SAFETY
Instant-On Torches
Plasma arc comes on immediately when the
torch switch is activated.
A PLASMA ARC CAN CAUSE INJURY AND BURNS
The plasma arc will cut quickly through gloves
and skin.
• Keep away from the torch tip.
• Do not hold metal near the cutting path.
• Never point the torch toward yourself or others.
Eye Protection Plasma arc rays produce intense
visible and invisible (ultraviolet and infrared) rays
that can burn eyes and skin.
• Use eye protection in accordance with applicable
national or local codes.
• Wear eye protection (safety glasses or goggles
with side shields, and a welding helmet) with
appropriate lens shading to protect your eyes
from the arc’s ultraviolet and infrared rays.

ARC RAYS CAN BURN EYES AND SKIN
Skin Protection Wear protective clothing to
protect against burns caused by ultraviolet light,
sparks and hot metal.
• Gauntlet gloves, safety shoes and hat.
• Flame-retardant clothing to cover all exposed
areas.
• Cuffless trousers to prevent entry of sparks
and slag.
• Remove any combustibles, such as a butane
lighter or matches, from your pockets before
cutting.
Cutting Area Prepare the cutting area to reduce
reflection and transmission of ultraviolet light:
• Paint walls and other surfaces with dark colors to
reduce reflection.
• Use protective screens or barriers to protect
others from flash and glare.
• Warn others not to watch the arc. Use placards
or signs.
