  8. General Welding Safety Overview • Electrical Hazards • Fumes & Gases • Radiation - UV, IR, & Visible • Fire or Explosion • Compressed Gas Hazards • General Hazards in the Work Area

  9. Electrical Hazards • High Voltage Can Kill • Do Not Operate With Covers Removed • Disconnect Input Power Before Servicing • Do Not Touch Electrically Live Parts • Electrical Shock Can Kill • Do Not Touch Electrode With Skin or Wet Clothing • Insulate Yourself From Work and Ground

  10. Fumes & Gases • Welding or Cutting May Produce Hazardous Fumes & Gases • Leaking Gases May Cause Injury or Death • Use Ventilation To Keep Air Breathing Zone Clear & Comfortable • Use Special Care When Welding or Cutting In a Confined Area or on a Container • Do Not Weld or Cut Near Flammables

  11. Radiation - UV, IR, & Visible • Oxyfuel UV/IR Rays Can Burn Eyes & Skin • Always Use Approved Eye Protection When Oxy FuelWelding or Cutting • Select an Appropriate Filter Lens for the Process & Application • Wear Appropriate Clothing Which Protects the Skin • Provide Non-Flammable Shielding to Protect Others

  12. Fire or Explosion • Remove Flammable Materials From The Work Area • Keep a Fire Extinguisher in the Work Area • Wear Fire Retardant Clothing & a Hat When Welding or Cutting • Do Not Weld on Containers Which Have Held Combustible Materials or Closed Containers of Any Kind

  13. Compressed Gas Hazards • Cylinders may Explode if Damaged • Keep Cylinders Upright &Chained to Support or Approved Carrier • Keep Cylinder Free from Sparks& Out of the Spark Zone • Never Allow Flames from a Torch to Come in Contact with a Cylinder or Hose

  14. General Hazards in Work Area • Keep Gas Hoses, Materials & Tools Neatly Organized • Never Use Leaking or Faulty Equipment • Always Ensure ProperEnvironment & Ventilation • Do Not Weld or Cut in a Confined Area • Remove All Flammable Materials From the Work Area, Etc. • Keep All Equipment In Good Condition
