" SMOKE, FUMES, AND GASES CAN BE DANGEROUS TO YOUR HEALTH .
__ » Keep smoke,fumes, and gases from your breathing zone and the general area. Smoke, fumes, and
I . ; gases from the welding process are of various types and strengths, depending on the kind of metal
1 - . . being welded on. To ensure your safety, do not breathe these fumes or gases. Ventilation must be
adequate to remove smoke, fumes, and gases during the welding procedure to protect operators and others in the _
immediate area. Fumes produced by welding or cutting, especially in confined areas, can cause discomfort and
physical harm if inhaled over an extended period of time. Always provide adequate ventilation inthe welding and
cutting area to insure breathing air is safe. Use air-supplied. respirators if ventilation is not adequate to remove all
fumes and gases. Never ventilate with oxygen, because oxygen supports and vigorously accelerates fire. V
