physician(s) before use. Electromagnetic fields

in close proximity to heart pacemaker could cause

pacemaker interference or pacemaker failure.

6. Do not expose welders to rain or wet conditions.

Water entering a welder will increase

the risk of electric shock.

7. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord

for carrying, pulling or unplugging the Welder.

Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges

or moving parts. Damaged or entangled

cords increase the risk of electric shock.

8. Do not use outdoors.

9. Insulate yourself from the workpiece and

ground. Use nonflammable, dry insulating

material if possible, or use dry rubber mats,

dry wood or plywood, or other dry insulating

material large enough to cover your full

area of contact with the work or ground.

10. Use care not to touch the welding tip to conduc

material whenever the unit is plugged

in. Electric shock, fire, or burns may happen

if appropriate precautions are not taken.

Fire Safety Information

SPARKS AND HOT SLAG can cause fire.

1. Clear away or protect flammable objects.

Remove or make safe all combustible materials for a

radius of 35 feet (10 meters) around the work area.

Use a fire resistant material to cover

or block all open doorways, windows,

cracks, and other openings.

2. Keep ABC-type fire extinguisher near

work area and know how to use it.

3. Maintain a safe working environment.

Keep the work area well lit.

Make sure there is adequate

surrounding workspace. Keep the work area free

of obstructions, grease, oil, trash, and other debris.

4. Do not operate welders in atmospheres

containing dangerously reactive or

flammable liquids, gases, vapors, or dust.

Provide adequate ventilation in work areas

to prevent accumulation of such substances.

Welders create sparks which may ignite flammable

substances or make reactive fumes toxic.

5. If working on a metal wall, ceiling, etc.,

prevent ignition of combustibles on the

other side by moving the combustibles to a

safe location. If relocation of combustibles is

not possible, designate someone to serve as

a fire watch, equipped with a fire extinguisher,

during the cutting process and for at least one

half hour after the cutting is completed.

6. Do not weld or cut on materials having

a combustible coating or combustible

internal structure, as in walls or ceilings, without

an approved method for eliminating the hazard.

7. Do not dispose of hot slag in containers

holding combustible materials.

8. After welding, make a thorough examination

for evidence of fire. Be aware that easily

visible smoke or flame may not be present

for some time after the fire has started.

9. Do not apply heat to a container that has held

an unknown substance or a combustible

material whose contents, when heated,

can produce flammable or explosive vapors.

Clean and purge containers before applying heat.

Vent closed containers, including castings,

before preheating, welding, or cutting.

Operation Specific Safety Information

1. Do not use the Welder if the switch does not turn

it on and off. Any welder that cannot be controlled

with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.

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. Store idle Welder out of the reach of

children and do not allow persons unfamiliar

with the Welder or these instructions to

operate the Welder. Welders are dangerous

in the hands of untrained users.

5. Use the Welder and accessories in

accordance with these instructions, taking

into account the working conditions and

the work to be performed. Use of the Welder

for operations different from those intended

could result in a hazardous situation.

Service Specific Safety Information

1. Maintain welders. Check for misalignment or

binding of moving parts, breakage of parts

and any other condition that may affect the

Welder’s operation. If damaged, have the

Welder repaired before use. Many accidents

are caused by poorly maintained welders.

2. Have your Welder serviced by a qualified

repair person using only identical

replacement parts. This will ensure that

the safety of the Welder is maintained.

3. Maintain labels and nameplates on the Welder.

These carry important information.

If unreadable or missing, contact

Harbor Freight Tools for a replacement.

4. Unplug before maintenance. Unplug the Welder

from its electrical outlet before any inspection,

maintenance, or cleaning procedures.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

Grounding

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.

Double Insulated Tools: Tools with Two Prong Plugs

Figure A: Outlets for 2-Prong Plug

1. Tools marked “Double Insulated” do not

require grounding. They have a special

double insulation system which satisfies

OSHA requirements and complies with

the applicable standards of Underwriters

Laboratories, Inc., the Canadian Standard

Association, and the National Electrical Code.

2. Double insulated tools may be used in either of the

120 volt outlets shown in the preceding illustration.

(See Outlets for 2-Prong Plug.)

Extension Cords

1. If an extension cord is used, it must have

the following wire size: up to 30 feet, use

10 AWG size wire; 30 to 50 feet, use 8 AWG

wire; Over 50 feet, use 6 AWG wire.

2. As the distance from the supply outlet increases,

a heavier gauge extension cord must be used.

Using extension cords with inadequately sized

wire causes a serious drop in voltage, resulting

in loss of power and possible Welder damage.

3. The smaller the gauge number of the wire,

the greater the capacity of the cord. For

example, a 14 gauge cord can carry a

higher current than a 16 gauge cord.

4. When using more than one extension cord to

make up the total length, make sure each cord

contains at least the minimum wire size required.

5. If using one extension cord for more than one

welder, add the nameplate amperes and use the

sum to determine the required minimum cord size.

6. If using an extension cord outdoors, make sure it

is marked with the suffix “W-A” (“W” in Canada)

to indicate it is acceptable for outdoor use.

7. Make sure the extension cord is properly wired

and in good electrical condition. Always replace

a damaged extension cord or have it repaired

by a qualified electrician before using it.

8. Protect the extension cords from sharp objects,

excessive heat, and damp or wet areas.

manual including all text under subheadings therein before set up or use of this product.

Welding the Stud

Note: It is recommended that the following

procedures be practiced on a piece of

scrap metal prior to actual use.

1. Clean the surface where the stud is to be welded,

in an area as large as the Ground Sleeve, down

to the metal. Ensure that the surface is free

from scale, oxides, paint, grease, and oil. The

entire Ground Sleeve needs to evenly contact the

surface without interference to weld properly.

2. With the Welder unplugged, insert

a stud of the correct size into the

hole in the Stud Electrode Tip.

Note: Ensure that the size of stud being

used matches the size of the Stud Electrode

Tip installed on the Stud Welder.

5. With the Ground Sleeve PERFECTLY FLUSH

against the surface, hold the Stud Welder steady

and press in on the Trigger momentarily for 0.5 to

1 second, then immediately release the Trigger.

Note: It is normal for approximately 1/4" of

discoloration to show around the weld. If the

Trigger is held down for more than 1 second,

the metal skin of the vehicle will burn.

Note: If the Stud Welder remains on too long

(approximately 6 seconds) the circuit breaker

will shut the unit down to protect it. To reset the

circuit breaker, allow the unit to cool down and

then push the Circuit Breaker Reset Button.

6. Pull the Stud Welder directly back,

leaving the welded stud in place with

the tip of the stud exposed.
