8.Set the desired welding voltage and wire speed for the thickness of metal being welded, using the Voltage Selector Knob (5C) and Wire Feed Speed Knob (3C).

(See Figures K & J.)

9.While holding the Welding Gun (20A), with the Welding Wire clearly out of the way of any grounded objects, turn the Power Switch (1C) to its “ON” position.

(See Figure K.)

10.Momentarily squeeze the Trigger (13E) of the Welding Torch to test the wire feed speed. If necessary, adjust the speed by turning the Wire Speed Control Knob (3C). (See Figure K.)

11.Orient yourself on the area to be welded, then place a Face Shield over your eyes.
