Page 10: Overload Protection To Wire Feeder
OVERLOAD PROTECTION FOR POWER SUPPLY TO WELDING Your MIG175 is equipped with a temperature controller as well as an overload breaker. These two protection devices will protect the welding machine whenever the output exceeds the maximum out- put. If the output is exceeded, the unit will not supply voltage and the wire feeder will shut down (the fan will continue to run to cool the unit). - Page 11 NOTES Visit Eastwood.com to see our welding videos!
