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.
8. Use eye and ear protection. When welding, wear ANSI-approved impact
safety goggles under the Auto-Darkening Welding Helmet. Wear a NIOSHapproved respirator and hearing protection when welding.
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.
12. Replacement parts and accessories. When servicing, use only identical replacement
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
accessories are available from Harbor Freight Tools.
13. Do not operate tool if under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Read warning labels
on prescriptions to determine if your judgment or reflexes are impaired while taking drugs.
If there is any doubt, do not operate the tool.
14. Maintenance. For your safety, service and maintenance should be performed regularly
only by a qualified technician.
15. People with pacemakers should consult their physician(s) before welding.
Electromagnetic fields (such as those caused by welding) in close proximity to a heart
pacemaker could cause interference to or failure of the pacemaker.
