CYLINDER MAY EXPLODE IF DAMAGED:  Use only compressed gas cylinders containing the correct 
shielding gas for the process used and properly operating regulators designed for the gas and pressure 
used.  Always keep cylinders in an upright position securely chained to a fixed support.  Do not move or 
transport gas cylinders with the protection cap removed.  Do not allow the electrode, electrode holder, 
work clamp or any other electrically live part to touch a gas cylinder.  Gas cylinders must be located 
away from areas where they may be subjected to physical damage or the welding process including 
sparks and heat sources. 

 

HOT COOLANT CAN BURN SKIN:  Always be sure coolant is NOT HOT before servicing the cooler. 

 
The manufacturer reserves the Right to make changes and/or improvements in design without upgrade at the same time 
the operator’s manual.
