Electrical Safety Information ELECTRIC SHOCK can KILL. SAFETY 1. Never leave the Spot Welder unattended while energized. Turn off and disconnect power when leaving the work area. 2. Do not touch energized electrical parts. Wear dry, insulating gloves. Do not touch electrode or conductor tong with bare hand. Do not wear wet or damaged gloves. 3. Connect to grounded, GFCI‑protected 240V~ power supply only. 4. Do not use near water or damp objects. SETUP 5.
2. Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing welders. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the Welder accidentally. 3. Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to power source or moving the Welder. Carrying or energizing welders that have the switch on invites accidents. 4.
Grounding SAFETY TO PREVENT ELECTRIC SHOCK AND DEATH FROM INCORRECT GROUNDING WIRE CONNECTION: Check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. Have a plug installed by a certified electrician. Do not use the Welder if the power cord or plug is damaged. If damaged, have it repaired by a service facility before use. If the plug will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. Grounded Welders 1.

Setup Read the ENTIRE IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION section at the beginning of this manual including all text under subheadings therein before set up or use of this product. SAFETY Note: For additional information regarding the parts listed in the following pages, refer to Parts List and Diagrams on page 14.
Dressing Electrode Tips Note: When welding thinner materials a smaller tip diameter is required than when welding thicker materials. 1. Electrode Tips (24) deform during use. For optimal weld quality, inspect Electrode Tips before use and clean, dress (resurface), or replace as needed to maintain a proper contact surface. 2. Use a file or tip dresser tool (both not included) to dress Electrode Tips and restore the spot diameter and face angle to a condition approximately the same as a new tip.
Operation Read the ENTIRE IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION section at the beginning of this manual including all text under subheadings therein before set up or use of this product. SAFETY Adjusting Tong and Operating Lever Pressure WARNING! TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY AND ELECTRIC SHOCK: Prior to adjusting the Tong and Operating Lever pressure, make sure the Spot Welder is disconnected from its electrical supply source. 3.
General Operating Instructions 4. Push and hold the Power Switch sideways in either direction to apply electric current. Release the Power Switch to shut off current and stop the welding process. SAFETY WARNING! TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY AND ELECTRIC SHOCK: Never touch the Upper and Lower Tongs when welding a workpiece. Allow the Electrode Tips and the workpiece to cool before handling. 1. Ensure that materials to be welded are free from scale, oxides, paint, grease, and oil.
Maintenance Procedures not specifically explained in this manual must be performed only by a qualified technician. SAFETY TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY, FIRE AND BURNS: Unplug the Welder and allow all parts of the Welder to cool thoroughly before service. TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY FROM WELDER FAILURE: Do not use damaged equipment. If abnormal noise or vibration occurs, have the problem corrected before further use. 1. BEFORE EACH USE, inspect the general condition of the Welder.
Troubleshooting 1. Plug Power Cord into electrical outlet. 1. Electrode Tips deformed, dirty, oxidized, or pitted. 1. Dress or replace Electrode Tips. Refer to Dressing Electrode Tips on page 9 or Replacing Electrode Tips on page 12. 2. Clean or replace Tongs. 3. Adjust Tong pressure. Refer to Adjusting Tong and Operating Lever Pressure on page 10. 4. Remove paint, oxides, chemical compounds including galvanized coating. 5. Ensure that workpiece thickness is within capacity of Spot Welder.
