Welding Precautions
To prevent the risk of injury, the following precautions should be observed:

- Welder mask.
- Protective gloves.

- Hood for removal of welding gases.
Welding should always be done in a well ventilated area. A fire extinguisher must always be within reach.
General safety rules for body repair
Extraction installation:
Sealant, underbody protection, etc. should not be burned using an open flame. This results in the release of toxic gases. For example, when PVC is burned, gases containing hydrochloric acid are released. For this reason, when grinding, welding or soldering, always use an appropriate extraction unit.
Always ensure good ventilation when working with materials that contain solvents, use respiratory protection and suction equipment.
Hearing protection should always be worn when cutting, grinding or straightening metal as noise level can reach or even exceed 85 - 90 dB (A).
Do not look at the operating measurement setup where the laser beam is being used.
When removing elements from a car mounted on a lift, watch for changes in the position of its center of gravity. When placing the vehicle on a lift for the first time, please note that it may be necessary to secure it to prevent it from tipping over.
When straightening, chains and chain clamps should be secured with safety cables.
