1.2.    

GENERAL SAFETY

 

  

DANGER! Unplug the welder from the mains power supply before performing maintenance or service.

 

9

  

Keep the welder and cables in good working order and condition. Take immediate action to repair or replace damaged parts.

 

9

   Use genuine parts and accessories only. Unapproved parts may be dangerous and will invalidate the warranty. 

 

9

   Use an air hose to regularly blow out any dirt from the liner and keep the welder clean for best and safest performance.

 

9

  

Check and spray the gas cup and contact tip regularly with anti-spatter spray, available from your Sealey stockist. 

 

9

  

Locate welder in a suitable work area. Ensure that the area has adequate ventilation as welding fumes can be harmful.

 

9

  

Keep work area clean, tidy and free from unrelated materials. Also ensure the working area has adequate lighting and that a fire 

 

extinguisher is at hand.

 

‰

  

WARNING! Use welding head shield to protect eyes and avoid exposing skin to ultraviolet rays given off by electric arc. Wear  

 

safety welding gauntlets.

 

 

9

   Remove ill fitting clothing, remove ties, watches, rings and other loose jewellery and contain long hair.

 

9

  

Ensure the workpiece is correctly secured before welding.

 

9

  

Avoid unintentional contact with the workpiece. Accidental or uncontrolled use of the torch may be dangerous and will wear the nozzle. 

 

9

  

Keep unauthorised persons away from the work area. Any persons working within the area must wear a protective head shield and gloves.

 

9

  

Operators must receive adequate training before using the welder.

 

9

  

Stand correctly keeping a good footing and balance, ensure the floor is not slippery and wear non-slip shoes.

 

8

  

DO NOT

 operate the welder if it or the cables are damaged. 

 

8

  

DO NOT

 attempt to fit any unapproved torches or other components to the welder.

 

8

  

DO NOT

 get welder wet or use in damp or wet locations or areas where there is condensation.

 

  

DANGER! DO NOT weld near flammable solids, liquids or gases and DO NOT weld containers or pipes which have held  

 

 

flammable materials. Avoid welding materials which have been cleaned with chlorinated solvents or welding near such solvents.

 

8

  

DO NOT

 stand welder on a metal workbench, car bodywork or similar.

 

8

  

DO NOT

 touch any live metal parts of the torch or electrode while the machine is switched on.

 

8

  

DO NOT

 pull the welder by the cable, or the torch. Protect cables from sharp or abrasive items. 

DO NOT

 bend, strain or stand on  

 

 

cables or leads. Protect from heat. Long lengths of slack must be gathered and neatly coiled.

 DO NOT

 place cables where they  

 

 

endanger others.

 

8

  

DO NOT

 touch the torch or workpiece immediately after welding as they will be very hot. Allow to cool. 

 

8

  

DO NOT

 operate welder while under the influence of drugs, alcohol or intoxicating medication, or if tired.

 

9

   When not in use store the welder in a safe, dry, childproof area.

1.3. 

  

GAS SAFETY

 

 

9

  

Store gas cylinders in a vertical position only and ensure the  storage area is correctly secured.

 

8

  

DO NOT

 store gas cylinders in areas where the temperature may exceed 50°C. 

DO NOT

 use direct heat on a cylinder. Always keep   

 

gas cylinders cool.

 

8

 

 

DO NOT 

attempt to repair or modify any part of a gas cylinder or valve and 

DO NOT

 puncture or damage a cylinder.

 

8

  

DO NOT 

obscure or remove any official labels on a cylinder. Always check the gas identity before use. Avoid getting gas cylinders oily or  

 greasy.

 

8

 

 

DO NOT

 lift a cylinder by the cap, guard or valve. Always keep caps and guards in place and close valve when not in use.

2.  INTRODUCTION

 

Forced Air Cooling System allows high duty cycle. Professional contour grip, heat-proof non-live torch ensures no sparks until you  

 

press the trigger. Proven wire feed system for trouble-free welding. Welds stainless and aluminium too.

 IMPORTANT:

 

These instructions contain the information you require to prepare your machine for welding, together with a maintenance  

 

and a troubleshooting section. The instructions are not intended to teach you how to weld. If you have no experience, we recommend that  

 

you seek training from an expert source. MIG welding is relatively easy, but does require a steady hand and supervised practice on scrap  

 

metal, as it is only with continued practice that you will achieve the desired results.

4.  ASSEMBLY

4.1. 

 

 

HANDLE 

4.1.1.   

Take the straight metal handle section and identify the end which has a rectangular hole in it’s rounded top surface. See ‘C’ in fig.1-A. 

4.1.2.   

Ensuring that this hole is uppermost, insert the handle into the opening in the front of the plastic handle until the catch ‘D’ engages in  

 

the hole ‘C’ as shown in fig.1-B.

  

4.1.3. 

  

WHEELS. 

Referring to fig.2, attach a wheel (1) to axle (2) using a circlip (3) and insert a hub cap (4) into the centre of the wheel.

4.1.4.   

Raise the welder from the ground by approximately 70mm and insert the axle fixing plates (5) through the slots in the rear platform as  

 

shown below.

4.1.5. 

  

Slide the axle (2) underneath the rear platform and through the holes in the axle fixing plates. 

4.1.6.   

Slide the other wheel (1) over the protruding axle (2) and fix in place using a circlip (3). 

4.1.7.   

Push the other hub cap (4) into the centre of the wheel.

4.1.8. 

 

 

FOOT. 

Attach the bent metal foot to the underside of the welder just back from the front panel using the two self tapping screws provided.
