•
The immunity of other equipment in the environment. The user must ensure that other
equipment used in the environment is compatible. This may require additional protection
measures.
•
The time of day when the welding, and other activities will take place.
•
The size of the surrounding area to be considered will depend on the structure of the building and
the other activities that take place at the same time. The surrounding area may extend beyond
the boundaries of the work area.
ENVIRONMENT.
•
Arc welding produces sparks, melted metal projection and smoke. Remove all flammable
substances and/or materials from the work area.
•
Always ensure good ventilation at the place of welding.
•
Do not weld on containers, recipients or pipes that contain gas or have contained flammable,
liquid or gaseous products (danger of explosion and/or fire), nor on materials polished with
chlorinated or varnished solvents (danger of toxic smoke emanation).
PERSONNEL.
•
Avoid direct contact with the welding circuit; the open circuit voltage, present between the
electrode holder clamp and the ground clamp, could be dangerous in such circumstances.
•
Do not use the machine in damp, wet or rainy environments.
•
Protect your eyes, using appropriate inactinic crystals mounted on the corresponding mask. Wear
gloves and protective clothing dry and free of oils, avoiding exposing the skin to ultraviolet rays
produced by the arc.
REMEMBER.
•
Luminous radiations produced by the arc may damage the eyes and cause skin burns.
•
Arc welding produces sparks and drops of melted metal. The welded metal (work) becomes red
and burns at high temperature, for a relatively long period of time.
•
Arc welding produces smoke, which can be potentially harmful.
•
All electric shocks can be potentially high.
•
Avoid exposing yourself directly to the electric arc within a radius of less than 15 meters
•
Also protect nearby people with appropriate means against the potentially dangerous effects of
the arc.
OPERATOR PROTECTION.
•
Operator's clothing must be dry and free of oils.
•
Do not climb or lean on the work pieces when the power supply is on.
•
To prevent electric shock, do not work in wet or damp environments without adequate protective
clothing.
•
Check welding and power cables and replace immediately in case of damaged cables.
•
Disconnect power before carrying out any equipment maintenance work.
•
To avoid any risk of accidental short circuit or ignition of the arc, do not place the electrode holder
directly on the workbench or any metal surface connected to the ground clamp of the machine.
WARNING: Electromagnetic fields generated by high welding currents can cause the malfunction of
vital electronic devices.
