Kemppi KEMPARC COOL 10 Operating Manual page 7

• Ensure cables or welding torches are not squashed by heavy objects and
that they are not exposed to sharp edges or a hot work piece.
• Make sure that faulty and damaged welding torches are changed
immediately as they can be lethal and may cause electrocution or fire.
• Remember that the cable, plugs and other electric devices may be
installed or replaced only by an electrical contractor or engineer
authorised to perform such operations.
• Turn off the welding machine when it is not in use.
Welding power circuit
• Insulate yourself from the welding circuit by using dry and undamaged
protective clothing.
• Never touch the work piece and welding rod, welding wire, welding
electrode or contact tip at the same time.
• Do not put the welding torch or ground cable on the welding machine
or other electric equipment.
Welding fumes
• Ensure proper ventilation and avoid inhaling the fumes.
• Ensure sufficient supply of fresh air, particularly in closed spaces. You can
also ensure the supply of clean and sufficient breathing air by using a
fresh-air mask.
• Take extra precautions when working on metals or surface-treated
materials containing lead, cadmium, zinc, mercury or beryllium.
transportation, lifting and suspension
• Never pull or lift the machine by the welding torch or other cables.
Always use the lift points or handles designed for that purpose.
• Only use a transport unit designed for the equipment.
• Try to transport the machine in an upright position, if possible.
• Never lift a gas cylinder and the welding machine at the same time.
There are separate provisions for gas cylinder transportation.
• Never use a welding machine when suspended unless the suspension
device has been designed and approved for that particular purpose.
• Do not exceed the maximum allowed load of suspension beams or the
transportation trolley of welding equipment.
• It is recommended that the wire coil be removed during lifting or
transportation.
