shoes. Flame-retardant cloth or
leather shirts, coats, pants or
coveralls are available for protection.
-Use screens or other barriers to
protect other people from the arc rays
emitted from your welding.
-Warn people in your welding area
when you are going to strike an arc
so they can protect themselves.
Fire Hazards
Do not weld on containers
or pipes that contain or
have had flammable,
gaseous or liquid combustibles in
them. Welding creates sparks and
heat that can ignite flammable and
explosive materials.
-Do not operate any electric arc
welder in areas where flammable or
explosive materials are present.
-Remove all flammable materials
within 35 feet of the welding arc. If
removal is not possible, tightly cover
them with fireproof covers.
-Take precautions to ensure that
flying sparks do not cause fires or
explosions in hidden areas, cracks or
areas you cannot see.
-Keep a fire extinguisher close in the
case of fire.
-Wear garments that are oil-free with
no pockets or cuffs that will collect
sparks.
-Do not have on your person any
items that are combustible, such as
lighters or matches.
-Keep work lead connected as close
to the weld area as possible to
prevent any unknown, unintended
paths of electrical current from
causing electrical shock and fire
hazards.
-To prevent any unintended arcs, cut
wire back to ¼" stick out after welding.
Hot Materials
Welded materials are hot
and can cause severe
burns if handled
improperly.
-Do not touch welded materials with
bare hands.
-Do not touch MIG gun nozzle after
welding until it has had time to cool
down.
Sparks/Flying Debris
Welding creates hot
sparks that can cause
injury. Chipping slag off
welds creates flying debris.
-Wear protective apparel at all times:
ANSI-approved safety glasses or
shield, welder’s hat and ear plugs to
keep sparks out of ears and hair.
Electromagnetic Field
-Electromagnetic fields
can interfere with various
electrical and electronic
devices such as pacemakers.
-Consult your doctor before using any
electric arc welder or cutting device
-Keep people with pacemakers away
from your welding area when welding.
-Do not wrap cable around your body
while welding.
-Wrap MIG gun and ground cable
together whenever possible.
-Keep MIG gun and ground cables on
the same side of your body.
