6. Commissioning your UNIROOF 700/300
6.1 Work environment and safety Health risk Welding PVC materials creates harmful hydrogen chloride vapors. The hot air welder should be used only in well-ventilated indoor areas. Read the material safety data sheet from the manufacturer of the material and follow that company’s instructions. Be careful not to burn the material during the welding process.
Danger of fire and explosion Never use the hot-air welder in explosive or readily inflammable surroundings. Maintain sufficient distance from combustible materials or explosive gases at all times. Caution The device should only be used on a horizontal (roof slope up to 30°) and fireproof support.
Caution Comply with national statutory requirements regarding occupational safety (securing personnel or devices).
Anti-fall protection when working on areas where there is a danger of falling. When welding on roof parapets (parapet, eaves), the hot air welder on the carrying handle (5) must be secured to a stop fixture with horizontal guides (such as rail or rope safety systems) as protection against falling. With respect to the safety chain, care must be taken to ensure that all of the safety elements (carabiner hooks, ropes) have a minimum load-carrying capacity of 7 kN in every direction that can be anticipated. For the suspension of the machine, it is mandatory to use clasp carabiners (Twist-Lock or screw types). All safety chain connections must be installed and checked in accordance with manufacturer specifications.
16

Additional plate

Before each use and after unusual occurrences, the carrying handle (5) that is used for fastening the safety rope must be inspected by an individual with expertise in this area. The carrying handle (5) is not permitted to exhibit any cracks, corrosion, notches or other material faults.
The additional weights must be reliably secured with the safety clamps (1 each at the front and rear) provided for this purpose.

Caution Only secure the hot air welding machine by the carrying handle (5).
Caution The hot wedge welding machine must never be fastened to single anchoring points which allow ropes to sag. The connection equipment must always be set to the shortest length possible in order to eliminate any chance of falling over the edge of the parapet.

Caution The effects of gravity mean a danger of uncontrolled falling or sinking. The securing point is not designed to withstand the shock-like stress of an abrupt fall. Absolutely contact the manufacturer if anything is unclear during installation or operation.
17

1 In cases of supply power failure, during work interruptions or when cooling down, you must swivel the hot-air blowers (10) into park position and allow them to engage there.
10 Take care to ensure that the hot-air blower lock (15) engages.
15
Power cord and extension cable · The nominal voltage specified on the device (see technical data [2]) must match the supply voltage. · The power cord (1) must be able to move freely and must not hinder the user or third parties during work
(trip hazard). · The extension cables must be authorized for the utilization site (such as, outdoors) and be marked accordingly.
Take the necessary minimum cross-section for extension cables into account as required. On-site generators for power supply When using on-site generators as a power supply, please ensure that the on-site generators are grounded and equipped with residual-current circuit breakers. For the nominal output of the power plants, the formula “2 x nominal output of the hot-air welder” applies.
6.2 Operating readiness Hook up the strain relief of the power supply cord (1) into the spiral holder (25) and then check the basic setting of the welding nozzle (9).
18

6.3 Positioning the device
· Check whether the material to be welded is clean between the overlap on both the upper and lower sides. · Then check whether the welding nozzle (9), drive/pressure roller (8), deflection roller (27) and press-
down belt (26) are clean. · Swivel the hot-air blower (10) so it engages in the park position. · Now raise up the hot air welder by the guide bar (22, 24) and move the device to the desired welding posi-
tion. · Now position the welding plate (see scope of delivery[4.2]) and then swivel the track guide roller (16)

observe the position of the track guide roller (16). · Avoid applying pressure to the guide bar (22, 24) during the welding process, since this may lead to welding
faults.

7.3 Finishing welding
· After finishing welding, pull the hot-air blower lock lever (15), extend the hot-air blower (10) up to the stop (this stops the drive motor) and swivel it upwards until it engages.
· Then swivel the track guide roller (16) upwards.

7.4 Switching off the device / Maintenance Use the Heating On/Off button (31) to switch off the heating, so the welding nozzle (9) cools down. This will trigger the cool-down mode. · The blower switches off automatically after approx. 6 minutes. · Now switch off the device with the main switch (19) and disconnect the power cord (1) from the electrical network.
· Wait until the device has cooled down. · Check the power cord (1) and plug for electrical and/or mechanical damage. · Use a wire brush to clean the welding nozzle (9).
