GLW-180H — WELDER OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

CAUTION:

CAUTION:

To prevent serious accidents, ALWAYS turn
off the generator/welder ( operation switch)
and set the main circuit breaker to the OFF
position.

NEVER switch the current range selector
switch
during any welding operation.

CAUTION:

1.

Connect the welding cables (electrodes) to the
generator's output terminals (Figure 4). For

minimum

welding current (min-130 amps), use an eyelet terminal
connector with a 5/64" to 1/8" diameter, for

maximum

welding current (110 - max amps), use an eyelet terminal
connector with a 3/32" to 5/32" diameter

2.

Set the current

regulator control switch on the control

panel (Figure X) to the desired setting. The

inner scale

is for

low current, the outer scale is high current output.

Figure 6. Current Regulator/Range Switches

3.

Set the current

range control switch (Figure 7) to either

low or high. DO NOT change the position of this switch
while welding.

Welding Cables

The required cable welding size is governed by this simple
rule: The longer the welding cable, or the greater the welding
current, the thicker (copper strands) the calbe must be.

Select a welding cable with adequate thickness according
to the cable length and welding amperage (current) as listed
in Table 5.

Duty Cycle

The duty cycle for the generator/welder is based on 10 minute
intervals. See Table 6 below.
