Cut off all bent and crimped wire. Make 8. sure that the cut end has no burrs or sharp edges; cut again if needed. 9. Keep tension on the wire and guide at least 12 inches of wire into the Wire Liners.

Swing the Wire Feed Swing Arm (36) closed, and swing the Feed Tensioner (37) across the tip of the Arm, to latch it. Make sure the Welding Wire is resting in the top groove of the Feed Roller (34), then turn the Feed Tensioner knob clockwise a couple of turns. After the wire is held by the Tensioner, you may release it. 11. Pull the Nozzle (3) to remove it. Using the third oval hole on the Multi-12. wrench (43), turn the Contact Tip (2b) counterclockwise and remove. Lay the Gun Cable out in a straight line 13. so that the wire moves through it easily. Leave the cover open, so that the feed mechanism can be observed. WARNING 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, 1. with the Gun or welding wire or an arc will be ignited. Do not touch internal welder components while it is 2. plugged in. 14. Do not touch the Gun’s Trigger (1c). Plug the Power Cord into its electrical outlet and turn the welder ON.

Point the Gun away from all objects and press the Trigger (1c) until the wire feeds out of the gun two inches. The Wire Liner (4) may come out with the welding wire, this is normal, just push the Wire Liner back into the Gun. If the wire does not feed properly and the Spool is stationary, turn the welder OFF, unplug it, and slightly tighten the Feed Tensioner (37) clockwise before retrying. 16. To check the wire’s drive tension, feed the wire against a piece of wood from 2 to 3 inches away. If the wire stops instead of bending, turn the welder OFF, unplug it, slightly tighten the Feed Tensioner (37) clockwise, and try again. If the wire bends from the feed tension, then the tension is set properly. 17. Turn the welder OFF. 18. Select a Contact Tip that is compatible with the welding wire used. The included Tip (2b, .035”) will work with both .030” and .035” wire. Slide the Contact Tip over the wire and thread it clockwise into the Gun. Tighten the Contact Tip using the Multi-wrench (43). Replace the Nozzle (3) and cut the wire 19. off at 1/2” from tip (1/2” stickout). Swing the Cover (31) closed until the 20. Cover Latch (8) locks in place.

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. This welder is a “hot tip” welder, meaning that current is available to the wire whenever the Power Switch is on. 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. =90 Amp Flux wire welder120 V~ 60 HzGunwire-Feed Speed012345678910mAxminOnOFF Practice your welding technique on scrap pieces before welding anything of value.
