 Do not carry out any welding, gas welding, gas cutting
or heating operation around hydraulic pressure pipe or
other flammable material.
 While heat power is beyond the working area, the
pressure pipe may be cut off at any time. Prior to
welding or gas cutting, the fireproofing covers should
be placed temporary to protect the pressure pipe or
other materials.
1.4.8 Removing Paint Before Welding or Heating
Paints might be heated during welding or gas cutting
operation and generate harmful gases. Inhaling these gases
may cause nausea.
 Avoid generating any potential harmful gas and dust.
 Carry out painting operation outdoor or in ventilating
area. Dispose of paint solvent properly.
 Remove paints prior to welding or heating operation.
 When using grinder or sand paper to remove paints,
