Read the ENTIRE IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION section at the beginning of
this manual including all text under subheadings therein before welding.
TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY:
Protective gear must be worn when using the
Welder; minimum shade number 10 full face shield
(or welding mask), ear protection, welding gloves,
sleeves and apron, NIOSH-approved respirator, and
fire resistant work clothes without pockets should
be worn when welding.
Light from the arc can cause permanent damage to
the eyes and skin.
Do not breathe arc fumes.
TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY,
FIRE AND BURNS:
Keep welding tip clear of grounded
objects whenever unit is plugged in.
The Flux Wire Welder is used to weld sheet metal
and low carbon steel. Good welding takes a degree
of skill and experience. Practice a few sample
welds on scrap before welding your first project.
Additional practice periods are recommended whenever
you weld a different thickness of material or weld a
different type of connection.
Make practice welds on pieces of scrap to practice
technique before welding anything of value.
