4) CABLES

Frequently inspect cables for wear, cracks and damage. IMMEDIATELY REPLACE those

with excessively worn or damaged insulation to avoid possibly lethal shock from bared

cable. Cables with damaged areas may be taped to give resistance equivalent to

original cable. Keep cable dry, free of oil and grease and protected from hot metal and

sparks.

5) TERMINALS AND OTHER EXPOSED PARTS

Terminals and other exposed parts of electrical units should have insulating covers

secured before operation.

6) SAFETY DEVICES

Safety devices such as interlocks and circuit breakers should not be disconnected or

shunted out. Before installation, inspection, or service of equipment, shut OFF all

power and remove line fuses (or lock or red-tag switches) to prevent accidental

turning ON of power. Do not open power circuit or change polarity while welding. If,

in an emergency, it must be disconnected, guard against shock burns, or flash from

switch arcing. Always shut OFF and disconnect all power to equipment. A power

disconnect switch must be available near the welding power source.
