Exceptional or emergency situations
Contact with special materials
Note the safety datasheets of the manufacturer when you handle colors, solvents or special
substances. Such substances must be stored in accordance with applicable ordinances
(Operational Facility Ordinance). Note the local wastewater regulations.
Electrostatic discharges
During cutting, the high flow rate of water and abrasive could cause electrostatic charging.
Discharges could lead to the ignition of flammable substances, dust, or gases. Ground all
components so that static electricity does not form a spark.
The machine comes with the appropriate grounding cables. If the cables are defective, replace
them immediately.
Emissions
Always pay attention to the data sheets of the material being cut! Although rare, flammable gases
could develop in the water if you cut materials (such as aluminum) that lead to aggressive oxide
formation. Work in a well-ventilated area to minimize exposure to vapors that could occur.
To avoid deflagrations, lower the water level in the catcher tank until the water is under the
bottom of the material.
Explosions
Do not operate the machine in areas that are vulnerable to explosions.
If you weld, do flame cutting, or use an angle grinder in close proximity to the machine, clean the
surrounding area and remove flammable materials. Under certain conditions, material dust can
lead to deflagration or explosion.
