common sense. Do not operate any tool
when tired.
Check for damaged parts.
Before using
any tool, any part that appears damaged
should be carefully checked to determine
that it would operate properly and perform
its intended function. Check for alignment
and binding of moving parts; any broken
parts or mounting fixtures; and any other
condition that may affect proper operation.
Any part that is damaged should be properly
repaired or replaced by a qualified
technician. Do not use the tool if any switch
does not turn on and off properly.
Guard against electric shock.
Prevent
body contact with grounded surfaces such
as pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigerator
enclosures.
Replacement parts and accessories.
When servicing, use only identical
replacement parts. Use of any other parts
will void warranty. Only use accessories
intended for use with this welder. Approved
accessories
are
available
from
www.uwelding.com.
Do not operate tool if under the influence
of alcohol or drugs.
Read warning labels
on prescriptions to determine if your
judgment or reflexes are impaired while
taking drugs. If there is any doubt, do not
operate the welder.
Maintenance.
For your safety, service and
maintenance should be performed regularly
by a qualified technician.
Use proper size and type extension cord.
If an extension cord is required, it must be
of the proper size and type to supply the
correct current to the welder without heating
up. Otherwise, the extension cord could
melt and catch fire, or cause electrical
damage to the welder. This welder requires
use of an extension cord of 20amps
minimum capability up to 30 feet, with a wire
size rated at 12 AWG. Longer extension
cords require larger size wire. If you are
using the welder outdoors, use an extension
cord rated for outdoor use, signified by “WA”
on the jacket. Performance of this welder
may vary depending on condition in local
line voltage. Extension cord usage may also
affect welder performance.
The warnings, cautions and
instructions discussed in this
instruction manual cannot cover
all possible conditions and situations that
may occur. It must be understood, by the
operator, that commonsense and caution
are factors, which cannot be built into this
product, but must be supplied by the
operator.
