1. Safety Instruction
In the
Bug-O/All-Time Mechanical & Electrical Equip. Co. LTD, equipment is designed and
manufactured based on the s afety-first criterion. However, correct installation and
operation are the most important measures to ensure your safety. Installation, operation
and maintenance
are all forbidden before reading through this manual and
corresponding safety regulations included in it. Most importantly, customers should
consider proper installation
and maintenance before operation.
1. Beware of electric shock
A. During the welding operation of the worker, the circuit formed between the covered
electrode and the workpiece (or the ground) is charged. Exposed skin or moist
clothing are forbidden to contact these charged parts. Workers should put on dry
gloves with segregated fingers to obtain good insulations.
B. Make sure the equipment and workpiece are properly grounded. If the welding operation
must be conducted in the circumstance that may cause electric shocks (in moist
places or wearing moist clothes; on the metal structure such as the floor, the palisade
and the scaffold; when the body in not stretching such as seating, kneeing or reclining,
and the body will inevitably come in contact with the workpiece or the ground in these
conditions), the operation should be conducted according to the security specification
and the following equipment should be utilized:
Semi-automatic DC constant-voltage (wire feeding machine) welder
DC manual metal arc welder
AC welder with anti-electric function
C. In the semi-automatic and automotive welding process, many parts are charged,
such as the wire, the wire-feeding wheel, the welding head, the nozzle and the
semi-automatic welding torch.
D. Ensure that the electric cable is firmly connected with the workpiece metal.
E. The workpiece to be welded should be grounded well.
F. Ensure that the electrode holder, the workpiece gripper and the welder should be
operated in normal conditions. Meanwhile, the destroyed insulation parts should be
replaced in time.
G. Immersion of the electrode into the water to cool is forbidden.
H. Touching two wire holders of different welders simultaneously is forbidden for the
reason that the voltage between them may be high up to the sum of their open circuit
voltages.
