SAFETY

Please read this manual carefully before operating the equipment. This device
should be used only by qualified personnel. Safe operation is only possible with
understanding the possible risks for health and correct operation of the device.
Nuriş Teknoloji is not responsible for any injury, death, or malfunction of the
device due to the improper use or lack of understanding for the identified risks.
ELECTRIC SHOCK CAN KILL: Arc welding machines can generate high voltages
during the operation. Do not touch the live parts such as electrode clamp, work
clamp or electrode. Always use the insulated part of the electrode clamp. Wear
protective insulating gloves to prevent risk of electric shock. Do not touch any
damaged cables.
FUMES AND GASES CAN BE DANGEROUS: Welding may produce fumes and
gases hazardous to health. Avoid breathing these fumes and gases. To avoid
these dangers, the operator must use enough ventilation or exhaust to keep
fumes and gases away from the breathing zone.
ARC RAYS CAN BURN: Use a shield with the proper filter and cover plates to
protect your eyes from sparks and the rays of the arc when welding or
observing. Use suitable clothing made from durable flame-resistant material to
protect you skin and that of your helpers. Protect other nearby personnel with
suitable, non-flammable screening and warn them not to watch the arc nor
expose themselves to the arc.
WELDING SPARKS CAN CAUSE FIRE OR EXPLOSION: Remove fire hazards from
the welding area and have a fire extinguisher readily available. Welding sparks
and hot materials from the welding process can easily go through small cracks
and openings to adjacent areas. Do not weld on any tanks, drums, containers,
or material until the proper steps have been taken to ensure that no flammable
or toxic vapors will be present.
ELECTRIC AND MAGNETIC FIELDS MAY BE DANGEROUS:
flowing through any conductor creates electric and magnetic fields (EMF). EMF
fields may interfere with some pacemakers, and welders having a pacemaker
should consult their physician before operating this equipment.
WELDED MATERIALS CAN BURN: Welding generates a large amount of heat.
Hot surfaces and materials in work area can cause serious burns. Use gloves
and pliers when touching or moving materials in the work area.
