Points to be observed when welding
n Grind off rust and paint from the area that is to be welded and carefully prepare the
joint.
n Weld in a dry area.
n Connect the welding ground cable to a clean surface as close as possible to the weld-
ing area. Avoid welding close to bearings and bushes. If these cannot be removed,
connect ground cables on both sides of the weld.
n Alterations and reinforcements must not be made without previous consultation with
Atlas Copco.
n DO NOT weld the hydraulic oil tank, valve block, compressed air tank, pressure lines
or the engine exhaust cleaning unit (CEM).
n See separate instructions for diesel engines for work on the exhaust cleaners soot
sensors.
n Welding on the exhaust cleaning unit frame and bracket is prohibited.
n Always keep a fire extinguisher for oil fires near at hand during all types of welding,
cutting and grinding. Screen off the work area from flammable materials.
n Always protect hoses, cables and electric components.
n Grind off spatter after welding. If possible, also grind the surface of the weld smooth
and treat it with anti-corrosion paint.
