Arc rays produce intense ultraviolet radiation which can burn exposed skin and cause eye
damage. Use a shield with the proper filter (a minimum of #11) to protect your eyes from
sparks and the rays of the arc when welding or when observing open arc welding (see ANSI
Z49.1 and Z87.1 for safety standards).
Use suitable clothing made from durable flame-resistant material to protect your skin.
If other persons or pets are in the area of welding, use welding screens to protect bystand-
ers from sparks and arc rays.
Fumes and gasses released during welding are hazardous. Do not breathe fumes that are
produced by the welding operation. Wear an OSHA-approved respirator when welding.
Always work in a properly ventilated area.
Never weld coated materials including but not limited to: cadmium plated, galvanized, lead
based paints.
Electric welding heats metal and tools to temperatures that will cause severe burns!
Use protective, heat resistant gloves and clothing when using Eastwood or any other weld-
ing equipment. Never touch welded work surface, torch tip or nozzle until they have com-
pletely cooled.
Grinding and sanding will eject metal chips, dust, debris and sparks at high velocity. To pre-
vent eye injury wear approved safety glasses.
Wear an OSHA-approved respirator when grinding or sanding.
Read all manuals included with specific grinders, sanders or other power tools used before
and after the welding process. Be aware of all power tool safety warnings.
