INDIVIDUAL PROTECTIONS AND OTHERS
Arc welding can be dangerous and can cause serious and even fatal injuries.
Welding exposes the user to dangerous heat, arc rays, electromagnetic fields, noise, gas fumes, and electrical shocks. People wearing pacemakers are
advised to consult with their doctor before using this device. Protect yourself and others. Ensure the following safety precautions are taken:
In order to protect you from burns and radiations, wear clothing without cuffs. These clothes must be insulated, dry, fireproof and
in good condition, and cover the whole body.
Wear protective gloves which guarantee electrical and thermal insulation.
Use sufficient welding protective gear for the whole body: hood, gloves, jacket, trousers... (variable depending on the application/
operation). Protect your eyes during cleaning operations. Do not operate whilst wearing contact lenses.
It may be necessary to install fireproof welding curtains to protect the area against arc rays, weld spatters and sparks.
Inform the people around the working area to never look at the arc ray or the molten metal, and to wear protective clothes.
Ensure ear protection is worn by the operator if the work exceeds the authorised noise limit. Ensure ear protection is worn by
anyone in the welding area.
Stay away from moving parts (e.g. engine, fan...) with hands, hair, clothes etc...
Never remove the safety covers from the cooling unit when the machine is plugged in - The manufacturer is not responsible for any
accident or injury that happens as a result of not following these safety precautions.
The pieces that have just been welded are hot and may cause burns when manipulated. During maintenance work on the torch, you
should make sure it's cold enough and wait at least 10 minutes before any intervention. The cooling unit must be on when using a
water cooled torch in order to ensure that the liquid does not cause any burns.
It is important to secure the working area before to leave it to protect persons and properties.
WELDING FUMES AND GAS
The fumes, gases and dust issued by the welding are dangerous for the health. It is mandatory to ensure adequate ventilation
and/or extraction to keep fumes and gases away from the work area. A fresh air mask is recommended in cases in case of
insufficient ventilation in the workplace.
Check that the aspiration it is efficient by controlling compared safety standards.
