SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR WELDERS (cont.) Disconnect from the power supply before replacing electrodes. Avoid direct contact with the welding circuit. Do not use the welder to defrost piping. Ensure the welder is placed on a level surface to prevent overturning. Provide adequate ventilation or a means for removal of the welding fumes produced (forced circulation using a blower or fan).
OPERATION Remove the welder and contents from the carton. Place the welder in an open area where the vents of the housing are not obstructed. Earth Clamp Prior to connecting the earth clamp (6) it may be necessary to clean the surface of the work piece using the metal brush.

OPERATION (cont.) ARC WELDERS DO NOT OPERATE CONTINOUSLY FOR EXTENDED PERIODS WITHOUT BEING ALLOWED TO COOL. DO NOT TURN YOUR WELDER OFF AS THE FAN WILL ASSIST IN REDUCING THE COOLING TIME. All Welders have a feature called a duty cycle. Duty cycle on a welder refers to the time in which the welder operates during normal welding.

OPERATION (cont.) Electricity The electricity flows through the electrode cable to the attached electrode. The electricity will not leave the electrode unless it touches an earthed object. Electricity always finds the fastest path to the earth. When the earth cable clamp is connected to the metal work piece a direct earth connection is created back to the welder.

SPECIFICATIONS - MODEL NO. MSH-115 6. Position the two pieces of metal you wish to join. 7. Hold the electrode approximately 2 cm away from the desired join area. Lower or hold the welding mask over your face. Lower the electrode slowly and proceed to strike the electrode tip against the desired join area on the work piece as if you are striking a match.
Keep the ventilation slots of the welder clear at all times and prevent foreign matter from entering the housing. Note: Ozito Industries will not be responsible for any damage or injuries caused by the repair of the welder by an unauthorised person or by mishandling of the welder.
