Safety Depends on You

Lincoln arc welding and cutting
equipment is designed and built
with safety in mind.  However, 
your overall safety can be in-
creased by proper installation . . .
and thoughtful operation on 
your part.  DO NOT INSTALL,
OPERATE OR REPAIR THIS
EQUIPMENT WITHOUT 
READING THIS MANUAL AND
THE SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
CONTAINED THROUGHOUT.
And, most importantly, think 
before you act and be careful.
