S2 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

CAUTION

•  Fluid spilled on the skin should be washed off as soon 

as practical. 

•  Material Safety Data Sheet is available for all chemicals 

and should be read before use.

•  The brush gets extremely hot, around 392°F degrees 

Fahrenheit. Be very careful touching the brush. Do not 
place the brush near any flammable materials.

•  The TIG Brush produces an electric current which may 

generate small sparks between the brush and the metal 
being cleaned. 

•  Hydrogen gas may also be generated (which is an 

invisible but explosive gas). Always use the apparatus 
in a well ventilated area. Do not use near flammable 
substances, or in areas where dense flammable gases 
(such as petrol vapor) may accumulate.

•  The TIG Brush TBE-160CM uses 110V AC only. Do 

not use with any other voltage. If the power cord is 
damaged or if the TIG Brush has been dropped from a 
height and damaged, do not use the unit. Contact your 
TIG Brush supplier to have the TIG Brush inspected  
and repaired.

•  Do not short out the terminals, or use the TIG Brush with 

a damaged wand or cables. Doing so may permanently 
damage the TIG Brush and cause damage to the 
workpiece being cleaned. The high currents involved 
may also cause intense heating of the shorted or 
damaged part, which could result in burns to  
the operator.

•  Ensure that the TIG Brush is located where it cannot 

easily fall and cause injury. Ensure that the cables do 
not present a trip hazard.
