- Shield the entire welding installation
EMF measures Electromagnetic fields may pose as yet unknown risks to health:
- Effects on the health of persons in the vicinity, e.g. those with pacemakers
and hearing aids
- Individuals with pacemakers must seek advice from their doctor before ap-
proaching the device or any welding that is in progress
- For safety reasons, maintain as large a distance as possible between the
welding power-leads and the head/torso of the welder
- Do not carry welding power-leads and hosepacks over the shoulders or wind
them around any part of the body
Specific hazards
Keep hands, hair, clothing and tools away from moving parts. For example:
- Fans
- Cogs
- Rollers
- Shafts
- Wirespools and welding wires
Do not reach into the rotating cogs of the wire drive or into rotating drive com-
ponents.
Covers and side panels may only be opened / removed while maintenance or re-
pair work is being carried out.
During operation

The welding wire emerging from the wire speed measuring system poses a high
risk of injury (piercing of the hand, injuries to the face and eyes, etc.).
For this reason, always keep the wire speed measuring system away from the
head and body and wear suitable protective goggles.
Special provisions apply in areas at risk of fire or explosion
- observe relevant national and international regulations.
Power sources for work in areas with increased electric risk (e.g. near boilers)
must carry the "Safety" sign. However, the power source must not be located in
such areas.
Use only suitable load-carrying equipment supplied by the manufacturer when
transporting devices by crane.
- Hook chains or ropes onto all suspension points provided on the load-carry-
ing equipment.
- Chains and ropes must be at the smallest angle possible to the vertical.
- Remove gas cylinder and wirefeeder (MIG/MAG and TIG devices).
If the device has a carrying strap or handle, this is intended solely for carrying by
hand. The carrying strap is not to be used if transporting with a crane, counter-
balanced lift truck or other mechanical hoist.
All lifting accessories (straps, handles, chains, etc.) used in connection with the
device or its components must be tested regularly (e.g. for mechanical damage,
