INTRODUCTION

-

We

learn

by

experience.

Learning

safety

through

personal

experience,

like

a

child

touching

a

hot

stove

is

harmful,

wasteful,

and

un

wise.

Let

the

experience

of

others

teach

you.

Safe

practices

developed

from

experience

in

the

use

of

welding

and

cutting

are

described

in

this

manual.

Research,

development,

and

field

experience

have



evolved

reliable

equipment

and

safe

installation,

opera-



tion,

and

servicing

practices.

Accidents

occur

when

equipment

is

improperly

used

or

maintained.

The

reason

for

the

safe

practices

may

not

always

be

given.

Some

are

based

on

common

sense,

others

may

require

technical

volumes

to

explain.

It

is

wiser

to

follow

the

rules.

Read

and

understand

these

safe

practices

before

at

tempting

to

install,

operate,

or

service

the

equipment.

Comply

with these

procedures

as

applicable

to

the

par

ticular

equipment

used

and

their

instruction

manuals,

for

personal

safety

and

for

the

safety

of

others.

Failure

to

observe

these

safe

practices

may

cause

serious

injury

or

death.

When

safety

becomes

a

habit,

the

equipment

can

be

used

with

confidence.

These

safe

practices

are

divided

into

two

Sections:

1

-

General

Precautions,

common

to

arc

welding

and

cutting;

and

2

-

Arc

Welding

(and

Cutting)

(only).

Reference

standards:

Published

Standards

on

safety

are

also

available

for

additional

and

more

complete

pro

cedures

than

those

given

in

this

manual.

They

are

listed

in

the

Standards

Index

in

this

manual.

ANSI

Z49.1

is

the

most

complete.

The

National

Electrical

Code,

Occupational

Safety

and

Health

Administration,

local

industrial

codes,

and

local

inspection

requirements

also

provide

a

basis

for

equip

ment

installation,

use,

and

service.

GENERAL

PRECAUTIONS

Different

arc

welding

processes,

electrode

alloys,

and

fluxes

can

produce

different

fumes,

gases,

and

levels.

In

to

the

information

In

this

manual,

be

sure

to

consult

flux

and

olec

for

specific

technical

data

and

concerning

their

C.

Fire

and

Explosion

Prevention

Causes

of

fire

and

explosion

are:

combustibles

reached

by

the

arc,

flame,

flying

sparks,

hot

slag

or

heated

material;

misuse

of

compressed

gases

and

cylinders;

and

short

circuits.

BE

AWARE

THAT

flying

sparks

or

falling

slag

can

pass

through

cracks,

along

pipes,

through

windows

or

doors,

and

through

wall

or

floor

openings,

out

of

sight

of

the

goggled

operator.

Sparks

and

slag

can

fly

35

feet.

To

prevent

fires

and

explosion:

Keep

equipment

clean

and

operable,

free

of

oil,

grease,

and

(in

electrical

parts)

of

metallic

particles

that

can

cause

short

circuits.

If

combustibles

are

in

area,

do

NOT

weld

or

cut.

Move

the

work

if

practicable,

to

an

area

free of

combustibles.

Avoid

paint

spray

rooms,

dip

tanks,

storage

areas,

yen

tilators.

If

the

work

cannot

be

moved,

move

com

bustibles

at

least

35

feet

away

out

of

reach

of

sparks

and

heat;

or

protect

against

ignition

with

suitable

and

snug-fitting,

fire-resistant

covers

or

shields.

Walls

touching

combustibles

on

opposite

sides

should

not

be

welded

on

(or

cut).

Walls,

ceilings,

and

floor

near

work

should

be

protected

by

heat-resistant

covers

or

shields.

Fire

watcher

must

be

standing

by

with

suitable

fire

ex

tinguishing

equipment

during

and

for

some

time

after

welding

or

cutting

if:

a.

appreciable

combustibles

(including

building

construction)

are

within

35

feet

b.

appreciable

combustibles

are

further

than

35

feet

but

can

be

ignited

by

sparks

c.

openings

(concealed

or

visible)

in

floors

or

walls

within

35

feet

may

expose

com

bustibles

to

sparks

d.

combustibles

adjacent

to

walls,

ceilings,

roofs,

or

metal

partitions

can

be

ignited

by

radiant

or

conducted

heat.

