note:
If Welder is used too long, the Overload
Indicator lights up and the unit automatically
shuts down. The Welder automatically returns
to service after cooling off. Should this occur,
rest the MIG Gun on an electrically non-
conductive, heat-proof surface, such as a
concrete slab, away from the ground clamp.
allow the Welder to cool with the
power Switch on, so that the internal
Fan will help cool the Welder.
When the Overload Indicator is no longer
lit and the Welder can be used again, use
shorter welding periods and longer rest
periods to help prevent needless wear.
7.
After welding the test weld on a piece
of scrap for a few seconds,
stop, and
check your progress. Clean, then compare
your weld’s appearance with the diagrams
and descriptions in the
Welding tips
section
starting on the next page. After making any
necessary adjustments, continue to weld
while carefully following the DUTY CYCLE
guidelines as explained on page 18.
caUtion! Weld will be hot, do not touch.
8.
When welding is complete,
set the
Mig gun down on a heat-proof, electrically
non-conductive surface.
Turn the Power Switch OFF.
9. Allow Welder to cool down, then
unplug the Power Cord.
10. Remove Ground Clamp from workpiece
or table and disconnect MIG Gun.
11. Respool wire by clipping wire, removing gas
nozzle/contact tip on MIG Gun, releasing Idler
Arm on Wire Feed mechanism, and rotating
the Wire Spool counterclockwise. Be sure
to securely hold wire as it is being respooled
because the end of wire has a tendency to
quickly unravel once it clears the wire feeder.
12.
Mig only:
close shielding gas cylinder valve
securely.
Remove Regulator and
replace cap. Disconnect Gas Hose from
Welder. Store and secure gas cylinder.
