WARNING
Risk of burns from hot surface
Welding torches become very hot during welding. This may result in serious burns.
► Allow welding torches to cool down after welding.
► Wear the correct protective gloves.
CAUTION
Risk of injury due to unexpected start
If power is supplied during maintenance, cleaning or disassembly, parts can start running unexpectedly and lead to injuries.
► Switch off the device.
► Close all supply lines.
► Disconnect the electrical power supply.
8.1 Replacing wear parts, Fig. F
NOTICE
Material damage through use of unsuitable wear parts and mounting tools
The use of wear parts made by other manufacturers and the improper installation of wear parts can cause material damage to the
welding torch and impair work results.
► Use only original ABICOR BINZEL wear parts.
► Use the ABICOR BINZEL wrench for assembling and disassembling wear parts.
► Ensure that wear parts specific to the welding torch are correctly assigned.
► The order data and ID numbers for the equipment parts and
wear parts can be found in the current product catalog.
The torch neck can be fitted with various wear parts depending
on the welding task at hand.
