6049-C Nitro Fuzer Lite - 

Quick Start Guide

Getting started:

The shutdown procedure is VERY IMPORTANT for maximizing the 

life of your heating element. You MUST maintain airflow through 

the heating element until it is completely cool.

 You are in control 

of your heating element’s life!  

Polyvance cannot warrant the 

heating elements for this reason.

Welder Shut-down Procedure:

1. 

Assemble the welding cart and mount the 

6049 welder to the top shelf using 2 sheet 

metal screws (included). Connect the air 

manifold to the air inlet on the back of the 

welder with the green tubing.

2. 

 Unpack the accessories box.  Place 

the welding rod in the bins on top of the 

cart and thread the welding tips into the 

appropriate welder.

3.  

Place the nitrogen welder into the top 

holster and make sure there is nothing 

flammable near the hot end of welder.  

Place the airless welder into the lower 

holster.

4.  

Install your shop’s male air fitting in the 

bottom of the air manifold on the front of the 

cart.  If desired, you can install a hose to the 

front of the manifold to power air tools.

5. 

 Secure your nitrogen tank to the back of 

the cart with chains (included), move the top 

tank cradle as needed.  Mount the regulator 

to the nitrogen bottle. Connect the N

2

 inlet 

on the welder to the regulator with tubing.

6. 

 With the welder off, connect  your 

CLEAN, DRY, and OIL-FREE shop air 

supply to the manifold. 

Welder will not turn on.

•  Check power supply to welder.

•  Check wall outlet for 120V.

•  Make sure power strip is on.

•  Turn on the main power switch.

•  Check that all cords going to the welder are plugged in.

•  Check fuse on the back of the welder.

Fuse blows.

•  Check heating elements for shorts.  Remove the hot air element* and unplug the airless welder from the control panel. Check the resistance of the 

elements using an Ohm meter.

•   Hot air welder:  26.0 ± 1.0 Ohm

•   Airless welder:  53 ± 3.0 Ohms

•  If out of range, or an open circuit is indicated, replace the faulty heating element.

•  If elements check OK, turn the unit on with no elements installed.  If the fuse continues to blow, contact Polyvance.  If unit appears to function nor-

mally without the elements installed, plug in the airless welder only and test.  If unit continues to operate normally, shut power off, then reinstall the 

hot air element and test.  If unit trips circuit during either test, its safe to assume the fault lies within the last element installed.

Nitrogen welder does not heat or is not hot enough.

•  Turn the controller power “ON” by rotating the control knob clockwise.

•  Check the airflow, if the airflow is too high, the air/N

2

 temperature will be low; turn up the heat or reduce the airflow.  If the airflow is too low, the 

green “safe” light will not illuminate and power will not be sent to the nitrogen welder. Turn up the airflow until the green light illuminates. (If the 

green light doesn’t turn on over 10 LPM, contact Polyvance.)

•  If it still does not heat, check resistance of the heating element. (See above)

•  If no faults are found, contact Polyvance.

Airless welder does not heat.

•  Turn the controller power “ON” by rotating the control knob clockwise.

•  Check the temperature setting.  Low settings will produce very little heat.  

•  If still no heat, check resistance of the heating element (see above) or plug directly into a wall 

outlet. If it does not get hot, the element is faulty; if it gets hot, the switch is faulty. 

To shut off individual welders:

 

Airless Welder:

 

  

Turn the airless welder control knob 

counterclockwise until it clicks.

Nitrogen Welder:

Place welder into the top holster and 

turn the nitrogen welder control knob 

counterclockwise until it clicks

System Shut-down:

1. 

 Shut off main power on the back of the 

welder

2.

  Close the valve on the nitrogen bottle, 

but leave the compressed air connected 

and on.

3. 

 Allow the welder to completely cool 

before disconnecting the air supply.

CAUTION:  Always use 

CLEAN, DRY, and OIL-FREE 

air for the nitrogen welder.  

Water and/or oil inside 

the heating element will 

drastically shorten its life 

span.

Diagnostics:

Congratulations on purchasing one of the most versatile nitrogen plastic welders on the market.  Prior to 

powering up the welder, please read and follow the directions outlined in this booklet on the set-up and use 

your plastic welder.   Scan the QR codes on the included sheet using your smart phone to see how to use the 

welder.   Failure to read and fully understand these instructions or failure to watch the instructional videos will 

potentially cause damage to your welder, will increase your risk of injury, and may cause the welder to become 

a fire hazard.   Additional videos are available to watch on our website at:
