15. REGULATIONS
Protect yourself and others. Take precautions when welding. Follow your employers鈥? safety practice, which
should be based on manufacturers hazard data available to your employer. Fumes and gases can be dangerous
to your health. Arc rays can injure eyes and burn skin. Electric shock can kill. Read and understand the
manufacturers instructions and your employer's safety practices. Keep your head out of the fumes. Use
enough ventilation, exhaust at the arc, or both, to keep fumes and gases from your breathing zone, and the
general area. Wear correct eye, ear and body protection. Do not touch live electrical parts. U.K.: see WMA
No.236 and 237 and HSE Guidance Note EH 40. U.S.A.: See American Standard Z 49.1 "Safety in Welding and
Cutting", published by the American Welding Society, 550 Le Jeune Rd, Miami, Florida 33126-5699; OSHA
