2.3 General
The equipment was designed and manufactured in accordance with generally
recognised technical regulations.
Nevertheless, risks of personal injury to the user or third parties or damage to the
equipment or to other material assets could arise during use.
Under no circumstances may any safety mechanisms be dismantled or taken out
of service, as this will result in exposure to danger and proper use of the
equipment is no longer guaranteed.
Dismantling of safety mechanisms during set-up, repair and maintenance is
described separately. Immediately after this work has been completed, the safety
mechanisms must be re-installed.
The operator of the equipment must ensure its safety during the use of external
agents (e.g. solvents for cleaning).
All safety and warning notices and the nameplate on the equipment must be kept
in a legible condition and must be heeded.
Safety instructions are intended to promote occupational health and safety and
prevent accidents. They must be observed.
It is important to observe not only the safety instructions listed in this chapter but
also the special safety instructions given throughout these operating instructions.
In addition to the instructions in these operating instructions, general safety and
accident prevention regulations (in Germany among others UVV VGB15 on
welding, cutting and associated processes, especially the references to arc
welding and cutting, or the appropriate national regulations) must also be
observed.
Please observe the safety notices in the operator’s workshop as well.
