GENERAL DESCRIPTION
This unit is a limited duty power source for manual arc welding. The power for the arc comes from an
electronic circuit know as an inverter. The welding current output can be adjusted by means of a control
knob on the front panel.
It is suitable for welding up to 9mm in mild steel using 4 mm welding rods. It is not suitable for larger
welding rods nor use with generators.
Caution!
Using this product with welding rods greater than 4 mm or with a generator will void
your warranty.
Each unit is fitted with a thermal protector which switches off the welder if the transformer
overheats
and self-resets when its temperature has cooled to a normal level.
A yellow pilot lamp in the front panel will light to indicate thermal protection intervention.
