DANGER
Danger of explosion!
Gas mixtures with oxygen proportions over 21% are explosive.
A gas mixture with an oxygen proportion over 21 % can cause an
explosion and fire if it comes in contact with heat, oil or grease.
¾ Do NOT use a gas mixture with an oxygen proportion of over
21%.
DANGER
Risk of death!
During the packing process, inert gases are released.
Inhaling inert gas can impair your breathing. Over a longer period of
time, this can be fatal.
¾ A surface area of at least 40 square meters per machine must
be made available.
¾ Air the rooms sufficiently and avoid any accumulation of gas.
¾ Observe the maximum input pressure, see 'Technical specifica-
tions'.
¾ Cut off the gas supply at the end of work.
¾ Adhere to the safety regulations in effect in the country where
the machine is used.
¾ Connect the inert gas (only for machines with inert gas connec-
tion).
¾ Close the stop-cock for the gas supply.
¾ Attach the gas hose to the inert gas connection of the machine.
¾ Fasten the hose with hose clamps.
¾ Open the stop-cock for the gas supply.
¾ Set the input pressure; see Technical Specifications.
¾ Check the mains voltage on the type plate and compare it with the
voltage of the mains electricity.
¾ If the values match, connect the machine to the mains electricity
at a place which is always easily accessible.
¾ Remove all the protective film.
¾ Clean the machine, see Section 6 "CLEANING".
