8. When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor extension cord marked “W-A” or “W”.  
These extension cords are rated for outdoor use, and reduce the risk of electric shock.  
Personal Safety  
9. Stay alert. Watch what you are doing, and use common sense when operating a power tool.  
Do not use a power tool while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A  
moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.  
10. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep your hair, clothing,  
and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving  
parts.  
11. Avoid accidental starting. Be sure the Power Switch is off before plugging in. Carrying power  
tools with your finger on the Power Switch, or plugging in power tools with the Power Switch on,  
invites accidents.  
12. Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key that  
is left attached to an operational part of the power tool may result in personal injury.  
13. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing and balance  
enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.  
WARNING:This product, when used for welding, plasma cutting, soldering, or similar  
applications, produces chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth  
defects (or other reproductive harm). (California Health & Safety Code § 25249.5, et seq.)  
Tool Use and Care  
14. Use clamps (not included) or other practical ways to secure and support the work piece to a stable  
platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body is unstable and may lead to loss of control.  
15. Do not force the tool. Use the correct tool for your application. The correct tool will do the job  
better and safer at the rate for which it is designed.  
16. Do not use the power tool if the Power Switch does not turn it on or off. Any tool that cannot be  
controlled with the Power Switch is dangerous and must be replaced.  
17. Disconnect the Power Cord Plug from the power source before making any adjustments,  
changing accessories, or storing the tool. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of  
starting the tool accidentally.  
18. Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Tools are dangerous in  
the hands of untrained users.  
19. Maintain tools with care. Keep the welder clean. Properly maintained tools function better and  
are easier to control. Do not use a damaged tool. Tag damaged tools “Do not use” until repaired.  
20. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any other condi-  
tion that may affect the tool’s operation. If damaged, have the tool serviced before using.  
Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained tools.

debris. Do not use a power tool in areas near flammable chemicals, dusts, and vapors. Do not use  
this product in a damp or wet location.  
7. Prevent eye injury and burns. Wearing and using ANSI-approved personal safety clothing and  
safety devices reduce the risk for injury.  
• Wear ANSI approved safety impact eye goggles with a welding helmet with protective lens.  
• Leather leggings, fire resistant shoes or boots should be worn when using this product. Do  
not wear pants with cuffs, shirts with open pockets, or any clothing that can catch and hold molten  
metal or sparks.  
• Keep clothing free of grease, oil, solvents, or any flammable substances. Wear dry, insulating  
gloves and protective clothing.  
• Wear an approved head covering to protect the head and neck. Use aprons, cape, sleeves,  
shoulder covers, and bibs designed and approved for welding and cutting procedures.  
• When welding/cutting overhead or in confined spaces, wear flame resistant ear plugs or ear muffs  
to keep sparks out of ears.  
8. Prevent accidental fires. Remove any combustible material from the work area.  
When possible, move the work to a location well away from combustible materials. If  
relocation is not possible, protect the combustibles with a cover made of fire resistant  
material.  
• 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.  
• Enclose the work area with portable fire resistant screens. Protect combustible walls, ceilings,  
floors, etc., from sparks and heat with fire resistant covers.  
• 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.  
• 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.  
• Do not dispose of hot slag in containers holding combustible materials. Keep a fire extinguisher  
nearby and know how to use it.  
• After spot 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. Do not weld or cut in  
atmospheres containing dangerously reactive or flammable gases, vapors, liquids, and dust. Provide  
adequate ventilation in work areas to prevent accumulation of flammable gases, vapors, and dust.  
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 con-  
tainers before applying heat. Vent closed containers, including castings, before preheating, welding,  
or cutting.  
9. Avoid overexposure to fumes and gases. Always keep your head out of the fumes. Do not breathe  
the fumes. Use enough ventilation or exhaust, or both, to keep fumes and gases from your breathing  
zone and general area.

