WARNING
supported and grounded prior to
beginning any electric arc welding
operation.
Spread out coiled welding cable
before use to avoid overheating and
damage to insulation.
Never immerse
wire or wire feed
gun in water. If welder becomes wet for
any reason, be absolutely certain it is
completely clean and dry before use!
Always shut equipment off and
unplug power cord prior to moving
the unit.
Always attach the work lead first.
Verify work piece is securely
grounded.
Always shut off electric arc welding
equipment when not in use and cut off
any excess wire from wire feed gun.
Never allow any part of the body to
touch flux-cored wire and ground or
grounded work piece at the same
time.
Awkward welding conditions and
positions can be electrically hazardous.
When crouching, kneeling or at
elevations, be sure to insulate all
conductive parts, wear appropriate
protective clothing and take
precautions to prevent injury from falls.
Never attempt to use this equipment
at current settings or duty cycles higher
than specified on equipment labels.
Never use an electric arc welder to
thaw frozen pipes.
Flying sparks and hot
metal can cause injury.
As welds cool, slag can
be thrown off. Take all
precautions described in
this manual to reduce
the possibility of injury from flying
sparks and hot metal.
Wear ANSI approved face shield or
safety glasses with side shield
protection when chipping or
grinding metal parts.
Wear ear plugs when welding
overhead to prevent spatter or slag
from falling into ears.

DANGER
Electric arc welding
operations produce
intense light and heat
and ultraviolet (UV)
rays. This intense light
and UV rays can cause injury to eyes and
skin. Take all precautions described in
this manual to reduce the possibility of
injury to eyes and skin.
All persons operating this equipment
or in the area while equipment is in
use, must wear protective welding gear
including: welding helmet or shield
with at least shade 10 lens, flame
resistant clothing, leather welding
gloves and full foot protection.
Never look at arc
welding operations
without eye protection as described
above. Never use a shade filter lens
that is cracked, broken, or rated below
number 10. Warn others in the area not
to look at the arc.
Electric arc welding
operations cause sparks
and heat metal to
temperatures that can
cause severe burns! Use
protective gloves and clothing when
performing any metal working
operation. Take all precautions described
in this manual to reduce the possibility
of skin and clothing burns.
Make sure all persons in welding
area are protected from heat, sparks
and ultraviolet rays. Use additional
face shields and flame resistant
barriers as needed.
Never touch work pieces until
completely cooled.
Heat and sparks
produced during
electric arc welding and
other metal working
operations can ignite
flammable and explosive materials!
Take all precautions described in this
manual to reduce the possibility of
flames and explosions.
Remove all flammable materials
within 35 feet (10.7 meters) of
welding arc. If removal is not
possible, tightly cover flammable
materials with fire proof covers.
