Safety Warnings
for Welders
Protection Equipment
WARNING • Wear a welder helmet to protect your
eyes and face when working with the equipment. Assure
the helmet shadow lens is the right one for the cutting process
Using shadow 6 and / or 7 is recommended.
CAUTION • Use special hide gloves specially designed
for cutting as well as dungarees and leather spats.
• Wear robust material clothes and long sleeves made of fire-resistant
materials, such as wool or hide.
• Use special screens or curtains to insulate the work place to protect
the passersby from sparks, flare and slag generated during the cutting
process.
• The bench or work table where the work piece rest shall have
orifices or slots that will easily let got through residues originated in
the cutting process.
To Prevent Electric Shock
CAUTION
• Double check the input and output cable are
securely connected and in good repair (check and eliminate any
possibility of short circuit).
CAUTION
• Confirm the equipment ground
connection is reliable.
CAUTION • The welding power sources are not adequate for
using in rain or snow.
• Keep yourself insulated from the work piece and
CAUTION
ground, stepping on insulated and dry mats.
DANGER • For no reason at all touch both poles in the
equipment circuit (torch electrode and work piece).
WARNING
• Do not try to adjust the equipment current when
cutting.
CAUTION
• Connect the ground clamp to the work piece as
close as possible from the cutting zone to prevent the current flowing
long distances and eliminate the possibility of a short circuit.
WARNING • Before operating the equipment, the work piece
shall make contact with the ground connection clamp. do not
disconnect until finishing the cut. otherwise the user may receive an
electric discharge and severe injuries.
WARNING • Disconnect the equipment from the power source
before carrying out maintenance.
WARNING • Electric shock risk! An electric shock caused by the
torch may cause death!
To Prevent Health Risks
WARNING
• Vapors and gasses produced while cutting are
hazardous to your health. Work in ventilated areas or using
adequate ventilation systems.
• Do not breath in smoke or gases produced in
WARNING
the cutting process. Keep head away from fumes.
• If ventilation is poor, wear an adequate
DANGER
autonomous breathing devise. Protection gases generated while
cutting may displace air and cause fatal accidents.
• Do not operate the equipment close to
CAUTION
degreasers, cleaner or aerosol cans. Heat and radiation generated
by the cutting process may react with vapors and form toxic gas.
CAUTION • Prevent cutting lead, zinc or cadmium covered
metal. These materials generate toxic gases. Remove the covering
out from the cutting area, make sure the area is well ventilated or
use an adequate autonomous breathing device.
To Prevent Fire
CAUTION
• Always have a fire extinguisher handy.
WARNING • There shall be no flammable or
explosive material in the work area (not less than 36 ft away).
Do not cut in places where the sparks may reach of fall on
flammable or explosive materials.
WARNING
• Sparks produced while cutting may cause
explosion or fire.
To Prevent Injuries and Accidents
WARNING • Risk generated by the arc:
Arc radiation may burn eyes and damage skin.
Wear protection helmet and safety goggles.
Use ears protection and protective clothes that cover skin up to the
neck. Wear complete body protection garments.
WARNING • Risk produced by electro-magnetic field:
Cutting current produces an electro-magnetic field.
The operator shall not use the power source if having medical
implants. Never roll the equipment cables around the body. Place
together and parallel both cables connected to the equipment so that
the fields of each one will counteract.
• Never allow unexperienced people dismount or
CAUTION
regulate the equipment.
• Double check that both the operator and the
WARNING
equipment are away from the sparks flow and residues originated
during the cutting process.
• The cutter shall be operated in a place that is protected from sun
and rain, away from places where violent vibrations occur.
• The cutter shall be stored away in a humidity free area with -13 °F
to 131 °F temperature range.
• To prevent rollover, the equipment shall be inclined
CAUTION
10° maximum.
• There shall be 12" space around the equipment to receive good
ventilation.
WARNING • Environment temperature range when cutting:
14 °F a 104 °F
• Make sure no foreign metal object is inside the
CAUTION
equipment.
• Any problem with the equipment the operator
WARNING
cannot solve making adjustments for a good cutting process shall be
solved in a
reason at all the operator shall try to open the equipment cover to
carry out any type of maintenance.
• Never point the torch nowhere in your body.
• Do not touch the work piece while cutting.
• Do not fold the torch cable. It damages the air hose.
• Nobody but the operator shall have access to the work site.
• Always turn down the power supply before carrying out repairs,
moving the machine or install accessories (torch, electrode, nozzle,
ground clamp, etc.).
• Never remove slag from the torch hitting a hard object.
