SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Safety Precautions
WARNING: These Safety Precautions are for your
protection. They summarize precaution­ary information from the references listed in Additional Safety Information
section. Before performing any installa­tion or operating procedures, be sure to read and follow the safety precautions listed below as well as all other manuals, material safety data sheets, labels, etc. Failure to observe Safety Precautions can result in injury or death.
PROTECT YOURSELF AND OTHERS -­Some welding, cutting, and gouging processes are noisy and require ear protection. The arc, like the sun, e mits
ultraviolet (UV) and other radiation and can injure skin and eyes. Hot metal can cause burns. Training in the proper use of the processes and equipment is essential to prevent accidents. Therefore:
1. Always wear safety glasses with side shields in
any work area, even if welding helmets, face shields, and goggles are also required.
2. Use a face shield tted with the correct lter and
cover plates to protect your eyes, face, neck, and ears from sparks and rays of the arc when oper­ating or observing operations. Warn bystanders not to watch the arc and not to expose themselves to the rays of the electric-arc or hot metal.
3. Wear ameproof gauntlet type gloves, heavy
long-sleeve shirt, cuess trousers, high -topped shoes, and a welding helmet or cap for hair protection, to protect against arc rays and hot sparks or hot metal. A ameproo f apron may also be desirable as protection against radiated heat and sparks.
4. Hot sparks or metal can lodge in rolled up sle eves,
trouser cus, or pockets. Sleeves and collars should be kept buttoned, and open pockets eliminated from the front of clothing.
5. Protect other personnel from arc rays and hot
sparks with a suitable non-ammable partition or curtains.
6. Use goggles over safety glasses when chipping
slag or grinding. Chipped slag may be hot and can y far. Bystanders should also wear goggles over safety glasses.
Safety - English
FIRES AND EXPLOSIONS -- Heat from ames and arcs can start res. Hot slag or sparks can also cause res and explosions. Therefore:
1. Remove all combustible materials well away from the work area or cover the materials with a pro­tective non-ammable covering. Combustible materials include wood, cloth, sawdust, liquid and gas fuels, solvents, paints and coatings, paper, etc.
2. Hot sparks or hot metal can fall through cracks or crevices in oors or wall openings and cause a hidden smoldering re or res on the oor below. Make certain that such openings are protected from hot sparks and metal.“
3. Do not weld, cut or perform other hot work until the work piece has been completely cleaned so that there are no substances on the work piece which might produce ammable or toxic vapors. Do not do hot work on closed containers. They may explode.
4. Have re extinguishing equipment handy for instant use, such as a garden hose, water pail, sand bucket, or portable re extinguisher. Be sure you are trained in its use.
5. Do not use equipment beyond its ratings. For example, overloaded welding cable can overheat and create a re hazard.
6. After completing operations, inspect the work area to make certain there are no hot sparks or hot metal which could cause a later re. Use re watchers when necessary.
7. For additional information, refer to NFPA Stan­dard 51B, "Fire Prevention in Use of Cutting and Welding Processes", available from the National Fire Protection Association, Batter y march Park, Quincy, MA 02269.
ELECTRICAL SHOCK -- Contact with live electrical parts and ground can cause severe injury or death. DO
NOT use AC welding current in damp areas, if movement is conned, or if there is danger of falling.
5
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
1. Be sure the power source frame (chassis) is con­nected to the ground system of the input power.
2. Connect the work piece to a good electrical ground.
3. Connect the work cable to the work piece. A poor or missing connection can expose you or others to a fatal shock.
4. Use well-maintained equipment. Replace worn or damaged cables.
5. Keep everything dry, including clothing, work area, cables, torch/electrode holder, and power source.
6. Make sure that all parts of your body are insulated from work and from ground.
7. Do not stand directly on metal or the earth while working in tight quarters or a damp area; stand on dry boards or an insulating platform and wear rubber-soled shoes.
8. Put on dry, hole-free gloves before turning on the power.
3. Welders should use the following procedures to minimize exposure to EMF:
A. Route the electrode and work cables together.
Secure them with tape when possible.
B. Never coil the torch or work cable around your
body.
C. Do not place your body between the torch and
work cables. Route cables on the same side of your body.
D. Connect the work cable to the work piece as close
as possible to the area being welded.
E. Keep welding power source and cables as far
away from your body as possible.
FUMES AND GASES -- Fumes and gases, can cause discomfort or harm, particularly in conned spaces. Do not breathe fumes and gases. Shield­ing gases can cause asphyxiation.
Therefore:
9. Turn o the power before removing your gloves.
10. Refer to ANSI/ASC Standard Z49.1 (listed on next page) for specic grounding recommenda­tions. Do not mistake the work lead for a ground cable.
