Safety in Welding - 5 operation can easily go through small cracks and openings to adjacent areas. Until ensuring that precautions are used to fully clean flammable and toxic gases, never weld any tanks, drums, containers or material. Never operate welder in places that flammable gases, vapors or liquid fuels exist. Always keep in mind the fire risk due to high temperatures in arc welding.
Page 9
Safety in Welding - 6 CYLINDER MAY EXPLODE IF DAMAGED : Use only compressed gas cylinders containing the correct shielding gas for the process used and properly operating regulators designed for the gas and pressure used. All hoses, fittings, etc. should be suitable for the welding application and maintained in good condition with a proper installation.
Page 10
Safety in Welding - 7 WELDED HOT MATERIAL MAY CAUSE BURNS : High amounts of heat may be produced from welding process. Hot surfaces and material may cause serious burns. While touching or moving this kind of material, always wear gloves. ELECTRIC and MAGNETIC FIELDS MAY BE HAZARDOUS ON HUMAN HEALTH : Electric current flowing through any conductor causes electromagnetic fields.
