Adapting the Additional Extraction System

Safety

WARNING!

Work performed incorrectly can cause serious injury and damage to property.

▶

This setting work must only be carried out by trained and qualified personnel.

▶

Observe the safety rules in the OI, in particular the "Safety Inspection" section.

Adapting the
Additional
Extraction Sys-
tem

To make components more accessible, the position of the additional extraction system
can be adapted to the existing available space.

NOTE!

The additional extraction system is factory-set for the LaserHybrid welding pro-
cess.

Every change in position of the additional extraction system can affect the extraction per-
formance.

NOTE!

When adapting the position of the addi-
tional extraction system, ensure that
the gas shield remains intact and that
no shielding gas is extracted from the
welding area.
