Additional safety precautions
In welding work
- in environments with increased risk of electric
shock;
- in confined spaces;
- in the presence of flammable or explosive sub-
stances
a "responsible expert" must weigh up the circumstances.
This work may only be carried out in the presence of
other persons who can intervene in an emergency.
- the technical protection means used in 7.10; A.8; A.10
of the standard "EN 60974-9: Arc welding equipment.
Part 9: Building and Operating "are called.
- Welding must be prohibited when the welder or wire
feed system is being worn by the operator (such as
belts).
- Welding must be prohibited when the operator works
above ground level, unless he uses a safety platform.
Voltage between electrode terminals or burners:
When working with multiple welders on a single work-
piece or on multiple, electrically connected workpieces,
the open circuit voltages between two different electrode
terminals or torches can add up to twice the allowable li-
mit.
A specialist coordinator shall carry out an instrument me-
asurement to determine whether there is a risk and
whether the appropriate safeguards are provided for in
point 7.9 of the standard EN 60974-9: Arc welding equip-
ment. Part 9: Building and Operating ".
2.6 Safety information
The welder has safety labels and instructions that must
be observed and followed.
Damaged or missing safety symbols on the welding ma-
chine can lead to malfunctions with personal injury and
property damage. The safety symbols attached to the
welding machine must not be removed. Damaged safety
symbols must be replaced immediately.
From the moment the signs are not immediately recogni-
zable and comprehensible, the welder must be taken out
of service until the new signs are fitted.
2.7 Safety equipment
3 Intended use
This inert gas system is intended exclusively for arc wel-
ding according to MIG (Metal Inert Gas Welding) or MAG
(Metal Active Gas Welding) process. By means of these
two methods, similar metals such as e.g. alloyed or unal-
loyed steels, stainless steels or aluminum welded to-
gether. Another use is not allowed. The welding machine
may only be operated by persons who have been in-
structed in the use of MIG / MAG systems. It may only be
operated in the power range specified in the technical
data.
The device is built and tested according to EN 60974-10
in EMC class A.
Proper use also includes compliance with all information
in this manual. Any use beyond the intended use or
otherwise is considered misuse
For structural and technical changes to the welding ma-
chine, the company Stürmer Maschinen GmbH assumes
no liability.
Claims of any kind due to damage due to improper use
are excluded.
WARNING!
Danger to life due to non-functioning safety
devices!
Failure to operate or disable the safety equipment
can result in serious injury or even death.
- Before starting work, check that all safety equip-
ment is in place and correctly installed.
- Never bypass or override the safety devices.
- Ensure that all safety devices are always acces-
sible.
WARNING!
Danger due to uncontrolled restart!
Uncontrolled restarting of the welding machine can lead
to serious injuries.
- Before switching on again, make sure that the
cause of the shutdown has been eliminated and all
safety devices are mounted and in working order.
- Do not switch on the welding machine until there is
no danger.
WARNING!
This Class A welding equipment is not intended for
use in residential premises where power is supplied
by a public low voltage power supply system. Both
conducted and radiated disturbances may make it
difficult to provide electromagnetic compatibility in
these areas.
WARNING!
Danger in case of misuse!
Misuse of the welder can lead to dangerous situati-
ons.
- Only operate the welding machine in the power
range specified in the technical data.
- Never bypass or override the safety devices.
- Only operate the welding machine in a technically
perfect condition.
