SAFETY INFORMATION
8
Cylinders Can Explode If Damaged
Shielding gas cylinders contain gas under
high pressure. If damaged, a cylinder can
explode. Since gas cylinders are normally
part of the welding process, be sure to treat
them carefully.
1. Protect compressed gas cylinders from
excessive heat, mechanical shocks, and
arcs.
2. Install and secure cylinders in an upright
position by chaining them to a stationary
support or equipment cylinder rack to
prevent falling or tipping.
3. Keep cylinders away from any welding or
other electrical circuits.
4. Never allow a welding electrode to touch
any cylinder.
5. Use only correct shielding gas cylinders,
regulators, hoses, and fittings designed for
the specific application; maintain them and
associated parts in good condition.
6. Turn face away from valve outlet when
opening cylinder valve.
7. Keep protective cap in place over valve
except when cylinder is in use or connected
for use.
Welding Can Cause Fire Or Injury
Sparks and spatter fly off from the
welding arc. The flying sparks and
hot metal, weld spatter, hot
workpiece, and hot equipment
can cause fires and burns.
Accidental contact of electrode or welding
wire to metal objects can cause sparks,
overheating, or fire.
1. Protect yourself and others from flying
sparks and hot metal.
2. Do not weld where flying sparks can strike
flammable material.
3. Remove all flammables within 35 ft (10.7 m)
of the welding arc. If this is not possible,
tightly cover them with approved covers.
4. Be alert that welding sparks and hot
materials from welding can easily go
through small cracks and openings to
adjacent areas.
5. Watch for fire, and keep a fire extinguisher
nearby.
6. Be aware that welding on a ceiling, floor,
bulkhead, or partition can cause fire on the
hidden side.
7. Do not weld on closed containers such as
tanks or drums.
8. Connect work cable to the work as close to
the welding area as practical to prevent
welding current from traveling long, possibly
unknown paths and causing electric shock
and fire hazards.
9. Do not use welder to thaw frozen pipes.
10. Remove stick electrode from holder or cut
off welding wire at contact tip when not in
use.
11. When not welding, make certain no part of
the electrode circuit is touching the work or
ground. Accidental contact can cause
overheating and create a fire hazard.
Moving Parts Can Cause Inury
Moving parts, such as fans,
rotors, and belts can cut fingers
and hands and catch loose
clothing.
1. Keep all doors, panels, covers, and guards
closed and securely in place.
2. Stop engine before installing or connecting
unit.
3. Have only qualified people remove guards
or covers for maintenance and
troubleshooting as necessary.
4. To prevent accidental starting during
servicing, disconnect negative (-) battery
cable from battery.
5. Keep hands, hair, loose clothing, and tools
away from moving parts.
6. Reinstall panels or guards and close doors
when servicing is finished and before
starting engine.
