Page 5: Specific Safety Rules
SPEcIfIc SAfETY RUlES Maintain labels and nameplates on the Heavy Duty Welding Kit. These carry important information. If unreadable or missing, contact Harbor Freight Tools for a replacement. Maintain a safe working environment. Keep the work area well lit. Make sure there is adequate surrounding workspace. - Page 6 Avoid overexposure to fumes and gases. Always keep your head out of the fumes. Do not breathe the fumes. Use enough ventilation or exhaust, or both, to keep fumes and gases from your breathing zone and general area. Where ventilation is questionable, have a qualified technician take an air sampling to determine the need for corrective measures.
- Page 7 Proper cylinder care. Secure cylinders to a cart, wall, or post, to prevent them from falling. All cylinders should be used and stored in an upright position. Never drop or strike a cylinder. Do not use cylinders that have been dented. Cylinder caps should be used when moving or storing cylinders.

The Pressure Adjusting Screw (18) on the Acetylene Regulator and the Pressure Adjusting Screw (A18) on the Oxygen Regulator should be opened slightly by turning counterclockwise to relieve pressure on the Regulator diaphragms before opening the cylinder valves. If this is not done, pressure from the cylinders may damage the diaphragms and render the Regulators inoperable.
