  • Page 3: Electric Shock Can Kill

    ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill. 3.a. The electrode and work (or ground) circuits are electrically “hot” when the welder is on. Do not touch these “hot” parts with your bare skin or wet clothing. Wear dry, hole-free gloves to insulate hands.
  • Page 4 WELDING SPARKS can cause fire or explosion. 6.a. Remove fire hazards from the welding area. If this is not possible, cover them to prevent the welding sparks from starting a fire. Remember that welding sparks and hot materials from welding can easily go through small cracks and openings to adjacent areas.

  • Page 10: Installation Instructions

    • Do not ground the machine to a pipe that carries explosive or combustible material. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ When this welder is mounted on a truck or trailer, its frame must be securely connected to the metal frame of the vehicle. Use a #8 or larger copper wire connected between the machine grounding stud and the frame of the vehicle.
  • Page 11: Pre-Operation Engine Service

    Listed below are copper cable sizes recommended for the rated current and duty cycle. Lengths stipulated are the distance from the welder to work and back to the welder again. Cable sizes are increased for greater lengths primarily for the purpose of minimizing cable volt- age drop.
  • Page 12: Angle Of Operation

    Also, locate the welder so that engine exhaust fumes are properly vented to an outside area.
  • Page 13: Connection Of Tig Module

    - order kit T12246. INSTRUCTIONS ADDITIONAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS Always operate the welder with the roof and case sides in place as this provides maximum protection from moving parts and assures proper cooling air flow.
