POWER SOURCE CONNECTION
POWER REQUIREMENTS
This welder is designed to operate on a
properly grounded 120 volt, 60Hz, single-
phase alternating current (ac) power source
fused with a 20 amp time delayed fuse or
circuit breaker. It is recommended that a
qualified electrician verify the ACTUAL
VOLTAGE at the receptacle into which the
welder will be plugged and confirm that the
receptacle is properly fused and grounded.
The use of the proper circuit size can
eliminate nuisance circuit breaker tripping
when welding.
DO NOT OPERATE THIS WELDER if the
ACTUAL power source voltage is less than
105 volts ac or greater than 132 volts ac.
Contact a qualified electrician if this problem
exists. Improper performance and/or damage
to the welder will result if operated on
inadequate or excessive power.
CONNECT TO POWER SOURCE
High voltage danger from power source!
Consult a qualified electrician for proper
installation of receptacle at the power source.
This welder must be grounded while in use to
protect the operator from electrical shock. If
you are not sure if your outlet is properly
grounded, have it checked by a qualified
electrician. Do not cut off the grounding prong
or alter the plug in any way and do not use
any adapters between the welder's power
cord and the power source receptacle. Make
sure the POWER switch is OFF then connect
your welder's power cord to a properly
grounded 120Vac, 60 Hz, single phase, 20
amp power source.
EXTENSION CORDS
For optimum welder performance, an
extension cord should not be used unless
absolutely necessary. If necessary, care
must be taken in selecting an extension cord
appropriate for use with your specific welder.
10
Select a properly grounded extension cord
that will mate directly with the power source
receptacle and the welder power cord without
the use of adapters. Make certain that the
extension is properly wired and in good
electrical condition.
Extension cords must be a #12 gauge cord at
the smallest. Do not use an extension cord
over 25 ft. in length.
ASSEMBLING THE WELDER
The following procedures describe the
process required to assemble, install,
maintain, and prepare to weld with your new
wire feed welder.
UNPACKING THE WELDER
1. Remove any cartons or bags containing
parts/accessories. (Most parts are
shipped INSIDE the welder door.)
2. Open the cartons or bags packed with your
welder and inspect their contents for damage.
3. Layout the parts and compare them to
the the packing list in Table 3 to familiar-
ize yourself with the parts and what they
are called. This will help you when
reading the manual.
