Safety measures
in normal opera-
tion
A device that topples over can easily kill someone. Place the device on a solid,
level surface in such a way that it remains stable
- The maximum permissible slope is 10°.
Special regulations apply in rooms at risk of fire or explosion
- observe relevant national and international requirements.
Use internal directives and checks to ensure that the workplace environment
is always clean and clearly laid out.
Only set up and operate the device in accordance with the degree of protec-
tion shown on the rating plate.
When setting up the device, ensure there is a gap of 0.5 m (1 ft. 7.69 in.) all
round so that cooling air can enter and exit unhindered.
When transporting the device, observe the relevant national and local guide-
lines and accident prevention regulations. This applies especially to guidelines
regarding the risks arising during transportation.
Before transporting the device, allow coolant to drain completely and detach
the following components:
- Wire-feed unit
- Wirespool
- Shielding gas cylinder
After transporting the device, and before commissioning, you MUST carry out
a visual inspection to check whether it has been damaged in any way. Any
damage must be repaired by trained service technicians before commission-
ing takes place.
Only operate the device when all protection devices are fully functional. If the
protection devices are not fully functional, there is a risk of
- injury or death to the operator or a third party,
- damage to the device and other material assets belonging to the operator,
- inefficient operation of the device.
