Fire Or Explosion; Burn Protection; Protecting Eyes From Flying Metal Or Dirt; Pacemakers - LOTOS LTP5000D User Manual

Welding or Cutting can cause Fire or Explosion.
Welding, cutting, and allied
processes can cause fire or
explosion if precautionary
measures are not followed.
• Develop adequate procedures and use proper
equipment to do the job safely.
Burn Protection: HOT PARTS can cause serious burns.
The work piece and equipment
get hot. The hot metal, hot work
piece, and hot equipment can
cause burns.
Protect eyes from FLYING METAL or DIRT.
• Welding, chipping, wire
brushing, and grinding cause
sparks and flying metal.
PACEMAKERS AND WELDING: MAGNETIC FIELDS can affect implanted devices.
Electric arc welding and cutting
processes produce intense electric
and magnetic (electromagnetic)
fields. The function of pacemakers
can be affected by strong
electromagnetic fields.
CYLINDER HANDLING: it can explode if damaged.
Shielding gas cylinders contain gas
under high pressure. If damaged,
a cylinder can explode. Be sure to
treat gas cylinders carefully.
• Keep cylinders away from any welding or other
electrical circuits.
If you encounter any difficulties during set up or operation:
• Consult this manual.
• Contact Lotos Customer Service by visiting

• Remove combustible materials from a sphere
with a minimum radius of 35 feet around the
work area or move the work to a location well
away from combustible materials.
• Use approved helmets or hand shields that
provide protection for the face, neck, etc.
• Wear approved safety goggles or glasses with
side shields, even under your helmet.
• Wear dry, hole-free insulated gloves.
• Wear approved safety glasses with side shields,
even under your welding helmet.
• Persons with a pacemaker should not go near
welding or cutting operations until they have
consulted their doctors and obtained information
from the manufacturer of the device.
• Protect compressed gas cylinders from excessive
heat, mechanical shocks, physical damage, slag,
open flames, sparks, and arcs.
• Install cylinders in an upright position by securing
to a stationary support or cylinder rack to prevent
falling or tipping.
