Safety instructions
Safety notices specific to
the welding shield
Using a hot light source (e.g.
lighter) always check the weld-
ing shield is working properly
before starting to weld.
Welding splashes can damage
the glass shield. Replace dam-
aged or scratched glass shields
immediately.
Promptly replace damaged or
heavily soiled / splashed compo-
nents.
The equipment may only be
operated by persons who have
turned 16.
Familiarise yourself with the safety
instructions for welding. Also refer
to the safety instructions of your
welding equipment.
Always use the welding shield
when welding. Failure to use the
shield may result in serious inju-
ries to the retina.
Always wear protective clothing
when welding.
Never use the welding shield
without protective glass, as the
optics can otherwise be damaged.
Replace the protective glass
early to ensure good visibility
and fatigue-proof working.

Tight and moist spaces
When working in tight, moist or
hot spaces, use insulating pads
and intermediate layers in addi-
tion to gauntlet gloves made from
leather or other insulating mate-
rials to insulate the body from
earth.
When using welding equipment
in electrically dangerous condi-
tions, e.g. in tight spaces from
conductive walls (kettles, pipes,
etc.), in wet spaces (soaking of
work clothes), the output voltages
of the welding equipment may
not be higher than 48 Volts (rms
value) in open loop. Based on
the output voltage this welding
equipment may be used in these
conditions.
Protective clothing
Whilst working the welder must
be protected against rays and
burns all over the body with the
appropriate clothing and face
protection. Remember the follow-
ing steps:
- Put on protective clothing before
welding.
- Put on gloves.
