protective clothing.
d. Wear an approved head covering to protect the head
and neck. Use aprons, cape, sleeves, shoulder covers,
and bibs designed and approved for welding and cutting
procedures.
e. When welding/cutting overhead or in confined spaces,
wear flame resistant ear plugs or ear muffs to keep sparks
out of ears.
1. Prevent accidental fires. Remove any combustible
material from the work area.
When possible, move the work to a.
away from combustible; protect the combustibles with a
cover made of fire resistant material.
b. Remove or make safe all combustible materials for a
radius of 35 feet (10 meters) around the work area. Use a
