Away from areas where they may be struck or
subjected to physical damage.
•
A safe distance from arc welding or cutting
operations and any other source of heat, sparks
or flame.
d. Never allow the electrode, electrode holder, or any
other electrically "hot" parts to touch a cylinder.
e. Keep your head and face away from the cylinder valve
outlet when opening the cylinder valve.
f.
Valve protection caps should always be in place and
hand-tight except when the cylinder is in use or
connected for use.

For more detailed information it is strongly recommended that you purchase a copy of "Safety in Welding and Cutting -
ANSI Standard Z 49.1" and WTIA Technical Note 7. All WTIA publications and ANSI/AWS Standards are available from the
Welding Technology Institute of Australia, P.O. Box 6165, Silverwater NSW 2128. For copies of various Australian
Standards contact your local S.A.A. office.
To ensure that you receive the correct replacement part the following procedure should be followed:
1. Quote Serial Number and Code Number.
2. Quote the Description, Item Number and Parts List Number of the desired part. When ordering parts for items
carrying brand names of other companies, such as fan motors, drive shafts, etc., be sure to include the other
company's name and part number and other relevant information.
3. Parts should be ordered from Lincoln, its offices or the nearest Authorised Field Service Shop. (The "Lincoln
Service Directory" listing these shops geographically is available on request.)
Note: "Hardware" in the Lincoln Parts Lists are not Lincoln stock items but can be obtained via the Field Service Shop
network.
Component parts of assemblies such as stator coils or armature coils, etc., which require electrical testing or locating
fixtures are not considered replaceable items. This is to ensure that the customer receives parts which will keep the
welder in the best operating condition.

maintenance
maintenance work requires it to be running.
b. Operate engines in open, well ventilated
areas or vent the engine exhaust fumes
outdoors.
c. Do not add fuel near an open flame,
welding arc or when the engine is running.
Stop the engine and allow it to cool before
refuelling to prevent spilled fuel from
vaporising on contact with hot engine parts
and igniting. Do not spill fuel when filling
tank. If fuel is spilled, wipe it up and do not
start engine until fumes have been
eliminated.
d. Keep all equipment, safety guards, covers
and devices in position and in good repair.
Keep hands, hair, clothing and tools away
from V-belts, gears, fans and all other
moving parts when starting, operating or
repairing equipment.
e. In some cases it may be necessary to
remove safety guards to perform required
maintenance. Remove guards only when
necessary and replace them when the
maintenance requiring their removal is
complete. Always use the greatest care
when working near moving parts.
f.
Do not put your hands near the engine fan.
Do not attempt to override the governor or
idler by pushing on the throttle control rods
while the engine is running.
