Stand correctly, keeping a good footing and balance and ensure that the floor is not slippery. Wear non-slip shoes.
9
Ensure that the work piece is correctly secured before cutting.
9
Avoid unintentional contact with the work piece. Accidental or uncontrolled switching on of the torch may be dangerous and will wear the nozzle.
9
Keep unauthorised persons away from the work area. Any persons working within the area must wear the same protective items as
9
the operator.
DO NOT use cables and torch if the insulation is worn or connections are loose.
8
DO NOT attempt to fit any unauthorised torch or other component to the plasma cutting unit.
8
DO NOT cut surfaces that are painted, galvanic coated, oily or greasy.
8
DO NOT use cables over 10m in length.
8
DO NOT connect the return cable to any structure which is not part of the work piece (other than a metal work bench supporting the
8
workpiece).
▲ DANGER! DO NOT cut near flammable materials - solids, liquids, or gases. Remove all flammable materials such as waste rags etc.
