    1-2. Arc Welding Hazards

    The symbols shown below are used throughout this manual tocall attention to and identify possible hazards. When you seethe symbol, watch out, and follow the related instructions toavoid the hazard. The safety information given below is onlya summary of the more complete safety information found inthe Safety Standards listed in Section 1-4. Read and follow allSafety Standards.

    Only qualified persons should install, operate, maintain, andrepair this unit.

    During operation, keep everybody, especially children, away.

    ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.

    Touching live electrical parts can cause fatal shocksor severe burns. The electrode and work circuit iselectrically live whenever the output is on. The inputpower circuit and machine internal circuits are also

    live when power is on. In semiautomatic or automatic wire welding, thewire, wire reel, drive roll housing, and all metal parts touching thewelding wire are electrically live. Incorrectly installed or improperlygrounded 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 matsor covers big enough to prevent any physical contact with the workor ground.

    Do not use AC output in damp areas, if movement is confined, or ifthere 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 onunit.

    Disconnect input power or stop engine before installing orservicing this equipment. Lockout/tagout input power according toOSHA 29 CFR 1910.147 (see Safety Standards).

    Properly install and ground this equipment according to itsOwners Manual and national, state, and local codes.

    Always verify the supply ground check and be sure that inputpower cord ground wire is properly connected to ground terminal indisconnect box or that cord plug is connected to a properlygrounded receptacle outlet.

    When making input connections, attach proper grounding conduc-tor first double-check connections.

    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 directlywith a separate cable.

    Do not touch electrode if you are in contact with the work, ground,or another electrode from a different machine.

    Use only well-maintained equipment. Repair or replace damagedparts 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 workpieceor worktable as near the weld as practical.

    Insulate work clamp when not connected to workpiece to preventcontact with any metal object.

    Do not connect more than one electrode or work cable to anysingle weld output terminal.

    SIGNIFICANT DC VOLTAGE exists after removal ofinput power on inverters. Turn Off inverter, disconnect input power, and discharge input

    capacitors according to instructions in Maintenance Sectionbefore touching any parts.

    Welding produces fumes and gases. Breathingthese fumes and gases can be hazardous to yourhealth.

    FUMES AND GASES can be hazardous.

    Keep your head out of the fumes. Do not breathe the fumes.

    If inside, ventilate the area and/or use exhaust at the arc to removewelding fumes and gases.

    If ventilation is poor, use an approved air-supplied respirator.

    Read the Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDSs) and themanufacturers instructions for metals, consumables, coatings,cleaners, and degreasers.

    Work in a confined space only if it is well ventilated, or whilewearing an air-supplied respirator. Always have a trained watch-person nearby. Welding fumes and gases can displace air andlower 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 formhighly toxic and irritating gases.

    Do not weld on coated metals, such as galvanized, lead, orcadmium plated steel, unless the coating is removed from the weldarea, the area is well ventilated, and if necessary, while wearing anair-supplied respirator. The coatings and any metals containingthese elements can give off toxic fumes if welded.

  • OM-1318 Page 2

    Arc rays from the welding process produce intensevisible and invisible (ultraviolet and infrared) raysthat can burn eyes and skin. Sparks fly off from theweld.

    ARC RAYS can burn eyes and skin.

    Wear a welding helmet fitted with a proper shade of filter to protectyour face and eyes when welding or watching (see ANSI Z49.1and Z87.1 listed in Safety Standards).

    Wear approved safety glasses with side shields under yourhelmet.

    Use protective screens or barriers to protect others from flash andglare; warn others not to watch the arc.

    Wear protective clothing made from durable, flame-resistant mate-rial (leather and wool) and foot protection.

    Welding on closed containers, such as tanks,drums, or pipes, can cause them to blow up. Sparkscan fly off from the welding arc. The flying sparks, hotworkpiece, and hot equipment can cause fires and

    burns. Accidental contact of electrode to metal objects can causesparks, explosion, overheating, or fire. Check and be sure the area issafe before doing any welding.

    WELDING can cause fire or explosion.

    Protect yourself and others from flying sparks and hot metal.

    Do not weld where flying sparks can strike flammable material.

    Remove all flammables within 35 ft (10.7 m) of the welding arc. Ifthis is not possible, tightly cover them with approved covers.

    Be alert that welding sparks and hot materials from welding caneasily 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 cancause 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 (seeSafety Standards).

    Connect work cable to the work as close to the welding area aspractical to prevent welding current from traveling long, possiblyunknown paths and causing electric shock and fire hazards.

    Do not use welder to thaw frozen pipes.

    Remove stick electrode from holder or cut off welding wire atcontact tip when not in use.

    Wear oil-free protective garments such as leather gloves, heavyshirt, cuffless trousers, high shoes, and a cap.

    Remove any combustibles, such as a butane lighter or matches,from your person before doing any welding.

    FLYING METAL can injure eyes.

    Welding, chipping, wire brushing, and grindingcause sparks and flying metal. As welds cool,they can throw off slag.

