Wear suitable protective flame resistant clothing. The sparks and spatter from welding, hot work
pieces, and hot equipment can cause fires and burns
Welding on closed containers, such as tanks, drums, or pipes, can cause them to explode.
Accidental contact of electrode to metal objects can cause arcs, explosion, overheating, or fire.
Check and be sure the area is safe and clear of inflammable material before carrying out any
welding.
Protection from moving parts
When the machine is in operation, keep away from moving parts such as motors and fans. Moving
parts, such as the fan, may cut fingers and hands and snag garments.
Protections and coverings may be removed for maintenance and controls only by qualified
personnel, after first disconnecting the power supply cable.
Replace the coverings and protections and close all doors when the intervention is finished, and
before starting the equipment.
Take care to avoid getting fingers trapped when loading and feeding wire during set up and
operation.
When feeding wire be careful to avoid pointing it at other people or toward your body.
Always ensure machine covers and protective devices are in operation.
Precautions against fire and explosion
Fire and explosion can be caused by hot slag, sparks, or the plasma arc.
Avoid causing fires due to sparks and hot waste or molten metal
Ensure that appropriate fire safety devices are available near the cutting / welding area.
Remove all flammable and combustible materials from the cutting / welding zone and
surrounding areas
Do not cut/weld fuel and lubricant containers, even if empty. These must be carefully cleaned
before they can be cut/welded.
Always allow the cut/welded material to cool before touching it or placing it in contact with
combustible or flammable material.
Do not work in atmospheres with high concentrations of combustible fumes, flammable gases
and dust.
Always check the work area half an hour after cutting to make sure that no fires have begun
Ventilate all flammable or explosive vapors from the workplace.
Do not cut or weld on containers that may have held combustibles.
Provide a fire watch when working in an area where fire hazards may exist.
Hydrogen gas may be formed and trapped under aluminum workpieces when they are cut
underwater or while using a water table. DO NOT cut aluminum alloys underwater or on a water
table unless the hydrogen gas can be eliminated or dissipated. Trapped hydrogen gas that is
ignited will cause an explosion.
Risks due to magnetic fields
The magnetic fields created by high currents may affect the operation of pacemakers or
electronically controlled medical equipment.
Wearers of vital electronic equipment should consult their physician before beginning any arc
welding, cutting, gouging or spot welding operations.
Do not go near welding equipment with any sensitive electronic equipment as the magnetic fields
may cause damage.
