IMPORTANT INFORMATION: To operate all welders to their full capacity, you must run them on the correct power supply. To check the
amperage, use the following formula:
kVA Rating x 4.35 = Correct Amps Supply
3.1.
Assembly, : (Refer to fig.1)
3.1.1 Lay a protective covering such as some cardboard packaging onto the floor and, with the help of another person, carefully turn the
welder upside down onto it. Place the bent metal foot (6) onto the bottom of the casing just behind the front panel and fix it in place
using three self tapping screws (7).
3.1.2 Assemble the wheels and axle as follows. Attach a circlip (8) to one end of the axle (5). Slide a wheel (3) onto the far end of the axle
and move it across to the circlip ensuring that the recess in the wheel faces outwards. Insert the free end of the axle into the hole in
the side of the casing as shown in fig.1 and guide it through the casing to emerge from the hole on the far side of the casing. Slide the
other wheel (3) onto the axle and retain it with a circlip (8). Push a cap (4) into the recess in each wheel. With the help of another
person, carefully turn the welder the right way up.
3.1.3 Attach the handle extension to the handle as follows. Take the handle extension (1) and push the large recessed spigot on its
underside into the matching hole in the handle (2) as shown in fig.1. Secure the two parts together using the 25mm M5 bolt (9)
provided.
3.1.4 Place the handle assembly onto the top of the casing and align it with the fixing holes. Secure the back end of the handle using an M6
16mm bolt (11), a split washer (12) and a flat washer (13) as shown in fig.1. Secure the front end of the handle using an M6
25mm bolt (10), a split washer (12) and a flat washer (13) as shown in fig.1.

DANGER! Ensure no flammable or combustible materials are near work area. Welding containers or pipes which hold, or have held dangerous
gases or substances may explode or burn. Materials cleaned with chlorinated solvents, or varnished surfaces pose danger of toxic fumes.
Keep unauthorised persons at a safe distance from the work area. Persons within the work area are subject to the same dangers as the
welder and must take the same precautions.
DO NOT weld on pressurised containers.
Remove ties, watches, rings and other jewellery and contain long hair.
DO NOT use the welder for any purpose other than that for which it is designed.
DO NOT use the welder in damp or wet locations.
DO NOT stand welder on a metal workbench, car bodywork or similar object.
DO NOT touch any live metal parts of the torch or electrode while the machine is switched on.
DO NOT weld without a welding safety head shield, gauntlets, clothing.
DANGER! DO NOT weld near inflammable materials - solids, liquids, or gases.
DO NOT operate welder while under the influence of drugs, alcohol or other medication, or if you are tired.
DO NOT operate the welder if it or the cables are damaged.
DO NOT allow untrained persons to operate the welder.
DO NOT pull welder by the cable, or electrode holder. DO NOT bend or strain cables, protect from sharp or abrasive items. DO NOT stand
on cables or leads. Protect from heat. Long lengths of slack must be gathered and neatly coiled.
DO NOT place cables where they
endanger others.
DO NOT touch the electrode holder or workpiece immediately after welding as they will be very hot. Allow to cool.
DO NOT open the cover of the machine. Switch off machine and remove the plug from the power supply after use.
The electromagnetic fields generated by the welding process may interfere with the operation of electrical and electronic equipment.
Users of vital electrical or electronic devices (e.g.pace-makers, respirators etc.) should consult a doctor before entering areas where
welding machines are in use.(see Section 8).
Users of vital electrical or electronic devices should not use any welding machine.
