MORTAL DANGER
Persons with cardiac pacemakers must not operate the Stud Welder and
must keep away from a Stud Welder during operation. Ensure in particular
that the Stud Welding System is not operated near electronically sensitive
life-saving equipment, as in intensive wards in hospitals.
WARNING
Ensure that sufficient distance to electronic equipment is kept. Highly
intensive electro-magnetic fields are created in stud welding which may
permanently damage these devices (e.g. television sets).
• Furthermore, observe the safety instructions stated in Chapter 3.
• Call a doctor in the event of an accident.

MORTAL DANGER
The S-symbol is the symbol for welding current sources permitted
for operation with increased electric danger. The S-symbol on our stud
welders refers exclusively to the welding current circuit and not to the
complete stud welder.
