  • Page 3: Safety Suggestions

    3) SAFETY SUGGESTIONS Ultra-violet radiation can penetrate lightweight clothing, reflect from light-colored surfaces, and burn the skin and eyes. - Wear a heavy, pocket-less, long-sleeved shirt, cuff-less trousers, and high-topped work shoes. - Wear a full-faced welding helmet with a number ten or darker lens and a cap. Electric arc welding produces flying sparks and hot material, which can cause fire.
  • Page 4: Electric Shock Can Kill

    ELECTRIC SHOCK CAN KILL. Exposed, electrically hot conductors, other bare metal in the welding circuit, or ungrounded, electrically hot equipment can fatally shock a person whose body becomes a conductor. Do not stand, sit, lie, lean on, or touch a wet surface when welding. - Disconnect the power supply before working on the welding machine.

  • Page 11: Electrical Connections

    ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS Your MIG 2800i operates to its full capacity on single-phase, 240V power (208V-240V). The machine draws 30 amps (230 volts) from of the wall when operating at maximum output. We recommend a 30 Amp breaker for maximum performance. If you operate the machine on a generator, it needs to be a clean power generator with a minimum of 7500 watts.
