Light arc welding produces
„
sparks and drips of melted me-
tal; the welded workpiece will
start to glow and remain hot
for a relatively long time. The-
refore, do not touch the wor-
kpiece with your uncovered
hands.
Light-arc welding releases va-
„
pors that are hazardous to
health. Make sure that you do
