z49.1,
"Safety in Welding and Cutting", pub-
lished by the American Welding
Society.

Only qualified personnel should operate this equip-
ment.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Always operate this equipment with the filter and arm
installed and all covers in place as these provide max-
imum protection from moving parts and insure proper
vacuum operation and cooling air flow.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Connect the Mobiflex 200-M to 120 VAC input power.
Leave the Start/Stop Switch on the Mobiflex base unit
in the “Start” position to control the Mobiflex 200-M
and Work Lamp from the Hood-mounted switch.
Refer to Figure 10:
A. Switch with Lamp Symbol - Operates Lamp.
B. Switch with 0/I- Operates Mobiflex 200-M.
For optimum fume-capture, position hood within
10-15 inches (250-400mm) of the arc.
If using the Automatic Start/Stop Arc Sensor, leave
the 0/I switch in the 0 (off) position (the Start/Stop
switch on the Mobiflex 200-M must be in the “Start”
position). When the sensor detects an arc, it will start
the Mobiflex 200-M automatically. When it no longer
detects the arc, the sensor will shut down the Mobiflex
after 20 seconds.
