Thank you for purchasing this latest model MIG/MAG/MMA welding machine by
Stamos Germany. Please read these instructions carefully before use to achieve the
best results.
GENERAL SAFETY WARNINGS
Device
The welding equipment for manual arc welding with automatic wire feed allows the
joining of metal parts through a melting process of the edges to be joined and the
filler metal. Melting is caused by the arc, which is formed between the material to be
welded and the metal wire continuously emerging from the end of the burner. Metal
wire serves as a filler material for the connection of the parts. Higher welding cur-
rent allows welding of bigger plates. For damages resulting from failure to comply
with these instructions, no liability is accepted..
General Safety
If you have doubts on connecting and operating with this device, please contact the
manufacturer.
The user must read this manual carefully before first use of the device.
Duty Cycler
Duty cycle is a welding equipment specification which defines the number of mi-
nutes, within a 10 minute period, during which a given welder can safely produce a
particular welding current. For example, a 200 amp welder with a 60% duty cycle
must be "rested" for at least 4 minutes after 6 minutes of continuous welding with
200 amp..
Work Area Precautions
1.
Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered benches and dark areas invite
accidents.
2.
Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence
of flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite
the dust or fumes.
3.
Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating a power tool. Dis-
tractions can cause you to lose control. Protect others in the work area from
debris such as chips and sparks. Provide barriers or shields as needed.
Electrical Safety
1.
Grounded tools must be plugged into an outlet properly installed and ground-
ed in accordance with all codes and ordinances. Never remove the grounding
prong or modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs. Check with
a qualified electrician if you are in doubt whether the outlet is properly groun-
ded. If the tool should electrically malfunction or break down, grounding provi-
des a low resistance path to carry electricity away from the user.

2.
Double insulated tools are equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is wi
der than the other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the
plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit,
contact a qualified electrician to install a polarized outlet. Do not change the
plug in any way. Double insulation eliminates the need for the three wire
grounded power cord and grounded power supply system.
3.
Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges,
and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is
grounded.
4.
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a
power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
5.
Do not abuse the Power Cord. Never use the Power Cord to carry the tool
or pull the Plug from an outlet. Keep the Power Cord away from heat, oil,
sharp edges, or moving parts. Replace damaged Power Cords immediately.
Damaged Power Cords increase the risk of electric shock.
6.
When operating a power tool outside, sue an outdoor extension cord mar-
ker "WA" or "W". These extension cords are rated for outdoor use, and
reduce the risk of electric shock.
Personal Safety
1.
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.
2.
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.
3.
Avoid accidental staring. Be sure the Power Switch is off before plugging in.
Carrying power tools with your finger on the Power Switch, or plugging in po-
wer tools with the Power Switch on, invites accidents.
4.
Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the power tool on. A
wrench or a key that is left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may
result in personal injury.
5.
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.
6.
Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Dust mask, non-skid safety
shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must be used for appropriate conditions.
Tool Use and Care
1.
Use clamps (not included) or other practical ways to secure and support the
workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work piece by hand ro against your
body is unstable and may lead to loss of control.
