1.3. OPERATION SAFETY
Please study these Operation safety instructions and respect them when installing, operating and
servicing the machine.
Welding arc and spatters
Welding arc hurts unprotected eyes. Be careful also with reflecting arc flash. Welding arc and
spatter burn unprotected skin. Use safety gloves and protective clothing.
Danger for fire or explosion
Pay attention to fire safety regulations. Remove flammable or explosive materials from welding
place. Always ensure that you have sufficent fire fighting equipment available where you are
welding. Be prepared for hazards in special welding jobs, eg. for the danger of fire or explosion
when welding containertype work pieces. Note! Fire can break out from sparks even several
hours after the welding work has been finished!
Mains voltage
Never take welding machine inside a work piece (eg. container or truck). Do not place welding
machine on a wet surface. Always check cables before operating the machine. Change damaged
cables without delay. Damaged cables may cause an injury or set out a fire. Connection cable
must not be crushed, it must not touch sharp edges or hot work pieces.
Welding power circuit
Isolate yourself by using proper protective clothing, do not wear wet clothing. Never work on
a wet surface or use defect cables. Do not put the MIG-gun or welding cables on welding
machine or on other electric equipment. Do not press the MIG-gun switch, if the gun is not
directed towards a work piece.
Welding fumes
Take care that there is sufficient ventilation during welding. Take special safety precau-
tions when welding metals which contain lead, cadmium, zinc, mercury or beryllium.
