The welding arc produces radiation that can damage the eyes and burn the skin. In
addition to visible light and heat, the welding arc emits UV radiation that is invisible to the
human eye. In unprotected eyes UV radiation can cause damage to the retina and even
detachment. UV radiation can cause burns to the skin without protection. The electric arc
can give off hot metal particles that can cause injury. In addition to this, the welding
process produces sparks, spatter, and heating in the various materials involved that can
cause burns.
• Always wear a face shield. Warning: The product is delivered without a face shield.
Purchase a certified face mask and quality certified protective glass. The level of
protection must be at least 9-10. You should also have a tool to remove the slag from the
weld bead and a welding wire brush.
• Make sure the face shield protects the entire face.
• Warn people around the welding machine of the hazards of the arc for the eye. If
possible, use warning signs indicating not to look directly at the welding arc. Use barriers
to keep non-welding work related personnel at least 15 meters from the welding work site.
• Walls in the immediate area or places to be welded should not be light colored or with
glossy finishes.
