Maintenance of the arc welding
22
machines/cutting equipment
Arc welding machines/cutting equipment
should be regularly maintained as per the man-
ufacturer's recommendations. All access and
service doors and covers should be closed and
well secured when the welding machine/cutting
equipment is in operation. With the exception
of the changes and adjustments specified in the
manufacturer's instructions, the welding ma-
chines/cutting equipment should not be modi-
fied in any way. In particular, the spark gaps of
arc ignition and stabilisation devices should be
adjusted and maintained in accordance with
the manufacturer's recommendations.
Welding cables
Welding cables should be as short as possible,
close together, and should run across or near
the ground.
Electrical bonding
The electrical interconnection of all metallic
parts in and next to a welding machine/cutting
equipment should be taken into consideration.
Metallic parts connected to the workpiece can
increase the risk of the welder receiving an elec-
tric shock from touching these metallic parts
and the electrode at the same time. The welder
should be electrically insulated from all of these
connected metal parts.
Earthing the workpiece
It may be that the workpiece is not already
connected to earth for reasons of electrical
safety or because of its size and location, e.g. a
ship's hull or steel structures. If so, grounding
the workpiece can reduce emissions in some,
but not all, cases. Ensure that earthing the
workpiece does not increase the risk of accident
for the user or cause the destruction of other
electrical equipment. If necessary, the work-
piece must be grounded by a direct connection
to the workpiece. In countries where a direct
connection is prohibited, the connection should
be achieved using suitable capacitors, selected
in accordance with national regulations.
Screening
Selective screening of other cables and equip-
ment in the vicinity can reduce irradiation. The
screening of the entire welding/cutting set-up
may be considered for special applications.
Residual Risk
Despite the observance of the operating instructions
there still may be some hidden residual risks.
Even when the plasma cutter is operated properly,
there are still residual risks associated with the use of
the device. Even when the plasma cutter is operated
properly, there are still residual risks associated with
the use of the device
• Eye injuries as a result of glare,
• Touching hot parts of the device or the workpiece
(burn injuries),
• In the event of improper protection, the risk of
accidents and fire as a result of spraying sparks or slag
particles,
• Emissions which have adverse health effects as a
result of smoke and gas, in the event of lack of air
and/or insufficient extract ventilation in closed rooms.
Reduce the residual risk by operating the plasma cut-
ter carefully and properly and follow all instructions.

Emergency procedure

Conduct a first-aid procedure adequate to the injury
and summon qualified medical attendance as quickly
as possible. Protect the injured person from further
harm and calm them down.
If you seek help, state the following pieces of infor-
mation
1. Accident site,
2. Accident type,
3. Number of injured persons,
4. Injury type(s)

General Safety Rules

WARNING! Electric shock! There is a risk of
an injury caused by electric shock!
WARNING
Read all safety warnings and all instructions.  Failu-
re to follow the warnings and instructions may result
in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. Save all
warnings and instructions for future reference.
Keep your work area clean and tidy. Untidy work-
places and workbenches increase the risk of accidents
and injuries.
