NOTE

:
Wide safety margins provided by the design allow the Power Source will withstand short term overloads without
failure. The Welding Setup Data values should be used as a guide only then fine tune one or more of the Welding Setup Data
values to suit the welding application.
Before connecting the welding cables make sure the Input Power Supply is switched off. Remove any packaging mate-
rial prior to use. Do not block the air vents at the front or rear of the Power Source.
STICK Setup Sequence
Refer to
SECTION 5 –
OPERATION
for explanation of controls.
1
Switch the Power Switch (located on the rear panel)
to OFF.
2
Connect the leads as follows:
a.
Earth Clamp Lead to the Negative Output Terminal
b.
Electrode Holder Lead to the Positive Output Ter-
minal
c.
Fix the Stick Electrode into the Electrode Holder
NOTE
15
: Do not rest the Stick Electrode on the earth
clamp or work piece. Consult the electrode manufac-
tures packaging for the correct electrode polarity.
3
Plug the Power Source into Input Supply Voltage.
4
Switch the Mains Power Supply ON & Power Switch
(located on the rear panel) ON. This will immediately
energize the Power Source up to the output terminals
including the Stick Electrode in the electrode holder.
5
Rotate Knob then PUSH to SELECT
a.
Welding Mode Selection
to STICK
b.
Welding Electrode Selection
to E60xx or 70xx
c.
Welding Diameter Selection
to
3/32’’ / 1/8’’ (215MP/250MP) on 120 VAC
3/32’’ / 1/8’’ / 5/32’’ (215MP) on 208/230/240 VAC
3/32’’ / 1/8’’ / 5/32’’ / 3/16’’ (250MP) on 208/230/240 VAC
d.
Thickness
to Plate thickness to be welded
6
If needed adjust Arc Force Control Knob.
7
Commence welding. If needed, adjust the Weld Am-
perage ‘‘A’’ Control Knob to obtain the desired weld-
ing condition.
8
Leave Power Switch ON for 3 minutes to cool down
internal components after welding completed.
9
Switch the ON/OFF Switch (located on the rear panel)
to the OFF position.
POWER DOWN
the Power Source by switching the ma-
chines Power Switch OFF then unplugging the Input Power
Cord from the wall socket or wall disconnect device. Use
established Lockout/Tagout procedures, refer to OSHA 29
CFR 1910.147, when disconnecting the Welder’s Input
Power Cord from the Input Supply Voltage.
