WARNING

NEVER perform welding, heating, or cutting operations

on a container that has held toxic, combustible or

flammable liquids, or vapors. NEVER perform welding,

heating, or cutting operations in an area containing com-

bustible vapors, flammable liquids, or explosive dust.

B Housekeeping

WARNING

NEVER allow oxygen to contact grease, oil, or other

flammable substances. Although oxygen by itself will

not burn, these substances become highly explosive.

They can ignite and burn violently in the presence of

oxygen.

K��p ALL appa�a�u� �l�an and �� g��a��, ��l and ��h�� flammabl�

�ub��an��.

C Ventilation

WARNING

Adequately ventilate welding, heating, and cutting work

areas to prevent accumulation of explosive or toxic

concentrations of gases. Certain combinations of metals,

coatings, and gases generate toxic fumes. Use respira-

tory protection equipment in these circumstances. When

welding/brazing, read and understand the Material Safety

Data Sheet for the welding/brazing alloy.
