Arc Welding Hazards
The symbols shown below are used throughout this manual
to call attention to and identify possible hazards. When you
see the symbol, watch out, and follow the related instructions
to avoid the hazard. The safety information given below is
only a summary of the more complete safety information
found in the Safety Standards listed in Section 1-5. Read and
follow all Safety Standards.
Only qualified persons should install, operate, maintain, and
repair this unit.
During operation, keep everybody, especially children, away.
ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.
Touching live electrical parts can cause fatal shocks
or severe burns. The electrode and work circuit is
electrically live whenever the output is on. The input
power circuit and machine internal circuits are also
live when power is on. In semiautomatic or automatic
wire welding, the wire, wire reel, drive roll housing,
and all metal parts touching the welding wire are
electrically live. Incorrectly installed or improperly
grounded equipment is a hazard.
�
Do not touch live electrical parts.
�
Wear dry, hole-free insulating gloves and body protection.
�
Insulate yourself from work and ground using dry insulating mats
or covers big enough to prevent any physical contact with the work
or ground.
�
Do not use AC output in damp areas, if movement is confined, or if
there is a danger of falling.
�
Use AC output ONLY if required for the welding process.
�
If AC output is required, use remote output control if present on
unit.
�
Additional safety precautions are required when any of the follow-
ing electrically hazardous conditions are present: in damp
locations or while wearing wet clothing; on metal structures such
as floors, gratings, or scaffolds; when in cramped positions such
as sitting, kneeling, or lying; or when there is a high risk of unavoid-
able or accidental contact with the workpiece or ground. For these
conditions, use the following equipment in order presented: 1) a
semiautomatic DC constant voltage (wire) welder, 2) a DC manual
(stick) welder, or 3) an AC welder with reduced open-circuit volt-
age. In most situations, use of a DC, constant voltage wire welder
is recommended. And, do not work alone!
�
Disconnect input power or stop engine before installing or
servicing this equipment. Lockout/tagout input power according to
OSHA 29 CFR 1910.147 (see Safety Standards).
�
Properly install and ground this equipment according to its
Owner’s Manual and national, state, and local codes.
�
Always verify the supply ground − check and be sure that input
power cord ground wire is properly connected to ground terminal in
disconnect box or that cord plug is connected to a properly
grounded receptacle outlet.
�
When making input connections, attach proper grounding conduc-
tor first − double-check connections.
�
Keep cords dry, free of oil and grease, and protected from hot metal
and sparks.
�
Frequently inspect input power cord for damage or bare wiring −
replace cord immediately if damaged − bare wiring can kill.
�
Turn off all equipment when not in use.
�
Do not use worn, damaged, undersized, or poorly spliced cables.
�
Do not drape cables over your body.
�
If earth grounding of the workpiece is required, ground it directly
with a separate cable.
�
Do not touch electrode if you are in contact with the work, ground,
or another electrode from a different machine.
�
Do not touch electrode holders connected to two welding ma-
chines at the same time since double open-circuit voltage will be
present.
�
Use only well-maintained equipment. Repair or replace damaged
parts at once. Maintain unit according to manual.
�
Wear a safety harness if working above floor level.
�
Keep all panels and covers securely in place.
�
Clamp work cable with good metal-to-metal contact to workpiece
or worktable as near the weld as practical.
�
Insulate work clamp when not connected to workpiece to prevent
contact with any metal object.
�
Do not connect more than one electrode or work cable to any
single weld output terminal.
SIGNIFICANT DC VOLTAGE exists in inverter weld-
ing power sources AFTER removal of inputpower.
�
Turn Off inverter, disconnect input power, and discharge input
capacitors according to instructions in Maintenance Section
before touching any parts.
HOT PARTS can burn.
�
Do not touch hot parts bare handed.
�
Allow cooling period before working on equip-
ment.
�
To handle hot parts, use proper tools and/or
wear heavy, insulated welding gloves and
clothing to prevent burns.
Welding produces fumes and gases. Breathing
these fumes and gases can be hazardous to your
health.
FUMES AND GASES can be hazardous.
OM-236 031 Page 2
�
Keep your head out of the fumes. Do not breathe the fumes.
�
If inside, ventilate the area and/or use local forced ventilation at the
arc to remove welding fumes and gases.
�
If ventilation is poor, wear an approved air-supplied respirator.
�
Read and understand the Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDSs)
and the manufacturer’s instructions for metals, consumables,
coatings, cleaners, and degreasers.
�
Work in a confined space only if it is well ventilated, or while
wearing an air-supplied respirator. Always have a trained watch-
person nearby. Welding fumes and gases can displace air and
lower the oxygen level causing injury or death. Be sure the breath-
ing air is safe.
�
Do not weld in locations near degreasing, cleaning, or spraying op-
erations. The heat and rays of the arc can react with vapors to form
highly toxic and irritating gases.
�
Do not weld on coated metals, such as galvanized, lead, or
cadmium plated steel, unless the coating is removed from the weld
area, the area is well ventilated, and while wearing an air-supplied
respirator. The coatings and any metals containing these elements
can give off toxic fumes if welded.
Arc rays from the welding process produce intense
visible and invisible (ultraviolet and infrared) rays
that can burn eyes and skin. Sparks fly off from the
weld.
�
Wear an approved welding helmet fitted with a proper shade of
filter lenses to protect your face and eyes from arc rays and
sparks when welding or watching (see ANSI Z49.1 and Z87.1
listed in Safety Standards).
�
Wear approved safety glasses with side shields under your
helmet.
�
Use protective screens or barriers to protect others from flash,
glare and sparks; warn others not to watch the arc.
