Protective clothing
„
Whilst working the welder
must be protected against rays
and burns all over the body
with the appropriate clothing
and face protection. Remem-
ber the following steps:
ƒ
Put on protective clothing
before welding.
ƒ
Put on gloves.
ƒ
Open windows or vent to
ensure air supply.
ƒ
Wear safety goggles and a
mask.
„
Wear gauntlet gloves made
from suitable material (leather)
on both hands. These must be
in good condition.
„
Wear suitable aprons to pro-
tect the clothing from sparks
and burns. When required
based on the working method,
e.g. welding overhead, wear
a protective suit and, if neces-
sary, a head guard.
z
Protecting against
rays and burns
„
Mark the work area with a
sign „Danger! Do not look into
flames!“ to indicate the risk to
the eyes. If possible, shield the
work areas to protect persons
nearby. Keep unauthorised
persons away from the weld-
ing area.
„
Walls in the direct vicinity
of fixed work areas should
be neither light coloured
nor glossy. Protect windows
against rays passing through
or reflecting at a minimum to
head height, e.g. with suitable
paint.
