C Ventilation
!
WARNING
Ade quately ventilate welding, heating, and
cutting work areas to prevent accumula-
tion of explosive or toxic concen trations
of gases. Certain combinations of metals,
coatings, and gases generate toxic fumes.
Use respiratory protection equipment
in these circumstances. When welding/
brazing, read and understand the Mate-
rial Safety Data Sheet for the welding/
brazing alloy.
D Personal Protection
Gas flames produce infrared radiation which may
have a harm ful effect on the skin and especially on the
eyes. Select goggles or a mask with tempered lenses,
shaded 4 or darker, to protect your eyes from injury
and provide good visibility of the work.
Always wear protective gloves and flame-resistant cloth-
ing to protect skin and clothing from sparks and slag.
Keep collars, sleeves, and pockets buttoned. DO NOT
roll up sleeves or cuff pants.
When working in a non-welding or cutting environ-
ment, always wear suitable eye protection or face
shield.

WARNING
Practice the following safety and operation
precautions EVERY TIME you use pressure
regulation equipment. Deviation from the
following safety and operation instructions
can result in fire, explosion, damage to
equipment, or injury to the operator.
