The welding is a great trade but also a dangerous trade, and some technical mistakes can be devastating and dangerous for welder. These mistakes may not be easy to fix and could lead on to serious consequences&nbsp;like the failure in the machinery, ruined material, injury, or even death. Some mistakes are okay as they &#8220;help you learn&#8221; category can be fixed with a grinder, torch etc. Every now and then we hear of someone getting maimed or killed -causing someone else to be injured or killed because of technical mistake Making mistakes is a part of life, but at some time and point you learn that there are mistakes that you should never be made.

The dirty surfaces lead on to bad welds and other issues which can be avoided by merely cleaning the surfaces.<\/div>\n<div><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><b>2 Wrong Safety Equipment:<\/b><\/span>&nbsp;Wrong&nbsp;or even worse, not wearing any safety equipment at all. One must use all prescribed safety equipment mentioned with the user manual of the machine.<\/div>\n<div><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><b>3 Procuring the Wrong Welder\/Welding machine:<\/b><\/span>&nbsp;We all want to save money but buying the wrong machine to save the money will not help in the long run. You should know beforehand what sort of welding project you are going to work on and decide the welder accordingly to avoid disaster in the project.<\/div>\n<div><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><b>4 Incorrect Setting on your Welder\/Welding machine:<\/b><\/span>&nbsp;The too high or too low voltage setting may lead on to disastrous results with your welds and may lead on to no welding or sloppy look welding.<\/div>\n<div><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><b>5 Not Maintaining the Welding&nbsp;Equipment:&nbsp;<\/b><\/span>The equipment can last for years if it is properly maintained before and after use. The wire feeder&nbsp;parts like liner, contact tip to change&nbsp;at a prescribed time is the example to maintain the equipment.<\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><b>6 Control of Weld Travel Speed:<\/b><\/span>&nbsp;The travel speed of welding have to keep at a steady pace as fast or slow movements of the hand&nbsp;may lead on to ugly and improper results.<\/p>\n<div><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><b>7 Lack in Knowledge of Base Metal:&nbsp;<\/b><\/span>The know-how of the base metal makes it easier to understand the machining&nbsp;capability of the metal and how the weld will affect the base metal. It should determine whether preheating or post-heating is required&nbsp;in the base metal to produce better&nbsp;welding quality.<\/div>\n<div><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><b>8 The Wrong Gas Selection:<\/b><\/span>&nbsp;It is tempting to purchase the cheapest gas available, we get a better result with mixed gas. The wrong gas may produce poor weld quality.<\/div>\n<div><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><b>9 Striking the Arc Incorrectly:&nbsp;<\/b><\/span>The arc&nbsp;should be stroked on the exact spot that we begin the weld in the crater of a bead that has already created.<\/div>\n<div><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><b>10 Not Relaxing:<\/b><\/span>&nbsp;We should focus on the task but with steady relax hand as a tense hand will get you nowhere.
