Operating Instructions
7.0 Safety and tips.
Always use the red viewing filter to protect the eyes from the welding flashes. A bench lamp positioned
over the welder will permit the work and carbon electrode tip to be easily seen.
Accidental over-setting of the energy level can result in flying particles and it is strongly recommended
that the welding goggles supplied are used at all times.
Before starting a welding session when using argon, purge any air from the shield system by holding
the argon switch in the 'PURGE' position for a few seconds.
If the pliers become pitted or soiled, clean the faces by pulling through a piece of folded fine emery
paper whilst applying slight pressure to the handles.
Keep a notebook by the welder and make a record of the settings for each type of job, noting wire size,
materials, energy range and meter reading.
Where a particular size of wire can be welded on one of two or even three energy ranges, choose the
range that will give the highest meter reading.
