●

Store electrodes in a clean, dry

location with low humidity to

preserve the flux coating.

●

The receptacle used for the welder

must be properly grounded and the

welder must be the only load on the

power supply circuit. Refer to the

Circuit Amps chart on page 1 for

correct circuit capacity.

●

The use of an extension cord is not

recommended for arc welding

machines. Extension cord use will

significantly degrade the

performance of the welder.

HANDSHIELD (OPTIONAL)

1 . Cut detachable handle away from

shield. Trim the excess plastic to

remove sharp edges.

2 . Insert filter lens.

CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65

This product, when used for welding,

produces fumes or gases which contain

chemicals known to the State of

California to cause birth defects (or

other reproductive harm) and, in some

cases, cancer (California Health & Safety

Code Section 25249.5 et seq.).

The power cord and other cables on

this product contain chemicals,

including lead, known to the State of

California to cause [cancer and] birth

defects or other reproductive harm.

Wash hands after handling.

Do not breathe fumes that

are produced by the arc

welding operation. These

fumes are dangerous. If the

welding area cannot be adequately

ventilated, be sure to use an air-

supplied respirator.

●

Keep the head and face out of the

welding fumes.

●

Do not perform electric arc welding

operations on metals that are

galvanized or cadmium plated, or

contain zinc, mercury, or beryllium

without completing the following

p r e c a u t i o n s :

a . Remove the coating from the

base metal.

b . Make sure that the welding area

is well ventilated.

c . Use an air-supplied respirator.

Extremely toxic fumes are created

when these metals are heated.

The electromagnetic field

that is generated during arc

welding may interfere with

the operation of various

electrical and electronic devices such as

cardiac pacemakers. Persons using such

devices should consult with their

physician prior to performing any

electric arc welding operations.

●

Route the electrode and work

cables together and secure with

tape when possible.

●

Never wrap arc welder cables

around the body.

●

Always position the electrode and

work leads so that they are on t h e

same side of the body.

●

Exposure to electromagnetic fields

during welding may have other

health effects which are not known.

Always be sure

that the welding area

is secure and free of hazards (sparks, flames,

glowing metal or slag) prior to leaving. Be

sure that equipment is turned off and

electrode is removed. Be sure that cables

are loosely coiled and out of the way. Be

sure that all metal and slag has cooled.

Installation

L o c a t i o n

Selecting the proper location can

significantly increase performance,

reliability and life of the arc welder.

●

For best results locate the welder in

an environment that is clean and

dry. Dust and dirt in the welder

retain moisture and increase wear

of moving parts.
