C 08 Order No. BA 92-20-262 Issue 01.03.08 15
Secure the following safety symbols in the area of welding place:
THREAT TO LIFE to persons fitted with a pace maker
Strong electro-magnetic fields occur in the vicinity of the stud
welding unit during welding. Such fields may affect the proper
function of a pace maker. Thus persons equipped with a pace
maker must not operate the stud welding unit and must not stay in
its vicinity during welding.
During the actual welding process, you must expect red-hot
welding spatters, possibly liquid spatters, a flash, and a loud bang
> 90 dB (A). Alert any colleagues who are occupied in the vicinity of
the welder.
Wear your personal protective equipment according to actual
standards (see appendix).
3.2 Connecting the Welding Gun to the Power Unit
Switch off the power unit. In this way, you avoid any risk of
electrical shock.
Plug the welding cable of the welding gun into the socket of the power unit.
Press-in the plug and twist firmly clockwise.
The connection is not secured against working itself loose!
Check the plug connections regularly to ensure that they are
properly locked. In case of loose connection, heat may build
up in the plug and may destroy the entire plug connection.
