Setup Guide
Getting Started
CONNECT THE BATTERY WIRE.
The pedal is purposefully shipped with the wires from the lithium ion
battery in the pedal to the transmitter disconnected for safety and to
preserve the initial charge on the battery.
To Connect the Battery to the Transmitter:
•
Match up the connector ends by pairing up the tabs on the
connector and slide them fully together.
•
Tuck the wire down beside the transmitter.
•
Do not leave the wires or the connectors sticking out. The gap
beside the transmitter allows room for both the wire and con-
nectors to be pushed down beside the transmitter.
CHARGE THE BATTERY
The battery carries a charge from the factory that was used to pair the
transmitter and receiver. However, before use, the battery should be
charged. Each charge can last up to 40 days between charges with
average use on 8 hour shifts. If the pedal acts irregularly, or the
Dongle/Receiver indicates a low battery charge recharge the battery.
To Recharge the Battery:
•
Set the transmitter toggle switch on the front of the pedal to the
“
OFF
”
position. (See Foot Pedal/Transmitter Assembly Diagram.)
•
Locate the charger in the packaging. (See Foot Pedal Charger
Diagram.)
•
Connect the charger to the charging port on the front of the
pedal.
•
Plug the charger into a suitable 120V (100
-
240V permissible)
receptacle.
•
The LED light at the bottom of the charger will turn red.
•
Charge for at least 4 hours until the LED turns from red to
green.
•
Once the LED turns green, remove the charger.
•
Keep the pedal switched to
“
OFF
”
until the pedal is ready for
use. Remember to turn the switch to
“
OFF
”
position when not
in use or when stored to preserve battery life and prevent acci-
dental operation of the pedal.
CONNECT THE RECEIVER DONGLE TO WELDER.
The Receiver/Dongle assembly requires 100
-
240V power to operate.
In the North American Market, this will typically be used with a stand-
ard NEMA 5
-
15 120V outlet. The Dongle may be powered with an
IMPORTANT!
Charge the pedal only when the toggle switch is placed in the off
position. Do not use the pedal with the charger connected. Keep
the pedal stored with the switch in the
“
OFF
”
position to prevent
discharge of the batteries. As a
“
best practice
”
switch the pedal
switch to the
“
OFF
”
position whenever the pedal is not be used or
left unattended to prevent accidental arcing.

DANGER!
When left unattended, when work is completed, or when the pedal
is otherwise not being used for welding purposes such as in trans-
porting or carrying, turn the pedal/transmitter switch to the
“
OFF
”
position to prevent accidental activation. Shock, burn, arc flashing
and/or injury could result from accidental activation of the pedal.
Damage to high value parts may result as well if torch is left on
work and the pedal is accidentally activated and an arc starts.
