ATTENTION: The protection class of the MIG 175 Portable Wire Feed Welder is IP21S. Do not insert any object that is less than 12.5 mm (especially a metal bar) into the welder. The case is not designed to be stood on or to have heavy objects placed on top of it.

WARNING! Do not switch voltage while welding. Only the operator should adjust the welding parameters.

WARNING! The welder must be grounded before using. Do not remove the ground earth clamp while welding or you may get an electric shock. When multiple welders are using a common grounding device, they must have a parallel connection and must not connect in series. The welder’s ground cable sectional area should not be smaller than the input power cable.

Weld only in areas free from dust, chemicals, flammable or explosive gases and other similar substances.

This welder is designed for use and storage indoors or in a covered area at 10°F–105°F. If used outside, unit should not be exposed to rain or high humidity.

Only weld in a well-ventilated area where smoke and fumes can be avoided. Use a smoke ventilation device if necessary.
