NOTE:
-There are two separate gas connections on the back of this unit. If connecting the shielding gas for
the standard MIG torch, use the gas connection for the MIG torch on the back of the unit. If
connecting the shielding gas for the Spool Gun, use the gas connection for the Spool Gun on the
back of the unit.
6.3 Connect the other end of the gas hose to the gas hose connection on the supplied
regulator/flow gauge. Use a wrench to snug up the connection.
6.4 Before installing the regulator, it is good practice to make certain no debris is in the gas
bottle connection. Rotate the bottle so the gas connection is not pointing toward you or any
other person. Turn the valve on the gas bottle clockwise and quickly close. This quick thrust of
gas will clear any debris in the connection. Connect the regulator to the gas bottle connection.
Use a wrench to snug up the connection.

6.5 Open the Gas Bottle Valve on the cylinder of gas.
6.6 Turn the Gas Flow Adjuster on the regulator so that the gas flow rate is set at
approximately 20 CFH. Make certain you are reading the correct scale on the gauge.
NOTE:
Slowly open the cylinder valve by turning it counterclockwise until the cylinder pressure
gauge registers on the first gauge of the regulator. Turn the adjustment knob clockwise (right) slowly
to increase gas flow to 20 CFH. To reduce the gas flow, turn the adjustment counterclockwise (left).
The gas valve is located on the back panel of the welder and activated by the trigger. Gas flow
should be heard when the trigger is activated. No gas flow will result in a harsh arc with excessive
spatter, a smooth weld bead will be difficult to obtain. Avoid unnecessary gas loss by closing the
tank valve when finished welding.
