  Never use an electric arc welder to thaw frozen pipes.
 
Flying sparks and hot metal can  
  cause injury. As welds cool, slag 
can be thrown off. Take all precautions described in this 
manual to reduce the possibility of injury from flying 
sparks and hot metal.
  Wear ANSI compliant face shield or safety glasses with side 
shield protection when chipping or grinding metal parts.
  Wear ear plugs when welding overhead to prevent spatter or 
slag from falling into ears.
 Electric 
arc welding operations  
  produce intense light and heat 
and ultraviolet (UV) rays. This intense light and UV rays 
can cause injury to eyes and skin. Take all precautions 
described in this manual to reduce the possibility of injury 
to eyes and skin.
  All persons operating this equipment or in the area while 
equipment is in use must wear protective welding gear 
including: welding helmet or shield with at least shade 10, 
flame resistant clothing, leather welding gloves, and full foot 
protection.
 
Never look at arc welding operations without 
  eye protection as described above. Never use a 
shade filter lens that is cracked, broken, or rated below number 10. 
Warn others in the area not to look at the arc.
 Electric arc welding operations  
  cause sparks and heat metal to 
temperatures that can cause severe burns! Use protective 
gloves and clothing when performing any metal working 
operation. Take all precautions described in this manual to 
reduce the possibility of skin and clothing burns.
  Make sure that all persons in the welding area are protected 
from heat, sparks, and ultraviolet rays. Use additional face 
shields and flame resistant barriers as needed.
  Never touch work pieces until completely cooled.
 Heat and sparks produced during  
 electric arc welding and other metal 
working operations can ignite flammable and explosive 
materials! Take all precautions described in this manual to 
reduce the possibility of flames and explosions.
  Remove fire hazards from the welding area. If this is not 
possible, cover them to prevent the welding sparks from 
starting a fire. Welding sparks and hot materials from 
welding can easily go through small cracks and openings to 
adjacent areas. Avoid welding near hydraulic lines. Have a fire 
extinguisher readily available.
  Take precautions to be sure that flying sparks and heat do not 
cause flames in hidden areas, cracks, behind bulkheads, etc.
 
Fire and explosion hazard!   
  Do not weld on containers or pipes 
that contained flammable / combustible materials or gases.
 Arc welding closed cylinders or 
  containers such as tanks or drums 
can cause explosion if not properly vented! Verify that 
any cylinder or container to be welded has an adequate 
ventilation hole, so that expanding gases can be released.
 
Do not breathe fumes that are  
  produced by the arc welding 
operation. These fumes are dangerous. If the welding area 
cannot be adequately ventilated, be sure to use an air-
supplied respirator.
  Keep your head out of the welding fumes.
  Do not perform electric arc welding operations on metals 
that are galvanized or cadmium plated, or contain zinc, 
mercury, or beryllium without completing the following 
precautions:
a.  Remove the coating from the base metal.
b. Make sure that the welding area is well ventilated.
c.  Use an air-supplied respirator.
Extremely toxic fumes are created when these metals are heated.
  
The electromagnetic field that is 
  generated during arc welding may 
interfere with the operation of various electrical and 
electronic devices such as cardiac pacemakers. Persons 
using such devices should consult with their physician 
prior to performing any electric arc welding operations.
  Route the electrode and work cables together and secure with 
tape when possible.
  Never wrap arc welder cables around the body.
  Always position the electrode and work leads so that they are 
on the same side of the body.
  Exposure to electromagnetic fields during welding may have 
other health effects which are not known.
 
Always be sure that the welding area is secure 
  and free of hazards (sparks, flames, glowing 
metal or slag) prior to leaving.  Be sure that the equipment is turned off 
and electrode is removed. Be sure that cables are loosely coiled and out 
of the way. Be sure that all metal and slag has cooled.