�
Wear protective clothing made from durable, flame-resistant
material (leather, heavy cotton, or wool) and foot protection.
ARC RAYS can burn eyes and skin.
Welding on closed containers, such as tanks,
drums, or pipes, can cause them to blow up. Sparks
can fly off from the welding arc. The flying sparks, hot
workpiece, and hot equipment can cause fires and
burns. Accidental contact of electrode to metal objects can cause
sparks, explosion, overheating, or fire. Check and be sure the area is
safe before doing any welding.
WELDING can cause fire or explosion.
�
Remove all flammables within 35 ft (10.7 m) of the welding arc. If
this is not possible, tightly cover them with approved covers.
�
Do not weld where flying sparks can strike flammable material.
�
Protect yourself and others from flying sparks and hot metal.
�
Be alert that welding sparks and hot materials from welding can
easily go through small cracks and openings to adjacent areas.
�
Watch for fire, and keep a fire extinguisher nearby.
�
Be aware that welding on a ceiling, floor, bulkhead, or partition can
cause fire on the hidden side.
�
Do not weld on closed containers such as tanks, drums, or pipes,
unless they are properly prepared according to AWS F4.1 (see
Safety Standards).
�
Do not weld where the atmosphere may contain flammable dust,
gas, or liquid vapors (such as gasoline).
�
Connect work cable to the work as close to the welding area as
practical to prevent welding current from traveling long, possibly
unknown paths and causing electric shock, sparks, and fire
hazards.
�
Do not use welder to thaw frozen pipes.
�
Remove stick electrode from holder or cut off welding wire at
contact tip when not in use.
�
Wear oil-free protective garments such as leather gloves, heavy
shirt, cuffless trousers, high shoes, and a cap.
�
Remove any combustibles, such as a butane lighter or matches,
from your person before doing any welding.
�
After completion of work, inspect area to ensure it is free of sparks,
glowing embers, and flames.
�
Use only correct fuses or circuit breakers. Do not oversize or by-
pass them.
�
Follow requirements in OSHA 1910.252 (a) (2) (iv) and NFPA 51B
for hot work and have a fire watcher and extinguisher nearby.
FLYING METAL or DIRT can injure eyes.
�
Welding, chipping, wire brushing, and grinding
cause sparks and flying metal. As welds cool,
they can throw off slag.
�
Wear approved safety glasses with side
shields even under your welding helmet.
BUILDUP OF GAS can injure or kill.
�
Shut off shielding gas supply when not in use.
�
Always ventilate confined spaces or use
approved air-supplied respirator.
ELECTRIC AND MAGNETIC FIELDS (EMF)
can affect ImplantedMedical Devices.
�
Wearers of Pacemakers and other Implanted
Medical Devices should keep away.
�
Implanted Medical Device wearers should consult their doctor
and the device manufacturer before going near arc welding, spot
welding, gouging, plasma arc cutting, or induction heating
operations.
NOISE can damage hearing.
Noise from some processes or equipment can
damage hearing.
�
Wear approved ear protection if noise level is
high.
Shielding gas cylinders contain gas under high
pressure. If damaged, a cylinder can explode. Since
gas cylinders are normally part of the welding
process, be sure to treat them carefully.
CYLINDERS can explode if damaged.
�
Protect compressed gas cylinders from excessive heat, mechani-
cal shocks, physical damage, slag, open flames, sparks, and arcs.
�
Install cylinders in an upright position by securing to a stationary
support or cylinder rack to prevent falling or tipping.
�
Keep cylinders away from any welding or other electrical circuits.
�
Never drape a welding torch over a gas cylinder.
�
Never allow a welding electrode to touch any cylinder.
�
Never weld on a pressurized cylinder − explosion will result.
�
Use only correct shielding gas cylinders, regulators, hoses, and fit-
tings designed for the specific application; maintain them and
associated parts in good condition.
�
Turn face away from valve outlet when opening cylinder valve.
�
Keep protective cap in place over valve except when cylinder is in
use or connected for use.
�
Use the right equipment, correct procedures, and sufficient num-
ber of persons to lift and move cylinders.
�
Read and follow instructions on compressed gas cylinders,
associated equipment, and Compressed Gas Association (CGA)
publication P-1 listed in Safety Standards.

EMF Information
Electric current flowing through any conductor causes localized electric
and magnetic fields (EMF). Welding current creates an EMF field
around the welding circuit and welding equipment. EMF fields may inter-
fere with some medical implants, e.g. pacemakers. Protective
measures for persons wearing medical implants have to be taken. For
example, access restrictions for passers−by or individual risk assess-
ment for welders. All welders should use the following procedures in
order to minimize exposure to EMF fields from the welding circuit:
1.
Keep cables close together by twisting or taping them, or using a
cable cover.
2.
Do not place your body between welding cables. Arrange cables
to one side and away from the operator.
3.
Do not coil or drape cables around your body.
4.
Keep head and trunk as far away from the equipment in the
welding circuit as possible.
5.
Connect work clamp to workpiece as close to the weld as
possible.
6.
Do not work next to, sit or lean on the welding power source.
7.
Do not weld whilst carrying the welding power source or wire
feeder.
About Implanted Medical Devices:
Implanted Medical Device wearers should consult their doctor and the
device manufacturer before performing or going near arc welding, spot
welding, gouging, plasma arc cutting, or induction heating operations.
If cleared by your doctor, then following the above procedures is recom-
mended.

This starting method is not accept-
able for critical applications since
small tungsten particles may be-
come embedded in the workpiece
and contaminate the weld.
Turn gas on.
