7. ALWAYS keep a fire extinguisher handy (Dry Powder, C02 or BCF, NOT Water).

8. NEVER continue to weld, if, at any time, you feel even the smallest electric shock.

Stop welding IMMEDIATELY and DO NOT attempt to use the machine until the

fault is diagnosed and corrected.

9. NEVER allow the earth cable or torch to become wrapped around the operator or

any person in the vicinity.

A comprehensive range of CLARKE safety equipment for use when welding is available

from your local dealer. See page 24.

Consideration should be given to shielding the supply cable of permanently installed

welding equipment, in metallic conduit or equivalent. Shielding should be electrically

continuous throughout its length.

The shielding should be connected to the welding power source so that good

electrical contact is maintained between the conduit and the welding power source

enclosure.

The welding equipment should be routinely maintained according to the

recommendations (see page 25). All covers should be closed and properly fastened

when the machine is in operation. The welding equipment should not be modified in

any way except for those changes and adjustments covered in these instructions.
