Potential hazards

There are a number of potential hazards that can occur during arc welding.
It is therefore particularly important for the welder to comply with the
following rules to avoid endangering himself or others and prevent injuries
or damage to the appliance.

▯ Do not use this flux-core welder on a surface that is inclined by more

than 10°.

▯ Work on the voltage side, e.g. on cables, plugs, sockets, etc., may only

be carried out by qualified specialists. This applies especially to the
fitting of intermediary cables.

▯ In the event of an accident, disconnect immediately from the welding

power source.

▯ If electrical contact voltages occur, switch off the appliance immediately

and have it checked by a qualified specialist.

▯ Always ensure good electrical contacts on the welding current side.

▯ Always wear insulating gloves on both hands during welding work.

These protect the user from electric shock (no-load voltage of the welding
current circuit), harmful radiation (heat and UV radiation) as well as
from incandescent metal and splashes of slag.

▯ Wear sturdy insulating shoes (should also be waterproof). Loafers are

not suitable as falling incandescent metal droplets can cause burns.

▯ Wear suitable clothing, no synthetic fibres.

▯ Do not look into the electric arc without eye protection; always use the

welding mask with the prescribed protective glass as per DIN. In addition
to the light and heat radiation, which can dazzle and/or cause burns,
the electric arc also emits UV radiation. If not properly protected, this
invisible ultraviolet radiation can cause a very painful conjunctivitis that
is not apparent until several hours later. In addition, this UV radiation
can cause sunburn-like effects on unprotected parts of the body.

▯ Any persons in the vicinity of the electric arc or helpers must be appraised

of the dangers and be equipped with the necessary protective equip­ment. If necessary, put up protective walls.

▯ No welding work may be carried out on containers that have been

used for storing gases, fuels, mineral oils or similar – even if they have
been empty for a long time – as possible residues may present a risk of
explosion.

▯ Special regulations apply in rooms where there is a risk of fire or

explosion.

▯ Welded joints that are subject to heavy stress loads and are required

to comply with safety requirements may only be carried out by trained
and qualified welders. Examples of this are: pressure vessels, running
rails, tow bars, etc.

Risk of injury due to electric shock

When there is no electric arc, there is a nominal no-load voltage of U0 be­tween the earth clamp and the flow nozzle. This voltage can be potentially
fatal if the welder touches the flow nozzle, torch nozzle, welding wire or
the workpiece with his/her bare hands.

▯ It is important to bear in mind that the protective conductor in electrical

systems or appliances can be damaged by negligence by the welding
current:
e.g. the earth clamp is placed on the welder housing which is connect­ed to the protective conductor of the electrical system. The welding
work is carried out on a machine with a protective conductor connec­tion. It is also possible to weld the machine without attaching the earth
clamp to it. In this case, the welding current flows from the earth clamp
via the protective conductor to the machine. The high welding current
can cause the protective conductor to melt.

▯ The supply to the mains socket must be secured as per regulations

(VDE 0100). In accordance with these regulations, only fuses or circuit
breakers with a corresponding wire cross section may be used (16 amp
circuit breaker). A too high fuse amperage can cause cable fires or
building fire damage.

Confined spaces and hot rooms

▯ When working in confined spaces or hot rooms, use insulated underlays,

filler layers and gauntlets made of leather or a different non-conduc­tive material to insulate your body against the floor, walls, conductive
appliance parts and similar.

▯ When using welding transformers to weld in environments with in-

creased electrical risks, e.g. in confined rooms with electrically conduc­tive walls (boilers, pipes, etc.), in hot rooms (sweating through the work
clothes), the output voltage of the flux-core welder in no-load operation
may not be higher than 48 V~ (effective value). Due to its output volt­age in no-load operation, the appliance may be used in this case.

Accident risks due to poor air supply in confined
spaces

▯ Considerable quantities of smoke and gases are produced during

welding. Ensure that there is a suitable opening for the extraction of
smoke and gases. Never feed oxygen into the room. This increases the
risk of fire.

Protective clothing

▯ While working, the welder must protect all body parts from radiation

and against burns by means of clothing and the welding mask.

