SET-UP AND SAFE OPERATING PROCEDURES

89210007

Safety Precautions

ARC RAYS, HOT SLAG, AND SPARKS CAN INJURE EYES AND BURN SKIN

Welding and cutting processes produce extreme localized heat and strong ultraviolet 

rays. 

Never 

attempt to weld/cut without a federally compliant welding helmet with the 

proper lens. A number 12 to 14 shade filter lens provides the best protection against 
arc radiation. When in a confined area, prevent the reflected arc rays from entering 
around the helmet. Approved shielding curtains and appropriate goggles should be used 

to provide protection to others in the surrounding area. Skin should be protected from arc rays, heat, 
and molten metal. Always wear protective gloves and clothing. All pockets should be closed and cuffs 
sewn shut. Leather aprons, sleeves, leggings, etc. should be worn for out-of-position welding and cutting, 
or for heavy operations using large electrodes. Hightop work shoes provide adequate protection from 
foot burns. For added protection, use leather spats. Flammable hair preparations should not be used 
when welding/cutting. Wear ear plugs to protect ears from sparks. Where work permits, the operator 
should be enclosed in an individual booth painted with a low reflective material such as zinc oxide. 

See 

safety and operating references 1, 2, and 3.

WELDING SPARKS CAN CAUSE FIRES AND EXPLOSIONS

 Combustibles reached by the arc, flame, flying sparks, hot slag, and heated materials 
can cause fire and explosions. Remove combustibles from the work area and/or provide 
a fire watch. Avoid oily or greasy clothing as a spark may ignite them. Have a fire 
extinguisher nearby, and know how to use it. If welding/cutting is to be done on a metal 
wall, partition, ceiling, or roof, precautions must be taken to prevent ignition of nearby 
combustibles on the other side. Do not weld/cut containers that have held combustibles. 

All hollow spaces, cavities, and containers should be vented prior to welding/cutting to permit the escape 
of air or gases. Purging with inert gas is recommended. 

Never

 use oxygen in a welding torch. Use only 

inert gases or inert gas mixes as required by the process. Use of combustible compressed gases can 
cause explosions resulting in personal injury or death. Arcing against any compressed gas cylinder can 
cause cylinder damage or explosion. 

See safety and operating references 1, 2, 5, 7, and 8.

NOISE CAN DAMAGE HEARING 

Noise from the air carbon-arc process can damage your hearing. Wear protective hearing 
devices to ensure protection when noise levels exceed OHSA standards. Adequate hearing 
protection devices must be worn by operators and surrounding personnel to ensure 
personal protection against noise. 

See safety and operating references 1, 2, and 6.
