TO INSTALL A GAS CYLINDER
WARNING: Maximum cylinder height is 3 feet 3 inches (1m). Maximum
cylinder weight is 88 lb., including gas. NEVER exceed either of these
maximums.
1. CAUTION! Do not use an Argon/Mixed pressure regulator/flow meter with CO
2
shielding gas. To use CO
2
shielding gas, you must install a CO
2
gas pressure
regulator/flow meter (neither one included).
2. Thread the provided straps through the slots on the back of the welder. With
assistance, set the cylinder onto the shelf at the back of the welder. Use the provided
chain to secure the cylinder in place.
3. Secure the cylinder in place with both of the straps.
4. Remove the protective cap from the cylinder. Stand to the side of the cylinder valve,
and open the valve slightly to blow dust and dirt from the valve. Then, close the
valve.
5. Make sure the Flow Adjust on the Pressure Regulator/Flow Meter is turned off. Then,
screw the Pressure Regulator/Flow Meter (not included) firmly onto the cylinder
valve.
6. Attach the Gas Line (2) to the Pressure Regulator/Flow Meter from the Gas Inlet
located on the Back Panel (5) of the Welder.
7. Adjust the flow rate of the gas by turning the Flow Adjust. The typical flow rate is 10-
30 CFH (cubic feet per hour). Make sure to check the Welding Wire
manufacturer’s recommended flow rate.
