b.
Do not use liquid based fire extinguishing methods near the electric
arc welding unit, as it may cause a shock hazard.
5.
Do not perform any welding work on containers that held flammable or
toxic substance until they are cleaned by a person trained in removing
toxic and flammable substances and vapours.
6.
Open a container before performing any welding work on it. The heat
generated by the welding process will cause the air and gases to expand.
The internal pressure may cause a sealed or closed container to rupture,
possibly causing an injury or death.
FUMES AND GASES
Welding may produce hazardous fumes and gas during the welding process. A
well-ventilated work area can normally remove the fumes and gases, but
sometimes the welding produces fumes and gases that are hazardous to your
health.
Stop welding if your eyes, nose or throat become irritated. This indicates the
ventilation is not adequate to remove the fumes. Do not resume welding until
the ventilation is improved and the discomfort ceases.
1.
Only work in a confined space if the area is well ventilated or while
wearing an air-supplied respirator. Always have a trained watchperson
nearby.
2.
Avoid positions that allow welding fumes to reach your face.
3.
Ventilate the work area to remove welding fumes and gases. The fumes
and gases should be drawn away from the user. Welding fumes and gases
can displace air and lower the oxygen level causing injury or death. Be
sure the breathing air is safe.
a.
If ventilation in the work area is poor, use an approved air-supplied
respirator. All the people in the work area must also have air-supplied
respirators.
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 Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) for
instructions and precautions about metals, consumables, coatings,
cleaners and degreasers.