• Where ventilation is questionable, have a qualified technician take an air sampling to determine  
the need for corrective measures. Use mechanical ventilation to improve air quality. If engineering  
controls are not feasible, use an approved respirator.  
• Work in a confined area only if it is well ventilated, or while wearing an air supplied respirator.  
• Follow OSHA guidelines for Permissible Exposure Limits (PELs) for various fumes and gases.  
• Follow the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists recommendations for  
Threshold Limit Values (TLV’s) for fumes and gases.  
• Have a recognized specialist in Industrial Hygiene or Environmental Services check the operation  
and air quality and make recommendations for the specific welding or cutting situation.  
10. Read and understand all instructions and safety precautions as outlined in the manufacturer’s  
manual for the material you will weld or cut.  
11. Do not touch live electrical parts. Wear dry, insulating gloves. Do not touch electrode or conductor  
tong with bare hand. Do not wear wet or damaged gloves.  
12. Protect yourself from electric shock. Do not use outdoors. 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 big enough to cover your full area of contact with the  
work or ground.  
13. Use caution when pulling out a dent. A weld or panel may unexpectedly give way, possibly  
causing personal injury if caution is not exercised. Always pull in such a way that you will not lose  
balance, strike yourself, or otherwise injure yourself if the weld breaks. When using a Slide Hammer,  
make sure your body will not be in the way of the impacting weight.  
14. WARNING! The warnings and cautions discussed in this manual cannot cover all possible conditions

GROUNDING  
NOTE: This tool requires the installation of a 3-prong 230 VAC, polarized twistlock power cord plug  
(not included). The plug must be installed by a qualified electrician. See Figure A below.  
WARNING! Improperly connecting the grounding wire can result in the risk of electric shock.  
Check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded.  
Do not modify the power cord plug provided with the tool. Never remove the grounding prong from  
the plug. Do not use the tool 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.  
GROUNDED TOOLS:TOOLS WITH THREE PRONG PLUGS  
1. Tools marked with “Grounding Required” have a three wire cord and three prong grounding plug. The  
plug must be connected to a properly grounded outlet. If the tool should electrically malfunction or  
break down, grounding provides a low resistance path to carry electricity away from the user, reduc-  
ing the risk of electric shock. (See Figure A.)  
2. The grounding prong in the plug is connected through the green wire inside the cord to the ground-  
ing system in the tool. The green wire in the cord must be the only wire connected to the tool’s  
grounding system and must never be attached to an electrically “live” terminal. (See Figure A.)  
3. Your tool must be plugged into an appropriate outlet, properly installed by a certified electrician  
and grounded in accordance with all codes and ordinances. The plug and outlet should look like  
those in the following illustration. (See Figure A.)

EXTENSION CORDS  
1. Grounded, 230 VAC tools require a three wire extension cord.  
2. As the distance from the supply outlet increases, you must use a heavier gauge extension cord. Us-  
ing extension cords with inadequately sized wire causes a serious drop in voltage, resulting in loss of  
power and possible tool damage. (See Figure B, below.)  
3. The smaller the gauge number of the wire, the greater the capacity of the cord. For example, a 10  
gauge cord can carry a higher current than a 12 gauge cord. (See Figure B.)  
4. When using more than one extension cord to make up the total length, make sure each cord con-  
tains at least the minimum wire size required. (See Figure B.)  
5. If you are 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.  
6. Make sure your 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.  
7. Protect your extension cords from sharp objects, excessive heat, and damp or wet areas.

