INSTALLATION
1. POWER REQUIREMENT - AC single phase 230V, 60 HZ with a 50 amp circuit breaker is
required. DO NOT OPERATE THIS UNIT if the ACTUAL power source voltage is less than 207 volts
AC or greater than 253 volts AC.

High voltage danger from power source! Consult a qualified electrician for proper
installation of receptacle. This welder must be grounded while in use to protect the
operator from electrical shock.

Do not remove grounding prong or alter the plug in any way. Do not use any adapters
between the welder's power cord and the power source receptacle. Make sure the
POWER switch is OFF when connecting your welder's power cord to a properly
grounded 230 VAC, 60 HZ, Single Phase, 50 Amp input power supply.
2. EXTENSION CORD - We do not recommend an extension cord because of the voltage drop they
produce. This drop in voltage can affect the performance of the welder. If you need to use an
extension cord, we recommend you check with a qualified electrician and your local electrical codes
for your specific area. Do not use an extension cord over 25 ft. in length.
OPERATION
High voltage danger from power source! Consult a qualified electrician for proper
installation of receptacle at the power source. This welder must be grounded while in use to
protect the operator from electrical shock. If you are not sure if your outlet is properly
grounded, have it checked by a qualified electrician. Do not cut off the grounding prong or
alter the plug in any way and do not use any adapter between the welder's power cord and
the power source receptacle. Make sure the POWER switch is OFF then connect your
welder's power cord to a properly grounded 230 VAC, 60 HZ, single phase, 50 amp power
source.
3. SETTING UP THE WORK PIECE
3.1 Welding positions
There are two basic positions, for welding: Flat and Horizontal. Flat welding is generally easier,
faster, and allows for better penetration. If possible, the work piece should be positioned so that the
bead will run on a flat surface.
3.2 Preparing the Joint
Before welding, the surface of work piece needs to be free of dirt, rust, scale, oil or paint or it will
create brittle and porous welds. If the base metal pieces to be joined are thick or heavy, it may be
necessary to bevel the edges with a metal grinder, the correct bevel should be around 60 degree.
