GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
ELECTRIC SHOCK
• Remove the plug from the socket
and wait 5 minutes to allow the
capacitors to discharge before
carrying out servicing or
maintenance.
• Do not touch live electrical parts.
• Never use electrode holders or
cables which are damaged.
• Keep working environment,
equipment, cables and clothing
free from grease, oil, moisture and
dirt.
• Ensure welding machine has been
correctly earthed.
• The operator must be insulated
from the floor and work bench
using a dry insulation mat.
• Always ensure a second person is
present in case of accident.
• Never change electrodes with
bare hands or damp gloves.
• Keep welding cables away from
power cables.
• Regularly inspect the condition of
the cables for signs of damage.
• Remove plug from the mains
socket when not in use, do not
leave the machine unattended.
• Ensure earth clamp is secured to
bare metal adjacent to weld
seam, and when not in use is
insulated for safety. - Keep all
equipment well maintained.
• The operator shall prevent gas
cylinders in the vicinity of the work
piece from becoming part of the
welding circuit.
FUMES & GASES
• The welding process generates
hazardous fumes as a by-product.
Inhalation of these fumes is
hazardous to health.
• Keep your head away from the
weld to avoid breathing the fumes.
• If welding in confined spaces
ensure adequate ventilation and
use a fume extractor.
• By-products of welding can react
to create a toxic/explosive
environment.
FIRE OR EXPLOSION
Welding can cause fire and
explosions. Precautions should be
taken to prevent these hazards.
• Before starting work ensure the
area is clear of flammable
materials.
• Move any combustible materials to
a safe distance, especially
substances likely to generate a
dangerous vapour.
WARNING: WHEN USING ELECTRICAL TOOLS, BASIC SAFETY
PRECAUTIONS SHOULD ALWAYS BE FOLLOWED TO REDUCE THE RISK OF
FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK AND PERSONAL INJURY
WARNING: READ ALL THESE INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO
OPERATE THIS PRODUCT AND KEEP THESE INSTRUCTIONS IN A SAFE PLACE.

• The welding arc can cause serious
burns. Avoid contact with skin.
• Sparks and molten metal are
ejected during welding. Take
precautions to prevent fires.
• Sparks and molten metal can pass
through gaps. Be aware that fire
can start out of sight.
• Do not weld pressurised containers.
or containers containing
flammable vapours e.g. fuel tanks.
• Always have appropriate fire
fighting equipment to hand
suitable for use in electrical
environments.
• Avoid carrying any fuels with you
e.g. cigarette lighters or matches.
PERSONAL PROTECTION
• The body should be protected by
suitable clothing.
• The use of neck protection may be
necessary against reflected
radiation.
• Arc machines generate a
magnetic field which is detrimental
to pacemakers. Consult your
doctor before going near active
welding equipment/operations.
• The UV and IR radiation generated
by welding is highly damaging to
the eyes, causing burns. This can
also affect the skin.
• Always use a suitable welding
shield equipped with appropriate
protective filters.
• Where there are pedestrians and
traffic ensure a protective screen is
used to avoid accidental arc glare.
• Do not weld in the vicinity of
children or animals and ensure no-
one is looking before striking an
arc.
• Wear hearing protection if
required.
• Allow the weld time to cool. Hot
metal should never be handled
without gloves.
• Take care when adjusting or
maintaining the torch, that it has
had time to cool sufficiently and
the welder is disconnected from
the mains supply.
• First aid facilities and a qualified first
aid person should be available
unless medical facilities are close
by, for immediate treatment of
flash burns of the eyes and skin
burns.
• A hard hat should be worn when
others are working overhead.
• Flammable hair sprays/gels should
not be used by persons intending
to weld or cut.
PROTECTIVE CLOTHING
• Wear gauntlet gloves designed for
use in welding,
• Wear an apron, and protective
shoes.
• Wear cuffless trousers to avoid
entry of sparks and slag.
• Avoid oily greasy clothing.
• Protective head and shoulder
coverings should be worn when
welding overhead.

• Wear a helmet or safety goggles or
glasses with side shields
underneath, appropriate filter
lenses or plates (protected by clear
glass). This is a MUST for welding
(and chipping) to protect the eyes
from radiant energy and spatter.
Replace cover glass when broken,
pitted, or spattered.
NOTE: ALL protective wear inc. masks
& head shields MUST comply with PPE
Directive 89/686/EEC
ADDITIONAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
FOR ARC WELDERS
• NEVER attempt to remove any of
the panels unless the machine is
disconnected from the power
supply.
• NEVER use the machine with any of
the panels removed.
• NEVER attempt any electrical or
mechanical repair unless your are
a qualified technician. If you have
a problem with the machine
contact your local CLARKE dealer.
• NEVER use or store in a wet/damp
environment. DO NOT EXPOSE TO
RAIN.
• NEVER allow children or animals in
the vicinity of a welding operation.
• ALWAYS remove all flammable
materials from the welding area.
• ALWAYS ensure that there is full free
air circulating around the outer
casing of the machine, and that
the louvres are unobstructed.
• Welding arc can seriously damage
your eyes. Both the operator and
any spectators should always use a
proper welding face shield or
helmet, with suitable filter lenses.
Proper gloves and working clothes
should be worn at all times.
• ALWAYS wear a pair of safety
spectacles/goggles when
chipping away slag after welding.
Remember, ordinary eye glasses
are not safety gasses.
• ALWAYS ensure there is adequate
ventilation or extraction in the work
area as the welding process gives
off toxic fumes.
• ALWAYS ensure there is a fire
extinguisher on hand.
• ALWAYS ensure that a medical
supply is on hand, and that
treatment for burns is available.