Hot

work

permit

should

be

obtained

before

operation

to

ensure

supervisors

approval

that

adequate

precautions

have

been

taken.

After

work

is

done,

check

that

area

is

free of

sparks,

glowing

embers,

and

flames.

An

empty

container

that

held

combustibles,

or

that

can

produce

flammable

or

toxic

vapors

when

heated,

must

never

be

welded

on

regulators.

Stand

to

side

of

regulator

while

opening

valve.

Open

cylinder

valve

slowly

so

that

regulator

pressure

in

creases

slowly.

When

gauge

is

pressurized

(gauge

regulator

maximum)

leave

cylinder

valve

in

following

position:

For

oxygen,

and

inert

gases,

open

fully

to

seal

stem

against

possible

leak.

For

fuel

gas,

open

to

less

than

one

turn

to

permit

quick

emergency

shutoff.

Use

pressure

charts

(available

from

your

supplier)

for

safe

settings

on

regulators.

Check

for

leaks

on

Keep

body

and

clothing

dry.

Never

work

in

against

electrical

shock.

Stay

on

a

dry

duckboard,

or

INSTALLATION

3-1.

LOCATION

(Figure

3-1)

-

A

proper

installation

site

should

be

selected

for

the

welding

power

source

if

the

unit

is

to

provide

dependable

service,

and

remain

relatively

maintenance

free.

A

proper

installation

site

permits

freedom

of

air

move

ment

into

and

out

of

the

welding

power

source,

and

also

east

subjects

the

unit

to

dust,

dirt,

moisture,

and

corrosive

vapors.

A

minimum

of

18

inches

(457

mm)

of

unrestricted

space

must

be

maintained

between

the

welding

power

source

front

and

rear

panels

and

the

nearest

obstruction.

Also,

the

underside

of

the

welding

power

source

must

be

kept

completely

free

of

obstruc

tions.

The

installation

site

should

also

permit

easy

removal

of

the

welding

power

source

outer

enclosure

for

maintenance

functions.

IMPORTANT

__________

Do

not

p/ace

any

filtering

device

over

the

intake

air

passages

of

the

welding

power

source

as

this

would

restrict

the

volume

of

intake

air

and

thereby

subject

the

welding

power

source

internal

components

to

an

overheating

condition

and

subsequent

failure.

Warranty

is

void

if

any

type

of

filtering

device

is

used.

Holes

are

provided

in

the

welding

power

source

base

for

mounting

purposes.

Figure

3-1

gives

overall

dimensions

and

the

base

CAUTION

1.

It

is

recommended

that

the

welding

cables

be

kept

as

short

as

possible,

be

placed

close

together,

and

be

of

adequate

current

carrying

capacity.

The

resistance

of

the

welding

cables

and

connections

causes

a

voltage

drop

which

is

added

to

the

voltage

of

the

arc.

Excessive

cable

resistance

may

result

in

overloading

as

well

as

reducing

the

maximum

current

output

capability

of

this

unit.

Proper

operation

is

to

a

great

extent

dependent

on

the

use

of

welding

cables

and

con

nections

that

are

in

good

condition

and

of

ade

quate

size.

2.

Use

Table

3-2

as

a

guide

for

selecting

cable

size

for

the

anticipated

maximum

weld

current

which

will

be

used.

Table

3-2

shows

total

cable

length

from

the

welding

power

source

to

the

resistance

grid

welding

station.

Select

the

size

cable

that

is

recommended

for

the

maximum

weld

current

that

is

to

be

used.

3.

Do

not

use

damaged

or

frayed

cables.

4.

Use

correct

lugs

on

the

weld

cables

to

connect

them

to

the

weld

output

terminals.

5.

Ensure

that

all

connections

are

clean

and

tight.
