Fumes And Gases
WARNING!
Welding produces fumes and gases. Breathing
these fumes and gases can be hazardous to your
health.
1. Keep your head out of the fumes. Do not breathe
the fumes.
2. If inside, ventilate the area and/or use an exhaust
at the arc to remove welding fumes and gases.
3. If ventilation is poor, use an approved air-supplied
respirator.
4. Read the Safety Data Sheets (SDS) and the manufac-
turer’s instruction for the metals, consumables, coat-
ings, and cleaners.
5. Work in a confined space only if it is well ventilated,
or while wearing an air-supplied respirator. Shielding
gases used for welding can displace air causing injury
or death. Be sure the breathing air is safe.
6. Do not weld in locations near degreasing, cleaning, or
spraying operations. The heat and rays of the arc can
react with vapours to form highly toxic and irritating
gases.
