1.2 User and other persons' protection

Ensure the cooling unit is switched off before dis-
connecting the delivery and return pipes of the
cooling liquid. The hot liquid coming out of the
pipes might cause burning or scalding.
Keep a first aid kit ready for use.
Do not underestimate any burning or injury.
Before leaving work, make the area safe in order to
avoid accidental damage to people or property.
1.3 Electromagnetic fields &
interferences
Installation, use and area examination
This equipment is manufactured in compliance with the
requirements of the EN60974-10 harmonized standard and is
identified as "CLASS A" equipment.
This unit must be used for professional applications only, in
industrial environments.
The manufacturer shall not be held responsible for any damage
caused by use in domestic environments.
The user must be an expert in the activity and as such
is responsible for installation and use of the equipment
according to the manufacturer's instructions.
lf any electromagnetic interference is noticed, the
user must solve the problem, if necessary with the
manufacturer's technical assistance.
In any case electromagnetic interference must be
reduced until it is not a nuisance any longer.
Before installing this equipment, the user must
evaluate the potential electromagnetic problems
that may arise in the surrounding area, considering
in particular the health conditions of the persons in
the vicinity, for example of persons fitted with pace-
makers or hearing aids.
Shielding
The selective shielding of other cables and equipment present
in the surrounding area may reduce the problems due to elec-
tromagnetic interference. The shielding of the entire welding
(cutting) equipment can be taken in consideration for special
applications.
