1 Safety Notes

1.1 Intended use

ROWELD P 110 must be used only for producing heating plate butt fusion welded joints of PE,

PVDF and PP pipes with outer diameters of 20 - 110mm.

1.2 General safety instructions

Read all of these instructions before you use the electric tool, and store the safety in-

structions properly.

Service and maintenance:

1 Regular cleaning, maintenance and lubrication. Always pull the electrical plug before any

adjustment, maintenance or repair.

2 Have your device repaired only by qualified experts and only with original replace-

ment parts. This ensures the continued safety of the device.

Working safely:

1 Keep your work area orderly. A messy work area can cause accidents.

2 Consider environmental influences. Do not expose electric tools to rain. Do not use elec-

tric tools in damp or wet environments. Keep the work area well lit. Do not use electric tools

where there is a risk of fire or explosion.

3 Protect yourself from electric shock. Avoid physical contact with earthed parts (such as

pipes, radiators, electric stoves or cooling devices).

4 Keep other people away. Do not let other people especially children touch the elec-

tric tool or its cable. Keep them clear of the work area.

5 Store electric tools safely when they are not in use. Unused electric tools should be kept

in a dry, high or closed area, out of reach of children.

6 Do not overload your electric tool. Work is better and safer within the performance range

indicated.

7 Use the right electric tool. Don't use low-performance machines for heavy-duty jobs. Do

not use the electric tool for purposes for which it was not intended. For example, do not use

a portable circular saw for cutting tree branches or logs.

8 Wear proper clothing. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery, as they can get caught in

moving parts. When working outdoors, wear slip-resistant shoes. Wear a hairnet over long

hair.

9 Use protective gear. Wear safety glasses. Wear a breathing mask during work that creates

dust.

10 Connect the dust extraction equipment. If there are connections to dust extraction and

collection equipment, make sure that they are connected and properly used.

11 Do not use the cable for purposes for which it was not intended. Never use the cable to

pull the plug from the socket. Protect the cable from heat, oil and sharp edges.

12 Secure the work piece. Use clamps or a vice to hold the work piece firmly. They will hold it

more securely than your hand can.

13 Avoid abnormal postures. Make sure to stand securely and always keep your balance.

14 Maintain your tools with care. For better and safer work, keep cutting tools sharp and

clean. Follow the instructions for lubrication and changing tools. Regularly inspect the elec-

tric tool's connection cable, and if it is damaged, have it replaced by an authorized expert.

Regularly check extension cords, and replace them if they are damaged. Keep the handles

dry, clean and free of oil and grease.

15 Pull the plug from the socket. When not using the electric tool, before maintenance or

when changing tools, such as saw blades, drills and cutting bits.

16 Do not leave any tool keys inserted. Before switching on, check to see that keys and ad-

justment tools have been removed.

17 Avoid unintentional activation. When plugging the tool in, make sure that the switch is

turned off.

18 Use outdoor extension cords. When outdoors, use only extension cords that are approved

and appropriately marked.

19 Be alert. Pay attention to what you do. Approach your work sensibly. Do not use the electric

tool when you are distracted.

20 Check the electric tool for damage. Before using the electric tool, you must inspect safety

equipment or slightly damaged parts carefully to ensure that they work properly and as in-

tended. Check to see that the moving parts operate freely and don't stick, and to make sure

no parts are damaged. All parts must be mounted properly and meet all the conditions for

ensuring trouble-free operation of the electric tool.

Damaged safety equipment and parts must be properly repaired or replaced by a profes-

sional facility, unless otherwise indicated in the user manual. Damaged switches must be

replaced by a customer service facility.

Never use an electric tool whose switch cannot be turned on and off.

21 Caution. Using other insertion tools and accessories may cause injury.

22 Have your tool repaired by an electrical expert. This electric tool meets applicable safety

requirements. Repairs must be made only by an electrical expert using original replacement

parts. Otherwise accidents many occur.
