• Keep your head out of fumes.
• Use ventilation or exhaust to remove
fumes from breathing zone.
WELDING SPARKS can cause fire
or explosion.
• Keep flammable material away.

When power is applied to the Power Wave
®
E500 the machine
electronics will complete a power up sequence. The power up
sequence will take a minute for the power source and feeder to
become ready. During this time the status lights may flash green or
red/green. This is a normal situation as the machine goes through
the power up sequence.
DUTY CYCLE
The Power Wave
®
E500 is capable of welding at a 100% duty
cycle (continuous welding) at 450 Amps rated output.
The 60% duty cycle rating is 500 amps (based off of a ten minute
cycle – 6 minutes on time and 4 minutes off time). The maximum
output of the machine is 500 amps.
The Power Wave ® E500 is also rated for Desert Duty, elevated
temperature operation, in a 55°C ambient. The machine is de-
rated for this application.
