WARNING!
Risk of explosion or asphyxiation due using of
inappropriate or damaged hoses or inappropri-
ate fixing of the hoses!
The use of inappropriate or damaged hoses and/or
inappropriate fixing may lead to leakage of gases.
Depending on the gases, this contains a risk of ex-
plosion or asphyxiation, and a health risk for the
user.
Therefore:
– Only use pressure resistant and intact hoses.
– Preferably use short hoses
– Ensure hose connections are made carefully to
the supply line as well as to the equipment
– Secure hoses with appropriate clamps
– Ensure hoses are not kinked
– Ensure use of the appropriate hoses (inner di-
ameter must fit with the hose nozzle), use adap-
tors as necessary.
– Strictly follow internal safety regulations con-
cerning the use of gases e.g. pure oxygen etc.
WARNING!
Risk of explosion due to usage of contami-
nated/impure gases!
Using contaminated/impure gases carries a risk of
explosion which may cause severe injuries and
loss of property.
Therefore:
– Only use clean, dry & oil- and dust free gases
