Turn the Power Switch (1C) to its “OFF” position. Clamp the bare end of the
selected electrode in the electrode holder.
Electrode Penetration Attributes
NI-CL Shallow For cast Iron
308L Shallow For stainless steel
6011 Deep Little preparation needed, high spatter
6013 Shallow All purpose
7014 Moderate Easy to use, quick
7018 Shallow Creates stronger welds
7024 Shallow For flat/fillet welds, easy to use, quick
TO PREVENT FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK:
Trim all welding wire off the end of the Welding Gun (20A). Insulate the MIG
Welding Gun (20A) wrapping it in electrical tape so that an arc is not acciden-
tally ignited. Coil Welding Gun cable up away from all conductive objects.
While holding the Electrode Holder (21A), with the electrode clearly out of the way
of any grounded objects, turn the Power Switch (1C) to its “ON” position.
Orient yourself on the area to be welded, then place a Face Shield over your
eyes.
HOLDING THE WELDING TORCH/ELECTRODE HOLDER
(FOR ALL WELDING TYPES)
WARNING! Never look at the ignited arc without ANSI-approved,
arc-shaded, eye protection in a full face shield with appropriate
shaded lens. Permanent eye damage or blindness can occur. Skin
burns can occur. Never breathe arc fumes. (See page 8.)
Hold the Welding Torch/Electrode Holder in one hand and a one-handed face shield
in the other. If a hands-free welding shield is used, then both hands can be used
to control the Torch/Holder.
Starting a weld arc (for stick (arc) welding only):
There are two usual methods to ignite an arc when stick welding: scratch or tap.
Scratch – stroke the Electrode across work piece like striking a match, then lift
electrode slightly.
Tap – Bring electrode straight down against workpiece and then back up slight-
ly.
If either of these methods are done properly, an arc is ignited.
If the arc goes out, the electrode was lifted too far from the workpiece.
