Setup for Solid Core (gas shielded) welding:
a. Remove the two Wingnuts securing the
cables. Connect the Black Ground Cable to the
–
negative ( ) Terminal using the Wingnut.
Connect the Red Cable to the positive (+)
Terminal using the other Wingnut.
Make sure the Cable connectors
sit flush in the grooves.
b. Determine which type of shielding gas
would be appropriate for the welding
you will do. Refer to the Settings Chart
on the inside of the Welder door.
c. With assistance, set the cylinder (not included)
onto a cabinet or cart near the Welder

valve opening. Close the cylinder valve.
e. Locate the Regulator (included) and close its
valve until it is loose, then thread Regulator

Note: When using C100 shielding gas, connect the
enclosed CGA 580/320 adapter to the inlet connection
of the Regulator and wrench tighten. Thread the
adapter onto the gas cylinder and wrench tighten.
