Maintenance
TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY,
FIRE AND BURNS:
Unplug the Welder,
rest the Gun on a heat-proof,
electrically non-conductive surface,
and allow all parts of the Welder to cool thoroughly
before service.
1. Periodically remove the Right and Left
side panels, and using compressed air,
blow out all dust from the interior.
2. Store in a clean and dry location.
3. For optimal weld quality, clean and
inspect the Contact Tip and Nozzle
before each use. See below.
Nozzle Inspection, Cleaning, and Replacement
1. Make sure that the entire Gun is completely
cool and that the Power Cord is unplugged
from the electrical outlet before proceeding.
2. Turn the Nozzle counterclockwise
while pulling to remove.
3. Scrub the interior of the Nozzle
clean with a wire brush.
4. Examine the end of the Nozzle. The end should be
flat and even. If the end is uneven, chipped, melted,
cracked, or otherwise damaged, the Nozzle will
adversely affect the weld and should be replaced.
5. Reinstall the Nozzle after inspecting
and cleaning the Contact Tip.
