PERSONAL SAFETY
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 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.
