helmet and replace any cracked or broken filter lenses IMMEDIATELY.

Do not allow the uninsulated portion

of the wire feed gun to touch the ground clamp or grounded work to prevent an arc flash from being

created on contact.

Provide bystanders with shields or helmets fitted with a #10 shade filter lens.

Wear protective clothing. The intense light of the welding arc can burn the skin in much the same way as the sun, even through light-weight clothing. Wear dark clothing of heavy material. The shirt worn should be long sleeved and the collar kept buttoned to protect chest and neck. Protectagainst REFLECTEDARC RAYS. Arc rays can be reflectedoff shiny surfaces such as a glossy paintedsurface, aluminum,stainlesssteel, and glass. It is possiblefor your eyes to be injured by reflectedarc rays even when wearing a protectivehelmet or shield. If weldingwith a reflectivesurface behind you, arc rays can bounce off the surface,then off the filter lens on the inside of your helmet or shield, then into your eyes. If a reflective backgroundexists in your welding area, either remove it or cover it with something non-flammableand non-reflective. Reflectivearc rays can also cause skin burn in additionto eye injury.

FIRE HAZARDS

WARNING

FIRE OR EXPLOSION CAN CAUSE

DEATH, INJURY, AND PROPERTY DAM-

AGE! To reduce the risk of death, injury, or

property damage from fire or explosion, read, understand, and follow the following safety instructions. In addition, make certain that

anyone else that uses this welding equip- ment, or is a bystander in the welding area, understands and follows these safety instructions as well. REMEMBER!

Arc welding by nature produces sparks, hot spatter, molten metal drops, hot slag, and hot metal parts that can start fires, burn skin, and damage eyes.

•Do not wear gloves or other clothing that contains oil, grease, or other

flammable substances.

•Do not wear flammable hair

preparations.

Do not weld in an area until it is checked and cleared of combustible and/or flammable materials. BE AWARE that sparks and slag can fly 35 feet and can

pass through small cracks.and openings. If work and combustibles cannot be

separated by a minimum of 35 feet, protect against ignition with suitable, snug-fitting, fire resistant, covers or shields.

•Do not weld on walls until checking for

and removing combustibles touching the other side of the walls.

•Do not weld, cut, or perform other such work on used barrels, drums, tanks, or other containers that had contained a flammable or toxic substance. The techniques for removing flammable sub- stance and vapors, to make a used container safe for welding or cutting, are quite complex and require special education and training.

Do not strike an arc on a compressed gas or air cylinder or other pressure vessel. Doing so will create a brittle area that can result in a violent rupture immediately or at a later time as a result of rough handling.

Do not weld or cut in an area where the air may contain flammable dust (such as grain dust), gas, or liquid vapors (such as gasoline).

Do not handle hot metal, such as the work piece or electrode stubs, with bare hands.

•Wear leather gloves, heavy long sleeve shirt, cuffless trousers, high-topped shoes, helmet, and cap. As necessary, use additional protective clothing such as leather jacket or sleeves, fire resistant leggings, or apron. Hot sparks or metal can lodge in rolled up sleeves, trouser cuffs, or pockets. Sleeves and collars

should be kept buttoned and pockets eliminated from the shirt front.

Have fire extinguisher equipment handy for immediate user A portable chemical

fire extinguisher, type ABC, is recommended.

Wear ear plugs when welding overhead
