Training of the operators1. 4. 1.
Behind the power source, close to the Power On
switch, this label states that it is advisable to read
the instruction manual.
An instruction manual is delivered to the client. A
copy (all rights reserved) of this manual MUST be
given to the user personnel: operators, setters,
servicing personnel, etc. They must have appropriate
qualifi cation for the tasks they have to do, in accord-
ance with the rules for new employees governed by
the Labour Code.
Access for maintenance and 1. 4. 2.
adjustments
Access to the upper parts of the equipment for adjust-
ment or servicing of units which are out of reach
of the operator must be undertaken using a stable
method, such as a ladder or stepladder, in accord-
ance with current safety standards.
It is strictly forbidden to climb up the equipment by
supporting oneself on pipework, a desk, a console or
bracket for the cycle control buttons, etc.
Ergonomics1. 4. 3.
Signs
Elements used for the signalisation, especially safety-
relevant parts (e.g. colours of push-buttons and
indicator lights — refer to NF X 08 003, NF EN 60073,
NF EN 894-1, ISO 369)) must not be modifi ed in any
circumstances (inversion of the colours). Indicator
lights or buttons with whose colours become indis-
cernible due to aging or wear MUST be replaced.
Adequate illumination of work areas
Generally, welding equipment does not require the
use of spot lights, but rather a medium surrounding
level of illumination. The user must take all necessary
measures to ensure that the workshop is equipped
with suitable lighting (avoiding shadow areas and
glare) so that the operators do not suffer from exces-
sive tiredness or inconvenience.
Protection in the event of breakdown or failure 1. 4. 4.
of the equipment
During operations other than welding, personnel
must protect themselves by operating the isolation
device appropriate for the operation they have to
perform.
