STAMOS TRON 200 RV Manual De Instrucciones página 71

• Touching electrically charged elements can cause electrocution or serious burns.
• The electrical arc and the working area are electrically charged during the power flow.
• The device's input circuit and inner power circuit are also under voltage charge when the power
supply is turned on.
• The elements under the voltage charge must not be touched.
• Dry, insulated gloves without any holes and protective clothing must be worn at all times.
• Insulation mats or other insulation layers, big enough as not to allow for body contact with an
object or the floor, must be placed on the floor.
• The electrical arc must not be touched.
• Electrical power must be shut down prior to cleaning or electrode replacement.
• It must be checked if the earthing cable is properly connected or the pin is correctly connected to
the earthed socket. Incorrectly connecting the earthing can cause life or health hazard.
• The power cables must be regularly checked for damage or lack of insulation. Damaged cables must
be replaced. Negligent insulation repair can cause death or serious injury.
• The device must be turned off when it is not in use.
• The cable mustn't be wrapped around the body.
• A welded object must be properly grounded.
• Only equipment in good condition can be used.
• Damaged device elements must be repaired or replaced. Safety belts must be used when working
at height.
• All fittings and safety elements must be stored in one place.
• When the device is switched on, the handle end must be kept away from the body.
• The ground cable should be connected as close as possible to the welded element (e.g. to a work
table).
The device can still be under voltage upon feeder disconnection!
• The voltage in the input capacitor must be checked upon turning off the device and disconnecting it
from the power source. One must make sure that the voltage value is equal to zero. Otherwise, the
device elements must not be touched.
2.5. Gases and fumes
Please note! Gas may be lethal or dangerous to human health!
• Always keep a certain distance from the gas outlet
• When welding, ensure good ventilation. Avoid inhaling the gas.
• Chemical substances (lubricants, solvents) must be removed from the surfaces of welded objects as
they burn and emit toxic smokes under the influence of temperature.
• The welding of galvanised objects is permitted only when efficient ventilation is provided with
filtration and access to fresh air. Zinc fumes are very toxic, an intoxication symptom is the so-called
zinc fever.
2.6. Security guidelines for work that constitutes a fire hazard
Preparation of the building and premises for work that constitutes a fire hazard:
• removal of all flammable materials and waste from rooms and premises where work will be carried
out;
• moving any flammable objects and non-flammable objects in flammable packages away to a safe
distance;
• materials that cannot be removed must be secured against e.g. welding spatter by covering them
with e.g. metal sheets, drywall, etc.;
• check if materials or flammable objects in surrounding rooms require protection;
• seal with non-flammable materials any openings in installation, ventilation, etc. located near the
place of work;
