INTRODUCTION
-
We
learn
by
experience.
Learning
safety
through
personal
experience,
like
a
child
touching
a
hot
stove
is
harmful,
wasteful,
and
un
wise. Let
the
experience
of
others
teach
you.
Safe
practices
developed
from
experience
in
the
use
of
welding
and
cutting
are
described
in
this
manual.
Research,
development,
and
field
experience
have
evolved
reliable
equipment
and
safe
installation,
opera
tion,
and
servicing
practices.
Acidents
occur
when
equipment
is
improperly
used
or
maintained.
The
reason
for
the
safe
practices
may
not
always
be
given.
Some
are
based
on
common
sense,
others
may
require
technical
volumes
to
explain.
It
is
wiser
to
follow
the
rules.
Read
and
understand
these
safe
practices
before
at
tempting
to
install,
operate,
or
service
the
equipment.
Comply
with
these
procedures
as
applicable
to
the
par
ticular
equipment
used
and
their
instruction
manuals,
for
personal
safety
and
for
the
safety
of
others.
Failure
to
observe
these
safe
practices
may
cause
serious
injury
or
death.
When
safety
becomes
a
habit,
the
equipment
can
be
used
with
confidence.
These
safe
practices
are
divided
into
two
Sections:
1
-
General
Precautions,
common
to
arc
welding
and
cutting;
and
2
-
Arc
Welding
(and
Cutting)
(only).
Reference
standards:
Published
Standards
on
safety
are
also
available
for
additional
and
more
complete
pro
cedures
than
those
given
in
this
manual.
They
are
listed
in
the
Standards
Index
in
this
manual.
ANSI
Z49.1
is
the
most
complete.
The
National
Electrical
Code,
Occupational
Safety
and
Health
Administration,
local
industrial
codes,
and
loal
inspection
requirements
also
provide
a
basis
for
equip
ment
installation,
use,
and
service.

GENERAL
PRECAUTIONS
A.
Burn
Prevention
Wear
protective
clothing
-
leather
(or
asbestos)
gauntlet
gloves,
hat,
and
high
safety-toe
shoes.
Button
shirt
collar
and
pocket
flaps,
and
wear
cuffless
trousers
to
avoid
entry
of
sparks
and
slag.
Wear
helmet
with
safety
goggles
or
glasses
with
side
shields
underneath,
appropriate
filter
lenses
or
plates
(protected
by
clear
cover
glass).
This
is
a
MUST
for
welding
or
cutting,
(and
chipping)
to
protect
the
eyes
from
radiant
energy
and
flying
metal.
Replace
cover
glass
when
broken,
pitted,
or
spattered.
See
1-3A.2.
Avoid
oily
or
greasy
clothing.
A
spark
may
ignite
them.
Hot
metal
such
as
electrode
stubs
and
workpieces
should
never
be
handled
without
gloves.

PRESSED
GASES
IN
CYLINDERS,
listed

in
Stan
dards
index.
1.
Pressure
Regulators
Regulator
relief
valve
is
designed
to
protect
only
the
regulator
from
overpressure;
it
is
not
intended
to
pro
tect
any
downstream
equipment.
Provide
such
protec
tion
with
one
or
more
relief
devices.
Never
connect
a
regulator
to
a
cylinder
containing
gas
other
than
that
for
which
the
regulator
was
designed.
Remove
faulty
regulator
from
service
immediately
for
repair
(first
close
cylinder
valve).
The
following
symp
toms
indicate
a
faulty
regulator:
Leaks
-
if
gas
leaks
externally.
Excessive
Creep
-
if
delivery
pressure
continues
to
rise
with
downstream
valve
closed.
Faulty
Gauge
-
if
gauge
pointer
does
not
move
off
stop
pin
when
pressurized,
nor
returns
to
stop
pin
after
pressure
release.
Repair.
Do
NOT
attempt
repair.
Send
faulty
regulators
for
repair
to
manufacturers
designated
repair
center,
whore
special
techniques
and
tools
are
used
by
trained
personnel.
2.
Cylinders
Cylinders
must
be
handled
carefully
to
prevent
leaks
and
damage
to
their
walls,
valves,
or
safety
devices:
Avoid
electrical
circuit
contact
with
cylinders
including
third
rails,
electrical
wires,
or
welding
circuits.
They
can
produce
short
circuit
arcs
that
may
lead
to
a
serious
ac
cident.
(See
1-3C.)
-
ICC
or
DOT
marking
must
be
on
each
cylinder.
It
is
an
assurance
of
safety
when
the
cylinder
is
properly
handled.
Identifying
gas
content
Use
only
cylinders
with
name
of
gas
marked
on
them;
do
not
rely
on
color
to
identify
gas
content.
Notify
supplier
if
unmarked.
NEVER
DEFACE
or
alter
name,
number,
or
other
markings
on
a
cylinder.
It
is
illegal
and
hazardous.

