Safety Precautions
• Do not point the torch towards any part of the body, other persons, or any metal while unwrapping
the welding wire.
• When welding wire is run manually from the roller especially in thin diameters the wire can slip out
of your hand, like a spring or can cause damage to you or other people around, therefore you must
protect your eyes and face while working on this.
• In small-sized and confined spaces, absolutely make sure to perform welding and cutting operations,
accompanied by another person.
• Avoid performing welding and cutting operations in such enclosed areas as much as possible.
• Take all necessary precautions when moving the machine. The areas where the machine to be
transported, parts to be used in transportation and the physical conditions and health of the person
carrying out the transportation works should be suitable for the transportation process.
• Some machines are extremely heavy; therefore, make sure that the necessary environmental safety
measures are taken when changing their places.
• If the welding machine is to be used on a platform, it must be checked that this platform has suitable
load bearing limits.
• If it is to be transported by means of a haulage vehicle (transport trolley, forklift etc.), make sure of
the durableness of the vehicle, and the connection points (carrying suspenders, straps, bolts, nuts,
wheels, etc.) that connect the machine to this vehicle.
• If the machine will be carried manually, make sure the durableness of the machine apparatuses
(carrying suspenders, straps, etc.) and connections.
• Observe the International Labor Organization’s rules on carriage weights and the transport
regulations in force in your country in order to ensure the necessary transport conditions.
• Electrical equipment should not be repaired by unauthorized persons. Errors occurred if failed to do so
may result in serious injury or death when using the equipment.
• The gas circuit elements operate under pressure; explosions may occur as a result of services provided
by unauthorized persons, users may sustain serious injuries.
• It is recommended to perform technical maintenance of the machine and its auxiliary units at least
once a year.
• Never perform welding work in places near flammable materials. There may be fire or explosions.
• Before starting the welding work, remove these materials form the environment or cover them with
protective covers to prevent combustions and flaring.
• National and international special rules apply in these areas.
• Do not apply welding or cutting operations into completely closed tanks or pipes.
• Before welding to tanks and closed containers, open them, completely empty them, and clean them.
Pay the greatest attention possible to the welding operations you will perform in such places.
• Do not weld in tanks and pipes which might have previously contained substances that may cause
explosions, fires or other reactions.
• Welding equipment heats up. For this reason, do not place it on surfaces that could easily burn or be
damaged !
• Welding sparks can cause fire. For this reason, keep materials such as fire extinguishers tubes, water,
and sand in easily accessible places.
• Use holding valves, gas regulators and valves on flammable, explosive and compressed gas circuits.
Make sure that they are periodically inspected and pay attention that they run reliably.
