  • Page 7: Safety Rules

    Safety rules Explanation of DANGER! indicates immediate and real danger. If it is not avoided, death or se- safety symbols rious injury will result. WARNING! indicates a potentially dangerous situation. Death or serious injury may result if appropriate precautions are not taken. CAUTION! indicates a situation where damage or injury could occur.
  • Page 8: Proper Use

    Proper use The device is to be used exclusively for its intended purpose. The device is intended for the welding process described on the rating plate only. Any use above and beyond this purpose is deemed improper. The manufac- turer shall not be liable for any damage resulting from such improper use. Utilisation in accordance with proper use also comprises carefully reading and following all the instructions given in the operating instructions...
  • Page 9: Obligations Of Personnel

    Obligations of Before using the device, all persons instructed to do so undertake: personnel to observe the basic instructions regarding safety at work and accident prevention to read these operating instructions, especially the "Safety rules" section and sign to confirm that they have understood them and will follow them. Before leaving the work area, ensure that people or property cannot come to any harm in your absence.
  • Page 10: Danger From Flying Sparks

    If there is any doubt about whether the extraction system is powerful enough, then the measured toxic emission values should be compared with the permis- sible limit values. The following components are responsible, amongst other things, for the de- gree of toxicity of welding fumes: Metals used for the workpiece Coating of the process tapes Coatings of the materials...
  • Page 11: Meandering Welding Flows

    Arrange for the mains and device supply to be checked regularly by a qualified electrician to ensure the PE conductor is functioning properly. The device must only be operated on a mains supply with a PE conductor and a socket with an earth contact. If the device is operated on a mains without a PE conductor and in a socket without an earth contact, this will be deemed gross negligence.
  • Page 12: Specific Hazards

    Supporting measures for avoidance of EMC problems: mains supply if electromagnetic interference arises despite correct mains connec- tion, additional measures are necessary (e.g. use of a suitable line filter). welding leads must be kept as short as possible must run close together (to avoid EMF problems) must be kept well apart from other leads Equipotential bonding Earthing the workpiece...
  • Page 13: Safety Measures At The Installation Location And During Transport

    Danger of crushing Do not place hands or other body parts between the welding electrodes. Risk of cutting! Wear safety gloves when handling sharp objects. Covers and side panels may only be opened/removed while maintenance or repair work is being carried out. During operation: ensure that all covers are closed and all side panels are fitted properly.
  • Page 14: Safety Measures In Normal Operation

    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 (1.6 ft.) so that cooling air can flow in and out unhindered.
  • Page 15: Safety Inspections

    Safety inspec- The manufacturer recommends that a safety inspection of the device is per- tions formed at least once every 12 months. A safety inspection should be carried out by a qualified electrician after any changes are made after any additional parts are installed, or after any conversions after repair, care and maintenance has been carried out at least every twelve months.