Installing the Welding Tip  
Various tips are supplied for different welding operations. Select and install the appropriate tip before  
beginning work. WARNING:The welder must be OFF and UNPLUGGED when installing tips.  
1. Insert the butt end of the tip into the Welding Gun. Be sure the welding tip is firmly seated in the gun.  
2. Rotate the collar of the gun clockwise to tighten the tip.  
Welding Tip Selection:  
1. Electrode with magnet for washer: Washer can be held in magnetic tip, to be spot welded to dented  
area. Washer will later be pulled to pull out dent.  
2. Washer electrode reversed for shrinking: Magnetic washer electrode may be reversed in the gun and  
used for shrinking. A convex dented area can be heated, then cooled with a wet rag to shrink the  
metal and reduce the swelling.  
3. Carbon Electrode: May be used for cutting, filling cracks or heating for tempering or shrinking.  
4. Spot Weld Needle tips: Used for spot welding.  
Duty Cycle  
This welder is rated for 15% duty cycle during welding at maximum power and 40% during warming  
at minimum power. Do not exceed duty cycle limits, as that may overheat the machine causing  
damage or premature wear. If the welder overheats, the Thermostat Light will come on, the welder  
will automatically shut off, and must remain off at least 30 minutes until cool.  
NOTE: Duty Cycle is the percentage of 10 minutes the welder can be in operation  
without overheating. 15% duty cycle means that the welder can be energized  
approximately 1-½ minutes out of each 10 minute period. 40% duty cycle means the welder  
can be energized approx. 4 minutes out of each 10 minute period.

NOTE:Welding is a complex operation requiring training, skill and  
practice. We strongly recommend professional training before attempting  
any welding operation. This manual is intended only as basic information  
and cannot cover all aspects of the welding process.  
Preparing to use the welder  
1. Always clean both sides of the work material at and near the work place to remove paint, rust, dirt,  
grease and other contaminating material. Contaminants will interfere with the welding process, and  
may cause noxious gasses to be produced as they are heated during the welding operation.  
2. Always connect the Ground Clamp to another cleaned location as close as possible to the work area  
(no more than 12” away).  
NOTE: Always wear and use ANSI-approved personal safety clothing and safety devices to reduce  
the risk for injury.  
Spot Welding Washers using the Magnetic Washer Tip  
1. Thoroughly clean the area to be worked on using an angle grinder, powered wire brush or similar  
tool.  
2. Attach the Ground Clamp near the area to be repaired.  
3. Turn the Function Selector to the TIMED setting. Set the Timer Control to between 0.1 and 1.2 sec-  
onds. NOTE: The time must be adjusted for the thickness and relative density of the work material. In  
general, larger thicker washers will require longer welding time.  
4. Insert a flat washer into the Magnetic Washer Tip.  
5. Using the gun, press the washer against the dented area. Squeeze the trigger. The washer will be  
welded to the work material. Release the Trigger.  
6. You may use washers of different sizes and thicknesses for different dents. Larger washers will have  
more pulling power. Be sure to use washers that are NOT galvanized or electroplated, and are free  
of rust, grease, dirt or other contaminants.  
7. If necessary, you can spot weld the washer, then heat the surrounding area before pulling the  
washer. Heating the surrounding area will anneal, soften the metal making dent removal easier.  
WARNING: Galvanized and electroplated metals generally have a zinc based plating to resist rust.  
When heated, zinc gives off a harmful, potentially poisonous gas. Do not weld with electroplated or  
galvanized materials.

Using the Extractor Hook  
1. Thread the Extractor Hook (Pot Hook) onto the slide puller assembly. Fit the extractor hook onto the  
washer.  
2. Hold the Hand grip with one hand, and pull the Striker back sharply against the handle. This action  
will pull out the dent. Repeat as necessary.You may need to weld on additional washers at various  
spots to pull out the dent completely.  
3. To remove the washers, grip the washer with a pliers (not included), and bend back and forth until  
the washer breaks off.  
4. Using a grinder (not included), remove the weld spot from each repair location before finishing the dent  
repair.  
About Spot Welding  
Spot welding is used to join two items of metal together. A high energy electrical force is applied at  
a small location for a short time. This electrical force causes the two items of metal to melt and fuse  
together at that spot.  
If the electrical force is not large enough, if the duration is too short, or the metal is too thick or is  
dirty, the weld may not properly fuse.  
If the electrical force is too high, if the duration is too long, or the metal is too thin, the metal may  
burn through; “blowing out” and causing a hole in the work material.  
In auto body repair work, washers or pins may be welded to a spot on the vehicle body to allow a  
dent to be pulled out. The washer or pin is then removed, and the spot ground smooth for finishing. In  
cases where there is a hole or severely damaged body panel, a new sheet may be spot welded over  
the damaged area to provide a new surface for finishing.  
Proper welding is a skill that takes some time and practice to acquire. Experienced welders will usu-  
ally make one or more practice welds on scrap material, to adjust these variables, before making  
welds on the work material.

