GENERAL SAFETY RULES

WARNING!

READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL INSTRUCTIONS

Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in

electric shock, fire, and/or serious injury.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

WORK AREA

1. Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered benches and dark areas invite

accidents.

2. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence

of flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite

the dust or fumes.

3. Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating a power tool.

Distractions can cause you to lose control. Protect others in the work area from

debris such as chips and sparks. Provide barriers or shields as needed.

For technical questions, please call 1-800-444-3353;

Troubleshooting section at end of manual. Page 4SKU 93804

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

4. Grounded tools must be plugged into an outlet properly installed and grounded

in accordance with all codes and ordinances. Never remove the grounding

prong or modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs. Check

with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly

grounded. If the tools should electrically malfunction or break down, grounding

provides a low resistance path to carry electricity away from the user.

5. Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges,

and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is

grounded.

6. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power

tool will increase the risk of electric shock.

7. Do not abuse the Power Cord. Never use the Power Cord to carry the tools or

pull the Plug from an outlet. Keep the Power Cord away from heat, oil, sharp

edges,or moving parts. Replace damaged Power Cords immediately. Damaged

Power Cords increase the risk of electric shock.

8. When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor extension cord marked

“W-A” or“W”. These extension cords are rated for outdoor use, and reduce the risk

of electric shock.

PERSONAL SAFETY

9. Stay alert. Watch what you are doing, and use common sense when operating

a power tool. Do not use a power tool while tired or under the influence of

drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power

tools may result in serious personal injury.

10. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep

your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry,

or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

11. Avoid accidental starting. Be sure the Power Switch is off before plugging in.

Carrying power tools with your finger on the Power Switch, or plugging in power

tools with the Power Switch on, invites accidents.

12. Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the power tool on. A wrench

or a key that is left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal

injury.

13. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing

and balance enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.

14. Always wear eye, hearing, and breathing protection. For welding safety

equipment, refer to number 9on page 6.

TOOL USE AND CARE

For technical questions, please call 1-800-444-3353;

Troubleshooting section at end of manual. Page 5SKU 93804

15. Use clamps (not included) or other practical ways to secure and support the

workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body is

unstable and may lead to loss of control.

16. Do not force the tool. Use the correct tool for your application. The correct tool

will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it is designed.

17. Do not use the power tool if the Power Switch does not turn it on or off. Any

tool that cannot be controlled with the Power Switch is dangerous and must be

replaced.

18. Disconnect the Power Cord Plug from the power source before making any

adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the tool. Such preventive safety

measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.

19. Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Tools are

dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

20. Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly

maintained tools with a sharp cutting edge are less likely to bind and are easier to

control. Do not use a damaged tool. Tag damaged tools “Do not use” until repaired.

21. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and

any other condition that may affect the tool’s operation. If damaged, have the

tool serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained

tools.

22. Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your

model. Accessories that may be suitable for one tool may become hazardous when

used on another tool.

SERVICE

23. Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel. Service or

maintenance performed by unqualified personnel could result in a risk of injury.

24. When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts. Follow instructions

in the

“Inspection, Maintenance, And Cleaning”

section of this manual. Use of

unauthorized parts or failure to follow maintenance instructions may create a risk of

electric shock or injury.

For technical questions, please call 1-800-444-3353;

Troubleshooting section at end of manual. Page 7SKU 93804

10. Prevent accidental fires. Remove any combustible material from the work

area.

•When possible, move the work to a location well away from combustible

materials. If relocation is not possible, protect the combustibles with a

cover made of fire resistant material.

• Remove or make safe all combustible materials for a radius of 35 feet (10 meters)

around the work area. Use a fire resistant material to cover or block all open

doorways, windows, cracks, and other openings.

• Enclose the work area with portable fire resistant screens. Protect combustible

walls, ceilings, floors, etc., from sparks and heat with fire resistant covers.

• If working on a metal wall, ceiling, etc., prevent ignition of combustibles on the

other side by moving the combustibles to a safe location. If relocation of

combustibles is not possible, designate someone to serve as a fire watch,

equipped with a fire extinguisher, during the cutting process and for at least one

half hour after the cutting is completed.

• Do not weld or cut on materials having a combustible coating or combustible

internal structure, as in walls or ceilings, without an approved method for

eliminating the hazard.

• Do not dispose of hot slag in containers holding combustible materials. Keep a

fire extinguisher nearby and know how to use it.

• After spot welding, make a thorough examination for evidence of fire. Be aware

that easily-visible smoke or flame may not be present for some time after the fire

has started. Do not weld or cut in atmospheres containing dangerously reactive

or flammable gases, vapors, liquids, and dust. Provide adequate ventilation in

work areas to prevent accumulation of flammable gases, vapors, and dust. Do

not apply heat to a container that has held an unknown substance or a

combustible material whose contents, when heated, can produce flammable or

explosive vapors. Clean and purge containers before applying heat. Vent closed

containers, including castings, before preheating, welding, or cutting.

11. Avoid overexposure to fumes and gases. Always keep your head out of the

fumes. Do not breathe the fumes. Use enough ventilation or exhaust, or both, to

keep fumes and gases from your breathing zone and general area.

• Where ventilation is questionable, have a qualified technician take an air

sampling to determine the need for corrective measures. Use mechanical

ventilation to improve air quality. If engineering controls are not feasible, use an

approved respirator.

• Work in a confined area only if it is well ventilated, or while wearing an air-

supplied respirator.

• Follow OSHA guidelines for Permissible Exposure Limits (PEL’s) for various

fumes and gases.

• Follow the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists

recommendations for Threshold Limit Values (TLV’s) for fumes and gases.

For technical questions, please call 1-800-444-3353;

Troubleshooting section at end of manual. Page 8SKU 93804

• Have a recognized specialist in Industrial Hygiene or Environmental Services

check the operation and air quality and make recommendations for the specific

welding or cutting situation.

12. Read and understand all instructions and safety precautions as outlined in

the manufacturer’s manual for the material you will weld or cut.

13. Do not touch live electrical parts.Wear dry, insulating gloves. Do not touch

electrode or conductor tong with bare hand. Do not wear wet or damaged gloves.

14. Protect yourself from electric shock. Do not use outdoors. Insulate yourself from

the workpiece and ground. Use nonflammable, dry insulating material if possible, or

use dry rubber mats, dry wood or plywood, or other dry insulating material big enough

to cover your full area of contact with the work or ground.

15. Ensure that the unit is placed on a stable location before use. If this unit falls

while plugged in, severe injury, electric shock, or fire may result.

16. Cylinders can explode when damaged:

• Never weld on a pressurized or a closed cylinder.

• Never lay a welding torch on a cylinder.

• Never allow a welding electrode to touch the cylinder.

• Keep cylinders away from any electrical circuits, including welding circuits.

• Keep protective cap in place over the valve except when the cylinder is in use.
