SAFETY
RULES
FOR
OPERATION
OF
ARC
WELDING
POWER
SOURCL
1.1.
INTRODUCTION
We
learn
by
experience.
Learning
safety
through
per
sonal
experience,
like
a
child
touching
a
hot
stove
is
harmful,
wasteful,
and
unwise.
Let
the
experience
of
oth
ers
teach
you.
Safe
practices
developed
from
experience
in
the
use
of
welding
and
cutting
are
described
in
this
manual.
Re
search,
development,
and
field
experience
have
evolved
reliable
equipment
and
safe
installation,
opera
tion,
and
servicing
practices.
Accidents
occur
when
equipment
is
improperly
used
or
maintained.
The
rea
son
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
seri
ous
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
cut
ting;
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
local
inspection
requirements
also
provide
a
basis
for
equip
ment
installation,
use,
and
service.

GENERAL
PRECAUTIONS
Different
arc
welding
processes,
electrode
alloys,
and
fluxes
can
produce
different
fumes,
gases,
and
radiation
levels.
In
addition
to
the
information
in
this
manual,
be
sure
to
consult
flux
and
electrode
manu
facturers
Material
Safety
Data
Sheets
(MSDSs)
for
specific
technical
data
and
precautionary
measures
concerning
their
material.
A.

by
the
arc,
flame,
flying
sparks,
hot
slag
or
heated
mate
rIal;
misuse
of
compressed
gases
and
cylinders;
and
short
circuits.
BE
AWARE
THAT
flying
sparks
or
falling
slag
can
pass
through
cracks,
along
pipes,
through
windows
or
doors,
and
through
wall
or
floor
openings,
Out
of
sight
of
the
goggled
operator.
Sparks
and
slag
can
fly
35
feet.
To
prevent
fires
and
explosion:
Keep
equipment
clean
and
operable,
free
of
oil,
grease,
and

that
can
cause
short
circuits.
If
combustibles
are
in
area,
do
NOT
weld
or
cut.
Move
the
work
if
practicable,
to
an
area
free
of
combustibles.
Avoid
paint
spray
rooms,
dip
tanks,

is
done,
check
that
area
is
free
of
sparks,
glowing
embers,
and
flames.
An
empty
container
that
held
combustibles,
or
that
can
produce
flammable
or
toxic
vapors
when
heated,
must
never
be
welded
on
or,cut,
unless
container
has
first
been
cleaned
as
described
in
AWS
Standard
A6.O,
listed

in
Standards
Index.
This
includes:
a
thorough
steam
or
caustic
cleaning
(or
a
solvent
or
water
washing,
depending
on
the
combusti
bles
solubility)
followed
by
purging
and
inerting
with
ni
trogen
or
carbon
dioxide,
and
using
protective
equip-
ment
as
recommended
in
A6.O.
Waterfilling
just
below
working
level
may
substitute
for
inerting.
A
container
with
unknown
contents
should
be
cleaned
(see
preceding
paragraph).
Do
NOT
depend
on
sense
of
smell
or
sight
to
determine
if
it
is
safe
to
weld
or
cut.
Hollow
castings
or
containers
must
be
vented
before
welding
or
cutting.
They
can

