2. SAFETY
Employees operating the device should have the necessary qualifications authorizing them to perform welding work:
•
should have the rights of an electric welder in the field of welding with coated electrodes and gas shields,
•
know the principles of health and safety at work for power equipment such as welding equipment and auxiliary equipment powered by electricity,
•
know the health and safety rules for handling cylinders and compressed gas (argon) installations,
•
know the content of this manual and use the device for its intended purpose.
WARNING
Welding may endanger the safety of the operator and other persons in the vicinity. Therefore, special precautions should be taken when
welding. Before starting welding, read the health and safety regulations at the workplace. During MMA and TIG electric welding, the following
risks exist:
•
ELECTRIC SHOCK
•
NEGATIVE IMPACT OF THE ARC ON EYES AND SKIN
•
VAPOR AND GAS POISONING
•
BURNS
•
EXPLOSION AND FIRE HAZARDS
•
NOISE
Prevention of electric shock:
•
connect the device to technically efficient electrical installation with adequate protection and zeroing efficiency (additional protection against
electric shock); other devices at the welder's workplace should be checked and correctly connected to the network,
•
install power cables with the device switched off,
•
do not touch simultaneously the non-insulated parts of the electrode holder, electrode and workpiece, including the device housing,
•
do not use clamps and current leads with damaged insulation,
•
in conditions of special risk of electric shock (work in environments with high humidity and closed tanks) work with an assistant supporting the work
of the welder and watching over safety, use clothing and gloves with good insulating properties,
•
if you notice any irregularities, please contact competent persons to remove them,
•
Operation of the device with covers removed is forbidden.
Prevention of negative effects of the electric arc on human eyes and skin:
•
Wear protective clothing (gloves, apron, leather shoes),
•
Use shields or protective helmets with a properly selected filter,
•
Use protective curtains made of non-combustible materials and choose the right colors for the walls that absorb harmful radiation.