Proper
Connections
Clean
cylinder
valve
outlet
of
impurities
that
may
clog
orifices
and
damage
seats
before
connecting
regulator.
Except
for
hydrogen,
crack
valve
momentarily,
pointing
outlet
away
from
people
and
sources
of
ignition.
Wipe
with
a
clean
lintless
cloth.
Match
regulator
to
cylinder.
Before
connecting,
check
that
the
regulator
label
and
cylinder
marking
agree,
and
that,
the
regulator
inlet
and
cylinder
outlet
match.
NEVER
CONNECT
a
regulator
designed
for
a
particular
gas
or
gases
to
a
cylinder
containing
any
other
gas.
Tighten
connections.
When
assembling
threaded
con
nections,
clean
and
smooth
seats
where
necessary.
Tighten.
If
connection
leaks,
disassemble,
clean,
and
retighten
using
properly
fitting
wrench.
Adapters.
Use
a
CGA
adapter
(available
from
your
sup
plier)
between
cylinder
and
regulator,
if
one
is
required.
Use
two
wrenches
to
tighten
adapter
marked
RIGHT
and
LEFT
HAND
threads.
Regulator
outlet
(or
hose)
connections
may
be
iden
tified
by
right
hand
threads
for
oxygen
and
left
hand
threads
(with
grooved
hex
on
nut
or
shank)
for
fuel
gas.
5.
Pressurizing
Steps:
Drain
regulator
of
residual
gas
through
suitable
vent
before
opening
cylinder
(or
manifold
valve)
by
turning
adjusting
screw
in
(clockwise).
Draining
prevents
ex
cessive
compression
heat
at
high
pressure
seat
by
allowing
seat
to
open
on
pressurization.
Leave
adjusting
screw
engaged
slightly
on
single-stage
regulators.
Stand
to
side
of
regulator
while
opening
cylinder
valve.
Open
cylinder
valve
slowly
so
that
regulator
pressure
in
creases
slowly.
When
gauge
is
pressurized
(gauge
reaches
regulator
maximum)
leave
cylinder
valve
in
following
position:
For
oxygen,
and
inert
gases,
open
fully
to
seal
stem
against
possible
leak.
For
fuel
gas,
open
to
less
than
one
turn
to
permit
quick
emergency
shutoff.
Use
pressure
charts
(available
from
your
supplier)
for
safe
and
efficient,
recommended
pressure
settings
on
regulators.
Check
for
leaks
on
first
pressurization
and
regularly
there-after.
Brush
with
soap
solution
(capful
of
Ivory
Liquid*
or
equivalent
per
gallon
of
water).
Bubbles
in

ARC
WELDING
-
Comply
with
precautions
in
1-1,
1-2,
and
this
section.
Arc
Welding,
properly
done,

a
careless
operator
invites
trouble.
The
equipment
carries
high
currents
at
significant
voltages.
The
arc
is
very
bright
and
hot.
Sparks
fly,
fumes
rise,
ultraviolet
and
infrared
energy
radiates,
weidments
are
hot,
and
compressed
gases
may
be
us
ed.
The
wise
operator
avoids
unnecessary
risks
and
pro
tects
himself
and
others
from
accidents.
Precautions
are
described
here
and
in
standards
referenced
in

To
protect
against
shock:
Keep body
and
clothing
dry.
Never
work
in
damp
area
without
adequate
insulation
against
electrical
shock.
Stay
on
a
dry
duckboard,
or
rubber
mat
when
damp
ness
or
sweat
can
not
be
avoided.
Sweat,
sea
water,
or
moisture
between
body
and
an
electrically
HOT
part
-
or
grounded
metal
-
reduces
the
body
surface
electrical
resistance,
enabling
dangerous
and
possibly
lethal
currents
to
flow
through
the
body.
1.
Grounding
the
Equipment
When
installing,
connect
the
frames
of
each
unit
such
as
welding
power
source,
control,
work
table,
and
water
circulator
to
the
building
ground.
Conductors
must
be
adequate
to
carry
ground
currents
safely.
Equipment
made
electrically
HOT
by
stray
current
may
shock,
possibly
fatally.
Do
NOT
GROUND
to
electrical
conduit,
or
to
a
pipe
carrying
ANY
gas
or
a
flammable
li
quid
such
as
oil
or
fuel.
Three-phase
connection.
Check
phase
requirements
of
equipment
before
installing.
If
only
3-phase
power
is
available,
connect
single-phase
equipment
to
only
two
wires
of
the
3-phase
line.
Do
NOT
connect
the
equip
ment
ground
lead
to
the
third
(live)
wire,
or
the
equip
ment
will
become
electrically
HOT
-
a
dangerous
condi
tion
that
can
shock,
possibly
fatally.
Before
welding,
check
ground
for
continuity.
Be
sure
conductors
are
touching
bare
metal
of
equipment
frames
at
connections.
If
a
line
cord
with
a
ground
lead
is
provided
with
the
equipment
for
connection
to
a
switchbox,
connect
the
ground
lead
to
the
grounded
switchbox.
If
a
three-
prong
plug
is
added
for
connection
to
a
grounded
mating
receptacle,
the
ground
lead
must
be
connected
to
the
ground
prong
only.
If
the
line
cord
comes
with
a
three-prong
plug,
connect
to
a
grounded
mating
recep
tacle.
Never
remove
the
ground
prong
from
a
plug,
or
use
a
plug
with
a
broken
off
ground
prong.
2.
Electrode
Holders
Fully
insulated
electrode
holders
should
be
used.
Do
NOT
use
holders
with
protruding
screws.
3.
Connectors
Fully
insulated
lock-type
connectors
should
be
used
to
join
welding
cable
lengths.
4.
Cables
Frequently
inspect
cables
for
wear,
cracks
and
damage.
IMMEDIATELY
REPLACE
those
with
excessively
worn
or
damaged
insulation
to
avoid
possibly
-
lethal
shock
from
bared
cable.
Cables
with
damaged
areas
may
be
taped
to
give
resistance
equivalent
to
original
cable.
Keep
cable
dry,
free
of
oil
and
grease,
and
protected
from
hot metal
and
sparks.

source
is
the
percentage
of
a
ten
minute
period
that
a

power
source
can
safe
ly
be
operated
at
a
given
output.
This
welding
power
source
is
rated
at
40
percent
duty
cycle.
This
means
that
the

should
idle
to
permit
proper
cooling.
If
the
welding
amperes
are
decreased,
the
duty
cycle
will
increase.
