Don't try, to break the metal off, when trying to remove welded portions off cast metal, you will probably break the casting, which has had it's surface damaged by the heat of welding.

Get a good full helmet with breathing filters, and face shield, leather gauntlet gloves, and cut the welds with metal cutting discs on a 9" depressed centre, electric mobile grinder, with metal cutoff blade ( 7" will do ).
You can't go round corners, so you will have to cut chunks off, watch the sparks !.
