General Safety Measures<br />
It is essential to read the entire operation manual prior to the first use. If there are any doubts arising regarding connection and<br />
operation of the device, consult the manufacturer (servicing department).<br />
Protect the device against moisture, rain and dust.<br />
TO PROVIDE FOR MAXIMUM SAFETY, FOLLOW CAREFULLY THE INSTRUCTIONS BELOW:<br />
The user shall be held liable for professionally done installation and for use of the machine in conformity with the manufacturer’s data.<br />
If the user detects any electromagnetic faults, he is responsible for removing the same and use of the manufacturer’s technical<br />
assistance. In many a case, just grounding the welding area is sufficient to remove the troubles. There are yet other cases, when<br />
developing an electromagnetic screen to cover the current source and the entire working area with a connected voltage filter may be<br />
helpful. In any case, the electromagnetic faults have to be removed so that they are not disturbing the user any more.<br />
Caution: For the sake of safety, the current circuit should not be grounded. Any alteration of the grounding system should be done by<br />
competent authorised personnel able to estimate the consequences and risks of the alterations done.<br />
Location Requirements<br />
Prior to installation and starting the machine up, the user should account for any possible electromagnetic faults in the area.<br />
The factors listed below should be taken into account:<br />
a) other supply, control, signalling and telephone cables above the welding machine and under it and also in the adjacent area<br />
b) radio and TV sets, receivers;<br />
c) computers and other control equipments;<br />
d) safety and monitoring instruments;<br />
e) condition of health of those present, e.g. pacemakers, hearing aids etc.<br />
f) meters used for calibrations;<br />
g) protection of the other instruments and devices in the welding machine area. These devices should be compatible.<br />
Supplementary protection measures may be required.<br />
h) Daytime, in which welding or other works are to be performed.<br />
The area that may produce effects on the welding machine operation is subject to the building structure and other activities being<br />
carried out at a time of welding. The area may be as large as to near the neighbouring buildings.<br />
Emission Reduction<br />
Source Current Supply<br />
As instructed by the manufacturer, the welding machine must be connected to the source current supply. If faults occur, it will be<br />
apparently necessary to provide for supplementary protective measures, such as a filter installed on the lead. The current leads of<br />
fixed welding machines should be protected with an insulation tube along the entire length of the cable. Welding cable should be as<br />
short as possible.<br />
Special Safety Regulations<br />
Introduction<br />
The arc welding machines were developed thanks to many-year experience in the welding profession. Provided that the methods of<br />
operation prescribed by the manufacturer are provided, they will guarantee a high level of operating safety in addition to very good<br />
welding properties. For this reason, the management should take care to ensure that every person working with the machine has<br />
access to this information.<br />
General Precautions<br />
Protection against Burns<br />
Sparkles, clinker, hot metal and radiation may be a serious hazard in arc welding putting eyes and skin at risk. The closer is the user<br />
or another person to the welding site, the bigger is the hazard they are exposed to. The user and any other persons working<br />
