Rescuers' Recommendations: Non-compliance with fire safety requirements during welding operations often leads to fires. Before starting welding, check the equipment for proper functioning and ensure the availability of fire extinguishing means. It is important to prevent sparks from falling onto combustible structures and materials. Do not store flammable items and containers containing flammable substances in the welding area.
