After practice welding on scrap, stop,
and check your progress. Perform
Strike Test, then clean and compare your
weld’s appearance with the diagrams and
descriptions in the L*79"83%E"/# section
starting on the next page. After making any
necessary adjustments, continue to weld
while carefully following the DUTY CYCLE
guidelines as explained on page 10.
4. Place the bare metal end of the Stick
Electrode (sold separately) inside the
jaws of the Electrode Holder.
5. Turn the Power Switch to the OFF position, then
plug the Welder into a properly grounded 240 V
receptacle that matches the plug. Use the included
120V power adaptor if plugging the Welder into
a 120V receptacle. The circuit must be equipped
with delayed action-type circuit breaker or fuses.
I&$*- Ensure that the Voltage Switch is
positioned to the correct input voltage.
6. Set Electrode Holder down on
nonconductive, nonflammable surface
away from any grounded objects.
7. Turn the Power Switch ON.

9. Stroke the workpiece lightly to ignite the arc.
Tips for igniting the arc:
a. Tap the surface with the Electrode.
b. Stroke the surface with the Electrode.
c. Strike the surface like a match with the Electrode.
10. After the arc ignites:
a. Lift the Electrode off workpiece the same
distance as the diameter of the bare metal end.
b. Tilt Electrode back 10 to 20 degrees.
c. Drag Electrode to the back end of the weld
puddle to deposit material as needed.
11. When finished welding, lift the Electrode from
the workpiece, then set Electrode Holder
down on nonconductive, nonflammable
surface away from any grounded objects.
12. Turn the Power Switch OFF.
13. To prevent accidents, after use:
• Allow Welder to cool down.
• Unplug Welder’s power cord from outlet.
• Remove Ground Clamp.
• Clean, then store Welder and its accessories
indoors out of children’s reach.
