6.3 Positioning the exhaust hood
The exhaust arm and the exhaust hood are designed so that they can be easily
adjusted and pulled into position with one hand. Once adjusted, the exhaust hood
remains in that position of its own accord. Furthermore, both the suction hood and
the arm can be pivoted through 360° so that almost any position can be set. For
adequate capture of welding fumes, it is important that the exhaust hood is always
positioned correctly. The correct position can be seen in the following picture.
• Position the arm so that the exhaust hood is obliquely above the weld.
• The exhaust hood must be positioned so that it safely captures the welding
fumes, taking into account the movement of welding fumes caused by the heat
and the suction range.
• Always move the exhaust hood with respect to the weld position as you
advance.
WARNING
An incorrectly positioned exhaust hood or too low an extraction efficiency
do not ensure that hazardous substance-containing air is captured
adequately by the exhaust hood. Hazardous substances can thus enter
the area where the user breathes and lead to injury to health!
6.4 Initial operation
• Turn the device on with the switch marked "0" and "I".
• The fan starts and the green operating control lamp indicates that the device is
running normally.
• Proceed with welding work only if the operating control lamp is lit.
• Always move the exhaust hood with respect to the weld position as you
advance.
