If used incorrectly or misused, however, it can cause: injury or death to the operator or a third party, damage to the device and other material assets belonging to the operat- ing company, inefficient operation of the device.
Environmental Operation or storage of the device outside the stipulated area will be deemed conditions as not in accordance with the intended purpose. The manufacturer shall not be held liable for any damage arising from such usage. Ambient temperature range: during operation: -10 °C to + 40 °C (14 °F to 104 °F) during transport and storage: -20 °C to +55 °C (-4 °F to 131 °F) Relative humidity:...
Protecting your- When welding, you expose yourself to numerous dangers. In addition to these self and others operating instructions, the safety instructions of the manufacturer of the entire welding system must also be observed. Keep all persons, especially children, out of the working area while any devic- es are in operation or welding is in progress.
EMF measures Electromagnetic fields may pose as yet unknown risks to health: effects on the health of others in the vicinity, e.g. wearers of pacemakers and hearing aids wearers of pacemakers must seek advice from their doctor before ap- proaching the device or any welding that is in progress for safety reasons, keep distances between the welding cables and the welder's head/torso as large as possible do not carry welding cables and hosepacks over the shoulders or wind...

General Device concept Robacta TX is an automatic torch body ch- angeover system, comprising: Torch body changeover station Torch body coupling Robacta TX torch body With Robacta TX, robots are used to auto- matically place worn torch bodies onto the torch body changeover station and replace them with new torch bodies.
To operate the torch body changeover station, the following system components are also tem components needed in addition to the welding system: Robacta TX W torch body changeover station TX W tool kit Torch body coupling Robacta TX W torch body...
NOTE! The locking balls (1) are intended for dry operation. Do not lubricate the locking balls. Torch body coupling Robacta TX W torch body Wire cutter Contact tip rec- NOTE! In conjunction with the torch body changeover system, we recommend ommendation that you use the 'CB' contact tip.
The device is intended solely for changing Fronius torch bodies. The device is intended solely for use in conjunction with Fronius system components. This applies to the cooling units and coolant in particular - only use the device in conjunction with Fronius cooling units and Fronius coolant.
The device is fitted with safety symbols and a rating plate. The safety symbols and rating on the device plate must not be removed or painted over. The symbols warn against operating the equip- ment incorrectly, as this may result in serious injury and damage. Model No. Robacta TX W Art.No. 4,044,008 Ser.No. www.fronius.com...
