PERSONAL PROTECTION 1. WEAR closed, non-flammable protective clothing, without pockets or turned up trousers. 2. WEAR a non-flammable welding helmet to shield the neck, face and sides of the head. Keep the protective lens clean. Replace the protective lens if broken or cracked. Position a transparent glass between the lens and the welding area.

VENTILATION WARNING Ventilate welding work areas adequately. Maintain sufficient air flow to prevent accumulation of explosive or toxic concentrations of gases. Welding operations using certain combinations of metals, coatings and gases generate toxic fumes. Use respiratory protection equipment in these circumstances. BEFORE welding, read and understand the Material Safety Data Sheet for the welding alloy.

POWER SOURCE CONNECTION Power Requirements This welder is designed to operate on a properly grounded 220 volt, 50/60 HZ, single-phase alternating current (AC) power source fused with a 50 amp time-delayed fuse or circuit breaker. (Please consult local codes for proper plug and receptacle applications.) A qualified electrician should verify the ACTUAL VOLTAGE at the receptacle into which the welder will be plugged and confirm that the receptacle is properly grounded.

it to excessive heat, flames or sparks. DO NOT strike it against other cylinders. Contact your gas supplier for more information about the use and handling of cylinders. WARNING DO NOT use the cylinder if you find oil, grease or damaged parts. Inform your gas supplier of this condition immediately.
WELDING TIPS 1. Keep the torch handle at 45° angle with respect to the work piece. Maintain the nozzle about 1/4” (6 mm) from the surface. 2. Move the torch handle with a careful and steady movement. 3. Avoid welding in areas with too much air movement. The air blows away the shielding gas from the weld pool and causes porosity in the weld.

SPEED-READ TABLE Weld condition setting directly influences the stability of the weld course and the weld. In order to obtain the good weld, the welding current and welding voltage should be set optimally. Generally, the setting of weld condition should be according to the welding diameter and the melting form as well as the production requirement.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY INFORMATION Make sure you read and understand all of the information and instructions contained in this manual BEFORE proceeding. The National Electrical Code, Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA) regulations, local industrial codes and local inspection requirements also provide a basis for equipment installation, use and service.
DAILY CHECKING To make best use of the machine, daily checking is very important. During the daily checking, please check in the order of torch, wire-feeding vehicle, all kinds of PCB, and the gas hole, and so on Remove the dust or renew some parts if necessary. To maintain the purity of the machine please use original welding parts.
