OVERVIEW

Keep Your Shop Safe and Up to Code

Safety isn't just about your helmet and gloves; it's about knowing your machine and respecting the power it puts out. The Miller 279171 Warning Label is a small but mighty piece of your safety gear. Over time, the stickers on your welder can get scratched up, burnt, painted over, or just peel off from the heat and grease of the shop. When that happens, you lose critical reminders about the dangers lurking inside the case. This genuine Miller replacement decal restores that factory-fresh look and, more importantly, keeps the warnings loud and clear.

This specific label is all about the big one: Electric Shock. Inside your welder, capacitors store massive amounts of energy even after you unplug the machine. The "5 MIN" marking on this label is a crucial reminder to let the machine sit and bleed off that power for five minutes before you even think about cracking the case open for maintenance or cleaning. Ignoring this can lead to serious injury or worse. Having this label clearly visible reminds you, your coworkers, and anyone else borrowing your rig to follow proper lockout/tagout procedures and respect the voltage.

Using genuine Miller parts means this sticker isn't going to curl up and fall off after a week. It's made with industrial-strength adhesive and tough materials that can handle the sparks, spatter, and grime of a real welding environment. It’s designed to stick to the metal casing of your power source and stay there. Applying it is simple: just clean the surface thoroughly with a degreaser to remove any oil or dirt, peel the backing, and stick it on. It’s a five-minute job that could save a life.

Don't let a safety inspector ding you for a missing sticker. Whether you are fixing up an old Miller machine to resell, or just doing your annual maintenance on the shop floor, replacing your warning labels is a cheap and easy way to show you take safety seriously. Keep your equipment professional, compliant, and safe with the correct OEM signage.
