1.2 WARNING LABEL DEFINITIONS

The table below contains caution and warning labels for the operation of this equipment. Before
operating this or any welding equipment users should be familiar with

ANSI-49.1 Safety in

Welding and Cutting.

ELECTRIC SHOCK from welding electrode or wiring can kill.

HIGH FREQUENCY RADIO WAVES can cause interference and
sometimes even damage to nearby electronic equipment (such
as computers) that are un-protected.

MAGNETIC FIELDS can affect implanted medical devices.
Wearers of pacemakers should keep away until consulting their
doctor.

Welding can cause

FIRE OR EXPLOSIONS. Do not weld near

FLAMMABLE or EXPLOSIVE MATERIALS. Have the proper
type of extinguisher in the work area.

WEAR NON-FLAMMABLE protective clothing, footwear and
head gear at all times.

HOT PARTS can cause severe burns. Do not touch recently
welded components. Avoid touching torch components and
welding fixtures soon after welding.

ARC RAYS can burn the eyes and skin. The welding arc emits
ultra-violet (UV) radiation and the molten weld gives off infra-red.
Both can burn eyes and skin if unprotected. Suitable eye and skin
protection must be worn.

BUILD UP OF GAS can injure or kill. Weld materials can emit
toxic fumes during welding. WELD ONLY IN AREAS WITH
ADEQUATE VENTILATION

.

FUMES AND GASES can be hazardous. Welding produces
fumes and gases. Breathing these fumes and gases can be
hazardous to your health. DO NOT weld in enclosed areas
without proper ventilation or respirators.
