Power Light 

The Power Indicator Light is on when the machine is turned on. 

Thermal Protection Indicator Light 

When the thermal overload indicator is on, it indicates the machine has exceeded the allowable 

internal temperature. The machine automatically turns off welding output but the fan will remain on 

to cool down the internal components. When the internal temperature had decreased, the machine 

will automatically turn welding output back on. 

Current Adjustment 

Current adjustment is on the front panel of the machine. It has infinite current output adjustment 

from 20 to 200 Amps. 

Positive Output Connector 

This is the connector for the electrode holder and cable, most often, when STICK welding. When 

this machine is used for TIG welding, this connector is for the grounding cable. 

Negative Output Connector 

This is the connector for the ground cable and clamp, most often, when STICK welding. When this 

machine is used for TIG welding, this connector is for the TIG torch. 

Ground Cable and Clamp 

The ground cable and clamp are attached to the work piece to complete the circuit allowing the flow 

of current needed to weld. 

Welding Cable and Electrode Holder 

One end of the cable is connected to the output connectors of the welder. The electrode is held in 

the electrode holder for welding. 

Power Cord

 

The power cord connects the welder to the 230V volt power supply.    Plug the 50 amp plug into a 

230V/50Amp receptacle to supply power to the welder. 

 

 

 

INSTALLATION 

1.  POWER  REQUIREMENT  -  AC  single  phase  230V  (220-240V),  60  HZ  with  a  50  amp  circuit 

breaker  is  required.  DO  NOT  OPERATE  THIS  UNIT  if  the  ACTUAL  power  source  voltage  is  less 

than 220 volts AC or greater than 240 volts AC. 

 

 

 

High voltage danger from power source! Consult a qualified electrician for proper 
installation of receptacle. This welder must be grounded while in use to protect the 

operator from electrical shock.

 

 

Do not remove grounding prong or alter the plug in any way. Do not use any adapters 
between the welder's power cord and the power source receptacle. Make sure the 

POWER switch is OFF when connecting your welder's power cord to a properly 

grounded 230 VAC, 60 HZ, Single Phase, 50 Amp input power supply.
