WORK AREA
1.
Operate in a safe work environment. Keep your work area clean, well-lit and free of distractions.
2.
Remove all unnecessary people from the work area when welding. Anyone remaining in the
work area must wear the appropriate welding safety equipment.
3.
Store tools properly in a safe and dry location. Keep tools out of the reach of children.
4. Do not weld on damp surfaces that can transmit the electric current.
5.
Do not install or use in the presence of flammable gases, dust or liquids.
6.
Welding sparks and ejected molten slag can start a fire. Remove combustible materials
within 39 ft (12 metres) of the welding unit. See Fire and Explosion Precautions.
7.
Have a fire extinguisher readily available (see Fire and Explosion Precautions).
8.
Use protective screens or barriers to protect others from flash and glare; warn others in the
area to look away from the arc.
9.
Keep the welding unit at least one foot from any wall or structure.
10. Check that the work area is free from fires, sparks or hot debris before leaving.
WARNING! Wear personal protective equipment approved by the Canadian Standards
Association (CSA) or American National Standards Institute (ANSI).
HEAD PROTECTION
DANGER! Never look directly at the welding arc without the proper protection. The light can
cause flash burn damage and impair vision. Although treatment is possible, multiple
occurrences can result in permanent eye damage.
1.
Protect your eyes from welding light by wearing a welder's helmet fitted with a filter shade
suitable for the type of welding you are doing. The welding process produces intense white
light, infrared and ultraviolet light, these arc rays can burn both eyes and skin.
1.1. Consult the Welding Shade Guide in Appendix A for the minimum shade to protect the
eyes based on the amperage and type of welding.
2.
An opaque helmet will protect against the ultraviolet or infrared light. A helmet will also
protect against ejected hot material and slag. The helmet should protect the face, forehead,
ears and neck.
3.
Wear a fire-resistant head covering like a skullcap or balaclava hood to protect your head
when the faceplate is down or when using a welding hand-held face shield.
4. Wear ventilated safety goggles beneath the welding helmet or behind the hand-held face
shield. The cooling weld bead may fragment or eject slag that can damage the eyes, when
the helmet or hand-held face shield is not in place.
