Il reste une TENSION DC NON NÉGLIGEABLE dans les sources de soudage onduleur quand on a coupé l’alimentation. D Arrêter les convertisseurs, débrancher le courant électrique et décharger les condensateurs d’alimentation selon les instructions indiquées dans la partie Entretien avant de toucher les pièces. DES PIÈCES CHAUDES peuvent provoquer des brûlures graves.
ACCUMULATIONS risquent de provoquer des blessures ou même la mort. D Fermer l’alimentation du gaz protecteur en cas de non-utilisation. D Veiller toujours à bien aérer les espaces confi- nés ou se servir d’un respirateur d’adduction d’air homologué. LES CHAMPS MAGNETIQUES peuv- ent affecter des implants médicaux.
LES FILS DE SOUDAGE peuvent provoquer des blessures. D Ne pas appuyer sur la gâchette avant d’en avoir reçu l’instruction. D Ne pas diriger le pistolet vers soi, d’autres per- sonnes ou toute pièce mécanique en enga- geant le fil de soudage. DES ORGANES MOBILES peuvent provoquer des blessures.
