Safety measures
in normal opera-
tion
A device toppling over could easily kill someone. Place the device on a solid,
level surface such that it remains stable
-
The maximum permissible tilt angle is 10°.
Special regulations apply in rooms at risk of fire or explosion
-
Observe relevant national and international regulations.
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 an all-round clearance of 0.5 m (1
ft. 7.69 in.) to ensure that cooling air can flow in and out freely.
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 transport.
Do not lift or transport operational devices. Switch off devices before transport
or lifting.
Before transporting the device, allow coolant to drain completely and detach
the following components:
-
Wirefeeder
-
Wirespool
-
Shielding gas cylinder
After transporting the device, the device must be visually inspected for dam-
age before commissioning. Any damage must be repaired by trained service
technicians before commissioning the device.
Only operate the device if all safety devices are fully functional. If the safety
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.
Any safety devices that are not functioning properly must be repaired before
switching on the device.
Never bypass or disable safety devices.
Before switching on the device, ensure that no one is likely to be endangered.
Check the device at least once a week for obvious damage and proper func-
tioning of safety devices.
Always fasten the shielding gas cylinder securely and remove it beforehand if
the device is to be transported by crane.
Only the manufacturer's original coolant is suitable for use with our devices
due to its properties (electrical conductibility, anti-freeze agent, material com-
patibility, flammability, etc.).
Only use suitable original coolant from the manufacturer.
Do not mix the manufacturer's original coolant with other coolants.
The manufacturer accepts no liability for damage resulting from use of a dif-
ferent coolant. In addition, all warranty claims will be forfeited.
The coolant can ignite under certain conditions. Transport the coolant only in
its original, sealed containers and keep well away from any sources of ignition.
