SECTION 1 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

1.0 Safety Precautions

Users of ESAB welding and plasma cutting equipment have the ultimate responsibility for ensuring that anyone

who works on or near the equipment observes all the relevant safety precautions. Safety precautions must meet

the requirements that apply to this type of welding or plasma cutting equipment. The following recommendations

should be observed in addition to the standard regulations that apply to the workplace.

All work must be carried out by trained personnel well acquainted with the operation of the welding or plasma

cutting equipment. Incorrect operation of the equipment may lead to hazardous situations which can result in

injury to the operator and damage to the equipment.

1. Anyone who uses welding or plasma cutting equipment must be familiar with:

- its operation

- location of emergency stops

- its function

- relevant safety precautions

- welding and / or plasma cutting

2. The operator must ensure that:

- no unauthorized person stationed within the working area of the equipment when it is started up.

- no one is unprotected when the arc is struck.

3. The workplace must:

- be suitable for the purpose

- be free from drafts

4. Personal safety equipment:

- Always wear recommended personal safety equipment, such as safety glasses, ﬂame proof

clothing, safety gloves.

- Do not wear loose ﬁtting items, such as scarves, bracelets, rings, etc., which could become

trapped or cause burns.

5. General precautions:

- Make sure the return cable is connected securely.

- Work on high voltage equipment may only be carried out by a qualiﬁed electrician.

- Appropriate ﬁre extinquishing equipment must be clearly marked and close at hand.

- Lubrication and maintenance must not be carried out on the equipment during operation.

SECTION 1 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

WELDING AND PLASMA CUTTING CAN BE INJURIOUS TO YOURSELF AND

OTHERS. TAKE PRECAUTIONS WHEN WELDING OR CUTTING. ASK FOR

YOUR EMPLOYER’S SAFETY PRACTICES WHICH SHOULD BE BASED ON

MANUFACTURERS’ HAZARD DATA.

ELECTRIC SHOCK - Can kill.

- Install and earth (ground) the welding or plasma cutting unit in accordance with applicable standards.

- Do not touch live electrical parts or electrodes with bare skin, wet gloves or wet clothing.

- Insulate yourself from earth and the workpiece.

- Ensure your working stance is safe.

FUMES AND GASES - Can be dangerous to health.

- Keep your head out of the fumes.

- Use ventilation, extraction at the arc, or both, to take fumes and gases away from your breathing zone

and the general area.

ARC RAYS - Can injure eyes and burn skin.

- Protect your eyes and body. Use the correct welding / plasma cutting screen and ﬁlter lens and wear

protective clothing.

- Protect bystanders with suitable screens or curtains.

FIRE HAZARD

- Sparks (spatter) can cause ﬁre. Make sure therefore that there are no inﬂammable materials nearby.

NOISE - Excessive noise can damage hearing.

- Protect your ears. Use earmuﬀs or other hearing protection.

- Warn bystanders of the risk.

MALFUNCTION - Call for expert assistance in the event of malfunction.

READ AND UNDERSTAND THE INSTRUCTION MANUAL BEFORE INSTALLING OR OPERATING.

PROTECT YOURSELF AND OTHERS!
