1. Clean the weld surfaces thoroughly with
a wire brush or angle grinder; there must
be no rust, paint, oil, or other materials on
the weld surfaces, only bare metal.
2. Use clamps (not included) to hold the workpieces
in position so that you can concentrate on
proper welding technique. The distance
(if any) between the two workpieces must be
controlled properly to allow the weld to hold
both sides securely while allowing the weld
to penetrate fully into the joint. The edges of
thicker workpieces may need to be chamfered
(or beveled) to allow proper weld penetration.
NOTICE: When welding equipment on a vehicle,
disconnect the vehicle battery power from both the
positive connection and the ground before welding.
This prevents damage to some vehicle electrical
systems and electronics due to the high voltage
and high frequency bursts common in welding.

Attach Ground Clamp to bare metal on the
workpiece near the weld area, or to metal work
bench where the workpiece is clamped.

5&(*%$.,8%$.*%/(*#4("+*9%9'$S%4S47*%$"5*1 The Duty
Cycle defines the number of minutes, within a 10 minute
period, during which a given welding process can
produce a particular welding current without overheating.
For example, a welder with a 20% duty cycle at 225 A
welding current must be allowed to rest for at least
8 minutes after every 2 minutes of continuous welding.
Failure to carefully observe duty cycle limitations
can easily over-stress a welder’s power generation
system contributing to premature welder failure.
This Welder has an internal thermal protection system to
help prevent this sort of over-stress. When the Welder
overheats, it automatically shuts down and the Overload
Indicator lights. The Welder automatically returns to
service after cooling off. Rest the Electrode Holder on
an electrically non-conductive, heat-proof surface, such
as a concrete slab, well clear of the ground clamp.

When the Overload Indicator is no longer lit and the
Welder can be used again, use shorter welding periods
and longer rest periods to prevent needless wear.
