ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS (CONTINUED)
WARNING!
EXERCISE EXTREME CAUTION - RISK OF FIRE AND/OR ELECTRIC SHOCK!
The following steps require powering the Welder. Do not touch
anything with Torch Handle or Welding Wire or an arc will be ignited.
Do not touch internal components of while unit is plugged in.
After having certified electrician install power cord plug, insert the Power Cord
(1A) into its 230 volt, grounded, electrical outlet. Turn Power Switch (1C) to
ON.
Point Torch Handle away from all objects. Squeeze Trigger Switch (13E) on Torch
Handle until Welding Wire feeds through the Head Tube (4E) of the Torch Handle
about 2 inches. If necessary, move the Torch Handle slightly in a circular motion
to help feed the Welding Wire properly out of the Head Tube. (See Figure E.)
NOTE: If the Welding Wire does not feed properly, and the Spool is stationary,
turn the Welder OFF. Unplug the Welder. Slightly tighten the Handle (4D) on the
Wire Feed Assembly. (See Figure D.)
To check the tension on the Wire Feed Assembly, feed the Welding Wire against
a piece of scrap wood from 2 to 3 inches away. If the Wire stops instead of bend-
ing, turn the Welder OFF. Unplug the unit from its electrical outlet. Then, slightly
tighten the Handle (4D) on the Wire Feed Assembly.
Reminder: When installing wire of a different size or composition, you will also
need to change wire settings, set the gun polarity, and possibly install a gas cyl-
inder.
