Page: 84 / 108

CAUTION!

Risk of injury and property damage due to protruding wire electrodes.

During work:

► position the welding torch so that the tip of the welding torch points away from the face

and body

► use suitable protective goggles

► do not point the welding torch at people

► ensure that the wire electrodes do not touch any electrically conductive or grounded

parts (housing, etc.)

Set the appropriate stick out for the application
