CYLINDER MAY EXPLODE IF DAMAGED:
Use only compressed gas cylinders
containing the correct shielding gas for the process used and properly operating
regulators designed for the gas and pressure used. Always keep cylinders in an
upright position securely chained to a fixed support. Do not move or transport gas
cylinders with the protection cap removed. Do not allow the electrode, electrode
holder, work clamp or any other electrically live part to touch a gas cylinder. Gas
cylinders must be located away from areas where they may be subjected to
physical damage or the welding process including sparks and heat sources.
CAUTION:
The high frequency used for contact-free ignition with TIG (GTAW)
welding, can interfere with the operation of insufficiently shielded computer
equipment, EDP centers and industrial robots, even causing complete system
breakdown. TIG (GTAW) welding may interfere with electronic telephone networks
and with radio and TV reception.
NOISE APPEARES DURING WELDING CAN BE HARMFUL:
Welding arc can
cause noise with high level of 85dB for 8-hour week day. Welders operating welding
machines are obligated to wear the proper ear protectors /appendix No. 2 for the
