Wear a NIOSH-approved respirator

to avoid breathing arc fumes.
Stroke the area to be welded with the

11.

Electrode to ignite the arc. Never tap

the Electrode into the welding sur-

face to ignite the arc. This damages

its external coating on the Electrode

which prevents oxygen in the air from

coming into contact with the molten

metal, causing it to oxidize.
Once the arc is ignited, tilt the Elec-

12.

trode forward at an angle of approxi-

mately 30° and hold it at a distance

from the welding object equal to the

diameter of the Electrode.
NotE:

13.

If too much current is drawn

from the Welder, the internal Thermal

Overload Protector will activate. The

Yellow “Overheating” Light (5) will

illuminate, and the Welder will auto-

matically shut off until it cools down.

Please wait until the welder automati-

cally restarts after the yellow “over-

heating” light turns off.

(See Figures B and c.)
When the weld is complete, lift the

14.

Electrode clearly away from any

grounded object. Then turn the

Power Switch (16)

oFF.

(See Figure c.)
Unplug the Power Cord (17) from its

15.

electrical outlet.
Remove the Ground Clamp (9) from

16.

the workpiece it is clamped onto.

Then remove the Electrode from the

Electrode Holder (8).

(See Figure a.)
Allow all components of the Welder

17.

to completely cool. Then clean and

store the Welder indoors out of reach

of children and other unauthorized

persons.
IMPORTANT: Refer to the included

18.

“Weld Diagnoses” pamphlet for tips

and suggestions regarding proper

welding.
