3.2 HAZARDS AND PERSONAL BODY PROTECTION
Please also observe the relevant regulations of the respective country.
RISK OF INJURY FROM RADIATION OR HEAT:
Protective gloves must be worn when welding.
Uncovered areas of the skin must be protected from the
UV radiation generated during welding in order to avoid
skin damage.
Wear suitable dry protective clothing with no synthetic
fibers.
The workpiece and the electrode tip can become very hot
during welding – risk of burns.
Welding can cause sparks and spatters – risk of burns.
EYE PROTECTION WHEN WELDING:
Never look into the arc without eye protection; always use
a welding mask with certified protective glass.
In addition to light and thermal radiation, which can cause
dazzling and burning, the electric arc also emits UV
radiation. With insufficient protection this invisible
ultraviolet radiation causes very painful conjunctivitis,
which can first be noticed hours later, and can also cause
permanent eye damage.
The Lampert eye protection systems with its integrated
LCD protective welding screen offers reliable protection
against these risks and provides permanent protection
from UV / IR rays in both light and dark state. The
protective class of the filter is defined such that dazzling
by the arc is effectively prevented.
Persons who are nearby to the electric arc and assistants
must also be informed of the dangers and equipped with
the appropriate protection; if necessary set up protective
partition walls.
EYE PROTECTION WHEN OPERATING THE LED
ILLUMINATION:
Never look into the LED lamp or its reflections without eye
protection; use protective shield or safety glasses with
suitable protective glass.
SMOKES AND GASES:
When welding, especially in small spaces, ensure that
there is an adequate fresh air supply or use an external
extractor fan, as smoke and hazardous gases occur.
EXPLOSION HAZARD – DANGER WHEN
WELDING ON CONTAINERS:
It is not permitted to carry out welding on containers that
have been used for storing gases, propellants, mineral
oils or similar, even if they have been empty for a long
time, as there is a risk of explosions caused by residues.
Particular regulations apply to fire and explosion
endangered spaces.
OTHER DANGERS:
The electrode tip installed in the handpiece means a risk
of injury (stabbing and scratching of e.g. hand, face and
eyes).
3.3 HAZARDS OF SHIELDING GAS CYLINDERS:
Observe all applicable safety measures when
handling gas cylinders as well as the safety
regulations for handling gases. Gas tanks must especially
be secured against falling over / falling down and heat
(max. 50°C); it is particularly important to ensure they are
not subjected to sunlight for extended periods and that they
are protected from severe frost.
3.4
RISK OF ALLERGIC REACTIONS:
Please note that the device's raw materials that
could come into contact with the operator's skin
may cause allergic reactions in susceptible people.
4. SETUP AND INSTALLATION
4.1 SET-UP OF THE DEVICE
The system is to be set up so that cooling air is able to
reach all of the surfaces of the housing without hindrance.
The device may not be covered! The device is to be placed
on a non-combustible surface! The device should be set up
on a base that is solid, level, and insulated - ideally on a
suitable workbench.
