SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS….cont
ed by radiant or conducted heat.
After the work is done, check that the area is free of sparks, glowing embers and
flames.
An empty container that has held combustibles, or that can produce flamma-
ble or toxic vapours when heated, must never be welded, unless the container
has first been cleaned. Consult HSE INDG214, HSG250 and CS15. HSE docu-
ment CS15 includes information on cleaning by thorough steam or solvent/
caustic cleaning followed by purging and inserting with nitrogen, carbon diox-
ide or water filling just below working level.
A container with unknown contents should be treated as if it contained combus-
tibles (see previous paragraph),
DO NOT
depend on sense of smell or sight to
determine if it is safe to weld.
Hollow items must be vented before welding as they can explode.
Explosive atmosphere; Never weld when the air may contain flammable dust,
gas or liquid vapours (such as petrol).
The electric welding arc must not be observed with the naked eye. Always use
the welding mask , ensure the welding mask is fitted with the correct shade of
filter lens for the welding current level.
Welding gauntlet gloves should be worn to protect the hands from burns, non-
synthetic overalls with buttons at the neck and wrist, or similar clothing should be
worn. Greasy overalls should not be worn. Wear suitable protective footwear.
Wear protective clothing, welding gauntlet gloves, hat and high safety toe
shoes.
Avoid oily or greasy clothing, a spark may ignite them.
Hot metal such as electrode stubs and work pieces should never be handled
without gloves.
First aid facilities and a qualified first aid person should be available for each
shift unless medical facilities are close by for immediate treatment of flash burns
to the eyes and skin.
Flammable hair products should not be used by persons intending to weld.
Warn bystanders not to watch the arc and not to expose themselves to the
welding-arc rays or to hot metal.
Keep children away whilst welding, they are not aware that looking at an arc
can cause serious eye damage.
Protect other nearby personnel from arc rays and hot sparks with a suitable non-
flammable partition.
