3 General safety instructions
•
The Wöhler BC 600 must be used only by
skilled personnel exclusively for the purpose
for which it was designed.
•
Prevent children gaining access to the device
at all times.
3.1 Setup and installation
•
Always visually inspect the device before
using. In particular, the housing, cables and
tubes must not exhibit any signs of damage.
Ensure also that no moisture has ingressed
the blower fan.
•
Make sure the device is stable; use the envis-
aged mounting options where required.
•
Make sure the ventilation slots are open and
remain free of dust to allow the device to be
sufficiently cooled.
•
When connecting the blower fan use only
cables with a grounding connection. Make
sure the conductor cross-sections of any re-
quired extension lead are sufficiently dimen-
sioned.
•
Extinguish any open fires in the test area.
•
When not securely installed the fan must only
be operated at low speeds to prevent the de-
vice tipping over.

•
Wear hearing protectors when the fan is oper-
ating at high speeds.
•
It is strictly forbidden to operate the device in
wet or damp environments.
•
Listen to the noise the blower fan makes when
starting up. Power down the blower fan at the
main switch and disconnect the power plug if
you hear any unusual noises.
•
People must maintain a safe distance to the
blower fan unit when it is in operation.
Do not under any circumstances insert your
fingers or objects through the fan grilles.
