A high risk of injury exists when the welding wire emerges from the welding torch (pier-
cing of the hand, injuries to the face and eyes, etc.). Always keep the torch well away

Therefore always keep the welding torch away from the body (devices with wire-feed
unit) and wear suitable protective goggles.
Never touch the workpiece during or after welding - risk of burns.
Slag can sometimes fly off workpieces as they cool down. The specified protective equip-

to ensure that other people are also adequately protected.
Welding torches and other parts with a high operating temperature must be allowed to
cool down before handling.
Special provisions apply in areas at risk of fire or explosion - observe relevant national
and international regulations.