1-2,
and
this
section.
Arc
Welding,
properly
done,
is
a
safe
process,
but
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
in
frared
energy
radiates,
weldments
are
hot,
and
com
pressed
gases
may
be
used.
The
wise
operator
avoids
unnecessary
risks
and
protects
himself
and
others
from
accidents.
Precautions
are
described
here
and
in
stan
dards
referenced
in
index.
A.
Burn
Protection
Comply
with
precautions
in
1-2.
The
welding
arc
is
intense
and
visibly
bright.
Its
radiation
can
damage
eyes,
penetrate
lightweight
clothing,
reflect
from
light-colored
surfaces,
and
burn
the
skin
and
eyes.
Skin
burns
resemble
acute
sunburn,
those
from
gas-
shielded
arcs
are
more
severe
and
painful.
DONT
GET
BURNED;
COMPLY
WITH
PRECAUTIONS.
1.
Protective
Clothing
Wear
long-sleeve
clothing
(particularly
for
gas-shielded
arc)
in
addition
to
gloves,
hat,
and
shoes
(1-2A).
As
nec
essary,
use
additional
protective
clothing
such
as
leather
jacket
or
sleeves,
flame-proof
apron,
and
fire-resistant
leggings.
Avoid
outer
garments
of
untreated
cotton.
Bare
skin
protection.
Wear
dark,
substantial
clothing.
Button
collar
to
protect
chest
and
neck
and
button
pock
ets
to
prevent
entry
of
sparks.
2.
Eye
and
Head
Protection
Protect
eyes
from
exposure
to
arc.
NEVER
look
at
an
electric
arc
without
protection.
Welding
helmet
or
shield
containing
a
filter
plate
shade
no.
12
or
denser
must
be
used
when
welding.
Place
over
face
before
striking
arc.
Protect
filter
plate
with
a
clear
cover
plate.
Cracked
or
broken
helmet
or
shield
should
NOT
be
worn;
radiation
can
pass
through
to
cause
burns.
Cracked,
broken,
or
loose
filter
plates
must
be
replaced
IMMEDIATELY.
Replace
clear
cover
plate
when
broken,
pitted,
or
spattered.
Flash
goggles
with
side
shields
MUST
be
worn
under
the
helmet
to
give
some
protection
to
the
eyes
should
the
helmet
not
be
lowered
over
the
face
before
an
arc
is
struck.
Looking
at
an
arc
momentarily
with
unprotected
eyes
(particularly
a
high
intensity
gas-shielded
arc)
can
cause
a
retinal
burn
that
may
leave
a
permanent
dark
area
in
the
field
of
vision.
3.
Protection
of
Nearby
Personnel
Enclosed
welding
area.
For
production
welding,
a
sepa
rate
room
or
enclosed
bay
is
best.
In
open
areas,
sur
round
the
operation
with
low-reflective,
non-combusti
ble
screens
or
panels.
Allow
for
free
air
circulation,
par
ticularly
at
floor
level.
Viewing
the
weld.
Provide
face
shields
for
all
persons
who
will
be
looking
directly
at
the
weld.
Others
working
in
area.
See
that
all
persons
are
wearing
flash
goggles.
Before
starting
to
weld,
make
sure
that
screen
flaps
or
bay
doors
are
closed.
B.
Toxic
Fume
Prevention
Comply
with
precautions
in
1
-2B.
Generator
engine
exhaust
must
be
vented
to
the
outside
air.
Carbon
monoxide
can
kill.
C.
Fire
and
Explosion
Prevention
Comply
with
precautions
in
1
-2C.
Equipments
rated
capacity.
Do
not
overload
arc
welding
equipment.
It
may
overheat
cables
and
cause
a
fire.
Loose
cable
connections
may
overheat
or
flash
and
cause
a
fire.
Never
strike
an
arc
on
a
cylinder
or
other
pressure
ves
sel.
It
creates
a
brittle
area
that
can
cause
a
violent
rup
ture
or
lead
to
such
a
rupture
under
rough
handling.
D.
Compressed
Gas
Equipment
Comply
with
precautions
in
I
-2D.
E.
Shock
Prevention
Exposed
hot
conductors
or
other
bare
metal
in
the
weld
ing
circuit,
or
in
ungrounded,
electrically-HOT
equip
ment
can
fatally
shock
a
person
whose
body
becomes
a
conductor.
DO
NOT
STAND,
SIT,
LIE,
LEAN
ON,
OR
TOUCH
a
wet
surface
when
welding,
without
suitable
protection.
To
protect
against
shock:
Wear
dry
insulating
gloves
and
body
protection.
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
dampness
or
sweat
can
not
be
avoided.
Sweat,
sea
water,
or
moisture
be
tween
body
and
an
electrically
HOT
part
or
grounded
metal
reduces
the
electrical
resistance,
and
could
en
able
dangerous
and
possibly
lethal
currents
to
flow
through
the
body.
A
voltage
will
exist
between
the
electrode
and
any
con
ducting
object
in
the
work
circuit.
Examples
of
conduct
ing
objects
include,
but
are
not
limited
to,
buildings,
elec
trical
