General Safety Information
(Continued)
All persons operating this equipment or in the area while
u
equipment is in use, must wear protective welding gear
including: welding helmet or shield with at least shade 10
lens, flame resistant clothing, leather welding gloves and full
foot protection.
Never look at arc welding operations
without eye protection as described above.
Never use a shade filter lens that is cracked, broken, or rated
below number 10. Warn others in the area not to look at the arc.
Electric arc welding operations
cause sparks and heat metal
to temperatures that can cause severe burns! Use
protective gloves and clothing when performing
any metal working operation. Take all precautions
described in this manual to reduce the possibility of skin and
clothing burns.
Make sure all persons in welding area are protected from
u
heat, sparks and ultraviolet rays. Use additional face shields
and flame resistant barriers as needed.
Never touch work pieces until completely cooled.
u
Heat and sparks produced
during electric arc welding and
other metal working operations can ignite flammable
and explosive materials! Take all precautions
described in this manual to reduce the possibility of
flames and explosions.
Remove all flammable materials within 35 feet (10.7 meters)
u
of welding arc. If removal is not possible, tightly cover
flammable materials with fire proof covers.
Do not operate any electric arc welder in areas where
u
flammable or explosive vapors may be present.
Take precautions to ensure flying sparks and heat do not
u
cause flames in hidden areas, cracks, etc.
Fire hazard! Do not weld
on containers or pipes that
contain or have contained flammable materials or
gaseous or liquid combustibles.
Arc welding closed cylinders
or containers such as tanks or
drums can cause explosion if not properly vented!
Verify that any cylinder or container to be welded
has an adequate ventilation hole, so that expanding
gases can be released.
Do not breathe fumes
produced by arc welding
operation. These fumes are dangerous. If welding
area cannot be adequately ventilated, be sure to use
an air-supplied respirator.
Keep head and face out of welding fumes.
u
Extremely toxic fumes are created when galvanized
u
or cadmium plated metals or metals which contain
zinc, mercury or beryllium are heated. Complete the
following precautions before performing electric arc welding
operations on these metals:
a. Remove coating from base metal.
b. Make sure welding area is well ventilated.
c. Use an air-supplied respirator.
Models: WG3080, WG3090 and WG4130
may interfere with the operation of various electrical
and electronic devices such as cardiac pacemakers.
Persons using such devices should consult with
their physician prior to performing any electric arc welding
operations.
Route torch and work cables together and secure with tape
u
when possible.
Never wrap arc welder cables around the body.
u
Always position torch and work leads on the same side of
u
the body.
Exposure to electromagnetic fields during welding may have
u
other health effects which are not known.
(sparks, flames, glowing metal or slag) prior to
leaving. Be sure equipment is turned off and excess
wire is cut off. Be sure cables are loosely coiled
and out of the way. Be sure all metal and slag has
cooled.
cylinders contain gas under high pressure. If
damaged, a cylinder can explode. Since gas
cylinders are normally part of the welding process, be sure to
treat them carefully.
Protect compressed gas cylinders from excessive heat,
u
mechanical shocks and arcs.
Install and secure cylinders in an upright position by chaining
u
them to stationary support or equipment cylinder rack to
prevent falling or tipping.
Keep cylinders away from any welding or other electrical
u
circuits.
Never allow a welding electrode to touch any cylinder.
u
Use only correct shielding gas cylinders, regulators,
u
hoses and fittings designed for the specific application;
maintain all parts properly.
Turn face away from valve outlet when opening cylinder
u
valve.
Keep protective cap in place over valve except when
u
cylinder is in use or connected for use.
Read and follow instructions on compressed gas cylinders,
u
associated equipment, and CGA publication P-1 listed in
Safety Standards.
gasses such as carbon dioxide, argon, helium or mixtures of one
or more of these gasses are suitable for MIG welding.

Cylinders can explode if
damaged. Shielding gas
Never use flammable gasses with MIG
welders. Only inert or non-flammable
Never lift cylinders off the ground by their
valves or caps or with chains or slings.
