GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (CONTINUED)
• Exposure to electromagnetic fields during welding may have other health effects which are not known.
are loosely coiled and out of the way. Be sure all metal and slag has cooled.
be sure to treat them carefully.
• Protect compressed gas cylinders from excessive heat, mechanical shocks and arcs.
• Install and secure cylinders in an upright position by chaining them to stationary support or equipment
cylinder rack to prevent falling or tipping.
• Keep cylinders away from any welding or other electrical circuits.
• Never allow a welding electrode to touch any cylinder.
• Use only correct shielding gas cylinders, regulators, hoses and fittings designed for the specific
application; maintain all parts properly.
• Turn face away from valve outlet when opening cylinder valve.
• Keep protective cap in place over valve except when cylinder is in use or connected for use.
• Read and follow instructions on compressed gas cylinders, associated equipment, and CGA publication
P-1 listed in Safety Standards.

Refer to Material Safety Data Sheets and manufacturers instructions for metals, wire, coatings and cleaners.
The DANGER, WARNING, CAUTION, and NOTICE notifications and instructions in this manual cannot
cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur. It must be understood by the operator that
caution is a factor which cannot be built into this product, but must be supplied by the operator.
Always be sure welding area is secure and free of hazards (sparks, flames, glowing metal or
slag) prior to leaving. Be sure equipment is turned off and excess wire is cut off. Be sure cables
Cylinders can explode if damaged. Shielding gas cylinders contain gas under high pressure. If
damaged, a cylinder can explode. Since gas cylinders are normally part of the welding process,
Never use flammable gasses with MIG welders. Only inert or non-flammable gasses such as c
arbon dioxide, argon, helium or mixtures of one or more of these gasses are suitable for MIG
welding.
Never lift cylinders off the ground by their valves or caps or with chains or slings.
