3.Avoid eye and body damage. Arc rays and infrared radiation can injure eyes and burn skin. Wear ANSI approved eye and body protection. Do not allow viewing by visitors without proper eye and body protection. Use the provided Face Shield with arc shaded filter plate.
4.Know proper arc welding practices. Read and understand the manufacturer’s instructions, as well as your employer’s safety practices for arc welding.
5.Connect only to a code approved power source. Connect only to a grounding power source conforming to the National Electrical Code and Local Codes.
6.Avoid fire and explosion. Remove flammable and explosive material from at least 35 feet from the welding arc to prevent welding sparks or molten metal from starting a fire. Keep a type ABC fire extinguisher within easy reach. Thoroughly clean the object being welded of any paint, grease, or other foreign material.
7.Avoid being burned. Always wear ANSI approved welding gear: leather gloves, leather apron, and shoes.
