Risk Generated By Welding Sparks; Risk Generated By Welding Fumes - Furius FIX 161 MINI Manual De Instrucciones

Risk generated by welding sparks:

Sparks produced by the electric arc can cause fires or explosions if they come into contact with flammable
or explosive materials.
• Do not use the device in environments that present an explosion hazard or where there are flammable
liquids, gases or dust. The welders produce sparks and molten metal that can start a conflagra�on.
• Remove all flammable substances from the job site. Fire cannot be detected while using eye protec�on
when welding.
• Do not carry out welding processes on containers, naval ar�facts or pipes that have contained flammable
liquids such as gasoline, mineral oils or gas even if they were unoccupied a long �me ago since a small
quan�ty may represent an explosion risk.
• Do not use the machine to thaw pipes, do not weld in sealed containers.
• Always keep a charged fire ex�nguisher and a trained person to use it close to the workplace.

Risk generated by welding fumes

Breathing the fumes, gases and par�cles generated by welding can cause serious problems for your health,
in the short and long term.
• Keep your head away from fumes.
• Ensure adequate ven�la�on, use an appropriate air extrac�on system.
• Make sure you have an adequate amount of fresh air at your disposal.
• Use the machine in open areas.
