Danger from
cutting medium
Never touch the workpiece or tip of the cutting torch during or after cutting -
risk of burns.
Slag can sometimes fly off workpieces as they cool down. The specified
protective equipment must therefore also be worn when reworking workpi-
eces, and steps must be taken to ensure that other people are also adequa-
tely protected.
Cutting torches and other parts with a high operating temperature must be
allowed to cool down before handling.
Special provisions apply in areas at risk of fire or explosion - observe rele-
vant national and international regulations.
Power sources that are to be used in rooms/areas with increased electric risk
(e.g. near boilers) must carry the Safety sign. However, the power source
must not be located in such areas.
Use only suitable load-carrying equipment supplied by the manufacturer
when transporting devices by crane.
If the device has a carrying strap or handle, this is intended solely for car-
rying the device by hand. The carrying strap is not to be used if transporting
with a crane, fork-lift or other mechanical hoist.
Cartridge containing cutting medium is under pressure and may burst if
damaged. Protect cartridge from direct sunlight, temperatures above 50°C,
mechanical impact, naked flames, sparks and arcs.
Never use any cutting medium unless it is in good condition and suitable for
the application in question.
A flammable gas/air mixture may develop during use.
Only use in well-ventilated areas, and never inhale an aerosol spray.
If the fluid gets into the eyes, rinse with copious amounts of water and seek
medical attention if necessary. If swallowed, call a doctor immediately and
show him/her the packaging or label.
Do not use force to open the
it, even when it is empty. Keep the cartridge in a well-ventilated place and out
of the reach of children. Leave the protective cap on the cartridge when
storing it.
Do not dispose of the cartridge with domestic rubbish, and do not allow
cutting medium to enter the waste water/sewage system. Full or part-full
cartridges should only be disposed of as special waste. Only recycle comple-
tely empty and depressurised cartridges.
The manufacturer's instructions must be observed as well as applicable
national and international regulations. A safety data sheet may be obtained
from your service centre or downloaded from the manufacturer's website.
