CARING FOR THE ENVIRONMENT
Power tools that are no longer usable should not be disposed of
with household waste but in an environmentally friendly way. Please
recycle where facilities exist. Check with your local council authority
for recycling advice.
Recycling packaging reduces the need for landfill and raw materials.
Reuse of recycled material decreases pollution in the environment.
Please recycle packaging where facilities exist. Check with your
local council authority for recycling advice.
Spare parts can be ordered from the Special Orders Desk
at your local Bunnings Warehouse.

REMEDY
GENERAL OPERATION
No Power
Power supply
Test supply with another product, avoid using
extension leads.
Circuit breaker tripped
Check the rating of the curcuit breaker on the supply
and other appliances connected to the circuit.
The welder is a high power device and it is
recommended that is be the only appliance on the
circuit to ensure it has enough power to operate.
Difficulty starting arc
Incorrect cable connection
Check earth and eletrode cables are in correct
terminals. Check cable conenctions to welder are
secure, rotate clockwise until firm.
Earth clamp conenction not adequate
Check earth clamp has good connection to material
being welded. Surface for clamp conenction needs
to be bare metal, remove rust or paint.
Welding technique
Hold electrode at correct angle, practice on scrap
material
Welder cuts out
Thermal overload active
The thermal overload light on the front panel will
be on and the welder will not operate until cooled
down and the light goes out. This is normal in heavy
welding, allow the welder to cool down.
ARC WELDING
Poor welding
Incorrect or wet welding electrodes
Select electrode type to suit material, electrodes
need to be dry.
Sticking welding
electrode
Settings
Increase current to recommended
Material
Clean area being welded to bare metal
Electrode type and size
Check the electrode type and size is appropriate for
the material being used.
Electrode damage
Replace with new welding rod
Welding current setting too high
Excessive welding
electrode consumption
Reduce welding current
Electrode size to small for material
Change to larger electrode
Thermal Overload
All Welders have a feature called a duty cycle.
Duty cycle on a welder refers to the time in which the
welder operates during normal welding.
A welder can only weld for a certain continuous period of
time before it requires to cool down.
If the internal components of the welder should become
hot the welder could overheat. If the welder overheats the
Thermal Overload Protection feature will automatically
shut down the welder.
THIS CAN OCCUR IN HEAVY USE AND DOES NOT
INDICATE A FAULT.
The Welder will cease to weld and the Thermal Overload
LED light will turn on. This LED indication light is just
to inform you that your welder is becoming too hot and
requires to cool down to protect the internal components
of the welder. Do Not turn your welder Off as the welder
has an internal cooling fan and this will assist your
welder to cool down quicker. Reducing the cooling time
will enable you to get back to your welding job quicker.
Depending on how many Amps or how heavy the welding
you are doing the cooling time may take up to 10 Minutes
for your welder to cool down so you can return to your
welding job.
IF YOUR WELDER OVERHEATS AND THE THERMAL
OVERLOAD PROTECTION ENGAGES DO NOT TURN
YOUR WELDER OFF AS THE FAN WILL ASSIST IN
REDUCING THE COOLING TIME.
