Safety inspection

If the shielding gas cylinder is not connected, leave the valve cap in place on
the cylinder.
The manufacturer's instructions must be observed as well as applicable na-
tional and international regulations for shielding gas cylinders and accesso-
ries.
A toppling device can cause life-threatening injuries. Place the device on a sol-
id, level surface so that it remains stable
- The maximum permissible tilt angle is 10°.
Do not operate or store the device in a potentially explosive atmosphere.
Special regulations apply in rooms at risk of fire or explosion.
Observe relevant national and international regulations.
Use internal directives and checks to ensure that the workplace environment
is always clean and clearly laid out.
Only set up and operate the device in accordance with the degree of protec-
tion shown on the rating plate.
When setting up the device, ensure there is an all-round clearance of 0.5 m (1
ft. 7.69 in.) to ensure that cooling air can flow in and out freely.
When transporting the device, observe the relevant national and local guide-
lines and accident prevention regulations. This applies especially to guidelines
regarding the risks arising during transport.
After transporting the device, it must be visually inspected for damage before
commissioning. Any damage must be repaired by trained service technicians
before commissioning the device.
Odourless and colourless shielding gas may escape unnoticed if an adapter
is used for the shielding gas connection. Prior to assembly, seal the device-
side thread of the adapter for the shielding gas connection using suitable Tef-
lon tape.
Only operate the device if all safety devices are fully functional. If the safety
devices are not fully functional, there is a risk of
- injury or death to the operator or a third party,
- damage to the device and other material assets belonging to the operator,
- inefficient operation of the device.
Any safety devices that are not functioning properly must be repaired before
switching on the device.
Never bypass or disable safety devices.
Before switching on the device, ensure that no one is likely to be endangered.
Check the device at least once a week for obvious damage and proper func-
tioning of safety devices.
The manufacturer recommends that a safety inspection of the device is per-
formed at least once every 12 months.
The manufacturer recommends that the power source be calibrated during the
same 12-month period.
