Manual 0-5338

WARNING

Before connecting the work clamp to the work piece, make sure you have ceased feeding wire so premature

arcing will not occur.
Secure the shielding gas cylinder in an upright position by chaining it to a suitable stationary support to prevent

falling or tipping.

CAUTION

Loose welding terminal connections can cause overheating and result in the male plug being fused in the terminal.
