can
cause
fire
or
explosion.
Welding
on
closed
containers,
-such
as
tanks,
drums,
or
pipes,
can
cause
them
to
blow
up.
Sparks
can
fly
oft
from
the

arc.
The
flying
sparks,
hot
workpiece,
and
hot
equipment
can
cause
fires
and
bums.
Accidental
contact
of

to
metal
objects
can
cause
sparks,
explosion,
overheating,
or
fire.
Check
and
be
sure
the
area
is
safe
before
doing
any
welding.
1.
Protect
yourself
and
others
from
flying
sparks
and
hot
metal.
2.
Do
not
weld
where
flying
sparks
can
strike
flammable
material.
3.
Remove
all
flammables
within
35
ft
(10.7

If
this
is
not
possible,
tightly
cover
them
with
