Safety Warnings and Precautions (continued)
4. Keep children away. Children must never be allowed in the work area. Do not let them
handle machines, tools, or extension cords.
5. Store idle equipment. When not in use, tools must be stored in a dry location to inhibit
rust. Always lock up tools and keep out of reach of children.
6. Use the right tool for the job. Do not attempt to force a small tool or attachment to do the
work of a larger industrial tool. There are certain applications for which this tool was
designed. Do not modify this tool and do not use this tool for a purpose for which it was
not intended.
7. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry as they can be caught in moving
parts. Protective gear is essential to protect against welding rays, some examples are: a
leather welding apron, welding sleeves, jeans without cuffs, work boots. Wear restrictive
hair covering to contain long hair.

9. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Do not reach over or
across running machines.
10. Stay alert. Watch what you are doing, use common sense. Do not operate any tool when
you are tired.
11. Check for damaged parts. Before using any tool, any part that appears damaged should
be carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly and perform its intended
function. Check for alignment and binding of moving parts; any broken parts or mounting
fixtures; and any other condition that may affect proper operation. Any part that is damaged
should be properly repaired or replaced by a qualified technician. Do not use the tool if
any switch does not operate properly.

parts. Use of any other parts can render helmet ineffective, possibly causing eye damage,
and will void the warranty. Only use accessories intended for use with this tool. Approved
