Sparks fly off from the weld. • Use a Lampert welding microscope or any other Lampert or Lampert- certified eye protection system to protect your face and eyes when welding or watching (see ANSI Z49.1 and Z87.1 listed in Safety Stand- ards).
The eye protection system must be properly connected to the welding de- vice in order to function properly. Always carry out a functional test before putting the microscope into opera- tion, see page 23in chapter 5. 7/32 Issue US 2023/03 Welding microscope SMG/SMM Operating manual...
The eye protection system should always be covered after use to avoid soil- ing the oculars. During disassembly When dismantling, the connection cable plug must be unplugged from the corresponding socket on the welding device. 8/32 Issue US 2023/03 Welding microscope SMG/SMM Operating manual...
The eye protection system shall be used only when in flawless condition and is intended exclusively for work in accordance with the intended use. 9/32 Issue US 2023/03 Welding microscope SMG/SMM Operating manual...
2 General information 2.2 Intended use The unit is intended as personal protective equipment for arc welding of weldable metals and alloys with all compatible Lampert precision micro welding devices. 2.3 Foreseeable misuse • Use of the eye protection system without connecting the connection ca- ble to the device.
The result symbol describes the result or intermediate result of an ac- tion. Application tip The " " indicates additional information for easy and safe use of the ma- chine. Note on the optimal use of the machine. TIP: 11/32 Issue US 2023/03 Welding microscope SMG/SMM Operating manual...
EU 2016/425, as the micro- scope is not worn or held by the user during operation. Therefore, a CE dec- laration of conformity is not possible. Lampert has nevertheless successfully performed all required and legally possible tests and examinations of EU 2016/425 and the above mentioned norms.
The eye protection system protects your eyes from UV radiation, which in- herently originates during welding. It prevents the cornea from permanent and irreversible impairment. 13/32 Issue US 2023/03 Welding microscope SMG/SMM Operating manual...
