Special regulations apply in areas where there is a risk of fire or explosion
– observe relevant national and international regulations.
Power sources for work in spaces where electrical hazards pose a greater risk (e.g. the
boiler room) must be marked with a (Safety) sign. The power source should not be loc-
ated in these types of spaces, however.
Risk of scalding due to coolant leakage. Before disconnecting connections for the
coolant supply hose or return connection, switch off the cooling unit.
When handling coolants, observe the specifications on the safety data sheet. The
coolant safety data sheet is available from your service center or from the manufacturer's
homepage.
Only use suitable load-carrying equipment from the manufacturer for transporting
devices by crane.

Always use a suitable wirefeeder hoisting attachment with insulation on the crane for
hoisting the wirefeeder (MIG/MAG and TIG devices).
If the device is fitted with a carrier belt or handle, this should be used exclusively for
transportation by hand. The carrier belt is not suitable for transportation by crane, coun-
terbalanced lift truck or other mechanical chain hoists.
All lifting equipment (belts, straps, chains, etc.) used in connection with the device or its
components must be checked regularly (e.g., for mechanical damage, corrosion, or
changes due to other environmental influences).
The test interval and scope must, as a minimum, comply with the respective valid
national standards and guidelines.
There is a risk of colorless, odorless shielding gas escaping without notice if an adapter
is used for the shielding gas connection. Use suitable Teflon tape to seal the thread of
the shielding gas connection adapter on the device side before installation.
