CAUTION!
Keep the work area well lit. Make sure there is
adequate space surrounding the work area. Al-
ways keep the work area free of obstructions,
grease, oil, trash, and other debris. Do not use
equipment in areas near flammable chemicals,
dust, and vapours. Do not use this product in a
damp or wet location.

s
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
manufacturer’s instruction for the metals,
consumables, coatings, and cleaners.
5.
Work in a confined space only if it is well ventilated,
or while wearing an air-supplied respirator.
Shielding ga es 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.
