4.

Insert the bare end of an 

AC

 Electrode (not included) securely in the Electrode

Holder (27).  

(See Figure I.)

5.

While holding the Electrode Holder (27) with its Electrode clearly out of the
way of any grounded objects, turn the Power Switch 

ON/OFF

 (9A) to its

 “ON”

position.  

(See Figure I.)

6.

        WARNING!   Prevent eye injury and burns.  

Wearing and using personal

safety clothing and safety devices reduce the risk of injury.  

Always 

wear ANSI

approved safety impact eye  goggles with the Face Shield (26) and its #10 Lens.
Always keep the Face Shield between your eyes and the welding process to
avoid eye injury. 

(Read and understand ALL 

“Specific Safety Rules”

beginning on page 5 of this manual.)

7.

Stroke the area to be welded with the Electrode to ignite the arc.  Never tap
the Electrode into the welding surface to ignite the arc.  Doing so will damage the
external coating on the Electrode which prevents oxygen in the air from coming
into contact with the molten metal, causing it to oxidize.  

(See Figure I.)

8.

Once the arc is ignited, tilt the Electrode forward at an angle of approximately
30 degrees and hold it at a distance from the workpiece equal to the diameter of
the Electrode.  

(See Figure I.)

9.

NOTE:  

The Thermal Protection Indicator Light (8) will illuminate if the Welder

overheats and the Thermostat automatically trips.  If the Indicator Light
illuminates, stop welding.  Turn off and unplug the Welder.  Wait at least 20
minutes for the unit to cool down.  Recheck your Electrode selection and Current
Switch 

MIN/MAX

 (9B) setting to determine if they are correct for the welds being

made.  When restarting, either use the 

MIN

 amperage setting, or allow more time

between welds to avoid overheating the Welder.  Continued overheating can
cause severe damage to the Welder.  

(See Figure I.)

10.

When the weld is complete, lift the Electrode away from the workpiece and
any other grounded object.  Turn the Power Switch 

ON/OFF

 (9A) to its

 “OFF”

position.  Unplug the Power Cord Plug from its electrical outlet.  Remove the
Electrode from the Electrode Holder (27).  Then, place the Electrode Handle on a
nonflammable surface to cool (i.e., concrete floor).  

(See Figure I.)

11.

When storing the Welder, allow the unit to completely cool.  Then store the
Welder in a safe, clean, dry, location out of reach of children and other
non-authorized people.
