The following steps require applying power to the
welder with the cover open. To prevent serious
injury from fire or electric shock:
Do not touch anything, especially not the
ground clamp, with the gun or welding wire or
an arc will be ignited.
Do not touch internal Welder components
while it is plugged in.
IMPORTANT!
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.
WARNING!
MIG/FLUX-CORED WIRE WELDING
12. Pull and twist the Nozzle of MIG torch to remove it
13. Unscrew the Contact Tip counterclockwise and
remove.
14. Lay the MIG Gun Cable out in a straight line so that
the welding wire moves through it easily. Leave the
cover open, so that the feed mechanism can be
observed.
15. Do not touch the Gun’s Trigger. Turn the Power
Switch OFF before connecting the Power Cord.
16. Plug the Power Cord into a properly grounded,
GFCI protected 120 VAC (20 amp rated) receptacle
that matches the plug and turn the Power Switch
ON. The circuit must be equipped with delayed
action-type circuit breaker or fuses.
Flux-cored wire welding is used to weld mild steel
and stainless steel without shielding gas.
MIG welding uses solid wire and shielding gas, and is
used to weld mild steel and stainless steel.
MIG welding can also be used to weld thinner
workpiece than flux-cored welding can.
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
A different type of material
A different type of connection
Using a different process
Make practice welds on pieces of scrap to
practice technique before welding anything
of value.
Too much force on flux-cored wire will crush it
and may cause feeding issues.
