Safety Hazards During Arc Welding - Parkside PISG 120 A1 Bedienungs- Und Sicherheitshinweise Originalbetriebsanleitung

Do not weld atop containers,
„
receptacles or pipes, which
do or did contain flammable
liquids or gasses.
WARNING Avoid any direct
contact with the welding
circuit. The no-load voltage
between the electrode holder
and earth terminal can be dan-
gerous, there is a risk of elec-
tric shock.
Do not store or use the equip-
„
ment in a moist or wet environ-
ment or in the rain. The Protec-
tion Provision IP21S applies in
this respect.
Protect the eyes with the ap-
„
propriate safety glass (DIN
Grad 9-10) to be installed in
the included welding shield.
Use gloves and dry protec-
tive clothing free from oil and
grease to protect the skin from
ultraviolet rays and the arc.
WARNING Do not use the
welding power source to thaw
pipes.
Remember:
The arc ray can damage the
„
eyes and cause burns to the
skin.
Arc welding produces sparks
„
and drops of molten metal, the
welded work piece begins to
glow and remains very hot for
a relatively long time. There-
fore do not touch the work
piece with bare hands.
Arc welding releases noxious
„
fumes. Be careful not to inhale
these as best possible.
Protect yourself from the danger-
„
ous effects of the arc and keep
persons not involved in the work
at least 2 m away from the arc.
ATTENTION!
Depending on mains condi-
„
tions at the connection point,
operating the welding equip-
ment may interfere with the
voltage supply for other loads.
When in doubt, please contact
your power supply company.
Operating the welding equip-
„
ment may interfere with the
functionality of other devices,
e.g. hearing aids, pacemak-
ers, etc.
