The welding machine is manufactured in accordance with technical standards and established safety
rules. However, incorrect handling results in the following dangers:
-
injury of maintenance personnel or third persons;
-
damage of the machine or property of the enterprise;
-
derangement of efficient working process.
All persons dealing with start‐up, operation, attendance and maintenance of the machine must:
-
undergo relevant qualifying examination;
-
have knowledge about welding;
-
carefully follow these instructions.
Malfunctions that can reduce safety must be eliminated immediately.
SAFETY RULES
DANGER OF MAINS AND ARC CURRENT
-
electric shock can lead to death;
-
magnetic fields created by this machine can have adverse effect on operability of electrical
appliances (such as cardiac pacemakers). People who use such appliances shall consult with a
doctor before approaching the operating welding area;
-
welding cable must be robust, intact and insulated. Loose connections and damaged cables
must be immediately replaced. Mains cables and cables of the welding machine must be
checked for insulation integrity by an electrical engineer on a regular basis;
-
when using the machine, never remove its outer case.
DANGER OF WELDING ARC RADIATION
It is forbidden to observe the welding arc with the naked eye. The arc and splashing generated during
operation can burn the skin or cause a flame, therefore a protective mask with a tinted filter should
always be worn (goggles must be equipped with goggles with a DIN 9 10 filter). Unauthorized persons
in the operating area of the device must protect their eyes with special goggles or use non-flammable,
radiation-absorbing screens.
DANGER OF HAZARDOUS GASES AND VAPOURS
-
if smoke and hazardous gases emerge in the operating zone, remove them with special means;
-
provide sufficient fresh air inflow;
-
arc radiation field must be free from solvent vapours.
DANGER OF MAGNETIC FIELD
Magnetic fields created by this machine can have adverse effect on operability of electrical appliances
(such as cardiac pacemakers). People who use such appliances shall consult with a doctor before
approaching the operating welding area.
DANGER OF SPARKING
-
remove flammable objects from the operating zone;
-
it is not allowed to weld vessels where gases, fuel or oil products are stored or used to be
stored. Residues of these products may explode;
-
when working in fire‐dangerous or explosion‐dangerous rooms, adhere to special rules in
compliance with national and international regulations.
INDIVIDUAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
To ensure individual protection, adhere to the following rules:
-
wear robust footwear, which retains insulating properties in moist conditions as well;
-
protect the hands with insulating gloves;
-
protect the eyes with a headshield, with is equipped with a black‐light filter complying with
safety standards;
-
wear only proper low‐flammable clothes.
DANGER OF INTENSE NOISE
The arc generated during welding can emit sounds above 85 dB during 8 hours of working time.
Welders working with the equipment wear ear protection during work.
