DANGER FROM ARC BEAMS:
Arc beams can damage your eyes and injure your skin. Wear a
„
hat and safety goggles. Wear hearing protection and high, closed
shirt collars. Wear welding safety helmets and make sure you use
the appropriate filter settings. Wear complete body protection.
DANGER FROM ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELDS:
Welding current generates electromagnetic fields. Do not use if you
„
have a medical implant. Never wrap the welding cable around
your body. Guide welding cables together.
z Welding mask-specific safety instructions
With the help of a bright light source (e.g. lighter) always check
„
the proper functioning of the welding mask prior to starting with
any welding work.
Weld spatters can damage the protective screen.
„
Immediately replace damaged or scratched protective screens.
Immediately replace damaged or highly contaminated or splattered
„
components.
The device must only be operated by people aged 16 or over.
„
Please familiarise yourself with the welding safety instructions.
„
Also refer to the safety instructions of your welder.
Always wear a welding mask while welding. If you do not do this,
„
you could sustain severe lesions to the retina.
Always wear protective clothing during welding operations.
„
Never use the welding mask without the protective screen.
„
Regularly replace the protective screen to ensure good visibility
„
and fatigue-proof work.
z Environment with increased electrical hazard
When welding in environments with increased electrical hazard, the
following safety instructions must be observed.
Environments with increased electrical hazard may be encountered,
for example:
In workplaces where the space for movement is restricted, such
„
that the welder is working in a forced posture (e.g.: kneeling,
sitting, lying) and is touching electrically conductive parts;
In workplaces which are restricted completely or in part in terms
„
of electrical conductivity and where there is a high risk through
avoidable or accidental touching by the welder;
