Safety Instructions for
Shielded Metal Arc Welders (SMAW)
1. READ THIS MANUAL. This manual con-
tains proper operating and safety proce
-
dures for this equipment.
2. WELDING FUMES. Breathing welding
fumes can cause suffocation or poisoning
without warning. Keep your head out of
welding fumes. Use adequate ventilation
at the arc to safely remove the fumes from
your breathing zone and the general area.
Use ANSI approved respirators for the type
of welding operation. Protect others from
these fumes.
3. WELDING IN A CONFINED SPACE CAN
BE HAZARDOUS. Always open all covers,
sustain forced ventilation, remove toxic and
hazardous materials, and provide a power
disconnect to the welder inside the work
space. Always work with someone who
can give you help from outside the space.
Welding can displace oxygen. Always check
for safe breathing atmosphere and provide
air-supplied respirators if necessary. Keep
in mind that all normal welding hazards are
intensified in a confined space.
