relatively long period of time. Therefore, do not touch the
workpiece with bare hands.
Resistance welding can cause vapours to be released that may be
„
hazardous to health. Be careful not to inhale these vapours.
Protect yourself from the harmful effects of the welding procedure
„
and keep people not involved in the work at a distance of 2 m
away from the workplace.
ATTENTION!
During the operation of the welder, other consumers may experi-
„
ence problems with the voltage supply depending on the network
conditions at the connection point. In case of doubt, please contact
your energy supply company.
During the operation of the welder, other devices may malfunction,
„
e.g. hearing aids, cardiac pacemakers, etc.
z Potential hazards during resistance welding
There are a series of potential hazards that can occur during
resistance welding. It is therefore particularly important for the welder
to observe the following rules to avoid endangering him/herself and
others and to prevent damage to people and the device.
Work on the mains voltage side, e.g. on cables, plugs, sockets
„
etc., may only be carried out by qualified electricians according to
national and local regulations.
In the event of accidents, disconnect the welder from the mains
„
voltage immediately.
If electrical contact voltages occur, switch off the device immediately
„
and have it checked by a qualified electrician.
Always ensure good electrical contacts on the welding current side.
„
Always wear insulating gloves on both hands during welding
„
work. These provide protection from electrical shocks (no-load
voltage of the welding current circuit), harmful radiations (heat and
UV radiation) and incandescent metal and splashes of slag.
Wear sturdy, insulating shoes. The shoes should also insulate
„
when exposed to moisture. Loafers are not suitable as falling
incandescent metal droplets can cause burns.
Wear suitable protective clothing, no synthetic garments.
„
Do not work without work protection, only use certified eye
„
protection (EN 166).
Any persons in the vicinity of the work area or helpers must also
„
be informed of the dangers and be equipped with the necessary
protective equipment. If necessary, set up protective walls.
