2 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

WARNING!

These Safety Precautions are for your protection. They summarise precautionary

information from the references listed in the Additional Safety Information section.

Before performing any installation or operating procedures, be sure to read and

follow the safety precautions listed below as well as all other manuals, material

safety data sheets, labels, etc. Failure to observe the Safety Precautions could

result in injury or death.

PROTECT YOURSELF AND OTHERS

Some welding, cutting and gouging processes are noisy and require

hearing protection. The arc, like the sun, emits ultraviolet (UV) and

other radiation and can injure the skin and eyes. Hot metal can cause

burns. Training in the proper use of the processes and equipment is

essential to prevent accidents. Therefore:

1. Always wear safety glasses with side shields in any work area, even if welding helmets,

face shields and goggles are also required.

2. Use a face shield fitted with the correct filter and cover plates to protect your eyes, face,

neck and ears from sparks and rays of the arc when operating or observing operations.

Warn bystanders not to look at the arc and not to expose themselves to the rays of the

electric-arc or hot metal.

3. Wear flameproof gauntlet type gloves, heavy long-sleeve shirt, cuffless trousers,

high-topped shoes and a welding helmet or cap for protection, to protect against arc rays

and hot sparks or hot metal. A flameproof apron may also be desirable as protection

against radiated heat and sparks.

4. Hot sparks or metal can lodge in rolled up sleeves, trouser cuffs, or pockets. Sleeves and

collars should be kept buttoned and open pockets eliminated from the front of the

clothing.

5. Protect other personnel from arc rays and hot sparks using a suitable nonflammable

partition or curtains.

6. Use goggles over safety glasses when chipping slag or grinding. Chipped slag may be

hot and can fly for long distances. Bystanders should also wear goggles over safety

glasses.

FIRES AND EXPLOSIONS

The heat from flames and arcs can start fires. Hot slag or sparks can

also cause fires and explosions. Therefore:

1. Remove all combustible materials well away from the work area or cover the materials

with a protective nonflammable covering. Combustible materials include wood, cloth,

sawdust, liquid and gas fuels, solvents, paints and coating paper, etc.

2. Hot sparks or hot metal can fall through cracks or crevices in floors or wall openings and

cause a hidden smoldering fire or fires on the floor below. Make certain that such

openings are protected from hot sparks and metal.

3. Do not weld, cut or perform other hot work until the workpiece has been completely

cleaned, to ensure there are no substances on the workpiece which might produce

flammable or toxic vapors. Do not perform hot work on closed containers. They may

explode.

2 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

0462 985 131

- 6 -

4. Have fire extinguishing equipment handy for instant use, such as a garden hose, water

pail, sand bucket, or portable fire extinguisher. Be sure you are trained in its use.

5. Do not use equipment beyond its ratings. For example, overloaded welding cable can

overheat and create a fire hazard.

6. After completing work, inspect the work area to make sure there are no hot sparks or hot

metal that could cause a fire later. Use fire watchers when necessary.

7. For additional information refer to NFPA Standard 51B, "“Fire Prevention in Use of

Cutting and Welding Processes", available from the National Fire Protection Association,

Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02269.

ELECTRICAL SHOCK

Contact between live electrical parts and earth can cause severe injury

or death. DO NOT use AC welding current in damp areas, if movement

is confined, or if there is danger of falling. Therefore:

1. Be sure the power source frame (chassis) is connected to the earth system of the input

power.

2. Connect the workpiece to a good electrical earth.

3. Connect the work cable to the workpiece. A poor or missing connection can expose you

or others to a fatal shock.

4. Use well-maintained equipment. Replace worn or damaged cables.

5. Keep everything dry, including clothing, work area, cables, torch/electrode holder and

power source.

6. Make sure that all parts of your body are insulated from the workpiece and from earth.

7. Do not stand directly on metal or the ground while working in tight quarters or a damp

area; stand on dry boards or an insulating platform and wear rubber-soled shoes.

8. Put on dry, hole-free gloves before turning on the power.

9. Turn off the power, before removing your gloves.

10. Refer to ANSI/ASC Standard Z49.1 (listed on next page) for specific earthing

recommendations. Do not mistake the work lead for a earth cable.

ELECTRIC AND MAGNETIC FIELDS

May be dangerous. Electric current flowing through any conductor

causes localised Electric and Magnetic Fields (EMF). Welding and

cutting current creates EMF around welding cables and welding

machines. Therefore:

1. Welders with pacemakers fitted should consult their doctor before welding. EMF may

interfere with some pacemakers.

2. Exposure to EMF may have other health effects which are unknown.

3. Welders should use the following procedures to minimise exposure to EMF:

a) Route the electrode and work cables together. Secure them with tape when possible.

b) Never coil the torch or work cable around your body.

c) Do not place your body between the torch and work cables. Route cables on the

same side of your body.

d) Connect the work cable to the workpiece as close as possible to the area being

welded.

e) Keep the welding power source and cables as far away from your body as possible.

FUMES AND GASES

Fumes and gases, can cause discomfort or harm, particularly in

confined spaces. Do not breathe fumes and gases. Shielding gases

can cause asphyxiation. Therefore:

1. Always provide adequate ventilation in the work area by natural or mechanical means.

Do not weld, cut or gouge on materials such as galvanised steel, stainless steel, copper,

zinc, lead beryllium or cadmium unless positive mechanical ventilation is provided. Do

not breathe in the fumes from these materials.

2. Do not operate near degreasing and spraying operations. The heat or arc can react with

chlorinated hydrocarbon vapours to form phosgene, a highly toxic gas and other irritant

gases.

3. If you develop momentary eye, nose or throat irritation while operating, this is an

indication that the ventilation is not adequate. Stop work and take the necessary steps to

improve ventilation in the work area. Do not continue to operate if physical discomfort

persists.

4. Refer to ANSI/ASC Standard Z49.1 (see listing below) for specific ventilation

recommendations.

5. WARNING: This product when used for welding or cutting, produces fumes or gases that

contain chemicals known to the State of California to cause birth defects and in some

cases cancer (California Health & Safety Code §25249.5 et seq.)

CYLINDER HANDLING

Cylinders, if mishandled, can rupture and violently release gas.

Sudden rupture of cylinder valve or relief device can injure or kill.

Therefore:

1. Use the proper gas for the process and use the proper pressure reducing regulator

designed to operate from the compressed gas cylinder. Do not use adaptors. Maintain

hoses and fittings in good condition. Follow the manufacturer's operating instructions for

mounting a regulator to a compressed gas cylinder.

2. Always secure cylinders in an upright position, by chain or strap, to suitable hand trucks,

undercarriages, benches, wall, post or racks. Never secure cylinders to work tables or

fixtures where they may become part of an electrical circuit.

3. When not in use, keep cylinder valves closed. Have valve protection cap in place if

regulator is not connected. Secure and move cylinders by using suitable hand trucks.

4. Locate cylinders away from heat, sparks and flames. Never strike an arc on a cylinder.

5. For additional information, refer to CGA Standard P-1, "Precautions for Safe Handling of

Compressed Gases in Cylinders", which is available from Compressed Gas Association,

1235 Jefferson Davis Highway, Arlington, VA 22202.