ELECTRIC AND MAGNETIC FIELDS — May be dangerous. Electric cur­rent owing through any conduc­tor causes localized Electric and
Magnetic Fields (EMF). Welding and cutting current creates EMF around welding cables and welding machines. Therefore:
1. Welders having pacemakers should consult their
physician before welding. EMF may interfere with some pacemakers.
2. Exposure to EMF may have other health eects which
are unknown.
1. Always provide adequate ventilation in the work area by natural or mechanical means. Do not weld, cut, or gouge on materials such as galvanized steel, stain­less steel, copper, zinc, lead, beryllium, or cadmium unless positive mechanical ventilation is provided. Do not breathe fumes from these materials.
2. Do not operate near degreasing and spraying opera­tions. The heat or arc rays can react with chlorinated hydrocarbon vapors to form phosgene, a highly toxic gas, and other irritant gases.
3. If you develop momentary eye, nose, or throat ir­ritation while operating, this is an indication that ventilation is not adequate. Stop work and take necessary steps to improve ventilation in the work area. Do not continue to operate if physical discom­fort persists.
4. Refer to ANSI/ASC Standard Z49.1 (see listing below) for specic ventilation recommendations.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Hydrogen explosion hazard! Read the following before attempting
DANGER
A hazard exists whenever a water table is used with plasma arc cutting. Severe explosions have resulted from the ac­cumulation of hydrogen beneath the plate being cut. Thousands of dollars in property damage have been caused by these explosions. Personal injury or death could result from such an explosion.
The best available information indicates that three possible sources of hydrogen exists in water tables:
1. Molten Metal Reaction
Most of the hydrogen is liberated by a fast reaction of molten metal from the kerf in the water to form metallic ox-
ides. This reaction explains why reactive metals with greater anity for oxygen, such as aluminum and magnesium, release greater volumes of hydrogen during the cut than does iron or steel. Most of this hydrogen will come to the surface immediately, but some will cling to small metallic particles. These particles will settle to the bottom of the water table and the hydrogen will gradually bubble to the surface.
2. Slow Chemical Reaction
Hydrogen may also result from the slower chemical reactions of cold metal particles with the water, dissimilar metals,
or chemicals in the water. The hydrogen gradually bubbles to the surface.
to cut when using a water table.
3. Plasma & Shield Gas
Hydrogen or other fuel gases, such as Methane (CH4), may come from the plasma or shield gas. H-35 is a commonly
used plasma gas. This gas is 35% hydrogen by volume. When using H-35 at high currents, as much as 125 cfh of hydrogen will be released.
Regardless of the source, the hydrogen gas can collect in pockets formed by the plate being cut and slats on the
table, or pockets from warped plate. There can also be accumulation of hydrogen under the slag tray or even in the air reservoir, if these are part of the table design. The hydrogen, in the presence of oxygen or air, can then be ignited by the plasma arc or a spark from any source.
4. Follow these practices to reduce hydrogen generation and accumulation:
A. Clean the slag (especially ne particles) from the bottom of the table frequently. Rell the table with clean water. B. Do not leave plates on the table overnight or a weekend. C. If a water table has been unused for several hours, vibrate it in some way before the rst plate is laid in position.
This will allow accumulated hydrogen in the refuse to break loose and dissipate before it is conned by a plate on the table. This might be accomplished by laying the rst plate onto the table with a slight jolt, then raising
the plate to permit hydrogen to escape before it is nally set down for cutting. D. If cutting above water, install fans to circulate air between the plate and the water surface. E. If cutting underwater, agitate the water under the plate to prevent accumulation of hydrogen. This can be done
by aerating the water using compressed air. F. If possible, change the level of the water between cuts to dissipate accumulated hydrogen. G. Maintain pH level of the water near 7 (neutral). This reduces the rate of chemical reaction between water and
metals.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Possible explosion hazard from plasma cutting aluminum-lithium alloys!
Aluminum-Lithium (Al-Li) alloys are used in the aerospace industry because of 10% weight savings over conventional aluminum alloys. It has been reported that molten Al-Li alloys can cause explosions when they come into contact with water. Therefore, plasma cutting of these alloys should not be attempted in the presence of water. These alloys should only be dry cut on a dry table. Alcoa has determined that "dry" cutting on a dry table is safe and gives good cutting results. DO NOT dry cut over water. DO NOT water injection cut.
WARNING
The following are some of the Al-Li alloys currently available: Alithlite (Alcoa) X8192 (Alcoa) Alithally (Alcoa) Navalite (U. S. Navy) 2090 Alloy (Alcoa) Lockalite (Lockhead) X8090A (Alcoa) Kalite (Kaiser) X8092 (Alcoa) 8091 (Alcan)
For additional details and information on the safe use from the hazards associated with these alloys, contact your aluminum supplier.
