7. Keep cords dry, free of oil and grease, and protected from hot metal and sparks.
8. Turn off all equipment when not in use.
9. For water-cooled equipment, check and repair or replace any leaking hoses or fittings. Do not use any
electrical equipment if you are wet or in a wet area.
10. Use only well-maintained equipment. Repair or replace damaged parts at once.
WARNING! To reduce risk of electric shock, be certain that the plug is connected to a properly
grounded outlet.
11. Do not come into physical contact with the welding current circuit. The welding current circuit includes
the workpiece or any conductive material in contact with it.
12. Insulate yourself from the electrical current and ground using dry insulating mats or covers big enough to
prevent physical contact with the workpiece or ground.
13. Disconnect the tool from the power source before cleaning, servicing, changing parts/accessories or
when not in use.
14. Protect yourself against electric shocks when working on electric equipment. Avoid body contact with
grounded surfaces. There is an increased chance of electrical shock if your body is grounded.
15. Do not expose the tool to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of
electric shock.
16. Do not disconnect the power cord in place of using the ON/OFF switch on the tool. This will prevent an
accidental startup when the power cord is plugged into the power supply.
17. Do not alter any parts of the tool or accessories. All parts and accessories are designed with built-in safety
features that may be compromised if altered.
18. Make certain the power source conforms to requirements of your equipment (see Specifications).
19. When wiring an electrically driven device, follow all electrical and safety codes, as well as the most recent
Canadian Electrical Code (CE) and Canadian Centre for Occupational Health and Safety (CCOHS).
WARNING! All wiring should be performed by a qualified electrician.
ELECTRIC TOOL PRECAUTIONS
This equipment requires a dedicated 120 volt, 13.5 amp single-phase alternating current circuit equipped with
a similarly rated circuit breaker or slow blow fuse. Do not run other appliances, lights, tools or equipment on
the circuit while operating this welding unit.
1. Do not use a power tool with a broken or inoperative trigger/power switch or safety guard.
2. Make sure the power switch is in the OFF position before connecting the tool to the power supply.
3. Always use both hands when operating the tool, unless the tool is designed for single hand use.
4. Hold the tool by the insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where it may contact
hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with a ‘live’ wire will electrify exposed metal parts and shock
the operator.
5. Do not allow the tool's motor to overload and/or overheat by taking work breaks.
6. When the tool is in operation, keep hands away from the welding area it is being applied to.
7. Do not use the tool on any material containing asbestos.
8. Do not touch the welded surface immediately after use. The surface will be hot and may cause an injury.
9. Do not allow persons who are not familiar with the tool or have not read these instructions to use the tool.
