1.2 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WELDING AND ARC CUTTING CAN BE HARMFUL TO YOURSELF AND
OTHERS. The user must therefore be educated against the hazards, summarized
below, deriving from welding operations.
GB
1.3 THERMAL LIMITS (EN 60974-1)
a) The use of a cutting equipment is normally not continuous, since there are actual
work periods (cutting time) and pause periods (positioning work pieces etc.).
This cutting unit has been manufactured to supply the maximum nominal current
I2 in complete safety for a working time of ED% of the total time. The standards in
force, state a work period of 10 minutes. The maximum duty cycle is the ED of the
data check. If you exceed the recommended work/pause periods, you will cause
overheating of the machine components that could put it out of order.
A thermal protection device is then activated, shown by the turning on of LED lo-
cated on the front Panel.
After a few minutes this device automatically turns on the machine, the LED goes
off and the machine is ready for use again.
b) These machine is built according to IP 21 CS protection standards.
ELECTRIC SHOCK – May be fatal.
Install and earth the welding machine according to the applicable regu-
lations. Do not touch live electrical parts or eletrodes with bare skin,
gloves or wet clothing. Isolate yourselves from both the earth and the
workpiece. Make sure your working position is safe.
FUME AND GASES – May be hazardous to your health.
Keep your head away from fumes.
Work in the presence of adequate ventilation, and use ventilators
around the arc to prevent gases from forming in the work area.
ARC RAYS – May injure the eyes and burn the skin.
Protect yuor eyes with welding masks fitted with filtered lenses, and
protect your body with appropiate safety garments.
Protect others by installing adequate shields or curtains.
RISK OF FIRE AND BURNS
Sparks (sprays) may cause fires and burn the skin; you should
therefore make sure there are no flammable materials in the area, and
wear appropriate protective garments.
NOISE
This machine does not directly produce noise exceeding 80dB. The
plasma cutting/welding procedure may produce noise levels beyond
said limit; users must therefore implement all precautions required by law.
PACEMAKERS
The magnetic fields created by high currents may affect the operation of pace-
makers. Wearers of vital electronic equipment (pacemakers) should consult
their physician before beginning any arc welding, cutting, gouging or
spotwelding operations.
EXPLOSIONS
Do not cut in the vicinity of containers under pressure, or in the
presence of explosive dust, gases or fumes. All cylinders and pressu-
re regulators used in cutting operation should be handled with care.
PLASMA ARC can injure.
Keep your body away from nozzle and pla-
sma arc. Operate the pilot arc with caution.
The pilot arc is capable of burning the ope-
rator, others even piecing safety clothing.
