Residual Risk - Kemper MaxiFil Mode D'emploi

3.5 Residual risk

Even when all safety rules are observed, during the operation of the MaxiFil there
remains a residual risk as described below.
All persons working on and with the MaxiFil must know what this residual risk is and
follow the instructions that prevent these residual risks leading to accidents or
damage.
During set-up and preparation work, it may be necessary to dismantle on-site
facilities. This creates different residual risks and potential hazards that the operator
must be aware might arise.
WARNING
Serious injury to the lungs and the respiratory tract is possible -
wear breathing protection, e.g.: KEMPER autoflow XP or a
protective dust filter mask belonging to Class FFP2 as per EN 149.
Skin contact with welding fumes, etc. can cause skin irritation in
sensitive individuals - wear protective clothing.
Before starting welding work, ensure that the exhaust arm and the
exhaust hood are positioned correctly, the filter element is in
undamaged condition, and the device is running!
When changing the filter element there may be skin contact with
the separated dust and also some of the dust may be stirred up by
the work. Therefore, wear breathing protection and protective
clothing.
Embers in the filter element can lead to a smouldering fire and the
release of harmful/toxic fumes - switch off the filter unit, close the
damper in the exhaust hood and let the device cool down in a
controlled manner. If necessary take measures to extinguish the
fire, secure the danger area and inform the competent person
immediately.
Due to leaks at the filter element, dust may leak out into the
environment; rectify leaks immediately and clean the
contaminated area; wear respiratory protection and protective
clothing.
