V1.0
3.2 Ventilation exhaust shall be directed to a non-work area to avoid
exposing other people to potential toxic or dangerous fumes.
3.3 Air removed from the work area by the ventilation system must be
replenished with fresh air to avoid oxygen starvation or a build-up of
fumes or gases. Only use air to provide ventilation. Any other
combination of gases may be explosive or toxic to people in the work
area.
3.4 Ventilation methods that remove gas and fumes from the welding
point before they reach the welder's face should be given preference.
4. Avoid welding in a work area that has vapours from cleaning, degreasing
or any spraying operations. The heat and light from welding can react
with the vapour and form irritating or potentially toxic gases. Wait for
the vapours to disperse.
5. Consult the manufacturer's Safety Data Sheets (SDS) for instructions and
precautions about metals, consumables, coatings, cleaners and degreasers.
5.1 Do not weld on coated metals such as galvanized, lead or cadmium
plated steel, unless the coating is removed from the weld area. The
coatings and any metals containing these elements can give off toxic
fumes during the welding process.
5.2 Do not weld, cut or heat lead, zinc, cadmium, mercury, beryllium or
similar metals without seeking professional advice and inspection of
the welding area's ventilation. These metals produce extreme toxic
fumes, which can cause discomfort, illness and death.
5.3 Do not weld or cut near chlorinated solvents or in areas that
chlorinates solvents can enter. The heat or ultraviolet light of the arc
can separate chlorinated hydrocarbons into a toxic gas (phosgene)
that can poison or suffocate the user or bystanders.
6. Check the Safety Data Sheet for the proper handling and safety
precautions for consumable welding rods as the coating can have
multiple chemicals.
COMPRESSED GAS CYLINDER PRECAUTIONS
WARNING! Improper handling or maintenance of compressed gas
cylinders and regulators can result in serious injury or death. Do not
use a cylinder or its contents for anything other than its intended use.
1. Only use inert or nonflammable gas with the welding machine, such as
Carbon Dioxide, Argon or Helium with the welding machine.
