Preparation:
Assess intended work site. Check:

- Ventilation requirements. Provide mechanical ventilation if required (extraction only as increased air flow can impair gas shielding function)
-
Ensure not within 15m of:
- Grass/vegetation/timber and other combustibles
- Flammables storages
- Gas maintenance access points
- Storm water drains
- Rivers or sensitive environmental areas
- Pressure vessels and tanks (including pipelines, flanges, vents and valves)
Check weather requirements. Do not conduct Hot Works in high temperatures, high winds or on days of Total Fire Bans.
Ensure sufficient room to prevent operator contacting work piece and ground.
Ensure adequate insulation provided:
- Dry, hole-free insulated gloves
- Covers on operator, and ground - sufficient to prevent contact between work and ground.
- Insulated electrode holders are provided.