Using the Shrinking Electrode  
1. Insert the Magnetic / Shrinking Electrode in the Gun with the rounded Shrinking end protruding.  
2. Set the Ground Clamp as close as possible to the damaged area.  
3. Set the Function Selector to CONTINUOUS.  
4. Place the Electrode on the damaged area and squeeze the trigger. The electrode will heat up, as  
will the work material. Use the electrode to press the heated material down into shape, reducing or  
“shrinking” convex dents.  
CAUTION: Be aware of your working time and do not exceed the welder’s Duty Cycle.  
Using the Carbon Electrodes  
The Carbon Electrodes can be used for warming or tempering, spot welding sheets together, crack  
filling or cutting sheet metal.  
CAUTION: Be aware of your working time and do not exceed the welder’s Duty Cycle.  
For Warming:  
1. Insert the carbon electrode into the gun and tighten into place.  
2. Connect the Ground near the work area.  
3. Set the Function Selector to the “CONTINUOUS” setting.  
4. Contact the metal with the electrode, holding the trigger down, and moving the electrode continu-  
ously over the surface.  
5. When the surface has been heated, release the trigger and remove the electrode from the metal.  
6. Warming the metal will anneal it, causing it to become softer. Sudden cooling of annealed metal,  
such as by applying water will temper the metal, causing it to become harder.  
7. Depending on your reason for heating the area, you may hammer the annealed area to shape it, or ap-  
ply a wet rag to the surface to temper the metal. Repeat the heating and working process as needed.  
Spot Welding:  
1. Using the Carbon Electrode, set the Function switch to “CONTINUOUS”.  
2. Clamp the new sheet of metal to the car body.  
3. Attach the ground nearby the work location.  
4. Contact the electrode to the car body NOT the patch material, and squeeze the trigger. Hold the  
trigger in the ON position while the metal heats up. When you observe the metal beginning to fuse,  
either remove the electrode from the metal, making a spot weld, or move the electrode to make a  
line weld.  
Crack Filling:  
1. Using the Carbon Electrode, set the Function switch to “CONTINUOUS”.  
2. Insert a clean piece of steel wire into the crack which has been cleaned and prepared for welding.  
3. Attach the ground nearby the work location.  
4. Contact the electrode to the metal and squeeze the trigger. Hold the trigger in the ON position while  
the metal heats up. When you observe the wire beginning to fuse, move the electrode along the  
REV 06l  
crack to fuse the wire with the metal, filling the crack.

Cutting with the Carbon Electrodes:  
1. Using the Carbon Electrode, set the Function switch to “CONTINUOUS”.  
2. Attach the ground nearby the work location.  
3. Contact electrode to metal and squeeze the trigger. Hold trigger in ON position while the metal heats  
up. Eventually the metal will begin to melt. Move the Carbon Electrode along a path to cut the metal.  
WARNING: Plan ahead for the molten metal to fall onto a non-flammable surface, such as  
a concrete floor. Protect yourself, others and property from potential fire and burn injury  
caused by falling and splattering molten metal.  
Maintenance and Troubleshooting  
1. Anyone using this welder must have adequate training in the use of electric welders and related  
operations. This tool can be easily damaged by unskilled use.  
2. Keep untrained or unauthorized persons away from the welder at all times.  
3. After power is turned on, do not allow electrode tip to come closer than 6” from Grounding Clamp.  
When not welding, turn power off and do not lay the gun and Grounding Clamp on the same metal  
surface, as they may short out.  
4. Always handle the Gun gently to avoid damage to its casing, handle or trigger. Always keep the  
electrodes, gun, cables and welder case clean and dry.  
6. Store the welder in a clean dry place. Do not allow it to become wet or contaminated with grease,  
oils, etc. Do not allow the welder or its components to be exposed to long periods of direct sunlight.  
7. In case of maintenance or repair, use only a qualified repair technician.
