INTENDED USE
The 7500K Welder/Generator is a 6000 Watt (6600 Watt Peak) generator and DC only stick
welder with an exceptionally smooth stick welding performance. It is intended for use for welding
steel, stainless steel, cast iron and hard surfacing using electrodes from 1/16 inch to 5/32 inch.
Stick welding gives the operator the flexibility to use this welder for mobile applications,
including outdoor applications. Stick electrodes contain a flux, making welding easy and does
not require the use of a separate shielding gas which can be blown away by the wind in outdoor
applications. Since this welder does not use shielding gas, the operator will not require to have
or maintain shielding gas bottles, a regulator or gas hose. TIG welding does require the use of
Argon shielding gas. The shielding gas replaces the flux that is used in stick welding, providing a
more controlled and cosmetic weld. However, TIG welding is limited to areas inside or where
wind can be controlled, preventing the shielding gas from blowing away.
Since the 7500K Welder/Generator is an engine powered welder, it does NOT require a source
of input power. The generator provides the required input electrical power needed to operate the
welder. This generator also provides auxiliary power that may be needed to perform other tasks
such as lighting, grinding or power tool operation. A total of 6000 watts of auxiliary power is
available while not welding.
