Environment With Increased Electrical Hazard - Parkside PMSG 200 A1 Operation And Safety Notes

The device must only be

operated by people over the
age of 16.
Please familiarise yourself with

the welding safety instructions.
Also refer to the safety instruc-
tions of your welding device.
Always wear a welding mask

while welding. If it is not
used, you could sustain severe
lesions to the retina.
Always wear protective cloth-

ing during welding operations.
Never use the welding mask

without the welding lens.
There is a risk of damage to
the eyes!
Regularly replace the welding

lens to ensure good visibility
and fatigue-proof work.
 Environment with
increased electrical
hazard
When welding in environments
with increased electrical hazard,
the following safety instructions
must be observed.
Environments with increased
electrical hazard may be encoun-
tered, for example:
In workplaces where the space

for movement is restricted,
such that the welder is
working in a forced posture
(e.g.: kneeling, sitting, lying)
and is touching electrically
conductive parts;
In workplaces which are

restricted completely or in part
in terms of electrical conductiv-
ity and where there is a high
risk through avoidable or acci-
dental touching by the welder;
In wet, humid or hot work-

places where the air humidity
or weld signifi cantly reduces
the resistance of human skin
and the insulating properties
or effect of protective equip-
ment.
Even a metal conductor or scaf-
folding can create an environ-
ment with increased electrical
hazard.
In this type of environment, insu-
lated mats and pads must be
used. Furthermore gauntlet gloves
and head protection made of
leather or other insulating mate-
rials must be worn to insulate the
body against Earth. The welding
power source must be located
outside the working area or
