ELECTRIC SHOCK CAN CAUSE
INJURY OR DEATH!
• Improper use of an electric welder and associated equipment can cause
electric shock, injury and death! Read all precautions described in the
specific Welder Manual to reduce the possibility of electric shock.
• The electrode and work (or ground) circuits are electrically “hot” when the
welder is on. Do not allow these “hot” parts or associated equipment to
come in contact with your bare skin or wet clothing.
• Separate yourself from the welding circuit by using insulating mats, protec-
tive clothing, leather welding gloves and insulated footwear to avoid being
part of the welding circuit.
• Be sure that the work piece is properly supported and grounded prior to
beginning an electric welding operation.
• If other persons or pets are in the area of welding, use welding screens
to protect bystanders from sparks and harmful arc rays.
EYE INJURY HAZARD!
• If other persons or pets are in the area of welding, use welding screens to
protect bystanders from sparks and harmful arc rays.
• Inadequate levels of arc ray shading can cause permanent eye injury. This
helmet is capable of protection up to shade level 13 only. If your particular
welding process emits arc radiation that requires a shade level higher than
13, DO NOT use this helmet and seek alternate protection.
• Eastwood welding helmets are designed to protect the user’s eyes and face
from harmful radiation, sparks and spatter under normal welding conditions.
They are not intended to offer protection against impact hazards, explosions
or corrosive liquids.
• Wear ANSI approved impact safety goggles under welding helmet.
• Always test Auto-Darkening feature before each use by quickly subjecting
the face of the Welding Helmet to sunlight or other bright light source. If the
Auto-Darkening feature fails to function, permanent eye damage can occur
from exposure to welding flash and radiation, DO NOT USE
• The operating temperature range of the Auto-Darkening feature is 23°F
to 130°F (-5°C to 55°C). The response time may be affected beyond the
described temperatures causing an unsafe condition. DO NOT USE beyond
recommended operating temperature range.
• DO NOT USE this helmet for oxy-acetylene welding or cutting processes,
laser welding or low amperage (less than 10 amps) TIG welding.
