Section 2 - Safety Considerations

Health and Safety Tips

Please observe these health and safety recommendations for safe, efficient, and injury-free operation of your welder. In this manual, the term welder and/or dual servo spin welder both refer to the Dual Servo Spin Welder.

Proper Installation - Do not operate the Dual Servo Spin Welder until after the electrical system is properly installed.

No Unauthorized Modifications - Do not modify your Dual Servo Spin Welder in any way unless authorized to do so by Dukane Corporation. Unauthorized modifications may cause injury to the operator and/ or equipment damage. In addition, unauthorized modifications will void the equipment warranty.

Keep the Sheet Metal Intact - Do not remove any of the protective sheet metal enclosing the motor or controls. The servo motors and drives have exposed electrical terminals which could cause injury or death if touched.

Grounded Electrical Power - Operate this equipment only with a properly grounded electrical connection. Refer to the NEMA Type 6–20R wiring diagram in Figure 2–1 and receptacle photo in Figure 3–5. If there is any question about the grounding of your AC power, have it checked by a qualified electrician.

Comply with Regulations - You may be required to add accessories to bring the system into compliance with applicable OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) regulations for machine guarding and noise exposure.

Operate Safely Keep your hands and body away from the tool head during operation. Always wear a face shield when operating the spin welder. Be extremely careful not to let long sleeves, necklaces or long hair become entangled in the spin welder during operation. Do not operate the welder if under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Read the warning labels on prescriptions to determine if your judgement or reflexes are impaired while taking drugs. If there is any doubt, do not operate the machine.

IMPORTANT

Always wear a face shield when operating the welder..

CAUTION

Welded parts may be hot..
