Electrolyte solution can cause severe chemical burns!
Always wear alkaline-resistant gloves and goggles when you
work with electrolyte solution! Do not eat or drink while filling
electrolyte solution into the unit!
Wash your hands after filling the reactor!
Avoid contact with eyes and skin! In case of contact with the
eyes rinse the open eye(s) under running water for several
minutes and seek medical advice. In case of contact with the
skin wash immediately with soap and rinse thoroughly.
If you have overfilled the unit, do not remove any excess
electrolyte by sucking it through a hose by mouth. There is a
risk of severe chemical burns! If you have overfilled the unit by
mistake, use a suitable alkaline-resistant suction device which
is not operated by mouth.
Electrolyte containers which are not completely empty must be
kept tightly closed and stored out of reach of unauthorized
persons, in particular of children. Thoroughly rinse empty
electrolyte containers with water. Then the container can be
disposed of into the ordinary waste. We recommend to contact
the local authorities for information on the use and waste
disposal of electrolytes.
Risk of fire and explosion!
The vaporizer liquid is a flammable
substance! Keep away from ignition sources while filling
vaporizer liquid into the unit!
Avoid inhaling the vapors! Do not eat, drink or smoke while
handling the vaporizer liquid! Wear goggles and gloves!
MIG-O-MAT vaporizer liquid
BLQ 1800
is not toxic. When using
other, methanol-containing vaporizer liquids, take into
consideration that these substances may be highly toxic! Read
and observe the relevant instructions on the labels of the
products used.
Risk of fire and explosion!
Do not leave the unit switched on
unsupervised. The gas escaping from the unit is highly
flammable and explosive. The switched-on unit must be
operated with opened valve only until the flame ignites. Any
escaping gas which does not burn in a flame causes a high risk
of fire and explosion! For refilling the reactor keep away from
ignition sources! Even the open pressure-less reactor contains
highly explosive burnable gases.
To prevent the creation of electrostatic sparks immediately
before opening the reactor (e.g. for checking the filling level or
for refilling demineralized water), touch the cap nuts on the top
part of the unit or the metal screws on the housing with both
hands.
