5.1 Notes, Cautions and Warnings

Throughout this manual, notes, cautions, and warnings are used to highlight important

information. These highlights are categorised as follows:

NOTE

An operation, procedure, or background information which requires additional emphasis or is helpful in

efficient operation of the system.

CAUTION

A procedure which, if not properly followed, may cause damage to the equipment.

WARNING

A procedure which, if not properly followed, may cause injury to the operator or others in the operating

area.

5.2 Important Safety Precautions

WARNING

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE OF WELDING ARC EQUIPMENT CAN BE DANGEROUS

AND HAZARDOUS TO YOUR HEALTH.

To prevent possible injury, read, understand and follow all warnings, safety precautions

and instructions before using the equipment. Call your local distributor if you have any

questions.

Transmigs 220, 250 & 253

GASES AND FUMES

Gases and fumes produced during the welding process can be dangerous and hazardous to

your health.

• Keep all fumes and gases from the breathing area. Keep your head out of the welding

fume plume.

• Use an air-supplied respirator if ventilation is not adequate to remove all fumes and

gases.

• The kinds of fumes and gases from the welding arc depend on the kind of metal being

used, coatings on the metal, and the different processes. You must be very careful when

cutting or welding any metals which may contain one or more of the following:

Antimony Beryllium Cobalt Manganese Selenium

Arsenic Cadmium Copper Mercury Silver

Barium Chromium Lead Nickel Vanadium

• Always read the Material Safety Data Sheets (MSD’s) that should be supplied with the

material you are using. These MSDS’s will give you the information regarding the kind and

amount of fumes and gases that may be dangerous to your health.

• For information on how to test for fumes and gases in your workplace, refer to item 1 in

Subsection 5.3, Publications in this manual.

• Use special equipment, such as water or down draft cutting tables, to capture fumes and gases.

• Do not use the welding torch in an area where combustible or explosive gases or materials are

located.

• Phosgene, a toxic gas, is generated from the vapours of chlorinated solvents and cleansers.

Remove all sources of these vapours.

• Refer to the Victorian Occupational Health and safety (Confined Spaces) Regulations 1996

and Code of Practice or its equivalent for other states and / or countries.

ELECTRIC SHOCK

Electric Shock can injure or kill. The welding arc process uses and produces high voltage

electrical energy. This electric energy can cause severe or fatal shock to the operator or others in

the workplace.

• Never touch any parts that are electrically “live” or “hot.”

• Wear dry gloves and clothing. Insulate yourself from the work-piece or other parts of the

welding circuit.

• Repair or replace all worn or damaged parts.

• Extra care must be taken when the workplace is moist or damp.

• Install and maintain equipment according to NEC code, refer to item 4 in Subsection 5.3,

Publications.

• Disconnect power supply before performing any service or repairs.

Read and follow all the instructions in the Operating Manual.

Transmigs 220, 250 & 253

FIRE AND EXPLOSION

Fire and explosion can be caused by hot slag, sparks, or the welding arc.

• Be sure there is no combustible or flammable material in the workplace. Any material that

cannot be removed must be protected.

• Ventilate all flammable or explosive vapours from the workplace.

• Do not cut or weld on containers that may have held combustibles.

• Provide a fire watch when working in an area where fire hazards may exist.

• Hydrogen gas may be formed and trapped under aluminium work-pieces when they are cut

underwater or while using a water table. DO NOT cut aluminium alloys underwater or on a

water table unless the hydrogen gas can be eliminated or dissipated. Trapped hydrogen gas

that is ignited will cause an explosion.

NOISE

Noise can cause permanent hearing loss. Plasma arc processes can cause noise levels to

exceed safe limits. You must protect your ears from loud noise to prevent permanent loss of

hearing.

• To protect your hearing from loud noise, wear protective earplugs and/or earmuffs. Protect

others in the workplace.

• Noise levels should be measured to be sure the decibels (sound) do not exceed safe levels.

• For information on how to test for noise, see item 1 in Subsection 5.3, Publications, in this

manual.

ARC RAYS

Arc Rays can injure your eyes and burn your skin. The welding arc process produces very

bright ultra violet and infra red light. These arc rays will damage your eyes and burn your

skin if you are not properly protected.

• To protect your eyes, always wear a welding helmet or shield. Also always wear safety

glasses with side shields, goggles or other protective eye wear.

• Wear welding gloves and suitable clothing to protect your skin from the arc rays and sparks.

Keep helmet and safety glasses in good condition. Replace lenses when cracked, chipped or

dirty.

• Protect others in the work area from the arc rays. Use protective booths, screens or shields.

• Use the shade of lens as recommended in the Operating Manual.
