Always read the Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) that should be
supplied with the material you are using. These MSDSs will give you the
information regarding the kind and amount of fumes and gases that may
be dangerous to your health.
21.
It is very important to arrange for sufficient ventilation, especially
when cutting in enclosed spaces. We suggest using suitable fume
extractors to prevent the risk of intoxication by fumes or gas generated by
the cutting process.
22.
Noise can cause permanent hearing loss. Plasma arc processes can
cause noise levels to exceed safe limits. You must protect your ears from
loud noise to prevent permanent loss of hearing.
23.
To protect your hearing from loud noise, wear protective ear plugs
and/or ear muffs. Protect others in the workplace.
24.
Noise levels should be measured to be sure the decibels (sound) do
not exceed safe levels.
25.
The operator must ensure all flammable materials are removed from
the work area to avoid any risk of fire.
26.
The operator must NEVER cut containers that have previously
contained petrol, lubricants, gas or similar flammable materials, even if the
container has been empty for a considerable time. THERE IS A VERY
HIGH RISK OF EXPLOSION.
27.
The operator must be aware of all the special regulations which he
needs to conform to when cutting in enclosed spaces with a high risk of
explosion.
28.
To prevent electric shock, we strongly suggest the following rules:
a)
Do not work in a damp or humid environment.
b)
Do not use the machine if its cables are damaged in any way.
c)
Make sure that the earthing system of the electric equipment is correctly
connected and operational.
d)
The operator must be insulated from the metal components connected
to the return wire.
e)
The earthing of the piece being worked could increase the risk of injury
to the operator.
