14.To prevent fire or electric shock:

Trim all welding wire off the end of the Welding Gun (20A). Insulate the MIG Welding Gun (20A) wrapping it in electrical tape so that an arc is not acciden- tally ignited. Coil Welding Gun cable up away from all conductive objects.

15.While holding the Electrode Holder (21A), with the electrode clearly out of the way of any grounded objects, turn the Power Switch (1C) to its “ON” position.

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

Holding the Welding Torch/Electrode Holder

(for all welding types)

WARNING! Never look at the ignited arc without ANSI-approved, arc-shaded, eye protection in a full face shield with appropriate shaded lens. Permanent eye damage or blindness can occur. Skin burns can occur. Never breathe arc fumes. (See page 8.)

17.Hold the Welding Torch/Electrode Holder in one hand and a one-handed face shield in the other. If a hands-free welding shield is used, then both hands can be used to control the Torch/Holder.

18.Starting a weld arc (for stick (arc) welding only):

There are two usual methods to ignite an arc when stick welding: scratch or tap.

Scratch – stroke the Electrode across work piece like striking a match, then lift electrode slightly.

Tap – Bring electrode straight down against workpiece and then back up slight- ly.

If either of these methods are done properly, an arc is ignited.

If the arc goes out, the electrode was lifted too far from the workpiece.
