SAFETY SUMMARY
The warnings, cautions and instructions discussed inthis instructionmanual can not cover
all possible conditions or situations that could
occur. It must be understood by the operator
that common sense and caution are factors
which can not be built into this product, but
must be supplied by the operator. Reading this
operator’s manual before using the welder
will enable you to do a better, safer job. Learn
the welder’s applications and limitations as
well as the specic potential hazards peculiar
to welding.
t When you see one of the symbols shown
here, be alert to the possibility of personal injury and carefully read the message
that follows.
This symbol indicates that the possibility of electric shock hazard
exists during the operation of the
step(s) that follow.
This symbol indicates that the possibility of re hazard exists during
the operation of the step(s) that
follow.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

ELECTRIC SHOCK CAN KILL! To reduce the
risk of death or serious injury from shock,
read, understand, and follow the following
safety instructions. In addition, make certain
that anyone else who uses this welding
equipment, or who is a bystander in the
welding area understands and follows these
safety instructions as well.
t IMPORTANT! TO REDUCE THE RISK OF
DEATH, INJURY, OR PROPERTY DAMAGE, DO NOT ATTEMPT OPERATION of
this welding equipment until you have
read and understand the following safety summary.
t Do not, in any manner, come into physi-
cal contact with any part of the welding
current circuit. The welding current circuit includes:
a) The work piece or any conductive

DESCRIPTION
Your new MIG (GMAW) core (FCAW)
wire feed welder is designed for maintenance and sheet metal fabrication. The
welder consists of a single-phase power
transformer, stabilizer,
unique built-in control/feeder.
Now you can weld sheet metal from 24
gauge up to 3/16 inch thick with a single
pass. You can weld thicker steel with beveling and multiple pass techniques. Table 1
lists your MIG welder

Duty Cycle Rating 40%
This MIG welder, equipped with gas, is capable
of welding with .023” (0.6mm) and .030” (0.8mm)
solid steel wire using DC reverse polarity, and with
.030” (0.8mm)and .035” (0.9mm) self shielded
diameter solid steel wire .035” (0.9mm) using DC
reverse polarity may also be used. Welding with
larger than .035” (0.9mm) is not recommended.

WELDER OPERATING
CHARACTERISTICS
DUTY CYCLE
The duty cycle rating of a welder
how long the operator can weld and how
long the welder must be rested and cooled.
Duty cycle is expressed as a percentage of
10 minutes and represents the maximum
welding time allowed. The balance of the
10-minute cycle is required for cooling. Your
new welder has a duty cycle rating of 40% at
the rated output. This means that you can
weld for four (4) minutes out of 10 with the
remaining six (6) minutes required for cooling. (See Table 2).
Duty Maximum Required
Cycle Welding Resting
Rating Time Time
20% 2 minutes 8 minutes
40% 4 minutes 6 minutes
60% 6 minutes 4 minutes
80% 8 minutes 2 minutes
100% 10 minutes 0 minutes
INTERNAL THERMAL PROTECTION
CAUTION
Do not constantly exceed the duty cycle or
damage to the welder can result. If you
exceed the duty cycle of the welder, an internal thermal protector will open, shutting
all welder functions except the cooling fan. If
this happens, DO NOT SHUT OFF THE
WELDER. Leave the welder turned on with
the fan running. After cooling, the thermal
protector will automatically reset and the
welder will function normally again.
However you should wait at least ten minutes after the thermal protector opens
before resuming welding. You must do this
even if the thermal protector resets itself
before the ten minutes is up or you may
experience less than
performance.
If you

wire speed slightly and tune in the welder at
the lowest wire speed setting that still produces a smooth arc. Welding with the wire
speed set too high causes excessive current
draw and shortens the duty cycle.

Wire Speed Control– Use this dial to
adjust the speed at which the welder feeds
wire to the gun. 1 is the slowest wire feed
speed, 10 is the highest. You will need to
adjust or “tune-in” your wire speed for different welding conditions (thickness of metals, gas -vs- gasless welding, metal type,
wire size, etc.). When the wire speed is properly “tuned-in” the welding wire will melt

120 volt power cord. (Make sure you are
using a properly grounded 120V AC, 60 Hz,
single phase, 20 Amp power source.)
Ground Clamp – Attaching the ground
clamp to your work piece “completes” the
welding current circuit. You must attach the
ground clamp to the metal you are welding.
If the ground clamp is not connected to the
metal work piece you intend to weld, the
welder will not have a completed circuit and
you will be unable to weld. A poor connection at the ground clamp will waste power
and heat. Scrape away dirt, rust, scale, oil or
paint before attaching the ground clamp.
GroundCable – The ground cable connects
the ground clamp to the internal workings of
the welder.
Welding Gunand Cable– The welding
gun controls the delivery of
to the material to be welded. The welding
wire is fed through the welding cable and
welding gun when the welding gun trigger is
pulled. You will need to install a contact tip
and welding nozzle to the end of the welding gun, as described later in
prior to welding.
Welding Terms
Now that you are familiar with the main
parts of the welder, make note of the following terms. You will see them used throughout this manual.
Weldpuddle: The localized volume
of molten metal in a weld prior to its
Weldangle: The angle of the welding wire,
as it extends from the welding gun, in relation to the item being welded.
Slag: The protective coating that forms on
the surface of molten metal.
Arc: A sustained luminous discharge of elec-
tricity across a gap in a circuit.
Weldingbead: The extended build up of a
weld, made by pushing or pulling the weld
puddle.

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 familiarize yourself with the parts and what they are called.
This will help you when reading the manual.
