Contact with the hose bundle nozzle and the material
being processed may cause burns. Special welding
gloves to be worn at all times.
Let the hose bundle nozzle and the material being
processed cool down after being operated.
Long-term working with the appliance may damage
hearing. Hearing protection to be used at all times.
welder may only be used on a flat surface and with a
properly secured gas bottle.
Make sure the welding smoke is exhausted or the
place of welding ventilated well.
Hot slag and sparks may cause fire or explosion. Never
use the appliance in a flammable environment.
wood, sawdust, „varnishes", petrol, kerosine, natural
gas, acetylene, propane and similar flammable
materials must be removed from the place of work
and the surrounding area or protected against sparks
flying away.
To extinguish fire, a suitable fire extinguisher must be
made ready nearby.
No welding or cutting on closed vessels and pipes.
No welding or cutting on vessels and pipes if they
are open, containing materials able to explode due
to heat or moisture or able to cause other dangerous
reactions.
Never use the welder to defrost frozen pipes.
The gas bottle must necessarily be secured against
falling.The welder must never be lifted together
with the gas bottle. Special regulations apply to the
transport of gas bottles.
Handling of gas bottles.
Make sure the gas bottles are used and stored in
rooms with sufficient air inlet and outlet.
A leaking gas bottle may reduce the share of oxygen
in the inhaled air and therefore represent a risk of
suffocation.

designed for the work being done.
Gas bottles must always be safely fixed in a vertical
position on a wall support or on a specially manufac-
