SECTION 1 − SAFETY PRECAUTIONS - READ BEFORE USING som _3/05 Y Warning: Protect yourself and others from injury — read and follow these precautions. 1-1. Symbol Usage Means Warning! Watch Out! There are possible hazards with this procedure! The possible hazards are shown in the adjoining symbols. Y Marks a special safety message. . Means “Note”; not safety related. This group of symbols means Warning! Watch Out! possible ELECTRIC SHOCK, MOVING PARTS, and HOT PARTS hazards.
ARC RAYS can burn eyes and skin. Arc rays from the welding process produce intense visible and invisible (ultraviolet and infrared) rays that can burn eyes and skin. Sparks fly off from the weld. D Wear an approved welding helmet fitted with a proper shade of filter lenses to protect your face and eyes when welding or watching (see ANSI Z49.1 and Z87.1 listed in Safety Standards). D Wear approved safety glasses with side shields under your helmet.
1-3. Additional Symbols For Installation, Operation, And Maintenance FIRE OR EXPLOSION hazard. MOVING PARTS can cause injury. D Do not install or place unit on, over, or near combustible surfaces. D Do not install unit near flammables. D Do not overload building wiring − be sure power supply system is properly sized, rated, and protected to handle this unit. D Keep away from moving parts such as fans. D Keep all doors, panels, covers, and guards closed and securely in place.

SECTION 2 − CONSIGNES DE SÉCURITÉ − LIRE AVANT UTILISATION som _3/05 Y Avertissement : se protéger et protéger les autres contre le risque de blessure — lire et respecter ces consignes. 2-1. Symboles utilisés Symbole graphique d’avertissement ! Attention ! Cette procédure comporte des risques possibles ! Les dangers éventuels sont représentés par les symboles graphiques joints. Y Indique un message de sécurité particulier . Signifie NOTE ; n’est pas relatif à la sécurité. 2-2.
LES RAYONS D’ARC peuvent entraîner des brûlures aux yeux et à la peau. Le rayonnement de l’arc du procédé de soudage génère des rayons visibles et invisibles intenses (ultraviolets et infrarouges) susceptibles de provoquer des brûlures dans les yeux et sur la peau. Des étincelles sont projetées pendant le soudage. D Porter un casque de soudage approuvé muni de verres filtrants approprié pour protéger visage et yeux pendant le soudage (voir ANSI Z49.1 et Z87.1 énuméré dans les normes de sécurité).
2-3. Dangers supplémentaires en relation avec l’installation, le fonctionnement et la maintenance Risque D’INCENDIE OU D’EXPLOSION. DES ORGANES MOBILES peuvent provoquer des blessures. D Ne pas placer l’appareil sur, au-dessus ou à proximité de surfaces inflammables. D Ne pas installer l’appareil à proximité de produits inflammables. D Ne pas surcharger l’installation électrique − s’assurer que l’alimentation est correctement dimensionnée et protégée avant de mettre l’appareil en service.
