SHOCK HAZARD
Contact with live electrical parts can cause fatal accidents or serious burns. The electrode work piece circuit is live when
electricity is supplied to the outlet. The supply circuit and the internal circuits of the machine are also live when the current
is switched on. When welding the wire, the feeder, the feeder control panel and any metal parts in contact with the wire are
also live. Equipment that is incorrectly grounded constitutes a danger.
• Do not touch any live part.
• Wear insulated safety gloves that are both dry and without any holes, plus body protection.
• Insulate yourself from the work piece and from the ground with appropriate insulation materiel to prevent any
physical contact with either the work piece or the ground.
• Switch of the electricity supply or stop the machine before carrying out any maintenance on this machine.
• Install and ground this machine correctly and in compliance with the instruction manual and with local, governmental
or national legislation.
• Check the ground of the power supply regularly. Check that the ground wire of the mains cable is correctly connected to the ground terminal in the connection box or that the connector is connected to an output that is correctly
grounded.
• When connecting the input, rst connect the ground. Double check the connections.
• Check the state of the mains lead and the insulation of the wires regularly – replace the lead immediately if it is
damaged as bare wires could cause fatal accidents.
• Switch off the machine when not in use.
• Do not use cables that are worn, damaged, under dimensioned or badly spliced.
• Do not wrap or carry cables around your body.
• If the work piece is to be grounded, ground it with a separate cable – do not use the clamp or the cable of the
work piece.
• Do not touch the electrode if you are in contact with the work piece, the ground or another electrode of another
machine.
• Only use properly maintained equipment. Repair or replace any damaged components immediately. Carry out

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
maintenance work on the machine according to the instructions manual.
• Wear a safety harness when working above ground.
• Anchor all panels and covers solidly.
• Fix the cable to the work piece or work bench with a good metal-on-metal contact as near as possible to the
construction.
WELDING HAZARDS
The RAYS OF THE ARC can burn the eyes and the skin, the NOISE can damage the ears, FLYING SLAG or SPARKS can
damage the eyes.
The welding arc produces intense visible and invisible rays (ultraviolet and infrared) which can burn the eyes and skin. The
noise generated can damage the ears. Metal particle or slag are projected into the air when chipping, grinding and when
joints are cooling.
NOISE
• Wear approved earplugs if the level of noise is high.
RAYS FROM THE ARC
• Wear a welding mask with an appropriate lter screen to protect your eyes and face while welding or watching
(see standards EN 169).
• Wear approved eye-protection goggles that give lateral protection.
• Use screens or barriers to protect observers and ask others not to look at arc.
Wear protective clothing made of appropriate re-proof materiel and protective shoes.
FUMES AND GASES
Welding produces fumes and gases. Inhaling these substances can be damaging to your health.
• Avoid fumes. Do not inhale fumes.
• When working indoors, ventilate the area and / or use fumes evacuation equipment to evacuate welding fumes
and gases.
• If ventilation is insufcient, use an approved air respirator.
• Read the safety recommendations concerning materials (MSDS) and the manufacturer’s instructions concerning
metals, consumables, coverings, cleansers and degreasing agents.
• Only work in conned places if is well ventilated or wearing an air respirator. Have a properly trained supervisor
stand by. Welding fumes and gases can accumulate and starve the atmosphere of oxygen which can lead to
fatal accidents. Check there is no danger in breathing the air.
• Do not weld in areas where others are degreasing, cleaning or spraying. Heat and arc rays can react with other
vapors and form gases which are highly toxic or an irritant.
• Do not weld coated metals such as galvanized steel, lead or cadmium plated metal until the coating has been
removed from the area to be welded. Make sure the area is well ventilated and, if necessary, wear an air respirator.
7
Page 8
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Coatings and the metals they contain can produce toxic fumes when welded.
GAS CYLINDERS
Cylinders of protective welding gas contain gas under pressure. If a cylinder is damaged, it can explode. As cylinders of gas
are part of the welding environment, they should be handled with caution.
• Protect gas cylinders from excessive heat, shock, slag, exposed ames, sparks from the welding arc.
• Store cylinders upright in a stationary rack or cylinder holder so that they cannot fall over.
• Keep cylinders away from welding circuits or any other electrical circuit.
• Never place a welding torch on a gas cylinder.
• A welding electrode should never make contact with a gas cylinder.
• Never weld a pressurised cylinder, there is a risk of explosion.
• Only use protective welding gas cylinders, regulators, hoses and ttings designed for this specic purpose, make
sure they and associated items are in good condition.
• Do not stand in front of the gas outlet when opening the gas valve on a cylinder.
• Keep the valve protection cap in place except when using or connecting the cylinder.
• Read and follow the instructions concerning the use of cylinders of compressed gas and associated equipment and
the other publications listed in the safety standards.
WELDING CAN CAUSE FIRE OR EXPLOSIONS
Welding container-like objects such as tanks, drums or pipelines can cause such objects to burst.
Sparks are projected from the welding arc. The projection of sparks, hot items and hot equipment can cause re and
burns.
Accidental contact of the electrode with metal objects can cause sparks, explosions, overheating or re. Before welding in
such cases, check that there is no danger.
• Protect yourself and others from the projection of sparks and hot metal.
• Do not weld in places where sparks can fall on ammable substances.
• Move ammable substances at least 10.7 metres/35 feet from the welding arc. If this is not possible, cover them
carefully with approved protective covering.
• Sparks and other hot welding matter can propagate from one area to another through small cracks and openings.
• Check for any re that may start and have a re extinguisher to hand.
• Do not weld container-like objects such as tanks, drums or pipelines unless they have been properly prepared.
• Connect the cable to the work piece as near as possible to the welding area to avoid having to feed the current
over long hazardous distances which could cause electrocution or re.
8
Page 9
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
• Do not use welding equipment to defrost frozen pipes.
• When not in use, remove the rod from the electrode holder.
• Wear grease-free clothing such as leather gloves, a heavy shirt, hemless trousers, safety footwear and headgear.
• Before welding, remove all ammable substances from your pockets such as matches or any type of lighter.
EXHAUST FUMES
Exhaust fumes from the motor can cause fatal accidents. Motors emit toxic exhaust.
• Use the equipment outdoors in an open and well ventilated area.
• When using the equipment indoors, evacuate the exhaust fumes well away from any fresh air intake vents.
MOTOR FUEL
• Do not top up with fuel while smoking or when near a source of sparks or a naked ame.
• Do not ll the tank to the brim – leave space for the fuel to expand.
• Stop the motor and let it cool down before checking or topping up with fuel.
• Do not spill fuel. If fuel spills, clean it up before starting the motor.
MOVING ENGINE PARTS
Moving engine parts such as fans, rotors and driving belts can cause serious hand injury. Articles of loose clothing can also
get caught up in them.
• Keep all trap doors, panels, properly in place or closed.
• Only ask qualied personnel to remove the safety devices or other covers in order to carry out when necessary
maintenance work or repairs.
• To avoid the motor accidentally starting while carrying out maintenance work or repairs, disconnect the cable from
the negative (-) terminal of the battery.
• Keep hands, hair, loose clothing and tools away from engine parts.
• After maintenance work or repairs, replace all trap doors, panels, covers and other protective devices before
starting the motor.
SPARKS
Sparks can ignite BATTERY GASES and cause explosions, BATTERY ACID can cause burns to the eyes and skin.
Batteries contain acid that give of explosive gases.
• Always wear a protective screen over the face when working on the battery.
• Stop the motor before connecting or disconnecting the cables from the battery terminals.
• Avoid making sparks with tools while working on the batter Do not us welding equipment to other fast-starting
equipment
