Splashes, flying sparks
Splashes and flying sparks constitute a danger of fire and
explosion. Splashes and flying sparks pose a risk of injuries!
Welding generates sparks and –hot spatter. They can ignite combustible materials and
generate explosions. Contact with body parts may entail injuries.
Therefore:
Before you tackle any welding jobs, make sure there are no combustible and / or
explosive materials in the work area.
Do not carry out welding jobs in the vicinity of pressure vessels, tanks, oil barrels,
paint cans and / or in a work area with an explosive atmosphere.
Have fire extinguishing gear ready at hand.
Make sure access and escape routes are not blocked.
During any and all welding jobs: be sure to be wearing a face screen, non-
inflammable safety clothing and welder’s gloves.
Do not carry easily inflammable objects in your pockets (matches, lighters etc.).
Vapours
stitute a danger to your health!
Stock that has not been properly ground and cleaned before welding may be
contaminated with residues of glues, paints, undercoating products etc. that may
generate harmful or even toxic vapours during welding.
Therefore:
Before you tackle any welding jobs, make sure the sheets you want to weld have
been properly ground and cleaned and are free of residues.
Be sure to be wearing a face screen. Respiratory equipment may be
recommendable in case of doubt.
Hot surfaces
t surfaces pose a risk of burns!
Electrodes may heat up to 80 degrees centigrade approx. Stock may have up to 100
degrees right after welding. So there is an acute risk of burning yourself.
Therefore:
Never work without proper safety clothes and gloves near hot components.
Let freshly welded parts cool down to ambient temperature before you go on to
work with them.
Tipping and toppling hazards due to high centre of gravity and obstacles during travel
Tipping and toppling may cause damage
This equipment’s centre of gravity is relatively high. In the event the wheels jam and / or
block (due to an obstacle or transverse pull, for instance), there is a danger the
equipment tips over.
Therefore:
Move this equipment always using the handles.
Keep potential obstacles out of the work area.
Install cables and supply lines in such a way that they do not constitute a stumbling
trap.