▯ Wear gauntlets made of a suitable material (leather) on both hands.

They must be in perfect condition.

▯ To protect your clothes from flying sparks and burns, wear a suitable

apron. If the type of work requires it, e.g. overhead welding, wear a
protective suit and, if necessary, also the corresponding headgear.

▯ The clothing worn and all accessories must comply with the guideline

“Personal protective equipment” (89/686/EEC).

■ 6 │ GB│IE│NI

PFDS 33 A1

Protection against radiation and burns

▯ Warn of the danger to the eyes by hanging up a sign saying “Caution,

do not look into the flames!”.

▯ Work areas are to be shielded so as to protect people in the vicinity.

▯ Keep unauthorised persons away from the welding work.

▯ Do not set up fixed welding locations in the immediate vicinity of

light-coloured or glossy walls.

▯ Windows should be blocked off to at least head height to prevent the

escape or reflection of radiation, e.g. by painting with a suitable paint.

Risk of burns due to flying sparks

The spraying welding sparks can cause painful burns. Therefore, observe
the following guidelines:

▯ Always wear a leather apron.

▯ Use leather gloves.

▯ For overhead welding, wear suitable headgear.

▯ Ensure that your trouser cuffs fall over your shoes.

▯ Wear sturdy and insulated shoes.

Risk of accidents due to spattering slag

When it sets, the slag is hard and brittle. Afterwards, it can be chipped off
using the chipping hammer – sharp-edged particles may fly up that could
seriously injure your eyes.

Therefore protect your eyes by wearing suitable protective goggles when
removing slag.

Risk of fire due to flying sparks

If molten or incandescent metal and slag particles fall onto flammable sub­stances, these can ignite and cause a fire. Therefore, remove all flammable
objects from the working area before commencing welding work. Keep a
suitable fire extinguisher at hand.

Pay particularly close attention to the following materials.

▯ Paper

▯ Rags

▯ Textiles

▯ Wood and wood fibres

▯ Rubber

▯ Plastic

▯ Petrol

▯ Oils

▯ Tar-like substances

▯ Paints and solvent

Risk of explosion

Both the welding function and the superheated weld joint itself can cause
explosions. Therefore, do not use the appliance in a potentially explosive
environment containing combustible liquids, gases or paint mist.

Please also note:

▯ When the flux-core welder is in operation, do not lay the torch on the

flux-core welder itself or any other electrical appliance.

▯ Before finishing the welding work, do not touch the flow nozzle or any

other metal object with which the flow nozzle is in contact.

▯ Disconnect the appliance from the power immediately after completing

your welding work.

▯ Ensure that no cable is wrapped around any body part.

▯ Make sure that you are not within the welding current circuit. The welding

torch and earth must always be on the same side.

EMC appliance classification

As per the standard IEC 60974-10, this appliance is a welding unit with
class A electromagnetic compatibility. Thus it complies with the correspond­ing requirements for industrial and domestic use. In residential areas, it
may be connected to the low voltage electricity supply.

Even the flux-core welder complies with the emission limits of the standard,
arc welding appliances can nevertheless cause interference to sensitive
systems and appliances.

The user is responsible for any interference caused by the electric arc during
welding and must take appropriate preventive measures. The user must
pay close attention to the following:

▯ Power, control, signal and telecommunication lines

▯ Computers and microprocessor-controlled appliances

▯ TVs, radios and other playback appliances

▯ Electronic and electrical safety appliances

▯ People with pacemakers or hearing aids

▯ Measurement and calibration systems

▯ The electromagnetic immunity of other systems in the vicinity

▯ The time of the day at which the welding work is to be carried out.

To prevent possible interference radiation, we recommend:

▯ Fitting a mains filter to the mains connection or shielding it with a metal

pipe

▯ Maintaining the flux-core welder regularly and keeping it in good

condition

▯ Weld cables should be as short as possible, completely unwound and

running as close to parallel with the floor as possible

▯ An equipotential bonding should be provided

▯ The workpieces should be properly earthed

▯ Any appliances susceptible to interference radiation should moved out

of the welding area, if possible, or shielded.
