SAFETY WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS 

PLEASE 

READ 

AND 

UNDERSTAND  THE  FOLLOWING 

SAFETY 

HIGHLIGHTS. 

BE     

SURE      THAT      ALL  INSTALLATION, 

OPERATION,  MAINTENANCE  AND  REPAIR 

PROCEDURES ARE PERFORMED ONLY BY 

QUALIFIED  INDIVIDUALS.  ARC  AND  TIG 

WELDING CAN BE HAZARDOUS. PROTECT 

YOURSELF AND OTHERS FROM POSSIBLE 

SERIOUS  INJURY  OR  DEATH.  KEEP 

CHILDREN  AWAY.  PACEMAKER  USERS 

SHOULD  CONSULT  WITH  THEIR  DOCTOR 

BEFORE OPERATING. 

WHEN USING THE WELDER, ALL 

BASIC  SAFETY  PRECAUTIONS 

SHOULD ALWAYS BE FOLLOWED 

TO  REDUCE  THE  RISK  OF  PERSONAL 

INJURY AND DAMAGE TO EQUIPMENT. 

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE 

USING THIS WELDER. 

Keep  work  area  clean.

  Cluttered  areas 

invite injuries. 

Observe  work  area  conditions.

  Do  not 

use machine or power tools in damp or wet 

locations. Do not expose to rain. Keep work 

area  well-lit.  Do  not  use  electrically-

powered tools in the presence of flammable 

gases or liquids. 

Keep children away.

 Children must never 

be allowed in the work area. Do not let them 

handle machines, tools or extension cords. 

Store  idle  equipment. 

When  not  in  use, 

tools  must  be  stored  in  a  dry  location  to 

inhibit rust. 

Always lock up

 tools and keep them out of 

the reach of children. 

Do not force tool. 

It will do the job better 

and  safer  at  the  rate  for  which  it  was 

intended.  Do  not  use  inappropriate 

attachments  in  an  attempt  to  exceed  the 

tool capacity. 

Use  the  right  tool  for  the  job.

  Do  not 

attempt to force a small tool or attachment 

to  do  the  work  of  a  larger  industrial  tool. 

There are certain applications for which this 

welder  was  designed.  Do  not  modify  this 

welder, and do not use this welder for any 

other purposes for which it was not intended. 

Dress properly.

 Do not wear loose clothing 

or jewelry as they can be caught in moving 

parts. 

Protective, 

flame 

retardant, 

electrically  non-conductive  clothing  and 

non-slip footwear are recommended when 

working.  Wear  restrictive  hair  netting  to 

contain long hair. 

Use eye and ear protection.

 Always wear 

ANSI-approved, Arc-shaded, impact safety 

face shield (welding helmet). Always use a 

full-face shield when welding. Always wear 

ANSI-approved eyewear under face shield, 

and while in the workplace. Wear a NIOSH-

approved  dust  mask  or  respirator  when 

working  around  metal,  chemical  dusts, 

fumes and mists. 

Do  not  over  reach. 

Keep  proper  footing 

and balance at all times. Do not reach over 

or across running machines. 

Maintain tools with care. 

Keep tools sharp 

and clean for better and safer performance. 

Follow  instructions  for  lubricating  and 

changing  accessories.  Inspect  tool  cords 

periodically  and,  if  damaged,  have  them 

repaired  by  an  authorized  technician. The 

handles must be kept clean, dry, and free 

from oil and grease at all times. 

Disconnect power. 

Unplug tool when not 

in use.
