1. Keep your head out of the fumes. Do not breathe fumes.
2. If indoors, ventilate the area and/or exhaust welding fumes and gases from the arc.
3. If ventilation is poor, use an approved air-supplied respirator.
4. Read the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) and the manufacturer's instructions for metals,
consumables, coatings, and cleaners.
5. Work in a confined space only if it is well ventilated, or while wearing an air-supplied respirator. Shielding
gases used for welding can displace air, causing injury or death. Be sure the breathing air is safe.
6. Do not weld in locations near degreasing, cleaning, or spraying operations. The heat and rays of the arc
can react with vapors to form highly toxic and irritating gases.
7. Do not weld on coated metals (such as galvanized, lead, or cadmium plated steel) unless the
coating is removed from the weld area, the area is well ventilated, and if necessary, while
wearing an air-supplied respirator. The coating and any metals containing these elements can
give off toxic fumes if welded.

Chipping and grinding cause flying metal. As welds
cool, they can throw slag.
1. Wear approved face shields or safety goggles. Side shields are recommended.
2. Wear proper body protection to protect skin.

XPLOSION
Sparks and spatter fly off from the welding arc. The
flying sparks and hot metal, weld spatter, hot work
piece, 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 metals.
2. Do not weld where flying sparks can strike flammable material.
3. Remove all flammables within a minimum of 35 ft. (10.7m) 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. Welding sealed containers such as tanks or drums is very dangerous. Expanding gases within the
container can cause explosions.
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. Remove stick electrode from holder or cut off welding wire contact tip when not in use.
10. Wear oil-free protective garments such as leather gloves, heavy shirt, cuff-less trousers, high shoes, and a cap.
