POISON HAZARDS
Fumes emitted from the cutting process displace
clean air and can result in injury or death. Do not
breathe in fumes emitted by the cutting process.
Make sure your breathing air is clean and safe.
Work only in a well-ventilated area or use a ven
-
tilation device to remove cutting fumes from the
environment where you will be working. Do not cut
on coated materials (galvanized, cadmium plated
or containing zinc, mercury or barium), as they emit
harmful fumes that are dangerous to breathe. If
necessary use a ventilator, respirator with air sup
-
ply or remove the coating from the material in the
cut area. Refer to the material safety data sheet for
the manufacturer’s instructions. Do not cut near
materials that will emit toxic fumes when heated.
Vapors from cleaners, sprays and degreasers can
be highly toxic when heated.
ROTATING PARTS HAZARDS
Rotating parts can cause serious injury. Avoid con
-
tacting the rotating parts when they are still in ro-
tation and make sure that you keep anything that
could be trapped in the operating machine, such
as loose hair and clothing, away. Keep your hands
away from the machining area when operating the
machine.
ELECTRICITY HAZARDS
Make sure that the electric cables of the machine
and the mains plug, that it is connected to, are in
good condition and not worn. Never use a damaged
machine or a machine with damaged or worn elec
-
tric cables and plugs. Do not expose the machine
and the electric cables to wet conditions and never
touch when wet. Use a socket outlet with ground
contact. Do not come in contact with grounded
surfaces or electric cables, to avoid the risk of elec
-
tric shock. Do not use the cable to pull the plug out
of the socket. Always lead the power cable away
from the rear of the machine and protect it from
heat, oil and sharp objects. . When the machine is
to be used outdoors, use only extension cords in-
tended for outdoor use. The cross section of any
extension cable must measure at least 1,5mm2 and
the mains connection must be protected by an ap
-
propriate fuse.
WORKING AREA HAZARDS
Thoroughly inspect the whole work area and use a
rake or yard brush to manually loosen debris and
remove anything that could be projected by the
machine, be a hazardous source or cause damage
to the machine if run over (stones, branches, iron
wire, bones etc.). Check that there are no bystand
-
ers, animal or items that could be damaged within
at least 10 meters of the machine’s range of action.
Work only in daylight, or with suitable artificial
light, in good visibility conditions. Try not to cause
any noise disturbance, by only using this machine at
reasonable times of the day.
Take on a firm and well-balanced position. Where
possible, avoid working on wet, slippery ground or
in any case on uneven or steep ground that does
not guarantee stability for the operator.
Storing of tools that are not in use should be done
in a dry and safe place away from the operating ma
-
chine and out of the reach of children.
Keep harmful arc rays shielded from the view of
others.
Mount the machine securely on a solid bench or
cart that will keep it stable and prevent it from tip
-
ping over or falling.
REMAINING HAZARDS
The machine was built using modern technology
and in accordance with recognized safety rules.
Even when all safety measures are in place, some
remaining hazards, which are not yet evident, may
be present. The operator should use common
sense and take necessary precautions to avoid risk
due to remaining hazards.
PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS
INTENDED USE
This product was designed and manufactured to
be used for cutting of metal objects. It's cutting
capacity is 15mm or less. It's operating princinple
is high speed cutting using high density plasma arc
as source of the heat. The plasma arc would be ac
-
quired by the compressed air as ionization medium
and the compression of the torch’s nozzle.
Environmental conditions during operation as fol
-
lows:
f
Temperature of -10°C to +40°C.
f
Humidity ≤50% at 40°C and ≤90% at 20°C
f
Altitude less than 1000m.
f
Power supply requirements:
f
Frequency distortion should be less than ±2% of
rated value.
f
Fluctuation of voltage is less than ±20% of rated
value.
Any other use differing from the above-mentioned
ones could be hazardous, harm people and/or dam
-
age things and the machine.
IMPROPER USE
The machine must not be used for handling hazard
-
ous materials, e.g. accumulation of inflammable
or explosive products, solid material or any other
object that could be dangerous to the machine it
-
self as well as the operator, bystanders, animals or
property.
Examples of improper use may include, but are not
limited to operating the machine:
1. Without the original accessories supplied by the
manufacturer.
2. With original accessories but in a way not in ac-
cordance to the instructions.
