10 Transport and storage
The BMK-8 U / BMK-12 W stud welders are robustly designed and have a two-piece metal housing
with front and rear panel. Owing to electronic components it should be ensured, however, that
transport is free from vibrations.
Both stud welders have two carrying handles on their top for easy transport and mobile use within
short distances.
CAUTION
The carrying handles are intended for transport by hand only. Never pull ropes through
these handles to lift the stud welder by means of a crane to the installation site. The
welding unit would become instable and might tilt from its original position. As a result
the handles could rip and the welding system would fall on the ground.
The GW-1 and GW-2 SOYER tool and gear wagons are the optimum solution for properly storing
welding guns, cables, studs and conversion kits (optional equipment).
NOTE
Prevent unauthorized use of the stud welding systems by children and unqualified
personnel.
After long system standstill, we recommend having the stud welding system checked by
SOYER

customer servicemen prior to start-up.
The housing of the BMK-8 U / BMK-12 W stud welders corresponds to safety class IP
21. Please observe that this system of protection is not suitable for being operated or
transported in the rain
