Plastics Health Notice

Before using any Dukane welding system, be sure you are familiar with OSHA regulations from the U.S. Department of Labor about the particular type of plastic(s) you are using.

When plastic materials are being processed, some of them may emit fumes and/or vapors that could be hazardous (e.g. PVC – Polyvinyl Chloride can emit chlorine gas under certain processing conditions). Make sure you use proper ventilation whenever these plastics are processed.

Run Switches

The dual finger run switches comply with OSHA safety regulations. Using a foot switch in place of the dual finger run switches violates OSHA regulations.

General Safety

Before performing any maintenance or service on the Dual Servo Spin Welder, locks and tags should be applied to all energy isolating switches. Anything that might restore energy to the welder must be locked out.

You may be required to add accessories to bring the system into compliance with applicable regulations for operator safety. In the United Sates, these regulations are administered by OSHA.
