WARNING!
Potential hazard that could result in serious injury or loss of life.
• Always switch off the power and unplug the power cord from the AC power
source before installing the wire.
• Remove any wire or wire spool that is rusty.
• Do not weld metal thinner than 18 gauge, as doing so may burn the metal.
• Before installing, remove any old wire from the MIG gun assembly to prevent
the wire from being jammed inside the gun liner.
• Use extreme caution when removing the welding nozzle, as the contact tip
on the welder is live whenever the torch trigger is pulled.