    Wear approved safety glasses with sideshields 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.

    HOT PARTS can cause severe burns.

    Do not touch hot parts bare handed. Allow cooling period before working on gun or

    torch.

    MAGNETIC FIELDS can affect pacemakers.

    Pacemaker wearers keep away. Wearers should consult their doctor before

    going near arc welding, gouging, or spotwelding operations.

    NOISE can damage hearing.

    Noise from some processes or equipment candamage hearing.

    Wear approved ear protection if noise level ishigh.

    Shielding gas cylinders contain gas under highpressure. If damaged, a cylinder can explode. Sincegas cylinders are normally part of the weldingprocess, be sure to treat them carefully.

    CYLINDERS can explode if damaged.

    Protect compressed gas cylinders from excessive heat, mechani-cal shocks, slag, open flames, sparks, and arcs.

    Install cylinders in an upright position by securing to a stationarysupport 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 andassociated 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 inuse or connected for use.

    Read and follow instructions on compressed gas cylinders,associated equipment, and CGA publication P-1 listed in SafetyStandards.

    1-5. EMF Information

    Considerations About Welding And The Effects Of Low FrequencyElectric And Magnetic FieldsWelding current, as it flows through welding cables, will cause electro-magnetic fields. There has been and still is some concern about suchfields. However, after examining more than 500 studies spanning 17years of research, a special blue ribbon committee of the NationalResearch Council concluded that: The body of evidence, in thecommittees judgment, has not demonstrated that exposure to power-frequency electric and magnetic fields is a human-health hazard.However, studies are still going forth and evidence continues to beexamined. Until the final conclusions of the research are reached, youmay wish to minimize your exposure to electromagnetic fields whenwelding or cutting.To reduce magnetic fields in the workplace, use the followingprocedures:

    1. Keep cables close together by twisting or taping them.

    2. Arrange cables to one side and away from the operator.

    3. Do not coil or drape cables around your body.

    4. Keep welding power source and cables as far away from opera-tor as practical.

    UN CHOC LECTRIQUE peut tuer.

    Un simple contact avec des pices lectriques peutprovoquer une lectrocution ou des blessures graves.Llectrode et le circuit de soudage sont sous tensionds que lappareil est sur ON. Le circuit dentre et lescircuits internes de lappareil sont galement sous

    tension ce moment-l. En soudage semi-automatique ou automatique,le fil, le dvidoir, le logement des galets dentranement et les picesmtalliques en contact avec le fil de soudage sont sous tension. Desmatriels mal installs ou mal mis la terre prsentent un danger.

    Ne jamais toucher les pices lectriques sous tension. Porter des gants et des vtements de protection secs ne comportant

    pas de trous. Sisoler de la pice et de la terre au moyen de tapis ou dautres

    moyens isolants suffisamment grands pour empcher le contact phy-sique ventuel avec la pice ou la terre.

    Ne pas se servir de source lectrique courant lectrique dans les zoneshumides, dans les endroits confins ou l o on risque de tomber.

    Se servir dune source lectrique courant lectrique UNIQUEMENT si leprocd de soudage le demande.

    Si lutilisation dune source lectrique courant lectrique savre nces-saire, se servir de la fonction de tlcommande si lappareil en est quip.

    Couper lalimentation ou arrter le moteur avant de procder linstal-lation, la rparation ou lentretien de lappareil. Dverrouillerlalimentation selon la norme OSHA 29 CFR 1910.147 (voir normes descurit).

    Donnes sur le soudage lectrique et sur les effets, pour lorganisme,des champs magntiques basse frquence

    Le courant de soudage, pendant son passage dans les cbles de sou-dage, causera des champs lectromagntiques. Il y a eu et il y a encoreun certain souci propos de tels champs. Cependant, aprs avoir ex-amin plus de 500 tudes qui ont t faites pendant une priode derecherche de 17 ans, un comit spcial ruban bleu du National Re-search Council a conclu: Laccumulation de preuves, suivant lejugement du comit, na pas dmontr que lexposition aux champsmagntiques et champs lectriques haute frquence reprsente unrisque la sant humaine. Toutefois, des tudes sont toujours en courset les preuves continuent tre examines. En attendant que les con-clusions finales de la recherche soient tablies, il vous seraitsouhaitable de rduire votre exposition aux champs lectromagnti-ques pendant le soudage ou le coupage.

    Afin de rduire les champs lectromagntiques dans lenvironnementde travail, respecter les consignes suivantes :

    1 Garder les cbles ensembles en les torsadant ou en lesattachant avec du ruban adhsif.

    2 Mettre tous les cbles du ct oppos de loprateur.

    3 Ne pas courber pas et ne pas entourer pas les cbles autour devotre corps.

    4 Garder le poste de soudage et les cbles le plus loin possible devous.

    5 Relier la pince de masse le plus prs possible de la zone desoudure.

    Consignes relatives aux stimulateurs cardiaques :
