THERMAL ARC 201 TSSAFE INSTRUCTIONSECTION 1:ARC WELDING SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS AND WARNINGS!WARNINGPROTECT YOURSELF AND OTHERS FROM POSSIBLE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. KEEP CHILDRENAWAY. PACEMAKER WEARERS KEEP AWAY UNTIL CONSULTING YOUR DOCTOR. DO NOT LOSE THESEINSTRUCTIONS. READ OPERATING/INSTRUCTION MANUAL BEFORE INSTALLING, OPERATING ORSERVICING THIS EQUIPMENT.Welding products and welding processes can cause serious injury or death, or damage to other equipment orproperty, if the operator does not strictly observe all safety rules and take precautionary actions.Safe practices have developed from past experience in the use of welding and cutting. These practices must belearned through study and training before using this equipment. Some of these practices apply to equipmentconnected to power lines; other practices apply to engine driven equipment. Anyone not having extensivetraining in welding and cutting practices should not attempt to weld.Safe practices are outlined in the European Standard EN60974-1 entitled: Safety in welding and allied processesPart 2: Electrical. This publication and other guides to what you should learn before operating this equipmentare listed at the end of these safety precautions. HAVE ALL INSTALLATION, OPERATION, MAINTENANCE,AND REPAIR WORK PERFORMED ONLY BY QUALIFIED PEOPLE.1.01 Arc Welding HazardsWARNINGELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.Touching live electrical parts can causefatal shocks or severe burns. The electrodeand work circuit is electrically live wheneverthe output is on. The input power circuitand machine internal circuits are alsolive when power is on. In semiautomaticor automatic wire welding, the wire, wirereel, drive roll housing, and all metal partstouching the welding wire are electricallylive. Incorrectly installed or improperlygrounded equipment is a hazard.1. Do not touch live electrical parts.2. Wear dry, hole-free insulating gloves and bodyprotection.3. Insulate yourself from work and ground using dryinsulating mats or covers.4. Disconnect input power or stop engine beforeinstalling or servicing this equipment. Lock inputpower disconnect switch open, or remove linefuses so power cannot be turned on accidentally.5. Properly install and ground this equipment accordingto its Owner’s Manual and national, state, andlocal codes.6. Turn off all equipment when not in use. Disconnectpower to equipment if it will be left unattended orout of service.7. Use fully insulated electrode holders. Never dipholder in water to cool it or lay it down on theground or the work surface. Do not touch holdersconnected to two welding machines at the sametime or touch other people with the holder orelectrode.8. Do not use worn, damaged, undersized, or poorlyspliced cables.9. Do not wrap cables around your body.10. Ground the workpiece to a good electrical (earth)ground.11. Do not touch electrode while in contact with thework (ground) circuit.12. Use only well-maintained equipment. Repair orreplace damaged parts at once.13. In confined spaces or damp locations, do not use awelder with AC output unless it is equipped with avoltage reducer. Use equipment with DC output.14. Wear a safety harness to prevent falling if workingabove floor level.15. Keep all panels and covers securely in place.Manual 0-5149 1-1 General Information
