6Welding Power Source Gas Hose Connection

Connect gas hose between regulator/flowmeter gas hose connection, and fitting on rear of welding power source.

7 Flow Adjust

Turn flow adjust screw to increase or decrease gas flow. Flow rate should be set when gas is flowing through welding power source and welding gun. Turn Range switch to Purge or Fan Only position. Press gun trigger to start gas flow. Typical flow rate is 20 cfh (cubic feet per hour). Check wire manufacturer’s recommended flow rate.
