9. Additional Safety Instructions for safety
clothing
a) While working, the welder must protect his
entire body from radiation and burns by wearing
suitable clothing and a face guard.
b) Slip-on gloves made of a suitable material
(leather) must be worn on both hands. They must
be in perfect condition.
c) Suitable aprons must be worn to protect
clothing from sparks and burns. A safety suit and if
necessary, head protection must be worn if
required by the type of work in question, e.g.
overhead welding.
d) The safety clothing used as well as all
accessories must comply with the “Personal Safety
Equipment” directive.
10. Additional Safety Instructions for
Protection from radiation and burns.
a) Provide information about the risk to eyes at
the working site in the form of a poster with the
wording “Caution – do not look at the flames”.
Workplaces are to be screened off wherever
possible so that personnel in the vicinity are
protected. Unauthorized persons are to be kept
away from the welding work.
b) The walls in the immediate vicinity of
stationary workplaces should not have a light
color or a sheen. Windows up to head height are
to be protected against radiation passing
through them or reflecting off them, for example
by coating them with a suitable paint.
Do not store or use the equipment in wet
conditions or in the rain. Use the equipment only
indoors.
GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS
11. Using an Extension Cable
.
a)
If an extension cable is required, use an
approved triple core extension cable
suitable for the power input of the tool.
b)
Grounded tools always require a three
wire extension cable.
c)
As the distance from the supply outlet
increases you must use a heavier gauge
extension cable. Using extension cables with
inadequately sized wire causes a serious drop
in voltage, resulting in loss of power and
possible tool damage.
d)
The smaller the gauge number of the wire
the greater the capacity of the cord.
e)
When using a cable reel, always unwind
the cable completely.
