AVOID HEATING NEAR PRESSURIZED
FLUID LINES
•
Flammable spray can be generated by heating near
pressurized fluid lines, resulting in severe burns to
yourself and bystanders.
•
Do not heat by welding, soldering, or using a
torch near pressurized fluid lines or other
flammable materials.
•
Pressurized lines can be accidentally cut when
heat goes beyond the immediate flame area.
Install temporary fire-resistant guards to protect
hoses or other materials before engaging in
welding, soldering, etc..
AVOID APPLYING HEAT TO LINES
CONTAINING FLAMMABLE FLUIDS
•
Do not weld or flame cut pipes or tubes that
contain flammable fluids.
•
Clean them thoroughly with nonflammable
solvent before welding or flame cutting them.
