WARNING!
Welding is not permitted without an extraction unit being switched on.
It may possibly not be sufficient just to use a fume extraction torch.
In this case, additional extraction should be installed in order to reduce the concen-
tration of noxious substances at the work station.
In case of doubt, the concentration of noxious substances at the work station should
be assessed by a safety engineer.
